Questions from Wick
Will white uPVC yellow over time?
Modern uPVC profiles are UV-stabilised and should stay white with normal cleaning. Very old lanterns, especially with polycarbonate panels, are the ones that discolour.
Can I get a grey uPVC lantern?
Some ranges offer foiled colours. The choice is narrower than aluminium.
Who checks building regulations for a lantern in Wick?
Your local authority building standards (verifier) service. For a lantern in a new extension it forms part of the extension's approval; replacements in existing homes have their own rules.
