Questions from Airdrie
Are uPVC lanterns as good as aluminium?
They do the same job at a lower price, with bulkier frames and fewer colour and size options. For most showpiece extensions aluminium is worth the extra.
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.
Do you deliver roof lanterns to Airdrie?
Yes. Delivery to Airdrie (ML6) is quoted for your exact postcode and confirmed in writing on your quote, together with the lead time.
Is it worth having solar-control glass in Airdrie?
With the midsummer sun about 57.6° high at noon, roof glass in Airdrie gets strong summer sun. Solar control is recommended for large or south-facing lanterns.
