Questions from Castleford
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.
Is uPVC heavier?
Weight is dominated by the glass, so the difference is small.
Do I need planning permission for a roof lantern in Castleford?
Often not, but it depends on the roof, the property and whether it is listed or in a conservation area. Check with your district, borough or unitary council before ordering.
