Planning and building regulations for Swanage
For homes in England, a new or replacement rooflight should achieve a U-value of 2.2 W/m²K or better in the horizontal position, under Approved Document L.
On a permitted development extension the lantern counts towards the extension's height; on an existing roof, a rooflight projecting more than 150 mm may need planning permission.
Building regulations in Swanage are checked by your local authority building control team or a registered building control approver. Replacing a rooflight in an existing home is building work. Installers registered with a competent person scheme can self-certify; otherwise building control must be involved.

Questions from Swanage
Can I have white inside and anthracite outside?
Yes, that is one of the most common combinations.
Does a white lantern show dirt?
Outside, white shows dirt more than grey. Self-cleaning glass helps with the glass, and the frames benefit from an occasional wash.
Who checks building regulations for a lantern in Swanage?
Your local authority building control team or a registered building control approver. For a lantern in a new extension it forms part of the extension's approval; replacements in existing homes have their own rules.
