Planning and building regulations in Essex

England's Approved Document L caps the U-value of new or replacement rooflights in existing homes at 2.2 W/m²K, calculated with the glass horizontal.

Planning-wise, a lantern on a new extension is judged as part of that extension, while one added to an existing roof can fall outside permitted development if it stands more than 150 mm proud.

Building regulations 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.

White roof lanterns in Essex: questions

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.

Is white cheaper?

White is a stock colour, so it costs the same as the other stock colours.

Which white matches uPVC windows?

Gloss white, often RAL 9016, is usually closest. Send us a photo of your windows if you are unsure.

Who checks building regulations for a lantern in Essex?

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.
