Planning and building regulations for Lowestoft
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.
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 in Lowestoft 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 Lowestoft
Which white matches uPVC windows?
Gloss white, often RAL 9016, is usually closest. Send us a photo of your windows if you are unsure.
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 it worth having solar-control glass in Lowestoft?
With the midsummer sun about 61.0° high at noon, roof glass in Lowestoft gets strong summer sun. Solar control is recommended for large or south-facing lanterns.
Who checks building regulations for a lantern in Lowestoft?
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.
