Roof Lantern Extension Ideas

We have all seen the stunning roof lantern that is featured in all the home improvement magazines and TV Shows. Even from a picture, they create a ‘wow factor’, and even before we have considered any other benefit, we instantly want one. Constructed from four panes of glass, our uPVC and aluminium roof lanterns in Essex sit on a flat roof extension.

Where you place your roof lantern is entirely up to you. However, think about your space. Do you want to have a dramatic skylight over your kitchen island? Or do you want to be able to create a striking focal point of your dining table? For larger modern extensions, you could even have two smaller roof lanterns in your Essex home. However, when it comes to designing your roof lantern extension, size really matters! If your roof lantern is too large, it could end up looking out of proportion, and a bit overwhelming, too small and it could end up looking out of place. Here at Chigwell Window Centre, our experts can advise the best positioning and design of roof lanterns to perfectly suit your Essex home.

    FAQs

    Are Roof Lanterns Noisy When it Rains?

    A frequent worry with roof lanterns is if they make noise in your Essex home when it rains. However, an effective design reduces the levels of noise from rain and other external noise! The more glass panes utilised in the design of our roof lanterns, the lower amount of external noise there is in your Essex home. The more distance between the glass panes, the better the sound insulation will be. Denser glass panes will also help in decreasing the overall noise levels.

    Does a Roof Lantern Need Planning Permission?

    Typically, you do not need planning permission to install roof lanterns as long as permitted development regulations in Essex are followed. These are…

    • Roof lanterns must not be 150mm above the sloping plane of the existing roof
    • Roof lanterns must be no higher than the highest part of the roof
    • Roof lanterns positioned in a side elevation roof slope must use obscure glazing
    • No roof openings are allowed, except if the height is at least 1.7m above the floor
