Add light to your Surrey home with a roof lantern
Bringing natural light into your home can make it look more open, and can transform your property into a bright, warm and appealing living space. It can also help you save electricity and energy, as you’re not as reliant on artificial lighting and heating. A practical and effective way of maximising the natural light in your home is to install a traditional skylight – as well as being space efficient, it balances the light in the room throughout the day.
If you’re looking for something a little more ornate, a roof lantern is a beautiful alternative to the traditional skylight, combining high performance with an aesthetically pleasing structural design. It can be customised to match the character and period of your property and, unlike the discreet skylight, is designed to be eye-catching and visually impressive.
Your roof lantern can be custom-made to your specifications
The best thing about a roof lantern is that you can decide on exactly how you’d like it to look. If you own an Edwardian-style property, for example, then your roof lantern can be expertly customised to emulate 20th-century architecture. It can be designed to cover the entire roof space, or simply a small section, and can be made using timber, uPVC or aluminium.
The strong structure can help you retain light and heat
Roof lanterns are architecturally strong, secure, energy efficient and environmentally friendly. Fully sealed and fitted with high-performance insulated glass, they can help eliminate draughts and prevent heat loss in your home. The natural light and warmth that the roof lantern allows into the room can also help you save on energy usage and costs, providing you with a really practical, easy and attractive way to retain light and heat within your home.
Roof lanterns look beautiful from the inside and the outside
We build bespoke roof lights of all sizes
The skilled craftsmanship that goes into making your classic roof lantern means that it looks exceptional from all angles – whether you’re standing inside or outside your property. The intricate design details in the roof lantern’s exterior are unique, and the play of light that the pitched structure creates inside the property is truly charming. Light furnishings and the addition of polished glass items or mirrors within a room can enhance the effect of a roof lantern even further – helping you create a room that is glowing with natural light.
