Roof Lanterns & Skylights in Cowplain
Cowplain customers looking for roof lanterns & skylights turn to Aperture Windows & Doors Ltd. A roof lantern sits proud of a flat or low-pitch roof to introduce overhead daylight into a room that wall-mounted windows alone cannot adequately illuminate. The difference in light levels between a room served only by side windows and the same room with a central roof lantern is significant — overhead glazing captures direct sky light across the full day rather than only during the hours when the sun falls on the relevant elevation. Aperture Windows & Doors fits aluminium roof lanterns and flat-roof skylights across Hampshire and West Sussex, from compact single skylights above kitchen extensions to large ridge lanterns over orangery-style rear rooms. All our lanterns use thermally-broken aluminium bars and sealed double-glazed units as standard. Cowplain is a large residential suburb immediately north of Waterlooville with extensive 1970s and 80s estate housing — Stakes Road, Hawthorn Crescent and Lovedean Lane are typical of streets where original factory double-glazing from the 1980s is now overdue for replacement. The suburb sits at the foot of the South Downs escarpment and many properties have open rear aspects facing the downland, giving them greater weather exposure than the more sheltered urban fabric to the south.

Roof Lanterns & Skylights in Cowplain — FAQ
A rooflight sits flush with the roof surface (or near-flush) and is typically used on pitched roofs. A roof lantern projects above the roof plane on a raised kerb, creating a three-dimensional glazed structure above a flat or near-flat roof. Lanterns introduce significantly more light than a flush rooflight of the same footprint because light enters from the sides of the lantern as well as through the top.
In most cases, yes — provided the flat roof is structurally sound and the ceiling height in the room below allows for the lantern to be installed without impacting headroom. We will assess the structural suitability at your free survey. Any required structural modifications are discussed and costed before work begins.
