Roof Lanterns in St Albans
Korniche roof lanterns flood flat-roof extensions and kitchen diners with natural light from above. Korniche's pre-tensioned frame and sealed glazing go in quickly, and the reduced-width ridge and rafters put more glass overhead than a conventional lantern.

Roof Lanterns in St Albans
Korniche roof lanterns are a popular addition to kitchen extensions on St Albans’s Georgian and period properties, flooding flat-roof spaces with natural light from above. Within the St Albans Conservation Area, roof lanterns are generally acceptable on single-storey rear extensions as permitted development, provided they do not extend more than 150mm above the existing roof plane. The reduced-width ridge and rafters put more glass overhead than a conventional lantern, and custom seals encase every glass unit across the AL1, AL2, AL3 postcodes. All glass is self-cleaning as standard, and solar-control options are particularly popular on south-facing St Albans kitchen extensions. We survey St Albans homes near St Albans Cathedral and Verulamium Park and across the surrounding streets. Properties inside the St Albans Conservation Area need St Albans City and District Council approval for replacement glazing. We handle that liaison as part of every quote.
