Why this suits Essex
A lantern puts daylight into the middle of a plan where a window cannot reach — the usual answer on the single-storey rear extensions common in Essex.
Interwar and postwar suburban semis, Victorian terraces, and heavy modern estate growth. Estuarine and North Sea exposure on the east, sheltered suburbia in the west. The failure that tends to come first is Shrinkable London Clay causing movement, and salt loading near the estuary — worth knowing before you decide between repairing what you have and replacing it.
Clay movement is real across much of the county — measure at order, not months ahead. Order to the structural opening, measured in three places, smallest figure wins. How to measure properly.

Roof lanterns in Essex — questions
How long does delivery to Essex take?
About a week from order for standard products in standard finishes, then 2–3 working days once made for the run to Essex. Special RAL colours and made-to-measure joinery take longer, and you get a firm date before you pay.
Do you install in Essex?
Installation is available and quoted as a separate line, so you can see exactly what the fitting costs against the product. The product still arrives on the supply-only lead time; the fitting date depends on the diary.
What size do I order to?
The structural opening — brick to brick, lintel to cill. Measure in three places and use the smallest figure. Do not take a fitting tolerance off yourself; that is done at our end.
What usually needs replacing in Essex?
Shrinkable London Clay causing movement, and salt loading near the estuary. That is the pattern across most of the county, though an individual property can differ.
Can I get a price without giving you my details?
Prices are published on the product pages with an inc and ex VAT switch. For your exact sizes we need to price it, but you can see the range before you speak to anyone.
