Roof lanterns are an architectural element – not a light fixture – that can add appeal and value to any property. While the name might suggest something different, a roof lantern acts like a skylight. Made from aluminium or hardwood and glass, these rooftop windows allow in an incredible amount of natural light and can really brighten and open up a space.
A roof lantern can allow more light to pass through your kitchen, orangery, living room, dining area, bedroom or even your bathroom! No matter the style, size or location of your home, a roof lantern offers numerous functional and aesthetic benefits year-round.
Best of all, at Prestige Roof Lanterns, we use thin rafters to maximise the size of the glass panels, allowing more light to pass through the structure and into your home. All of our roof lanterns are made to measure and can be supplied in a wide variety of colours, wood stains or in a standard primer.

As we said, there are numerous functional and aesthetic benefits to having high-quality roof lights installed in your home.
Natural Light
A roof lantern will immediately illuminate your home with more natural light. Whether a smaller roof lantern is installed in a bathroom or a large roof lantern is installed in your living room, you’ll notice the difference. This natural light is warm, welcoming and can make your space feel cosy and comfortable year-round.
More Space
While a roof lantern won’t actually increase the square footage of your home or of an individual room, it will make your space feel bigger. With more natural light and a clear view outside, rooms seem to open up and appear big and airy.
Closer to the Outdoors
Imagine laying in bed or in the bath and looking up, through your glass rooflight, to see the moon and the stars. A roof lantern brings your closer to the outdoors and offers you the opportunity to enjoy stunning views of all four seasons from a different vantage point, all from the comfort of your own home.
Energy Efficient
With so much natural light, you’ll inevitably use your electricity less throughout the year. Some roof lanterns also open and close, allowing for increased cross ventilation. This is especially helpful during warmer months.
Aesthetics
You can fully customise the style, design, size, colour and materials used for your roof lantern. Our products can be made to match period homes and contemporary properties alike and we pride ourselves on being able to seamlessly integrate roof lanterns into existing properties. Often, it’s impossible to tell that they weren’t apart of the original construction!
Roof lanterns are a luxurious, timeless and beautiful addition to any home.
Added Value
With so many benefits, it’s easy to see how a roof lantern could add value to your home. If you’re trying to sell your property, you’ll attract quality buyers and be able to ask for a higher price. A roof lantern is most certainly an investment you’ll see a return on.[/vc_column_text][/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=”Customisation” tab_id=”1539252643644-c573b2c2-7df1″][vc_column_text]Customisation

Units are available single or triple glazed. There are also options for self-cleaning glass as well as solar control units.

Because we use a powder-coated aluminium capping system on the outside of our lanterns, there is very little timber exposed to the elements.
Timbers will periodically require sanding (only a light sanding to key the topcoat and allow new paint to stick) and repainting, but for many applications, this will only be required every five years. When properly maintained our roof lanterns should last several decades.
Please contact us for our full maintenance guidelines and guarantees.[/vc_column_text][/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=”Weatherproofing” tab_id=”1539252861750-2f0205c0-ec88″][vc_column_text]Weatherproofing
Rubber weatherproofing gaskets sit on top of the hips, rafters and eaves beams of our roof lanterns, with the glass sitting on top of them. There is an aluminium capping system which then sits on top of the glass – with more rubber gaskets – that is screwed down to hold the glass and capping in place. This twin-gasket system ensures that, when properly installed, any water which gets past the outer gaskets falls onto the inner gaskets and drains out at the bottom of the roof pitch.
In short: it is almost impossible for the roof to leak.[/vc_column_text][/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=”Contact us” tab_id=”1539252893279-1597f364-9d5f”][vc_column_text]If you’re looking for a made-to-measure aluminum, oak or timber roof lantern at an affordable price, contact Prestige Roof Lanterns today.

Today, bespoke – or custom – roof lanterns are found throughout many modern and traditional-style buildings throughout the UK.[/vc_toggle][vc_toggle title=”What are the advantages of having a bespoke lantern or rooflight?”]The primary benefit of installation of a bespoke roof lanterns is that it can be tailored to suit any structural specifications as well as any parameters in terms of design, colour and other defining features.
