Lantern roofs are an excellent method to bring natural light into an orangery or flat roof expansion. Lantern roofs are contemporary, cost-effective, and quick and simple to install. As a result, lantern roofs are an excellent alternative for any home remodelling project.
Lantern roof applications
Lantern roofs can be used in a variety of ways on your home improvement/extension project. Lantern roofs are most commonly used for:
Adding lantern roofs to an existing flat roof expansion to allow natural light to enter from above.
The incorporation of lantern roofs into a new flat roof expansion
Incorporating lantern roofs into an orangery
Including a lantern roof in a landing’s ceiling area
We are confident that you will enjoy the amount of natural light that your lantern roof will bring into the room below, regardless of where you choose to install it. This will illuminate previously dark areas of your home, making them feel light, bright, and spacious. Not only will the room with the lantern roofs benefit from natural light, but so will any neighbouring rooms.
If your addition, orangery, or landing is large enough, you may wish to install two lantern roofs. When numerous lantern roofs are placed side by side, they not only look beautiful but also let in twice as much light.
Here are the top five reasons why lantern roofs are an excellent method to add natural light to your room:
Lantern roofs let in natural light into the room below. If you have a flat roof expansion or are constructing an orangery, lantern roofs are an excellent way to enhance daylight. Ultraframe’s Ultrasky Lantern Roof has a basic design with 25% fewer bars than conventional lantern roofs. This implies more glass and fewer bars, which means more light in the space below.
Lantern roofs complement both modern and traditional architecture. Lantern roofs will look great in any setting, whether it’s a traditional orangery or an ultra-modern flat roof expansion. This is due to the fact that lantern roofs are so simple in design that they lend themselves to both styles. As a result, lantern roofs are an extremely adaptable product.
Lantern roofs are a low-cost option to update an existing room. If you have a dark and dreary flat roof extension or corridor that could benefit from more daylight, roof lamps are an excellent solution. Roof lanterns may entirely change an existing room for less than £5000, but some home improvement projects can cost tens of thousands of pounds. This is a low budget for something that will benefit your home greatly. Of course, the cost may vary depending on the size and specifications of your lantern roofs, as well as the complexity of the installation, but lantern roofs are an excellent value for money alternative for bringing natural light into your house.
Will roof lanterns add value to my home? Roof lanterns will, in fact, boost the value of your home. This is because anything that adds more light to your property will increase its worth. Natural light makes any room appear larger and more appealing. Both of these qualities will increase the value of your home. Roof lanterns will not only raise the value of your home, but they will also increase its saleability. This is because most house buyers want a home that is full with natural light.
Roof lanterns are simple to install. A roof lantern is one of the simplest home improvement projects that will have a significant influence on your property. Most roof lights can be installed in a single day. This means that there will be little clutter or interruption in your home, and your new light-filled home will be ready to move into promptly.
As you can see, there are a variety of reasons why roof lanterns are an excellent method to bring natural light into your orangery or extension. Aside from the benefits outlined above, roof lanterns are also extremely energy efficient. This means that your orangery or flat roof expansion will be a warm and welcoming room to enjoy throughout the year. It also implies that your energy bills will remain the same or possibly reduce!
