Around Prestwich and the wider county, housing stock runs to red-brick terraces and 1930s semis where flat-roof kitchen extensions dominate, with growing demand for slim aluminium lanterns on contemporary builds. We've specified and supplied for exactly these property types across Greater Manchester, so recommendations come from real local precedent.
Every lantern is thermally broken aluminium as standard, glazed with 28mm argon-filled units, and available with self-clean and solar-control coatings. Supply-only orders include kerb specifications and fitting documentation; installed projects carry our written workmanship guarantee on top of the 10-year product cover.
Prestwich, Eccles, Hyde and Urmston and the rest of Greater Manchester all sit inside standard coverage: free surveys, free quotes, and a response within 1 working hour.

A 150mm minimum upstand is the standard requirement. It lifts the lantern clear of standing water on the flat roof and gives the flashing somewhere to dress. If your upstand isn't built yet, we'll supply the exact external kerb dimensions so your builder can form it ready for the lantern.
A correctly installed modern lantern shouldn't leak. Failures almost always trace back to the upstand or flashing rather than the lantern itself, which is why our installation teams dress and seal the junction as part of every fit, and why supply-only orders ship with full fitting instructions.
Yes — thermally broken frames and argon-filled units mean a modern lantern performs far better than the polycarbonate roofs people remember. With a solar-control upgrade the room stays comfortable in summer too.
Most single-lantern installations are completed in a day once the upstand is ready. Larger or multiple-lantern projects typically run one to two days including flashing and internal making good.
We do. Prestwich and the surrounding Greater Manchester towns are core territory for both our installation teams and our supply-only delivery routes.
For Prestwich: same-day made-to-measure quotes, standard sizes delivering in around 7–10 working days, and installation slots booked to suit once the survey's done.
