Like much of Kent, Herne Bay features weatherboard cottages, Victorian villas and a huge commuter-belt extension market — kitchen-diner lanterns are the signature project here. It's the kind of work our surveyors and fitting teams handle week in, week out across the South East region.
You get the same product either way — thermally broken aluminium, self-clean and solar-control glass options, made to the millimetre. The only choice is who fits it: your builder with our documentation, or our own nationwide teams.
Coverage takes in Herne Bay, Folkestone, Sevenoaks and Whitstable and every corner of Kent. Surveys and quotes are free, with a response within 1 working hour on every enquiry.

Tighter tolerances, structural glazing and higher-spec profiles all add manufacturing cost, and installation needs more care. It's the premium tier of the lantern market and priced accordingly.
