Built for Herne Bay homes

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, Faversham, Deal and Westerham and every corner of Kent. Surveys and quotes are free, with a response within 1 working hour on every enquiry.

Timber Roof Lanterns in Herne Bay — common questions

How long does a bespoke timber lantern take?

Typically 6–10 weeks from approved drawings to delivery, depending on workshop schedules and finish. We'll confirm the programme before you commit.

Are timber roof lanterns high maintenance?

Far less than they used to be. Accoya and engineered hardwood with factory microporous finishes typically need recoating every 8–10 years rather than the constant attention old softwood demanded.

Will a timber lantern get listed building consent?

Timber is usually the material conservation officers want to see on listed properties. We supply scaled section drawings and specification documents to support your consent application.

What is Accoya and why use it?

Accoya is acetylated timber — wood modified at a cellular level for stability and rot resistance, carrying a 50-year above-ground warranty. It holds paint beautifully and barely moves with the seasons.

Can I book installation in Herne Bay?

We do. Herne Bay and the surrounding Kent towns are core territory for both our installation teams and our supply-only delivery routes.

How quickly can you quote for a Herne Bay project?

For Herne Bay: 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.
