Glasgow and the Clyde
Roof lanterns and rooflights for rear extensions in Glasgow and the Clyde
Lanterns, flat rooflights and walk-on glass that bring light deep into the plan. Across Glasgow and the Clyde we handle the whole rear extension: survey, drawings, the planning route, building control and the build. Towns we cover here include Glasgow, Paisley and Greenock.
Rear extensions in Glasgow and the Clyde gain most from a rooflight placed against the old back wall, where the room would otherwise be darkest. Post-war semis and terraces are common around Glasgow and the Clyde, and many have room for a single-storey rear extension within Class 1A limits.
