Straightforward repairs — resealing, gaskets, cappings, eaves and like-for-like parts — don't normally need building regulations approval in Wales. Replacing the whole lantern or enlarging the opening is different and falls under the Building Regulations 2010 (as applied in Wales); we confirm in writing which route applies before any replacement. Listed buildings in Wales need listed building consent from the local planning authority for alterations, with Cadw guidance on historic buildings; check with the council before changing a lantern on a listed property.
