Covering West Bridgford and nearby
Most inland lantern leaks aren't storm damage; they're usually tired sealant, a lifted capping or blocked eaves drainage. All three are quick to find and fix once you know where to look.

Do you need permission?
Straightforward repairs — resealing, gaskets, cappings, eaves and like-for-like parts — don't normally need building regulations approval in England. Replacing the whole lantern or enlarging the opening is different and falls under the Building Regulations 2010; we confirm in writing which route applies before any replacement. Listed buildings need listed building consent from the local council for alterations, and conservation areas can have extra controls; like-for-like repairs are treated differently from changes, so check with the council's conservation officer first.
Roof lantern repairs in West Bridgford: questions
How do I get a price for roof lantern repairs in West Bridgford?
Send a few photos of the lantern and the problem, with your West Bridgford postcode. We'll reply with a guide price and tell you whether a visit is needed before we can fix the price.
Do you need to visit to price roof lantern repairs?
Not always. Clear photos are often enough for a guide price. Where the cause isn't obvious, a visit to inspect and water-test is charged from £145 ex VAT, confirmed before we come.
Can you repair a lantern someone else installed in West Bridgford?
Yes. We repair lanterns whoever fitted them. If yours is still under the installer's warranty, contact them first so you don't affect it.
