Worn gaskets

Thermal movement
Aluminium moves with temperature; seals and fixings take the strain.
Covering Northwich and nearby
Wind-driven rain is the real test of a roof lantern, and the wetter west sees plenty of it. Leaks that appear only in a storm from one direction usually point to the cappings or eaves on that face — a useful clue when you send us photos.
From Chester to Northwich is roughly 16 miles — all part of the Cheshire area we cover.

Guide prices for aluminium roof lantern repairs in Northwich
Guide price for aluminium roof lantern repairs: £195–£695 ex VAT (£234–£834 inc VAT), per lantern. Towers or scaffold, where needed, are priced into the quote. Your fixed price is confirmed in writing before any work starts.
Do you need permission in England?
In England, like-for-like repairs to a roof lantern don't usually involve building control. A full replacement or a bigger opening is controlled under the Building Regulations 2010, so we set out the route in writing first. 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.
