We carry out aluminium roof lantern repairs in Lurgan and across the BT66 area. Aluminium lanterns are strong and slim, but they still rely on gaskets, cappings and seals that wear.
Signs you need aluminium roof lantern repairs
- Cappings lifted or rattling
- Misted units
- Corrosion at cut edges or fixings in coastal areas
Common causes we find
Worn gaskets
Gaskets do the weatherproofing; they harden and shrink with age.
Thermal movement
Aluminium moves with temperature; seals and fixings take the strain.
Roof lanterns in Lurgan
Western and upland parts of the UK get more rain and more wind-driven rain than the east, and that's what finds weak cappings and blocked eaves first. Lanterns here benefit from a check of the bars on the most exposed face and a clear eaves channel before winter.
Lurgan is around 16 miles from Armagh, and both are within our County Armagh coverage.

Guide prices for aluminium roof lantern repairs in Lurgan

Do you need permission in Northern Ireland?
Straightforward repairs — resealing, gaskets, cappings, eaves and like-for-like parts — don't normally need building regulations approval in Northern Ireland. Replacing the whole lantern or enlarging the opening is different and falls under the Building Regulations (Northern Ireland) 2012; we confirm in writing which route applies before any replacement. Listed buildings in Northern Ireland need listed building consent from the council for alterations; check with the council's planning service before changing a lantern on a listed property.
