In Strabane, as everywhere, aluminium lanterns are strong and slim, but they still rely on gaskets, cappings and seals that wear. Send photos and we'll tell you what we think has failed.

What you might be seeing

  • Leaks at bars or ridge
  • Cappings lifted or rattling
  • Corrosion at cut edges or fixings in coastal areas

Why it happens

Thermal movement

Aluminium moves with temperature; seals and fixings take the strain.

Finish damage

Scratches and chips expose bare metal; coastal air speeds up corrosion.

Covering Strabane 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 Omagh to Strabane is roughly 17 miles — all part of the County Tyrone area we cover.
