Aluminium lanterns are strong and slim, but they still rely on gaskets, cappings and seals that wear. Send photos from Stroud (GL5) and we'll tell you which it is — with the price agreed in writing before any work.

What you might be seeing

  • Leaks at bars or ridge
  • Cappings lifted or rattling
  • Misted units

What usually causes it?

Worn gaskets

Gaskets do the weatherproofing; they harden and shrink with age.

Finish damage

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

Covering Stroud 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.

Stroud is around 8 miles from Gloucester, and both are within our Gloucestershire coverage.

Close by, we also cover Gloucester (8 miles), Cirencester (10 miles), Cheltenham (12 miles).

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.
