Aluminium lanterns are strong and slim, but they still rely on gaskets, cappings and seals that wear. Send photos from Tredegar (NP22) 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
  • Chalky or chipped powder coat
  • 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.

Finish damage

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

Covering Tredegar 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.

Tredegar is around 17 miles from Newport, Gwent, and both are within our Gwent coverage.

We also cover nearby Ebbw Vale (2 miles), Merthyr Tydfil (6 miles), Blackwood (7 miles).

Do you need permission in Wales?

In Wales, 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 (as applied in Wales), so we set out the route in writing first. Listed buildings in Wales need listed building consent from the local planning authority for alterations, with Cadw guidance on historic buildings; check with the council before changing a lantern on a listed property.
