We carry out aluminium roof lantern repairs in Bordon and across the GU35 area. Aluminium lanterns are strong and slim, but they still rely on gaskets, cappings and seals that wear.

Is it time for aluminium roof lantern repairs?
- Leaks at bars or ridge
- Chalky or chipped powder coat
- Misted units
Why it happens
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 Bordon and nearby
Even in drier areas, one heavy downpour with blocked eaves is enough to overflow a lantern indoors. Clearing the eaves channel is the simplest prevention there is.
We cover Bordon as part of Hampshire, about 28 miles from Southampton.

What should you expect to pay in Bordon?
Typical range: £195–£695 ex VAT, which is £234–£834 with 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?
Straightforward repairs — resealing, gaskets, cappings, eaves and like-for-like parts — don't normally need building regulations approval in England. Replacing the whole lantern or enlarging the opening is different and falls under the Building Regulations 2010; we confirm in writing which route applies before any replacement. 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.
