We carry out aluminium roof lantern repairs in Fleet and across the GU51 area. Aluminium lanterns are strong and slim, but they still rely on gaskets, cappings and seals that wear.
What you might be seeing
- Leaks at bars or ridge
- Chalky or chipped powder coat
- Misted units
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 Fleet 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.
From Southampton to Fleet is roughly 36 miles — all part of the Hampshire area we cover.
Neighbouring places we cover include Farnborough (3 miles), Aldershot (4 miles), Yateley (4 miles).
How much should it cost?
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?
Most lantern repairs in England need no approval at all. Where a job turns into a replacement, the Building Regulations 2010 apply and we confirm how the work will be signed off before we start. 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.
