  • Leaks at bars or ridge

Common causes we find

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.

Guide price, per lantern£195–£695 ex VAT£234–£834 inc VAT

Most aluminium roof lantern repairs jobs come in between £195 and £695 ex VAT (£234–£834 including 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.
