What you might be seeing

  • Leaks at bars or ridge
  • Chalky or chipped powder coat

Common causes we find

Worn gaskets

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

Thermal movement

Aluminium moves with temperature; seals and fixings take the strain.

Roof lanterns in Uppingham

Lanterns in central England see a bit of everything — summer sun that ages seals and end caps, autumn leaf fall that blocks eaves, and frosty mornings that bring condensation. A yearly check covers all three.

What should you expect to pay in Uppingham?

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

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.
