What you might be seeing

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

What usually causes it?

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.

Roof lanterns in Haywards Heath

Sun and UV do more damage than rain on many lanterns here: brittle ridge caps, chalky finishes and hardened gaskets. They're cheap to replace before they let water in.

Coastal wind drives rain hard against lanterns, so cappings and ridge seals on the seaward face take the most punishment.

Do you need permission in England?

In England, 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, so we set out the route in writing first. 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.
