We carry out commercial roof lantern repairs in Carnoustie and across the DD7 area. Commercial lanterns and atrium rooflights fail in the same ways as domestic ones, but access, safety and disruption matter more.
What you might be seeing
- Leaks into trading or office areas
- Insurance or landlord requirement for a report
- Managed buildings with planned maintenance needs
Common causes we find
Scale
More lanterns, more joints, more drainage to block.
Access
Roof access, edge protection and permits all affect the plan.
Covering Carnoustie and nearby
Snow and ice sitting at the eaves can block a lantern's drainage and push water back under the glass as it melts. If your lantern leaks after a thaw rather than after rain, tell us — it points to the eaves and kerb.
Coastal wind drives rain hard against lanterns, so cappings and ridge seals on the seaward face take the most punishment.
Carnoustie is around 10 miles from Dundee, and both are within our Dundee and Angus coverage.
Close by, we also cover Arbroath (6 miles), Dundee (10 miles), St Andrews (12 miles).
How much should it cost?
Guide price for commercial roof lantern repairs: £495–£2,995 ex VAT (£594–£3,594 inc 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 Scotland?
In Scotland, 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 (Scotland) Regulations 2004, so we set out the route in writing first. Listed buildings in Scotland need listed building consent from the planning authority for alterations, with Historic Environment Scotland guidance; check before changing a lantern on a listed property.
