In Haddington, as everywhere, commercial lanterns and atrium rooflights fail in the same ways as domestic ones, but access, safety and disruption matter more. Send photos and we'll tell you what we think has failed.
What you might be seeing
- Leaks into trading or office areas
- Multiple lanterns on one roof needing a programme
- Managed buildings with planned maintenance needs
Why it happens
Scale
More lanterns, more joints, more drainage to block.
Deferred maintenance
Leaks appear when maintenance has slipped.
Covering Haddington and nearby
Freeze-thaw cycles open up tired sealant and gaskets faster than mild weather does. A spring check after a hard winter catches most problems before they leak.
In built-up areas, access is often the hardest part of the job — through the house, over a neighbour's roof, or with parking restrictions. We plan access in advance and price any tower or scaffold into the quote.
We cover Haddington as part of Edinburgh and the Lothians, about 16 miles from Edinburgh.
Close by, we also cover North Berwick (7 miles), Musselburgh (10 miles), Dalkeith (12 miles).
How much should it cost?
Most commercial roof lantern repairs jobs come in between £495 and £2,995 ex VAT (£594–£3,594 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 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.
