Commercial lanterns and atrium rooflights fail in the same ways as domestic ones, but access, safety and disruption matter more. Send photos from Lanark (ML11) and we'll tell you which it is — with the price agreed in writing before any work.

Deferred maintenance
Leaks appear when maintenance has slipped.
Covering Lanark and nearby
Wind-driven rain is the real test of a roof lantern, and the wetter west sees plenty of it. Leaks that appear only in a storm from one direction usually point to the cappings or eaves on that face — a useful clue when you send us photos.
Lanark is around 12 miles from Hamilton, and both are within our Lanarkshire coverage.
Neighbouring places we cover include Wishaw (8 miles), Motherwell (11 miles), Hamilton (12 miles).
Guide prices for commercial roof lantern repairs in Lanark
Typical range: £495–£2,995 ex VAT, which is £594–£3,594 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 Scotland?
Straightforward repairs — resealing, gaskets, cappings, eaves and like-for-like parts — don't normally need building regulations approval in Scotland. Replacing the whole lantern or enlarging the opening is different and falls under the Building (Scotland) Regulations 2004; we confirm in writing which route applies before any replacement. 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.
