We carry out commercial roof lantern repairs in Norwich and across the NR2 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
- Multiple lanterns on one roof needing a programme
- Insurance or landlord requirement for a report
Why it happens
Scale
More lanterns, more joints, more drainage to block.
Access
Roof access, edge protection and permits all affect the plan.
Covering Norwich and nearby
Even in drier areas, one heavy downpour with blocked eaves is enough to overflow a lantern indoors. Clearing the eaves channel is the simplest prevention there is.
Near the coast, salt in the air is hard on aluminium finishes and fixings; washing the frame occasionally and touching in chips keeps corrosion away.
If you're just outside Norwich, we also cover Great Yarmouth (18 miles), Lowestoft (22 miles), Thetford (27 miles).
What should you expect to pay in Norwich?
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 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.
