Is it time for condensation diagnosis and fixes?

  • Drips after cooking, showers or drying clothes
  • Black mould at the base of the lantern lining
  • Wet window sills elsewhere in the house too

What usually causes it?

Cold surfaces

Older glass, uninsulated kerbs and un-thermally-broken frames stay cold and collect condensation.

Poor ventilation

Without trickle vents, extraction or an opening vent, moist air has nowhere to go.

About Bangor, Gwynedd and the LL57 area

Western and upland parts of the UK get more rain and more wind-driven rain than the east, and that's what finds weak cappings and blocked eaves first. Lanterns here benefit from a check of the bars on the most exposed face and a clear eaves channel before winter.

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.

Do you need permission in Wales?

In Wales, 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 (as applied in Wales), so we set out the route in writing first. Listed buildings in Wales need listed building consent from the local planning authority for alterations, with Cadw guidance on historic buildings; check with the council before changing a lantern on a listed property.
