Condensation forms when warm, humid air meets a cold surface — and a roof lantern is the coldest surface in many kitchens. We carry out condensation diagnosis and fixes across Warwickshire, with a guide price from your photos and a fixed price in writing before any work starts.

Condensation droplets on the inside of roof lantern glass on a cold morning

Signs you need condensation diagnosis and fixes

  • Water on the inside of the glass on cold mornings, even without rain
  • Black mould at the base of the lantern lining
  • Wet window sills elsewhere in the house too

What usually causes it?

High humidity

Cooking, kettles, showers, drying washing and people all add moisture to the air.

Poor ventilation

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

Roof lanterns in Warwickshire

Lanterns in central England see a bit of everything — summer sun that ages seals and end caps, autumn leaf fall that blocks eaves, and frosty mornings that bring condensation. A yearly check covers all three.

What should you expect to pay for condensation diagnosis and fixes in Warwickshire?

Guide price, per visit£145–£495 ex VAT£174–£594 inc VAT

Most condensation diagnosis and fixes jobs come in between £145 and £495 ex VAT (£174–£594 including VAT), per visit. 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.

Condensation diagnosis and fixes in Warwickshire: questions

Will new glass stop condensation?

Better glass raises the inner surface temperature and helps, but if the room is very humid, ventilation matters more. We'll tell you which will make the bigger difference.

Is condensation in a lantern normal?

Occasional light condensation on very cold mornings can be. Regular dripping isn't, and can damage linings and cause mould.

Which towns in Warwickshire do you cover?

All of Warwickshire, including Warwick, Nuneaton, Rugby, Leamington Spa, Bedworth, Stratford-upon-Avon. Rural and remote addresses are covered by arrangement.
