In Bridgend, as everywhere, the eaves beam is the frame around the base of a lantern, and most designs have a drainage channel inside it that lets water out through small weep slots. Send photos and we'll tell you what we think has failed.

Wet leaves and moss being cleared from the eaves channel at the base of a roof lantern

Is it time for eaves beam and gutter repairs?

  • Water at the corners after heavy rain
  • Moss, leaves or grit visible along the base
  • Standing water in the eaves channel

What usually causes it?

Blocked weep slots

Debris settles at the eaves and blocks the outlets, so the channel fills and overflows inward.

Trees and moss

Lanterns near trees fill with leaves every autumn and need regular clearing.

Covering Bridgend and nearby

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.

We also cover nearby Porthcawl (6 miles), Cowbridge (7 miles), Llantwit Major (8 miles).

How much should it cost?

Guide price for eaves beam and gutter repairs: £175–£395 ex VAT (£210–£474 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 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.
