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.

Do you repair the whole flat roof?

We repair the area around the lantern. If the wider roof is failing we'll tell you and can quote, but we won't push a new roof if a local repair will do.

Repairs are colour-matched as closely as possible, but new topcoat next to weathered topcoat can look slightly different at first.

All of Bedfordshire, including Bedford, Luton, Dunstable, Leighton Buzzard, Ampthill. Rural and remote addresses are covered by arrangement.
