Missing trims

Without a trim or flashing to protect the top edge, water gets in behind the membrane.

Roof lanterns in Winsford

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.

From Chester to Winsford is roughly 15 miles — all part of the Cheshire area we cover.

Neighbouring places we cover include Northwich (5 miles), Crewe (7 miles), Congleton (13 miles).

How much should it cost?

Guide price, per lantern£245–£695 ex VAT£294–£834 inc VAT

Guide price for flat roof junction and flashing repairs: £245–£695 ex VAT (£294–£834 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?

Straightforward repairs — resealing, gaskets, cappings, eaves and like-for-like parts — don't normally need building regulations approval in England. Replacing the whole lantern or enlarging the opening is different and falls under the Building Regulations 2010; we confirm in writing which route applies before any replacement. 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.
