Is it time for flat roof junction and flashing repairs?

  • Leak near the lantern but not from the frame
  • Missing or loose edge trims and flashings
  • Ponding on the roof next to the lantern

Why it happens

Unbonded membrane

EPDM or single-ply that has come away from the kerb lets water run behind it.

Missing trims

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

Covering Carnoustie and nearby

Snow and ice sitting at the eaves can block a lantern's drainage and push water back under the glass as it melts. If your lantern leaks after a thaw rather than after rain, tell us — it points to the eaves and kerb.

Coastal wind drives rain hard against lanterns, so cappings and ridge seals on the seaward face take the most punishment.

We cover Carnoustie as part of Dundee and Angus, about 10 miles from Dundee.
