Signs you need 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.

About Carshalton and the SM5 area

Even in drier areas, one heavy downpour with blocked eaves is enough to overflow a lantern indoors. Clearing the eaves channel is the simplest prevention there is.

Across London, many lanterns sit on rear extensions with access only through the house, so we protect floors and plan the work to keep time indoors to a minimum. Parking and any permits are factored into the quote.

We cover Carshalton as part of Greater London, about 9 miles from Westminster.

Close by, we also cover Wallington (1 mile), Sutton (2 miles), Mitcham (2 miles).

Guide prices for flat roof junction and flashing repairs in Carshalton

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

Most flat roof junction and flashing repairs jobs come in between £245 and £695 ex VAT (£294–£834 including 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?

Most lantern repairs in England need no approval at all. Where a job turns into a replacement, the Building Regulations 2010 apply and we confirm how the work will be signed off before we start. 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.
