We carry out flat roof junction and flashing repairs in Romford and across the RM1 area. The junction where the flat roof covering meets the lantern kerb is a weak point on many extensions.
Is it time for flat roof junction and flashing repairs?
- Leak near the lantern but not from the frame
- Splits, blisters or lifted edges in the roof covering by the kerb
- Ponding on the roof next to the lantern
What usually causes it?
Unbonded membrane
EPDM or single-ply that has come away from the kerb lets water run behind it.
Cracked GRP
Fibreglass roofs can crack at the kerb corner where movement concentrates.
Covering Romford and nearby
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.
London's extensions are often tight to neighbouring walls and roofs. Where a repair needs access over a neighbour's property, we'll tell you in advance so you can arrange it.

What should you expect to pay in Romford?
Typical range: £245–£695 ex VAT, which is £294–£834 with 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?
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.
