The junction where the flat roof covering meets the lantern kerb is a weak point on many extensions. Send photos from Coatbridge (ML5) and we'll tell you which it is — with the price agreed in writing before any work.
Signs you need 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
- Missing or loose edge trims and flashings
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.
Roof lanterns in Coatbridge
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 Hamilton to Coatbridge is roughly 7 miles — all part of the Lanarkshire area we cover.
