We carry out flat roof junction and flashing repairs in Lincoln and across the LN2 area. The junction where the flat roof covering meets the lantern kerb is a weak point on many extensions.
What you might be seeing
- 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
Common causes we find
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 Lincoln 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.
Near the coast, salt in the air is hard on aluminium finishes and fixings; washing the frame occasionally and touching in chips keeps corrosion away.
Neighbouring places we cover include Gainsborough (14 miles), Newark-on-Trent (16 miles), Retford (18 miles).
How much should it cost?
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.
