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

Roof lanterns in Moray

Colder winters mean more frosty mornings, and a roof lantern is often the coldest surface in a warm kitchen — so condensation is as common as genuine leaks. We check which you've got before quoting.

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.

Do you need permission in Scotland?

Straightforward repairs — resealing, gaskets, cappings, eaves and like-for-like parts — don't normally need building regulations approval in Scotland. Replacing the whole lantern or enlarging the opening is different and falls under the Building (Scotland) Regulations 2004; we confirm in writing which route applies before any replacement. Listed buildings in Scotland need listed building consent from the planning authority for alterations, with Historic Environment Scotland guidance; check before changing a lantern on a listed property.

Flat roof junction and flashing repairs in Moray: questions

Do you repair the whole flat roof?

We repair the area around the lantern. If the wider roof is failing we'll tell you and can quote, but we won't push a new roof if a local repair will do.

Can you repair a GRP roof without it showing?

Repairs are colour-matched as closely as possible, but new topcoat next to weathered topcoat can look slightly different at first.

Which towns in Moray do you cover?

All of Moray, including Elgin, Buckie, Forres, Keith, Lossiemouth. Rural and remote addresses are covered by arrangement.
