Is it time for 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

Common causes we find

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.

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.

Flat roof junction and flashing repairs in Kidsgrove: questions

How do I get a price for flat roof junction and flashing repairs in Kidsgrove?

Send a few photos of the lantern and the problem, with your Kidsgrove postcode. We'll reply with a guide price and tell you whether a visit is needed before we can fix the price.

Can you repair a lantern someone else installed in Kidsgrove?

Yes. We repair lanterns whoever fitted them. If yours is still under the installer's warranty, contact them first so you don't affect it.

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.
