Across Nottinghamshire — Nottingham, Mansfield, Worksop and beyond — we reseal, re-detail and reglaze flat rooflights and skylights. Photos first, then a written fixed price.

Flat rooflights fail in the same places as lanterns: the seal to the upstand, the roof junction and the glass unit. We carry out flat rooflight and skylight repairs across Nottinghamshire, with a guide price from your photos and a fixed price in writing before any work starts.

Leaf fall from garden trees is the most common cause of eaves overflow on suburban extensions. If your lantern sits near trees, clearing the eaves channel each autumn prevents a lot of drips.

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.
