We carry out flat rooflight and skylight repairs in Warwick and across the CV34 area. Flat rooflights fail in the same places as lanterns: the seal to the upstand, the roof junction and the glass unit.
Is it time for flat rooflight and skylight repairs?
- Water around the rooflight edge
- Ponding on the glass (not enough fall)
- Cracked sealant or a lifted membrane at the upstand
Common causes we find
No fall
Flat glass needs a slight fall to shed water; ponding stresses seals.
Upstand detail
As with lanterns, the membrane must be dressed up and sealed.
Covering Warwick and nearby
Lanterns in central England see a bit of everything — summer sun that ages seals and end caps, autumn leaf fall that blocks eaves, and frosty mornings that bring condensation. A yearly check covers all three.
Neighbouring places we cover include Leamington Spa (3 miles), Kenilworth (5 miles), Stratford-upon-Avon (8 miles).
Guide prices for flat rooflight and skylight repairs in Warwick
Typical range: £195–£595 ex VAT, which is £234–£714 with VAT, per rooflight. 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?
Straightforward repairs — resealing, gaskets, cappings, eaves and like-for-like parts — don't normally need building regulations approval in England. Replacing the whole lantern or enlarging the opening is different and falls under the Building Regulations 2010; we confirm in writing which route applies before any replacement. 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.
