We carry out leak investigation and inspection in Luton and across the LU1 area. Some leaks are obvious; many aren't.
What you might be seeing
- Previous repairs haven't stopped the leak
- The leak moves around or is intermittent
- You're not sure if it's a leak or condensation
Why it happens
Hidden water paths
Water can travel along bars, decks and linings before it shows.
More than one fault
Older lanterns often have two or three small failures.
Covering Luton 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.
We cover Luton as part of Bedfordshire, about 18 miles from Bedford.
We also cover nearby Dunstable (5 miles), Harpenden (5 miles), Hitchin (7 miles).
Guide prices for leak investigation and inspection in Luton
Guide price for leak investigation and inspection: £145–£295 ex VAT (£174–£354 inc VAT), per visit. 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.
