Is it time for leak investigation and inspection?

  • 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.

Not the lantern

Sometimes the source is the flat roof, a parapet, a gutter or a wall above.

About Deeside and the CH5 area

Western and upland parts of the UK get more rain and more wind-driven rain than the east, and that's what finds weak cappings and blocked eaves first. Lanterns here benefit from a check of the bars on the most exposed face and a clear eaves channel before winter.

We cover Deeside as part of Clwyd, about 11 miles from Wrexham.

If you're just outside Deeside, we also cover Buckley (3 miles), Mold (5 miles), Flint (5 miles).

How much should it cost?

Guide price, per visit£145–£295 ex VAT£174–£354 inc VAT

Typical range: £145–£295 ex VAT, which is £174–£354 with 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 Wales?

In Wales, 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 (as applied in Wales), so we set out the route in writing first. Listed buildings in Wales need listed building consent from the local planning authority for alterations, with Cadw guidance on historic buildings; check with the council before changing a lantern on a listed property.
