We carry out leak investigation and inspection in Tamworth and across the B79 area. Some leaks are obvious; many aren't.

Is it time for leak investigation and inspection?
- Previous repairs haven't stopped the leak
- The leak moves around or is intermittent
- You need a written report for a landlord, insurer or builder
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 Tamworth 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.
Tamworth is around 21 miles from Stafford, and both are within our Staffordshire coverage.
Neighbouring places we cover include Lichfield (6 miles), Sutton Coldfield (7 miles), Aldridge (9 miles).
How much should it cost?
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.
