What you might be seeing

  • 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

More than one fault

Older lanterns often have two or three small failures.

Not the lantern

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

Covering Stourbridge 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.

Urban grime and traffic film dull glass and frames quickly; a clean and seal check makes a tired lantern look and perform much better.

Stourbridge is around 10 miles from Birmingham, and both are within our West Midlands coverage.

If you're just outside Stourbridge, we also cover Brierley Hill (2 miles), Kingswinford (3 miles), Dudley (4 miles).

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.
