We carry out misted glass unit replacement in Fulham and across the SW6 area. If a roof lantern pane looks cloudy or wet between the two layers of glass, the sealed unit has failed and moisture has got inside.
Is it time for misted glass unit replacement?
- Fog, droplets or white bloom between the panes
- One pane looks hazier than the others
- Water marks or tide lines inside the unit
What usually causes it?
Water sitting on the edge
If the unit's edge sits in water because the eaves don't drain, the seal fails sooner.
Movement and age
Thermal movement and age wear the seal; units at the bottom of the lantern often go first.
Covering Fulham and nearby
Sun and UV do more damage than rain on many lanterns here: brittle ridge caps, chalky finishes and hardened gaskets. They're cheap to replace before they let water in.
London's extensions are often tight to neighbouring walls and roofs. Where a repair needs access over a neighbour's property, we'll tell you in advance so you can arrange it.
From Westminster to Fulham is roughly 3 miles — all part of the Greater London area we cover.
Close by, we also cover Chelsea (1 mile), Putney (2 miles), Battersea (2 miles).
How much should it cost?
Typical range: £245–£595 ex VAT, which is £294–£714 with VAT, per glass unit. 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.

Which places near Fulham do you cover?

How long does a replacement unit take?

We match tint and coatings as closely as possible; a new unit can look very slightly clearer than older neighbours.
