We carry out misted glass unit replacement in Camberley and across the GU15 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.
Signs you need 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
Why it happens
Edge seal failure
Every sealed unit has an edge seal and desiccant. Once the seal fails, humid air gets in and the desiccant saturates.
Water sitting on the edge
If the unit's edge sits in water because the eaves don't drain, the seal fails sooner.
Covering Camberley and nearby
Even in drier areas, one heavy downpour with blocked eaves is enough to overflow a lantern indoors. Clearing the eaves channel is the simplest prevention there is.
We cover Camberley as part of Surrey, about 10 miles from Guildford.

What should you expect to pay in Camberley?
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?
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.
