In Warwick, as everywhere, 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. Send photos and we'll tell you what we think has failed.

What you might be seeing

  • Fog, droplets or white bloom between the panes
  • Misting that comes and goes with the weather
  • 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.

Movement and age

Thermal movement and age wear the seal; units at the bottom of the lantern often go first.

Covering Warwick 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.

Guide prices for misted glass unit replacement in Warwick

Guide price, per glass unit£245–£595 ex VAT£294–£714 inc VAT

Most misted glass unit replacement jobs come in between £245 and £595 ex VAT (£294–£714 including 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.

Misted glass unit replacement in Warwick: questions

Do you cover Warwick?

Yes. We cover Warwick, including the CV34 postcode area, as part of Warwickshire. Send photos by WhatsApp or the form for a free guide price, and we'll confirm the fixed price in writing before any work starts.

Can you repair a lantern someone else installed in Warwick?

Yes. We repair lanterns whoever fitted them. If yours is still under the installer's warranty, contact them first so you don't affect it.

How long does a replacement unit take?

Units are made to measure, so there's a lead time between measuring and fitting. Fitting itself is usually a short visit.

Will the new pane match the others?

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