We carry out orangery lantern repairs in Colwyn Bay and across the LL29 area. Orangery lanterns are larger and often sit within a perimeter roof with internal gutters, so leaks can come from the lantern, the perimeter roof or the junction between them.

Signs you need orangery lantern repairs
- Leaks at the lantern edge or around the internal pelmet
- Staining on the orangery ceiling
- Rotten or flaking timber on the lantern
Why it happens
Internal gutters
Box gutters around the lantern block and overflow inward.
Timber maintenance
Painted timber orangeries need regular redecoration.
Covering Colwyn Bay and nearby
Western and upland parts of the UK get more rain and more wind-driven rain than the east, and that's what finds weak cappings and blocked eaves first. Lanterns here benefit from a check of the bars on the most exposed face and a clear eaves channel before winter.
From Wrexham to Colwyn Bay is roughly 35 miles — all part of the Clwyd area we cover.
If you're just outside Colwyn Bay, we also cover Llandudno (5 miles), Abergele (6 miles), Rhyl (10 miles).
What should you expect to pay in Colwyn Bay?
Most orangery lantern repairs jobs come in between £395 and £2,495 ex VAT (£474–£2,994 including VAT), per lantern. 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 Wales?
In Wales, 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 (as applied in Wales), so we set out the route in writing first. Listed buildings in Wales need listed building consent from the local planning authority for alterations, with Cadw guidance on historic buildings; check with the council before changing a lantern on a listed property.
