Orangery lantern repairs in County Down

Dealing with a leaking orangery roof somewhere in County Down? We repair orangery lanterns, internal gutters and perimeter details on timber and aluminium orangeries. Our coverage includes Newry, Bangor, Down, Newtownards and the villages around them.

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.

Roof lanterns in County Down

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.

Coastal wind drives rain hard against lanterns, so cappings and ridge seals on the seaward face take the most punishment.
