Orangery lantern repairs in Newry

For orangery lantern repairs in Newry, the job is simple to describe: we repair orangery lanterns, internal gutters and perimeter details on timber and aluminium orangeries. Photos first, a guide price back, then a written fixed price.

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. Send photos from Newry (BT34) and we'll tell you which it is — with the price agreed in writing before any work.

About Newry and the BT34 area

Wind-driven rain is the real test of a roof lantern, and the wetter west sees plenty of it. Leaks that appear only in a storm from one direction usually point to the cappings or eaves on that face — a useful clue when you send us photos.

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

If you're just outside Newry, we also cover Banbridge (12 miles), Portadown (17 miles), Armagh (18 miles).

How much should it cost?

Guide price, per lantern£395–£2,495 ex VAT£474–£2,994 inc VAT

Typical range: £395–£2,495 ex VAT, which is £474–£2,994 with 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 Northern Ireland?

In Northern Ireland, 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 (Northern Ireland) 2012, so we set out the route in writing first. Listed buildings in Northern Ireland need listed building consent from the council for alterations; check with the council's planning service before changing a lantern on a listed property.
