We carry out orangery lantern repairs in Holyhead and across the LL65 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.

What you might be seeing
- Leaks at the lantern edge or around the internal pelmet
- Staining on the orangery ceiling
- Misted units on a large lantern
What usually causes it?
Large-span movement
Bigger lanterns move more, stressing seals.
Timber maintenance
Painted timber orangeries need regular redecoration.
Roof lanterns in Holyhead
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.
We cover Holyhead as part of Gwynedd, about 21 miles from Bangor, Gwynedd.
If you're just outside Holyhead, we also cover Llangefni (14 miles), Caernarfon (19 miles), Bangor, Gwynedd (21 miles).
What should you expect to pay in Holyhead?
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 Wales?
Straightforward repairs — resealing, gaskets, cappings, eaves and like-for-like parts — don't normally need building regulations approval in Wales. Replacing the whole lantern or enlarging the opening is different and falls under the Building Regulations 2010 (as applied in Wales); we confirm in writing which route applies before any replacement. 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.
