Orangery lantern repairs in Basingstoke

We cover Basingstoke and the wider Hampshire area for orangery lantern repairs. In short, we repair orangery lanterns, internal gutters and perimeter details on timber and aluminium orangeries — and you know the price before any work begins.

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 Basingstoke (RG21) and we'll tell you which it is — with the price agreed in writing before any work.

Covering Basingstoke and nearby

Sun and UV do more damage than rain on many lanterns here: brittle ridge caps, chalky finishes and hardened gaskets. They're cheap to replace before they let water in.

Basingstoke is around 28 miles from Southampton, and both are within our Hampshire coverage.

Guide prices for orangery lantern repairs in Basingstoke

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

Do you need permission in England?

In England, 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, so we set out the route in writing first. 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.
