Orangery lantern repairs in Boston

If you're in Boston and dealing with a leaking orangery roof, we can help. We repair orangery lanterns, internal gutters and perimeter details on timber and aluminium orangeries, and confirm the fixed price in writing before we start.

In Boston, as everywhere, 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 and we'll tell you what we think has failed.

Why it happens

Large-span movement

Bigger lanterns move more, stressing seals.

Timber maintenance

Painted timber orangeries need regular redecoration.

About Boston and the PE21 area

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.

Near the coast, salt in the air is hard on aluminium finishes and fixings; washing the frame occasionally and touching in chips keeps corrosion away.

Boston is around 27 miles from Lincoln, and both are within our Lincolnshire coverage.

Close by, we also cover Spalding (14 miles), Skegness (19 miles), Wisbech (23 miles).

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.
