Orangery lantern repairs in Bath

Orangery lantern repairs in Bath (BA1): we repair orangery lanterns, internal gutters and perimeter details on timber and aluminium orangeries. Start with a few photos by WhatsApp or the form and we'll come back with a guide price.

In Bath, 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.

Roof lanterns in Bath

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.

If you're just outside Bath, we also cover Trowbridge (8 miles), Frome (10 miles), Bristol (12 miles).

What should you expect to pay in Bath?

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

Guide price for orangery lantern repairs: £395–£2,495 ex VAT (£474–£2,994 inc 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 England?

Straightforward repairs — resealing, gaskets, cappings, eaves and like-for-like parts — don't normally need building regulations approval in England. Replacing the whole lantern or enlarging the opening is different and falls under the Building Regulations 2010; we confirm in writing which route applies before any replacement. 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.
