We carry out roof lantern leak repairs in Armagh and across the BT60 area. A roof lantern leak is almost always a failed seal, a lifted capping, blocked eaves drainage or a problem where the kerb meets the flat roof — not a failed lantern.

Is it time for roof lantern leak repairs?

  • Drips from a glazing bar or the eaves beam when it rains
  • Brown staining or bubbling paint on the plasterboard lining around the lantern
  • Water running down the inside face of the glass

Common causes we find

Blocked eaves drainage

Most lanterns collect water in a channel inside the eaves beam and let it out through weep slots. Leaves, moss and grit block the slots and the channel overflows indoors.

The kerb or roof junction

If the flat roof membrane isn't dressed high enough up the kerb, or the kerb has no fall, water sits against the joint and finds its way in under the lantern.

Covering Armagh and nearby

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.

Close by, we also cover Portadown (10 miles), Dungannon (11 miles), Craigavon (13 miles).
