Cleaning and maintenance in Portadown

For cleaning and maintenance in Portadown, the job is simple to describe: we clear, clean and check lanterns so small problems are caught before they leak. Photos first, a guide price back, then a written fixed price.

In Portadown, as everywhere, most roof lantern leaks start as small, preventable problems: blocked eaves, a lifted capping, a tired seal. Send photos and we'll tell you what we think has failed.

Do you need permission in Northern Ireland?

Straightforward repairs — resealing, gaskets, cappings, eaves and like-for-like parts — don't normally need building regulations approval in Northern Ireland. Replacing the whole lantern or enlarging the opening is different and falls under the Building Regulations (Northern Ireland) 2012; we confirm in writing which route applies before any replacement. Listed buildings in Northern Ireland need listed building consent from the council for alterations; check with the council's planning service before changing a lantern on a listed property.
