In Strabane, 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.

About Strabane and the BT82 area

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.

Do you need permission in Northern Ireland?

In Northern Ireland, 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 (Northern Ireland) 2012, so we set out the route in writing first. 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.
