We carry out cleaning and maintenance in Weymouth and across the DT4 area. Most roof lantern leaks start as small, preventable problems: blocked eaves, a lifted capping, a tired seal.
What you might be seeing
- Dirty glass or green algae on the frame
- Leaves or moss at the eaves
- You've never had it checked
Why it happens
Algae and dirt
Hold moisture against seals and spoil the view.
Unnoticed wear
Nobody looks at the roof until it leaks.
Covering Weymouth and nearby
Drier, sunnier parts of the UK are kinder to seals than the wet west, but strong sun ages sealant, gaskets and plastic end caps, and south- or west-facing lanterns can make rooms very warm. Solar control glass and an opening vent help.
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.
From Bournemouth to Weymouth is roughly 26 miles — all part of the Dorset area we cover.
Close by, we also cover Poole (22 miles), Yeovil (24 miles), Bournemouth (26 miles).
Guide prices for cleaning and maintenance in Weymouth
Guide price for cleaning and maintenance: £95–£245 ex VAT (£114–£294 inc VAT), per visit. 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?
Most lantern repairs in England need no approval at all. Where a job turns into a replacement, the Building Regulations 2010 apply and we confirm how the work will be signed off before we start. 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.
