We cover Dundee and the wider Dundee and Angus area for cleaning and maintenance. In short, we clear, clean and check lanterns so small problems are caught before they leak — and you know the price before any work begins.

We carry out cleaning and maintenance in Dundee and across the DD1 area. Most roof lantern leaks start as small, preventable problems: blocked eaves, a lifted capping, a tired seal.

Covering Dundee and nearby

Colder winters mean more frosty mornings, and a roof lantern is often the coldest surface in a warm kitchen — so condensation is as common as genuine leaks. We check which you've got before quoting.

Coastal wind drives rain hard against lanterns, so cappings and ridge seals on the seaward face take the most punishment.

Close by, we also cover Carnoustie (10 miles), Cupar (10 miles), St Andrews (11 miles).

Do you need permission in Scotland?

Most lantern repairs in Scotland need no approval at all. Where a job turns into a replacement, the Building (Scotland) Regulations 2004 apply and we confirm how the work will be signed off before we start. Listed buildings in Scotland need listed building consent from the planning authority for alterations, with Historic Environment Scotland guidance; check before changing a lantern on a listed property.
