We carry out cleaning and maintenance in Paisley and across the PA1 area. Most roof lantern leaks start as small, preventable problems: blocked eaves, a lifted capping, a tired seal.

Is it time for cleaning and maintenance?

  • Dirty glass or green algae on the frame
  • Leaves or moss at the eaves
  • The lantern is under trees

Why it happens

Algae and dirt

Hold moisture against seals and spoil the view.

Unnoticed wear

Nobody looks at the roof until it leaks.

Roof lanterns in Paisley

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.

Urban grime and traffic film dull glass and frames quickly; a clean and seal check makes a tired lantern look and perform much better.

We cover Paisley as part of Glasgow and Clyde, about 7 miles from Glasgow.

Close by, we also cover Renfrew (3 miles), Johnstone (3 miles), Clydebank (5 miles).

Do you need permission in Scotland?

In Scotland, 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 (Scotland) Regulations 2004, so we set out the route in writing first. 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.
