We carry out cleaning and maintenance in Hazel Grove and across the SK7 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
- You've never had it checked
- The lantern is under trees
Why it happens
Debris
Leaves and moss block drainage.
Algae and dirt
Hold moisture against seals and spoil the view.
Covering Hazel Grove and nearby
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.
In built-up areas, access is often the hardest part of the job — through the house, over a neighbour's roof, or with parking restrictions. We plan access in advance and price any tower or scaffold into the quote.
From Manchester to Hazel Grove is roughly 8 miles — all part of the Greater Manchester area we cover.
Neighbouring places we cover include Stockport (2 miles), Cheadle Hulme (3 miles), Hyde (5 miles).
Guide prices for cleaning and maintenance in Hazel Grove
Typical range: £95–£245 ex VAT, which is £114–£294 with 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?
Straightforward repairs — resealing, gaskets, cappings, eaves and like-for-like parts — don't normally need building regulations approval in England. Replacing the whole lantern or enlarging the opening is different and falls under the Building Regulations 2010; we confirm in writing which route applies before any replacement. 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.

Cleaning and maintenance in Hazel Grove: questions
Do you need to visit to price cleaning and maintenance?
Not always. Clear photos are often enough for a guide price. Where the cause isn't obvious, a visit to inspect and water-test is charged from £145 ex VAT, confirmed before we come.
Can you repair a lantern someone else installed in Hazel Grove?
Yes. We repair lanterns whoever fitted them. If yours is still under the installer's warranty, contact them first so you don't affect it.
Do you clean the inside of the glass?
We can, where safe access from inside is possible; let us know when booking.
Can you set up regular visits?
Yes — tell us how often you'd like us to come and we'll confirm the price per visit in writing.
