Covering Pontypool and nearby

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.

Pontypool is around 8 miles from Newport, Gwent, and both are within our Gwent coverage.

We also cover nearby Cwmbran (3 miles), Risca (7 miles), Blackwood (7 miles).
