We carry out cleaning and maintenance in Pontypool and across the NP4 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
- You've never had it checked
- The lantern is under trees
Common causes we find
Debris

Algae and dirt

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).
Guide prices for cleaning and maintenance in Pontypool
Most cleaning and maintenance jobs come in between £95 and £245 ex VAT (£114–£294 including 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 Wales?
Most lantern repairs in Wales need no approval at all. Where a job turns into a replacement, the Building Regulations 2010 (as applied in Wales) apply and we confirm how the work will be signed off before we start. Listed buildings in Wales need listed building consent from the local planning authority for alterations, with Cadw guidance on historic buildings; check with the council before changing a lantern on a listed property.
