Cleaning and maintenance in Risca

For cleaning and maintenance in Risca, the job is simple to describe: we clear, clean and check lanterns so small problems are caught before they leak. Photos first, a guide price back, then a written fixed price.

Most roof lantern leaks start as small, preventable problems: blocked eaves, a lifted capping, a tired seal. Send photos from Risca (NP11) and we'll tell you which it is — with the price agreed in writing before any work.

Roof lanterns in Risca

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.

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.
