Most roof lantern leaks start as small, preventable problems: blocked eaves, a lifted capping, a tired seal. We carry out cleaning and maintenance across Herefordshire, with a guide price from your photos and a fixed price in writing before any work starts.

Roof lanterns in Herefordshire
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.
What should you expect to pay for cleaning and maintenance in Herefordshire?
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?
Most lantern repairs in England need no approval at all. Where a job turns into a replacement, the Building Regulations 2010 apply and we confirm how the work will be signed off before we start. 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.
