We carry out cleaning and maintenance in Cowbridge and across the CF71 area. Most roof lantern leaks start as small, preventable problems: blocked eaves, a lifted capping, a tired seal.

What you might be seeing
- Leaves or moss at the eaves
- You've never had it checked
- The lantern is under trees
Why it happens
Algae and dirt
Hold moisture against seals and spoil the view.
Unnoticed wear
Nobody looks at the roof until it leaks.
Roof lanterns in Cowbridge
Damp, mild winters keep moss and algae growing on flat roofs and lantern frames, which holds water against seals and blocks weep slots. Regular clearing makes a real difference in wetter areas.

What should you expect to pay in Cowbridge?
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 Wales?
Straightforward repairs — resealing, gaskets, cappings, eaves and like-for-like parts — don't normally need building regulations approval in Wales. Replacing the whole lantern or enlarging the opening is different and falls under the Building Regulations 2010 (as applied in Wales); we confirm in writing which route applies before any replacement. 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.
