We carry out cleaning and maintenance in Burntwood and across the WS7 area. Most roof lantern leaks start as small, preventable problems: blocked eaves, a lifted capping, a tired seal.

What you might be seeing
- Dirty glass or green algae on the frame
- You've never had it checked
- The lantern is under trees
Why it happens
Debris
Leaves and moss block drainage.
Algae and dirt
Hold moisture against seals and spoil the view.
Roof lanterns in Burntwood
Leaf fall from garden trees is the most common cause of eaves overflow on suburban extensions. If your lantern sits near trees, clearing the eaves channel each autumn prevents a lot of drips.
From Stafford to Burntwood is roughly 12 miles — all part of the Staffordshire area we cover.
If you're just outside Burntwood, we also cover Lichfield (4 miles), Cannock (4 miles), Aldridge (5 miles).
How much should it cost?
Guide price for cleaning and maintenance: £95–£245 ex VAT (£114–£294 inc 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?
Straightforward repairs — resealing, gaskets, cappings, eaves and like-for-like parts — don't normally need building regulations approval in England. Replacing the whole lantern or enlarging the opening is different and falls under the Building Regulations 2010; we confirm in writing which route applies before any replacement. 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.
