We carry out cleaning and maintenance in Tynemouth and across the NE30 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.
About Tynemouth and the NE30 area
Colder winters mean more frosty mornings, and a roof lantern is often the coldest surface in a warm kitchen — so condensation is as common as genuine leaks. We check which you've got before quoting.
Urban grime and traffic film dull glass and frames quickly; a clean and seal check makes a tired lantern look and perform much better.
From Newcastle upon Tyne to Tynemouth is roughly 8 miles — all part of the Tyne and Wear area we cover.
Close by, we also cover North Shields (1 mile), South Shields (1 mile), Whitley Bay (2 miles).
Guide prices for cleaning and maintenance in Tynemouth
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?
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.
