In Bloxwich, as everywhere, most roof lantern leaks start as small, preventable problems: blocked eaves, a lifted capping, a tired seal. Send photos and we'll tell you what we think has failed.

Why it happens

Debris

Leaves and moss block drainage.

Unnoticed wear

Nobody looks at the roof until it leaks.

Covering Bloxwich and nearby

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.

In built-up areas, access is often the hardest part of the job — through the house, over a neighbour's roof, or with parking restrictions. We plan access in advance and price any tower or scaffold into the quote.

From Birmingham to Bloxwich is roughly 10 miles — all part of the West Midlands area we cover.

If you're just outside Bloxwich, we also cover Walsall (2 miles), Willenhall (3 miles), Wednesfield (4 miles).

What should you expect to pay in Bloxwich?

Guide price, per visit£95–£245 ex VAT£114–£294 inc VAT

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.
