We carry out cleaning and maintenance in Chippenham and across the SN15 area. Most roof lantern leaks start as small, preventable problems: blocked eaves, a lifted capping, a tired seal.

  • The lantern is under trees

What usually causes it?

Unnoticed wear

Nobody looks at the roof until it leaks.

Covering Chippenham 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.

Chippenham is around 16 miles from Swindon, and both are within our Wiltshire coverage.

Close by, we also cover Trowbridge (10 miles), Bath (12 miles), Yate (14 miles).

Guide prices for cleaning and maintenance in Chippenham

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.
