We carry out roof lantern replacement in Deeside and across the CH5 area. We're repair-first, but some lanterns are past it: distorted frames, rot through the main bars, or most of the glass failed.

Signs you need roof lantern replacement
- Distorted or sagging frame
- Repeated leaks after previous repairs
- Single-glazed or very poor thermal performance
Why it happens
Structural damage
Impact or movement distorts the frame.
Rot
Timber lanterns left unmaintained.
Covering Deeside and nearby
Western and upland parts of the UK get more rain and more wind-driven rain than the east, and that's what finds weak cappings and blocked eaves first. Lanterns here benefit from a check of the bars on the most exposed face and a clear eaves channel before winter.
From Wrexham to Deeside is roughly 11 miles — all part of the Clwyd area we cover.
We also cover nearby Buckley (3 miles), Mold (5 miles), Flint (5 miles).
How much should it cost?
Guide price for roof lantern replacement: £1,995–£4,995 ex VAT (£2,394–£5,994 inc VAT), supplied and fitted. 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?
Most lantern repairs in Wales need no approval at all. Where a job turns into a replacement, the Building Regulations 2010 (as applied in Wales) apply and we confirm how the work will be signed off before we start. 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.

Roof lantern replacement in Deeside: questions
Can you repair a lantern someone else installed in Deeside?
Yes. We repair lanterns whoever fitted them. If yours is still under the installer's warranty, contact them first so you don't affect it.
Which places near Deeside do you cover?
As well as Deeside, we cover nearby Buckley, Mold, Flint, Wrexham and the rest of Clwyd.
Can the new lantern use the existing opening?
Usually, if the kerb is sound and the size suits a standard or made-to-measure lantern.
Will you tell me if repair is enough?
Yes. We'd rather do a repair that works than sell a lantern you don't need.
