Roof lantern replacement in Wembley

For roof lantern replacement in Wembley, the job is simple to describe: we replace lanterns that are beyond economic repair, checking the kerb and re-making the junction. Photos first, a guide price back, then a written fixed price.

We're repair-first, but some lanterns are past it: distorted frames, rot through the main bars, or most of the glass failed. Send photos from Wembley (HA0) and we'll tell you which it is — with the price agreed in writing before any work.

About Wembley and the HA0 area

Even in drier areas, one heavy downpour with blocked eaves is enough to overflow a lantern indoors. Clearing the eaves channel is the simplest prevention there is.

Across London, many lanterns sit on rear extensions with access only through the house, so we protect floors and plan the work to keep time indoors to a minimum. Parking and any permits are factored into the quote.

Wembley is around 8 miles from Westminster, and both are within our Greater London coverage.

If you're just outside Wembley, we also cover Harrow (2 miles), Greenford (3 miles), Willesden (3 miles).

What should you expect to pay in Wembley?

Guide price, supplied and fitted£1,995–£4,995 ex VAT£2,394–£5,994 inc VAT

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 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.
