In Middlesbrough, as everywhere, 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 and we'll tell you what we think has failed.

What you might be seeing

  • Several misted or cracked units
  • Distorted or sagging frame
  • Repeated leaks after previous repairs

Why it happens

Age

Older lanterns can't be brought up to modern performance with repairs alone.

Structural damage

Impact or movement distorts the frame.

Roof lanterns in Middlesbrough

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.

If you're just outside Middlesbrough, we also cover Billingham (2 miles), Stockton-on-Tees (3 miles), Thornaby-on-Tees (4 miles).

Guide prices for roof lantern replacement in Middlesbrough

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

Most roof lantern replacement jobs come in between £1,995 and £4,995 ex VAT (£2,394–£5,994 including 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.

Roof lantern replacement in Middlesbrough: questions

Can you repair a lantern someone else installed in Middlesbrough?

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 Middlesbrough do you cover?

As well as Middlesbrough, we cover nearby Billingham, Stockton-on-Tees, Thornaby-on-Tees, Redcar and the rest of North Yorkshire.

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.
