We carry out roof lantern replacement in Cramlington and across the NE23 area. We're repair-first, but some lanterns are past it: distorted frames, rot through the main bars, or most of the glass failed.

What usually causes it?

Rot
Timber lanterns left unmaintained.
Roof lanterns in Cramlington
Freeze-thaw cycles open up tired sealant and gaskets faster than mild weather does. A spring check after a hard winter catches most problems before they leak.
Near the coast, salt in the air is hard on aluminium finishes and fixings; washing the frame occasionally and touching in chips keeps corrosion away.
From Morpeth to Cramlington is roughly 7 miles — all part of the Northumberland area we cover.
Close by, we also cover Blyth (4 miles), Gosforth (6 miles), Ashington (6 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 England?
Most lantern repairs in England need no approval at all. Where a job turns into a replacement, the Building Regulations 2010 apply and we confirm how the work will be signed off before we start. 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.
