We carry out roof lantern replacement in Banbury and across the OX16 area. We're repair-first, but some lanterns are past it: distorted frames, rot through the main bars, or most of the glass failed.

About Banbury and the OX16 area

Most inland lantern leaks aren't storm damage; they're usually tired sealant, a lifted capping or blocked eaves drainage. All three are quick to find and fix once you know where to look.

Banbury is around 22 miles from Oxford, and both are within our Oxfordshire coverage.

Neighbouring places we cover include Bicester (14 miles), Daventry (15 miles), Leamington Spa (17 miles).

What should you expect to pay in Banbury?

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

Typical range: £1,995–£4,995 ex VAT, which is £2,394–£5,994 with 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.
