Roof lantern replacement in Stafford

We cover Stafford and the wider Staffordshire area for roof lantern replacement. In short, we replace lanterns that are beyond economic repair, checking the kerb and re-making the junction — and you know the price before any work begins.

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 Stafford (ST16) and we'll tell you which it is — with the price agreed in writing before any work.

Guide prices for roof lantern replacement in Stafford

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?

In England, like-for-like repairs to a roof lantern don't usually involve building control. A full replacement or a bigger opening is controlled under the Building Regulations 2010, so we set out the route in writing first. 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.
