Covering Cardiff and nearby

Wind-driven rain is the real test of a roof lantern, and the wetter west sees plenty of it. Leaks that appear only in a storm from one direction usually point to the cappings or eaves on that face — a useful clue when you send us photos.

If you're just outside Cardiff, we also cover Penarth (3 miles), Caerphilly (7 miles), Barry (7 miles).

How much should it cost?

Guide price, per lantern£495–£1,295 ex VAT£594–£1,554 inc VAT

Typical range: £495–£1,295 ex VAT, which is £594–£1,554 with VAT, per lantern. 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 Wales?

In Wales, 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 (as applied in Wales), so we set out the route in writing first. Listed buildings in Wales need listed building consent from the local planning authority for alterations, with Cadw guidance on historic buildings; check with the council before changing a lantern on a listed property.
