Is it time for uPVC roof lantern repairs?

  • Yellowed or brittle end caps
  • Cracked cappings or ridge covers
  • Leaks at the ridge or eaves

What usually causes it?

Clip failure

Clip-on cappings can lose their grip and lift.

Blocked drainage

As with all lanterns, blocked eaves drainage causes overflow.

Covering Coleraine 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.

Coleraine is around 27 miles from Derry~Londonderry, and both are within our County Londonderry coverage.

Guide price, per lantern£175–£595 ex VAT£210–£714 inc VAT

Do you need permission in Northern Ireland?

Straightforward repairs — resealing, gaskets, cappings, eaves and like-for-like parts — don't normally need building regulations approval in Northern Ireland. Replacing the whole lantern or enlarging the opening is different and falls under the Building Regulations (Northern Ireland) 2012; we confirm in writing which route applies before any replacement. Listed buildings in Northern Ireland need listed building consent from the council for alterations; check with the council's planning service before changing a lantern on a listed property.
