What you might be seeing

  • Yellowed or brittle end caps
  • Rattling or whistling in wind
  • Leaks at the ridge or eaves

Common causes we find

UV ageing

uPVC components become brittle and crack after years of sun.

Blocked drainage

As with all lanterns, blocked eaves drainage causes overflow.

Covering Heswall 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.

In built-up areas, access is often the hardest part of the job — through the house, over a neighbour's roof, or with parking restrictions. We plan access in advance and price any tower or scaffold into the quote.

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.

We cover Heswall as part of Merseyside, about 8 miles from Liverpool.

Close by, we also cover Bebington (4 miles), Birkenhead (6 miles), Wallasey (7 miles).

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.
