Is it time for uPVC roof lantern repairs?

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

Common causes we find

Clip failure

Clip-on cappings can lose their grip and lift.

Blocked drainage

As with all lanterns, blocked eaves drainage causes overflow.

Covering Cramlington and nearby

Freeze-thaw cycles open up tired sealant and gaskets faster than mild weather does. A spring check after a hard winter catches most problems before they leak.

Coastal wind drives rain hard against lanterns, so cappings and ridge seals on the seaward face take the most punishment.

Cramlington is around 7 miles from Morpeth, and both are within our Northumberland coverage.

We also cover nearby Blyth (4 miles), Gosforth (6 miles), Ashington (6 miles).

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.
