We carry out uPVC roof lantern repairs in Yeovil and across the BA20 area. Many uPVC roof lanterns have an aluminium core with uPVC cladding and cappings.
What you might be seeing
- Yellowed or brittle end caps
- Rattling or whistling in wind
- Leaks at the ridge or eaves
What usually causes it?
UV ageing
uPVC components become brittle and crack after years of sun.
Blocked drainage
As with all lanterns, blocked eaves drainage causes overflow.
Covering Yeovil and nearby
Western and upland parts of the UK get more rain and more wind-driven rain than the east, and that's what finds weak cappings and blocked eaves first. Lanterns here benefit from a check of the bars on the most exposed face and a clear eaves channel before winter.
Yeovil is around 21 miles from Taunton, and both are within our Somerset coverage.
Close by, we also cover Bridgwater (21 miles), Taunton (21 miles), Weymouth (24 miles).
How much should it cost?
Typical range: £175–£595 ex VAT, which is £210–£714 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 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.
