Why it happens

Clip failure

Clip-on cappings can lose their grip and lift.

Blocked drainage

As with all lanterns, blocked eaves drainage causes overflow.

Covering Aldridge and nearby

Lanterns in central England see a bit of everything — summer sun that ages seals and end caps, autumn leaf fall that blocks eaves, and frosty mornings that bring condensation. A yearly check covers all three.

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.

Aldridge is around 9 miles from Birmingham, and both are within our West Midlands coverage.

Close by, we also cover Walsall (3 miles), Bloxwich (4 miles), Sutton Coldfield (5 miles).

How much should it cost?

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

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?

In England, 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, so we set out the route in writing first. 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.
