We carry out uPVC roof lantern repairs in Stourbridge and across the DY8 area. Many uPVC roof lanterns have an aluminium core with uPVC cladding and cappings.
Is it time for uPVC roof lantern repairs?
- Yellowed or brittle end caps
- Green algae along the bars
- 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 Stourbridge 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.
Urban grime and traffic film dull glass and frames quickly; a clean and seal check makes a tired lantern look and perform much better.
We cover Stourbridge as part of West Midlands, about 10 miles from Birmingham.
If you're just outside Stourbridge, we also cover Brierley Hill (2 miles), Kingswinford (3 miles), Dudley (4 miles).
Guide prices for uPVC roof lantern repairs in Stourbridge
Guide price for uPVC roof lantern repairs: £175–£595 ex VAT (£210–£714 inc 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?
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.
