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 Worcester and nearby
Leaf fall from garden trees is the most common cause of eaves overflow on suburban extensions. If your lantern sits near trees, clearing the eaves channel each autumn prevents a lot of drips.
Neighbouring places we cover include Droitwich (6 miles), Great Malvern (7 miles), Stourport-on-Severn (11 miles).
What should you expect to pay in Worcester?
Most uPVC roof lantern repairs jobs come in between £175 and £595 ex VAT (£210–£714 including 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.
