About Prestatyn and the LL19 area
Wind-driven rain is the real test of a roof lantern, and the wetter west sees plenty of it. Leaks that appear only in a storm from one direction usually point to the cappings or eaves on that face — a useful clue when you send us photos.
From Wrexham to Prestatyn is roughly 26 miles — all part of the Clwyd area we cover.
Neighbouring places we cover include Rhyl (4 miles), Abergele (8 miles), Denbigh (11 miles).
