Built for Wickford homes

The Essex market is defined by 1930s semis, new-build estates and barn conversions — large bifold-plus-lantern rear extensions are the dominant project type — and our Wickford installs reflect that, with specifications matched to the property rather than pulled off a shelf.

Specification doesn't change with postcode: thermally broken frames, 28mm argon-filled glazing, marine-grade powder coating and a 10-year guarantee, whether you buy supply-only for your own builder or book our installation teams.

Our teams cover Wickford alongside Brentwood, Harlow and Braintree and the rest of Essex — surveys are free, quotes carry no obligation, and we aim for a response within 1 working hour.

Opening & Vented Roof Lanterns in Wickford — common questions

Does an opening pane compromise the lantern's weather seal?

Not in a quality system — the sash closes onto continuous gaskets and locks down tight. The vent panes carry the same glazing spec and guarantee as the fixed glass around them.

Are opening roof lanterns worth it?

Over kitchens and in south-facing rooms, emphatically yes — venting at the highest point purges heat and steam faster than any window can. In cooler, well-ventilated rooms a fixed lantern plus good doors often suffices.

What happens if it rains while the vent is open?

The rain sensor closes it automatically — it's a standard part of the package, not an optional extra, so an open vent and a surprise shower never meet.

Can opening vents be added to my existing lantern?

Only on certain systems — vents are normally factory-built into the roof slope. Send photos of your lantern and we'll confirm whether a retrofit sash exists for it or whether replacement is the honest answer.
