Built for Folkestone homes

Around Folkestone and the wider county, housing stock runs to weatherboard cottages, Victorian villas and a huge commuter-belt extension market — kitchen-diner lanterns are the signature project here. We've specified and supplied for exactly these property types across Kent, so recommendations come from real local precedent.

Every lantern is thermally broken aluminium as standard, glazed with 28mm argon-filled units, and available with self-clean and solar-control coatings. Supply-only orders include kerb specifications and fitting documentation; installed projects carry our written workmanship guarantee on top of the 10-year product cover.

Folkestone, Rochester, Sittingbourne and Sevenoaks and the rest of Kent all sit inside standard coverage: free surveys, free quotes, and a response within 1 working hour.

Roof Lantern Repairs in Folkestone — common questions

My lantern glass has misted up — can it be fixed?

Yes — misting means the sealed unit has failed, not the lantern. We measure the pane, manufacture a matching unit (including self-clean or solar coatings) and fit it in situ, usually within a couple of weeks.

Water is dripping from my lantern — what's the likely cause?

Could be five things: ridge capping, hip junction, perimeter seal, kerb flashing or the flat roof itself, with condensation a sixth impostor. We trace the actual path before quoting, so you pay to fix the real fault.

Can you repair lanterns you didn't supply?

Yes — repairs cover all major aluminium, uPVC and timber systems regardless of who installed them. Photos of the lantern and the fault speed up the first visit.

Is condensation between the panes repairable?

The pane itself isn't — once a sealed unit's edge seal fails it's replaced, not resealed. The frame stays; only the glass unit changes.

Can I book installation in Folkestone?

We do. Folkestone and the surrounding Kent towns are core territory for both our installation teams and our supply-only delivery routes.
