What do skylight repairs & leak fixes in North Berwick involve?
We handle skylight repairs & leak fixes across Edinburgh and the Lothians, including North Berwick. In short: leak tracing, resealing, actuator repairs and glass replacement. The survey checks structure, weathering and orientation, so the quote reflects your actual roof.
Tenements and flats are common in Scottish towns and cities, where rooflights over stairwells and top-floor flats need the owners' and factor's agreement. In North Berwick, as anywhere, skylight repairs & leak fixes are the usual choice for leaks, condensation, misted units and failed actuators.
We work across Edinburgh and the Lothians, including North Berwick, and in neighbouring towns such as Haddington and Anstruther. Access, parking and how the glass reaches the roof are all checked at the survey.

Planning, building control and North Berwick
Planning rules in Scotland differ: rooflights are treated as external alterations under Class 2B, with no permitted development in conservation areas. Listed buildings need listed building consent where the work affects their character.
Under the Scottish building standards, replacement rooflights should average 1.6 W/m²K or better, and no individual unit should exceed 3.3 W/m²K. Forming a new opening normally involves structural work, so check with the local authority verifier whether a building warrant is needed.
See our building regulations guide for U-values, glazing limits and self-certification.
