Skylight repairs & leak fixes for Morden: the essentials
We handle skylight repairs & leak fixes across Greater London, including Morden. In short: leak tracing, resealing, actuator repairs and glass replacement. The survey checks structure, weathering and orientation, so the quote reflects your actual roof.
London homes often run deep from front to back, so the middle of the ground floor is the darkest space — exactly where an overhead rooflight earns its keep. In Morden, as anywhere, skylight repairs & leak fixes are the usual choice for rooflights that have stopped opening or started dripping.
Neighbouring towns include Mitcham (2 km) and Wimbledon (3 km). We offer a survey date when we reply to your enquiry.

Consents for skylight repairs & leak fixes in Morden
Most rooflights on English houses do not need planning permission, provided they keep within 150 mm of the roof surface and below the ridge line. Listed buildings need listed building consent, flats have no householder permitted development rights, and an Article 4 direction can remove the rights in some conservation areas.
For English homes the energy rules ask for rooflights of 2.2 W/m²K or better and roof windows of 1.4 W/m²K (or WER Band B); most modern double glazed units meet both. Replacing a rooflight or roof window can be self-certified by an installer registered with an authorised competent person scheme; otherwise building control approval is needed.
See our building regulations guide for U-values, glazing limits and self-certification.

Can you fix a misted rooflight?
A misted unit means the glass seal has failed. The sealed unit, or the whole rooflight, needs replacing.
Do you charge for repair visits?
Yes, repairs are charged. We give the price before the visit.
Is it condensation or a leak?
