Roof Lantern Installation Milton Keynes – New Flat Roof Project
Looking for professional roof lantern installation in Milton Keynes or Bedford? This project demonstrates how a new roof lantern and high-performance flat roof can transform your property—maximizing natural light, improving energy efficiency, and modernizing your home’s appearance.
ROSE ROOFING—trusted, NFRC accredited Milton Keynes roofers—completed a full flat roof replacement and roof lantern fitting for a local homeowner looking to upgrade their living space. The project involved stripping the old roof covering, installing a new torch-on felt roofing system, and fitting a premium Wendland roof lantern.
Project Overview
The existing flat roof had reached the end of its lifespan and was showing signs of wear. The customer wanted to replace an aging unit with a modern, thermally efficient alternative that would maximize daylight.
Our team carried out a complete flat roof renewal alongside a bespoke roof lantern installation, delivering a durable waterproof roofing system and an impressive architectural feature.
Step-by-Step Installation Process
1. Removal of Existing Flat Roof and Lantern
The project began by stripping back the old flat roof membrane, roof boards, and outdated lantern. This allowed our Milton Keynes roofers to inspect the timber deck structure, ensure structural integrity, and prepare the area for a complete rebuild. All waste materials were safely removed and disposed of responsibly.
2. High-Performance Flat Roofing Installation
Following structural preparation, new OSB roof decking was installed to create a solid foundation. As specialists in flat roofing in Milton Keynes, we applied a heavy-duty, three-layer torch-on felt membrane system:
This system delivers long-term durability, UV resistance, and complete weather protection against harsh British winters.
3. Wendland Roof Lantern Installation
A key element of this project was fitting a high-specification Wendland roof lantern.
The new installation instantly transformed the room below, bringing in natural daylight and creating a bright, open space perfect for kitchen extensions and flat roof living areas.
4. Lead Flashings for Weatherproofing
To guarantee a watertight seal, fresh lead flashings were installed around all roof abutments. Mortar joints were carefully chased out before the lead was dressed and secured into place, providing complete protection between the new flat roof and the adjoining brickwork.
