EXPERIENCED WITH SKYLIGHT LEAK REPAIRS

Why Do Skylights Leak?

Skylight leaks can occur for several reasons—many of which stem from improper installation or aging components. Because skylights interrupt the roofline, they require flawless flashing and waterproofing to remain leak-free.

Flashing Failure: Damaged or poorly installed flashing lets water in.
Old or Cracked Seals: Over time, sealants around the skylight dry out and split.
Condensation Issues: Poor ventilation can cause moisture to collect inside the frame.
Improper Installation: If the skylight isn’t installed to code, leaks are almost guaranteed.

Skylight Leak Repair Solutions

At Roof Repairs CA, we start with a thorough inspection to determine the leak source—whether it's flashing, sealant, or the skylight itself. We then repair or replace the damaged components, ensuring a watertight seal and proper drainage around the skylight.

In some cases, we may recommend replacing an older skylight entirely if it's beyond repair. We use energy-efficient and weather-rated skylights that offer both performance and longevity.

Leak Detection: Pinpointing flashing vs. sealant issues.
Flashing Replacement: Installing new step flashing for water redirection.
Sealant Renewal: Removing old caulking and applying commercial-grade sealant.
Skylight Replacement: Swapping out damaged or outdated units.
Waterproof Underlayment: Additional protection under shingles.
Ventilation Check: Preventing condensation-related issues.

Preventing Future Skylight Leaks

Preventing skylight leaks starts with professional installation and continues with routine roof inspections. Even a properly installed skylight can eventually leak if debris clogs drainage areas or flashing starts to pull away.

Roof Repairs CA recommends checking skylights annually, especially after storms. Keeping the surrounding area clean and maintaining sealants can significantly extend the life of your skylight and avoid costly interior damage.
