A leaking skylight is almost always a flashing or seal problem, not a bad skylight itself — our Skylight Repair crews diagnose it correctly before touching anything.
Most skylight leaks trace back to the flashing around the curb, not the glass or dome itself — a detail general roofers sometimes miss.
We also check the surrounding shingles and decking while we're up there, since a skylight issue sometimes points to a broader roof concern.
Every Skylight Repair technician carries current Oakwood, IL licensing and skylight-specific training.
We carry common flashing and seal materials to handle most repairs in one visit.
You'll know exactly what's being fixed and why before we start.
Moisture meters help confirm whether a leak is active or residual before recommending a fix.
Skylight issues cover a specific range of leak and seal problems — here's our Skylight Repair scope.
We re-flash the full perimeter, not just the section that's visibly failing.
Degraded rubber seals let water in around the glass or dome even when flashing is intact.
Fogging or dripping isn't always a leak — condensation from poor ventilation can mimic leak symptoms.
When the skylight unit itself has failed — cracked glass, fogged double-pane seals — we replace it to current code.
Adding a skylight to a Oakwood home involves structural and flashing considerations beyond just cutting a hole in the roof.
We check airflow as part of a full Skylight Repair diagnosis, not just the flashing and seals.
Skylight Skylight Repair visits are usually quick, but we still check the full flashing system before quoting anything.
We check the full flashing system, not just the section that looks obviously damaged.
You receive a written estimate specifying whether the fix is flashing, seals, or unit replacement.
We test the repair area before considering the Skylight Repair job complete.
Diagnosed condensation versus an actual leak correctly, saved us an unnecessary repair.
