Why skylights leak
It’s almost never the glass.
When a skylight leaks, the unit itself is rarely the problem — it’s the flashing and seal where the skylight meets your roof. That perimeter is the weak point, and it’s exactly where a rushed or cut-rate install fails: flashing that was never properly tied into the roof, or a bead of sealant left to do a job it can’t hold for long.
We treat that seam as the whole job. The flashing is worked into your surrounding roof and sealed watertight, so water runs off it instead of finding a way in — whether we’re adding a skylight during a reroof or replacing one on its own.
What’s included
What a skylight job includes.
Two install types, sized to your roof and finished watertight. Which one you need comes down to your roof: a sealed curb on flat roofs, self-flashing on pitched.
Curb-mounted units (flat roofs)
Tied into the roof with every curb flashing sealed and waterproofed to spec.
Self-flashing units (pitched roofs)
Tied into the surrounding roofing with all flashing sealed to spec.
Standard 2′×2′ and 2′×4′ sizes
The common skylight sizes, installed to fit your roof — and if you need something different, we can make custom-sized skylights too.
Sealed watertight
All seams, outer edges, and the spots where pipes come through are sealed for a weathertight, long-term finish.
Leaking, not failing?
If your skylight is leaking rather than due for replacement, we can often repair the flashing and seals instead of replacing it — see Roof Repair.
From a real inspection
When a leak starts at the skylight.
Skylights are one of the most common places a roof leaks. On this inspection, the leak around the skylight had already let mold start growing in the bathroom below.
What we found
- The seal around the skylight had failed and water was getting in. Below it, mold had started growing in the bathroom.
- An earlier patch had been laid over the old roof without cleaning it first, so water just kept traveling underneath.
How we fix it
- We replace the failed skylights and flash them into the roof so they’re watertight, not just sealed over.
- When a roof is this far gone, we replace the whole system instead of chasing leaks that keep coming back.
Why homeowners add one
Daylight where a window can’t go.
A skylight puts natural light directly overhead — into the rooms a wall window can’t reach. Done right, it stays a feature, not a future leak.
Light the dark rooms
Interior bathrooms, hallways, and stairwells rarely have an outside wall for a window. A skylight brings real daylight straight down into them.
A brighter, bigger feel
Overhead daylight spreads more evenly than a side window, so the room feels larger — and you reach for the light switch less during the day.
Questions
Skylight questions, answered.
Can you replace a skylight without redoing my whole roof?
Yes. We install and replace skylights on their own, not only during a reroof.
Why do skylights leak?
Almost always the flashing. A skylight is only as good as its flashing and seal — which is exactly what we get right.
What sizes do you install?
Standard 2′×2′ and 2′×4′ units are the most common — and we can make custom-sized skylights when you need a different fit. Curb-mounted for flat roofs, self-flashing for pitched.
