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.
Our Skylight Repair technicians check flashing, seals, and the surrounding roof deck together, since a skylight leak is rarely just one thing.
A proper Skylight Repair diagnosis takes a few extra minutes but saves you from paying for the wrong fix.
Every Skylight Repair technician carries current Houghton, NY licensing and skylight-specific training.
We carry common flashing and seal materials to handle most repairs in one visit.
Flashing, seal, and replacement costs are quoted separately, not bundled together.
Moisture meters help confirm whether a leak is active or residual before recommending a fix.
Here's what falls under our Houghton Skylight Repair service for skylights.
Cracked or corroded flashing around the skylight curb is the most common source of Houghton skylight leaks.
Seal replacement is often a faster, cheaper fix than homeowners expect before calling.
We diagnose whether it's actually water intrusion or a ventilation issue before recommending a repair.
When the skylight unit itself has failed — cracked glass, fogged double-pane seals — we replace it to current code.
Adding a skylight to a Houghton home involves structural and flashing considerations beyond just cutting a hole in the roof.
Poor attic ventilation near a skylight opening often causes the condensation homeowners mistake for a leak.
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.
We explain the actual cause of the issue before quoting any Skylight Repair repair.
The repair is completed the same visit whenever possible, with a workmanship guarantee on the fix.
