Skylight issues cover a specific range of leak and seal problems — here's our Skylight Repair scope.
Cracked or corroded flashing around the skylight curb is the most common source of East Canaan skylight leaks.
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 East Canaan 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.
Tell us what you're seeing — dripping, fogging, or visible flashing damage — and we'll schedule accordingly.
Technicians check flashing, seals, and surrounding decking as one connected system.
We explain the actual cause before quoting, so you're not paying for the wrong repair.
The repair is completed the same visit whenever possible, with a workmanship guarantee on the fix.
