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.
We also check the surrounding shingles and decking while we're up there, since a skylight issue sometimes points to a broader roof concern.
Skylight Skylight Repair technicians carry manufacturer-specific training for common brands.
Local Cottage Hills dispatch means most Skylight Repair calls get scheduled within a few days.
You'll know exactly what's being fixed and why before we start.
We check curb flashing, step flashing, and counter-flashing as a full system, not in isolation.
Here's what falls under our Cottage Hills Skylight Repair service for skylights.
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.
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.
We assess roof framing and pitch before recommending curb-mount or deck-mount installation.
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 area is tested before we consider the Skylight Repair visit complete.
Thought we needed a whole new skylight, turned out to be a flashing fix that cost way less.
