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.
We stock common skylight brands' replacement seals and hardware, keeping most Skylight Repair repairs to a single visit.
We also check the surrounding shingles and decking while we're up there, since a skylight issue sometimes points to a broader roof concern.
Insurance documentation available before work begins on any Detroit property.
Local Detroit dispatch means most Skylight Repair calls get scheduled within a few days.
Written Skylight Repair estimates before any repair, covering flashing, seals, or replacement separately.
Moisture meters help confirm whether a leak is active or residual before recommending a fix.
Here's what falls under our Detroit 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.
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 Detroit 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 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.
Thought we needed a whole new skylight, turned out to be a flashing fix that cost way less.
