Skylight Leak Repair Newark NJ

A skylight leak is not always caused by the glass. Many leaks come from failed flashing, old sealant, damaged shingles, bad underlayment, cracked curb systems, or poor water flow around the skylight. Water can enter around the skylight and travel under the roof before appearing inside the home.

Our team inspects the skylight frame, surrounding shingles, roof slope, flashing, underlayment, curb, interior stains, and attic area when accessible. We focus on repairing the source of the water problem instead of using temporary caulk that can fail during the next storm.

Skylight Flashing Repair Newark NJ

Flashing is the metal waterproofing system that protects the skylight opening. When flashing separates, rusts, lifts, or was installed incorrectly, water can enter around the skylight and damage the ceiling below.

• Step flashing repair
• Counter flashing repair
• Curb flashing repair
• Waterproofing around skylight perimeter
• Shingle repair around skylight opening
• Sealant replacement where needed

Skylight Replacement Newark NJ

Sometimes replacement is better than repair. If the skylight is old, cracked, fogged, rotted, or leaking repeatedly, installing a new skylight may be more cost-effective than continuing to patch the same problem.

Skylight replacement may be recommended when the skylight is 15+ years old, glass is cracked, condensation is trapped between panes, the frame is rotted, or previous repairs have failed multiple times.

Roof Repair Around Skylights

Many skylight leaks are connected to roof problems around the skylight opening. Missing shingles, worn underlayment, exposed nails, damaged roof decking, clogged gutters, and poor water flow can all cause water to enter near the skylight.

ABC Contractor LLC can repair the skylight and the surrounding roof area so the complete system is protected.

Skylight Repair for Newark Roof Types

We repair skylights on asphalt shingle roofs, flat roofs, low-slope roofs, modified bitumen roofs, TPO roof sections, and older Newark residential roofing systems. Each roof type requires the correct repair method and flashing detail.
