We also check attic ventilation near the skylight opening, since poor airflow often contributes to the condensation issues homeowners mistake for leaks.
Most skylight leaks trace back to the flashing around the curb, not the glass or dome itself — a detail general roofers sometimes miss.
We also check the surrounding shingles and decking while we're up there, since a skylight issue sometimes points to a broader roof concern.
Every Skylight Repair technician carries current Arlington Heights, IL 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 Skylight Repair issue is active or residual.
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 Arlington Heights 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.
Replacement units are properly flashed and sealed, not just dropped into the old opening.
We assess roof framing and pitch before recommending curb-mount or deck-mount installation.
We check airflow as part of a full Skylight Repair diagnosis, not just the flashing and seals.
Tell us what you're seeing — dripping, fogging, or visible flashing damage — and we'll schedule accordingly.
A technician inspects the flashing, seals, and surrounding roof deck around your Arlington Heights skylight.
You receive a written estimate specifying whether the fix is flashing, seals, or unit replacement.
We test the repair area before considering the Skylight Repair job complete.
