Skylight Leak Repair

 Our trained, licensed professionals can repair or replace your existing skylight, helping you maintain a bright, comfortable, and weather-protected home. 

A skylight is a window located on the roof or a slanted outside wall. Most Portland homeowners use skylights to:

• Bring in more natural light – Since skylights are located on the roof, they let in natural light both during the day and the night, which can help save on electricity bills since you won’t need to turn on lights as frequently.
• Provide more ventilation in a room – You can choose a skylight that opens (manually or electronically) to improve cross ventilation, cooling down and refreshing rooms that tend to be hot and stuffy.
• Solar heats their home in winter – Skylights let in a lot of direct sunlight, which helps keep homes warm during the winter. Still, you can add shades to a skylight to keep sunlight from coming in too strongly in the summer.
• Make rooms and views look better – Skylights can make just about any room feel bigger and give it a light, natural feel. Plus, depending on where the skylight is positioned, it can give you a better view of your city or even the stars on those rare, clear Portland nights.
• Increase the value of their home – Cosmetic investments, like new skylights, make your home look more attractive, increasing its resale value.

Is your skylight leaking or not working properly? Call us and we’ll come take a look.

More often than not, minor issues can be fixed with a skylight repair—helping you save a lot of money by not having to pay for a skylight replacement. A leaking skylight can usually be fixed by either replacing a seal or reflashing (an extensive form of weatherproofing) the skylight.

That said, if you want to take the opportunity to check out your options for new, more advanced skylights, we’re happy to help.

Sometimes, a skylight is beyond repair and needs to be completely replaced. If that’s the case, our professionals will:

1. Remove your existing skylight – Don’t worry—we take extra care to keep your roof (and the rest of your home) free of any damage.
2. Help you choose a new skylight – If you don’t want to mess around with choosing a new model, we’ll help you find the closest replacement for your existing skylight.
3. Install your brand new skylight – Taking just as much care as we did when removing your old skylight, we’ll install your new one. Our professionals have been replacing skylights for years, so they know what they’re doing.
