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.
Most skylight leaks trace back to the flashing around the curb, not the glass or dome itself — a detail general roofers sometimes miss.
A proper Skylight Repair diagnosis takes a few extra minutes but saves you from paying for the wrong fix.
Every Skylight Repair technician carries current Buffalo Prairie, IL licensing and skylight-specific training.
We stock common flashing and seal materials for same-visit Buffalo Prairie Skylight Repair repairs.
Written Skylight Repair estimates before any repair, covering flashing, seals, or replacement separately.
We check curb flashing, step flashing, and counter-flashing as a full system, not in isolation.
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 Buffalo Prairie skylight leaks.
Seal replacement is often a faster, cheaper fix than homeowners expect before calling.
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.
Adding a skylight to a Buffalo Prairie 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.
Tell us what you're seeing — dripping, fogging, or visible flashing damage — and we'll schedule accordingly.
