Skylight Replacement

Q : When should I have my Skylight Replaced? Should I wait until it starts leaking?

A : Your skylight should be replaced when your roofing system is replaced.

It is common to have a Skylight which is functioning properly but the Roofing System needs to be replaced.

At Weatherproof Roofing we commonly get calls from homeowners who have replaced their Roofing System within 1-3 years, but did not have their Skylight Replaced. Noticing leaking from or caused by the skylight, the skylight and surrounding roofing material must be replaced. Before the Roofing System was replaced the Skylight was functioning properly with no signs of leaking, so what is the cause of the leaking?

There can be a few different reasons for this leaking.

  1. The metal flashing surrounding the skylight is reused, leaving holes in the flashing which can cause leaking.

  2. If the skylight is removed to replace the metal flashing, then reinstalled, the skylight can have easily suffered damages to the integrity of the seals used originally to build the skylight.

  3. The metal flashing is damaged when the existing roofing system is removed, which can lead it to falter.

If you are a homeowner that is in this particular situation, have no fear, Weatherproof Roofing can handle all of your Skylight Replacement needs in Edmonton and Area.
