Carmody & Sun Skylights | Windows Installation & Roofing in Menomonee Falls, WI 53051

Yes, when professionally installed. Ice dams often form due to heat escaping from the attic, melting snow that then refreezes at the eaves. A properly installed and ventilated skylight, like those we offer, can be part of a holistic solution. We ensure expert flashing and sealing to prevent leaks and often integrate it with improved attic ventilation to regulate temperature, reducing the conditions that cause ice dams in the first place.

Not necessarily. Our process begins with a thorough inspection of the affected area. We specialize in targeted repairs, replacing only the compromised roof decking and sheathing. Once the structural integrity is restored, we can seamlessly install new windows or a skylight with proper flashing integrated into the repair. This approach addresses the rot damage directly while upgrading your home, often more cost-effectively than a full roof replacement.

Moisture from ice dam leaks can warp frames and damage walls. Our window installations in Menomonee Falls prioritize a watertight seal. We use high-quality, weather-resistant materials and meticulous flashing techniques that direct water away from the window and your home's structure. This is crucial in our climate, as it prevents future water intrusion and protects the surrounding areas from the rot and mold that often follow ice dam incidents.
