Q&A

What's the most common cause of a leaking skylight in Hanover homes, and how do you fix it?

In our area, the most frequent cause is failed or degraded flashing seals around the skylight, often due to temperature extremes and UV exposure. Our repair process involves a thorough inspection to identify all leak points. We then carefully remove the old, compromised flashing, clean and prepare the surface, and install new, corrosion-resistant flashing sealed with premium, weatherproof materials to create a watertight barrier that lasts.

Why does roof flashing corrode so quickly here, and what replacement options do you offer?

Hanover's humidity and exposure to various precipitation can accelerate corrosion on standard aluminum or steel flashing. We offer upgraded, long-lasting materials like galvanized steel with a protective coating or copper flashing, which naturally resists corrosion. During replacement, we ensure a proper integration with your existing shingles and roof structure to prevent future water intrusion and extend the life of your entire roof system.

Can you repair a leak around my roof's flashing, or does it always need a full replacement?

It depends on the extent of the corrosion and damage. We always start with a detailed, no-obligation inspection. For minor corrosion where the metal is still structurally sound, a professional cleaning and re-sealing can often be a effective, budget-friendly repair. However, if the flashing is extensively corroded, brittle, or has separated from the roof, a full replacement is the only reliable, long-term solution to protect your home from water damage.
