FAQs
What's the most common cause of a roof skylight leak in Massillon homes, and how do you fix it?
In our Massillon climate, the most common cause is failed or degraded sealant around the skylight frame and flashing. Temperature fluctuations and weather wear can break these seals. We fix it by carefully removing the old sealant, inspecting and repairing any compromised flashing, and applying a new, high-quality, weatherproof sealant designed for our local conditions to ensure a long-lasting repair.
I have corrosion on my roof flashing. Is a repair always possible, or will I need a full replacement?
It depends on the extent of the corrosion. During our inspection, we assess if the metal is pitted or has lost its structural integrity. For minor, surface-level corrosion on otherwise sound flashing, a professional cleaning and application of a protective coating can be a viable repair. However, if the corrosion is advanced and the flashing is compromised, a full replacement is necessary to prevent water intrusion and protect the underlying roof structure of your home.
As a general contractor, can you handle the interior damage that might occur from a roof leak?
Absolutely. As a full-service general contractor, we don't just stop at the roof repair. If a skylight or flashing leak has caused water damage to ceilings, walls, or insulation, our team can coordinate and perform the necessary interior repairs. This includes water extraction, drying, mold remediation if needed, and restoring the damaged areas, providing you with a single, reliable source for resolving the entire problem from the roof down.
