In our coastal climate, the most common cause is failed or worn sealant around the skylight frame due to constant exposure to sun, salt air, and temperature swings. We fix this by carefully removing the old sealant, inspecting and replacing any damaged flashing, and applying a high-grade, weatherproof sealant designed for our local conditions to ensure a long-lasting, watertight seal.

Nail pops are very common here due to the natural expansion and contraction of roof decking from our seasonal temperature changes. While a few may be cosmetic, they can compromise your roof's waterproofing by creating openings for moisture. We address this by safely removing the popped nails, securing the shingle with new, corrosion-resistant nails, and sealing the area to prevent future leaks and maintain your roof's integrity.

We recommend a professional inspection at least once a year, ideally in the spring or fall. Given our local weather patterns—including strong winds, heavy rain, and freeze-thaw cycles—an annual check allows us to catch minor issues like early sealant failure or loose flashing around skylights before they turn into major leaks, saving you time and money on repairs.
