In our Red Oak area, skylight leaks are frequently caused by failed or degraded sealant around the flashing. Over time, the Texas sun and temperature fluctuations can cause this critical seal to crack and shrink, creating gaps. Our repair process involves carefully removing the old sealant, inspecting the flashing and skylight curb for any underlying damage, and applying a new, high-grade, UV-resistant sealant designed for our local climate to create a lasting, watertight seal.

Flashing separation in Red Oak is often due to a combination of factors: improper initial installation, thermal expansion and contraction from our hot summers and cooler winters, and high winds. When flashing pulls away from chimneys, vents, or walls, it leaves a direct path for water. Our fix isn't just a quick seal; we assess the root cause. We may need to carefully remove and re-install the flashing with new, corrosion-resistant fasteners and high-quality sealants, ensuring it's properly integrated with the surrounding shingles to prevent future separation.

In many cases, yes. A full skylight replacement is only necessary if the glass or frame itself is cracked or damaged beyond repair. Most leaks we see in Red Oak are due to issues with the flashing or sealant, which are fully repairable. We start with a thorough inspection to pinpoint the exact leak source. If the skylight unit is intact, our targeted repair focuses on the perimeter, restoring the waterproof integrity and often saving you the significant cost of a full replacement.
