Spectrum Roofing & Renovations | Roofing Services in Metairie, LA 70003

A persistent skylight leak often means the surrounding roof deck and flashing are compromised. Our exterior surface demolition service carefully removes the damaged sections, including old flashing and rotted decking, to get to the root of the problem. This allows us to install a new, watertight skylight assembly and integrate it seamlessly with your existing roof, providing a permanent solution that prevents future leaks and water damage.

It depends on the extent of the damage. Flashing separation can allow water to seep into roof rafters, walls, and even interior ceilings. Our team assesses the situation to determine if partial structure demolition is needed to access and replace rotted structural wood behind the walls or in the attic. This targeted approach ensures we repair not just the visible flashing but also any hidden damage, restoring your home's safety and preventing mold growth.

Total structure demolition is typically a last resort, but it may be necessary if a long-term, unresolved leak has caused catastrophic structural failure, widespread rot, or severe mold contamination throughout the attic and framing. In such cases, a complete tear-down allows for a safe, code-compliant rebuild from the ground up. For most standard flashing or skylight leaks, however, our more focused exterior or partial demolition services are sufficient to fully repair your home.
