Stinson B F & Son | Best Roofing Services in Louisville, KY

In our area, skylight leaks are often caused by failed or degraded flashing seals due to temperature fluctuations and UV exposure. We start with a thorough inspection to locate the exact breach. Our repair typically involves removing the old sealant, applying a new, high-grade waterproof flashing system, and ensuring proper integration with the surrounding shingles to prevent future leaks.

This is a frequent issue in Louisville, often due to undersized gutters or insufficient downspouts for our heavy rainfall. We assess your home's roof pitch and drainage area. Our solution usually involves upgrading to a larger-capacity gutter system or adding more downspouts to efficiently channel water away from your foundation, preventing overflow and potential water damage.

In many cases, a professional repair is all that's needed. We carefully examine the skylight glass, frame, and surrounding roofing. If the leak is isolated to the seals or flashing, we can perform a targeted repair. However, if the frame is compromised or the unit is outdated, we'll honestly recommend a replacement to ensure a long-term, watertight solution for your home.
