A leaking skylight often stems from failed seals or flashing. Our process starts with a thorough inspection to pinpoint the exact cause—whether it's age-related wear, improper installation, or storm damage. We then carefully remove the compromised materials, replace them with durable, weather-resistant seals and flashing, and ensure a watertight integration with your existing roof. Using quality materials suited for our local climate is key to preventing a recurrence.

In Pittsboro's climate, moisture and temperature fluctuations can accelerate metal flashing corrosion, especially around chimneys, vents, and valleys. We address this by first removing all corroded sections. We then install new, corrosion-resistant flashing (like aluminum or coated steel), ensuring it's properly stepped and sealed to direct water away from vulnerable seams. Proper installation is crucial to preventing future leaks and protecting your home's structure.

We recommend checking your roof each spring and fall. Look for cracked or missing shingles, signs of moss or algae growth, and any debris in valleys or gutters. Pay special attention to flashing around penetrations—if you see rust, cracks, or lifting, it's time for an inspection. Catching minor issues early, like a small gap in flashing or a worn skylight seal, can prevent major water damage. When in doubt, give us a call for a professional assessment.
