Roof Repair Smedway's Skylight Repair service covers flashing repair, reseals, and unit replacement across East Rockaway, whatever the skylight actually needs.
Most skylight leaks trace back to the flashing around the curb, not the glass or dome itself — a detail general roofers sometimes miss.
We also check the surrounding shingles and decking while we're up there, since a skylight issue sometimes points to a broader roof concern.
Insurance documentation available before work begins on any East Rockaway property.
We carry common flashing and seal materials to handle most repairs in one visit.
Flashing, seal, and replacement costs are quoted separately, not bundled together.
Moisture meters help confirm whether a leak is active or residual before recommending a fix.
Skylight issues cover a specific range of leak and seal problems — here's our Skylight Repair scope.
We re-flash the full perimeter, not just the section that's visibly failing.
Degraded rubber seals let water in around the glass or dome even when flashing is intact.
Fogging or dripping isn't always a leak — condensation from poor ventilation can mimic leak symptoms.
Replacement units are properly flashed and sealed, not just dropped into the old opening.
We assess roof framing and pitch before recommending curb-mount or deck-mount installation.
