Roof Repair Smedway's Skylight Repair service covers flashing repair, reseals, and unit replacement across Rochester, 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 Rochester property.
We carry common flashing and seal materials to handle most repairs in one visit.
You'll know exactly what's being fixed and why before we start.
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.
We diagnose whether it's actually water intrusion or a ventilation issue before recommending a repair.
Replacement units are properly flashed and sealed, not just dropped into the old opening.
Adding a skylight to a Rochester home involves structural and flashing considerations beyond just cutting a hole in the roof.

Skylight Skylight Repair visits are usually quick, but we still check the full flashing system before quoting anything.
Technicians check flashing, seals, and surrounding decking as one connected system.
You receive a written estimate specifying whether the fix is flashing, seals, or unit replacement.
We test the repair area before considering the Skylight Repair job complete.
