Skylight Repair · Toronto & GTA

Skylight leak repairs that include the surrounding roof

Skylight flashing, waterproofing, and surrounding roof repairs.

Serving Toronto and communities across the GTA. We inspect first, explain the options, and put the proposed scope in writing.

What the service covers

Start with the whole roof problem.

A skylight leak may come from the unit, its flashing, the surrounding shingles, or condensation. We inspect how the skylight connects to the roof and explain whether the right scope is a flashing repair, nearby roofing work, or specialist attention to the unit itself.

Skylight Repair FAQ

Questions homeowners ask us

Why is my skylight leaking?

Common causes include failed flashing, damaged surrounding shingles, blocked drainage paths, condensation, or a problem with the unit. The weather pattern and location of staining help narrow the source.

Can skylight flashing be repaired?

Yes, when the skylight and surrounding roof remain suitable. A proper repair may require removing nearby shingles to rebuild the waterproofing and flashing rather than adding surface sealant.

Does a leaking skylight need replacement?

Not always. If the unit is sound and the roofing detail failed, flashing work may solve it. Failed seals, damaged frames, or aging units may require replacement by the appropriate installer.

Why does it leak only in winter?

Snowmelt and ice can expose weak flashing or drainage details, while indoor condensation can also collect around a cold skylight. We look at both the roof connection and visible moisture pattern.

Can you repair the shingles around a skylight?

Yes. We assess whether nearby shingles can be integrated into a sound repair and include the required roofing and flashing work in the written estimate.
