Skylight Leak Repair in Orange County
Fast, accurate, and long-lasting skylight leak repair performed by a Certified VELUX Installer. We identify the true source of the leak and fix it correctly the first time.
Why Skylights Leak
Even a high-quality skylight can start leaking if the installation or surrounding roof components were done incorrectly. Common causes include poor flashing, old sealant, worn underlayment, or storm damage.
Typical leak sources:
-
Incorrect flashing installation
-
Old or damaged underlayment
-
Cracked or deteriorated sealant
-
Improper skylight pitch
-
Clogged weep holes
-
Broken or aged skylight (old acrylic domes)
-
Roofing issues outside the skylight opening
Our Skylight Leak Repair Process
1. Full Diagnostic Inspection
We examine the skylight, curb, flashing, roofing, interior ceiling, and attic to identify the real cause of the leak — not just the visible damage.
2. Leak Source Confirmation
We test the skylight and surrounding roof area to confirm whether the problem is in the skylight, flashing, or roofing.
3. Repair or Replacement Options
Depending on the exact issue, we may perform:
-
flashing repair or replacement
-
sealant renewal
-
curb waterproofing
-
roof shingle repair
-
skylight replacement (if the unit is old or cracked)
4. Guaranteed, Long-Lasting Result
We use VELUX-approved flashing kits and correct installation methods to ensure the leak is permanently fixed.
When Replacement Is Better Than Repair
Sometimes repairing an old skylight is not cost-effective.
Replacement is recommended when:
-
acrylic dome is yellowed or cracked
-
skylight is over 20 years old
-
water damage repeats after repairs
-
condensation builds inside the glass
-
flashing system is outdated
We install new VELUX No-Leak skylights with Velux 10-year warranty.
