Skylights and leaking:

When replacing a roof, skylights should always be replaced if older than 10 years. We generally use the Velux brand for quality and dependability.

Skylights on a pitched roof should have a step flashing system. This system sheds water properly around your skylight and is complimented by a curb built up on the back of the skylight to re-direct water that may come from a pitch above the skylight location.

If your roof is below a 4" pitch (a very minimal slope), an acrylic dome may be necessary.

Some causes of skylight leaking may be faulty installation, damaged caulking, damaged flashing near the skylight, leaks from other parts of the home, faulty or damaged roof shingles or even improper repairs.
