Frequently Asked Roofing Questions

Yes, roofers can replace and repair skylights once they have the expertise to do so. Modern Roofing have replaced and repaired countless skylight windows in Dublin so we have the expertise and experience to get the job done correctly.

We can apply new silicone sealant to any gaps in the existing seal around the skylight. Remove old or damaged sealant with a scraper before applying the new one. If flashing is loose, reseal it with flashing tape or a similar product. If it’s damaged, it might need to be replaced entirely. Skylight windows have rubber gaskets around the frame. If these are worn out, replacing them can fix the leak.

Water can pool around the skylight especially if it is installed on a flat roof. There may be gaps in the seal around the window or in the flashing that will let water in. Have a professional roofer inspect the window and see where the leak is coming from.

If a skylight is not maintained it can be common for them to leak during heavy rain. Leaking skylights indicate an issue such as poor installation, damaged seals, water pooling or cracks or gaps in the frame.
