Frequently Asked Roofing Questions
Roofers can fit Velux windows once they are trained and have the expertise to do so. Modern Roofing have installed and repaired countless Velux windows in Dublin and around Ireland so we have the expertise and experience to get the job done.
We can apply new silicone sealant to any gaps in the existing seal around the window. 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. Velux 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.
No, it is not normal for windows to leak during heavy rain. Leaking windows indicate an issue such as poor installation, damaged seals, water pooling or cracks or gaps in the frame.
Flashing issues around the window are a common cause of leaking in Velux and skylight roof windows. If the window was incorrectly installed this can become an issue over time which is why it is important to get a professional to do the installation properly.
