Services / Skylights

Skylight repair in Tucson that ends the leak for good.

From changing out a clouded dome to full skylight removal and a new install, we treat the skylight and the roof around it as one system.

Why They Fail / 01

Skylights are the best feature of a low-sloped roof, and the first leak.

Skylight repair calls are half our phone traffic in Tucson for a simple reason: the desert sun destroys acrylic. After years of UV, the dome clouds and cracks, the flashing separates from the curb, and monsoon water finds its way into the house.

We have been repairing and replacing skylights for more than a decade. When we assess yours, we look at the dome, the curb, the flashing, and the roof surface around it, and we trace any leak to its actual entry point before anything gets repaired.

How We Fix It / 02

From new domes to full removal and new installs.

Sometimes a new dome is all a skylight needs. When the unit itself has failed, we take the whole skylight out and install a new one: dome, curb, and flashing, sealed into the surrounding roof coating so the assembly sheds water as one surface. That is the difference between a repair that holds and a bead of caulk that opens up next summer.

New skylights done right bring real daylight into the middle of the house and cut down on daytime lighting, without adding a leak path.

Questions / 03

Skylight Repair questions we hear a lot.

01Can you replace just the skylight dome?

Often, yes. If the curb and flashing are still sound, a new dome solves the problem for a fraction of a full replacement. If the flashing has separated or the curb is soft, replacing only the dome just moves the leak, so we tell you that up front.

02How do I know if the leak is the skylight or the roof?

From the ceiling stain, you usually cannot tell. Water travels along framing before it shows up, so a drip under a skylight can start ten feet away. We trace the leak to its actual entry point before anything gets repaired, which is why our skylight fixes stay fixed.

03Will a new skylight make my house hotter?

A modern dome usually does the opposite of what people fear. Old clear acrylic yellows and lets heat pour in. New white and bronze domes diffuse the light, cut the glare, and reduce heat gain while keeping the daylight. Most clients notice the room feels better, not worse.
