Potomac Falls Skylight Repair Company

Most skylight problems occur with poor roof flashing installation. Skylight technology has evolved to a point that they very rarely ever leak. The issue is where the roof connects to the skylight. This is where the flashing is.

Shingles and other roofing materials depend on gravity to keep water out of your house. They overlap in such a fashion to keep the water moving down the roof. The steeper the pitch of roof, the better the system works. If there is not a steep pitch to the roof then the water will move at a slower rate and can cause the water to build up in certain areas. These are the problem areas.

Flashing works the same way. The only way for the water to get past the flashing, if it is installed correctly, is to defy gravity. Snow is a major problem with this because it creates what is called an ice dam. The snow accumulates and limits the water flow, therefore, causing the water to be dammed and cause leaks. Strong winds can also alter the flow of water. Although, this is not as damaging as ice dams, it can be a real problem. Potomac Falls roof repair contactors can look at your flashing to verify that there is no wind damaged flashing. If there is they can easily repair or secure any flashings that are needed before the winter months.

Most skylights that are sold require a roofer to make the required flashings on the spot. This process requires an experienced professional roofer and a wonderful attention to detail. Not all roofers are qualified to do this. Potomac Falls roof repair company contractors at Roof Repair, VA are specifically trained to handle skylights’ installation and repair.

Lengthening a pre-existing skylight is a very simple affair. The complications can come from widening the skylight.
