Roof Repair Smedway's Skylight Repair service covers flashing repair, reseals, and unit replacement across Oakland, whatever the skylight actually needs.
Most skylight leaks trace back to the flashing around the curb, not the glass or dome itself — a detail general roofers sometimes miss.
We also check the surrounding shingles and decking while we're up there, since a skylight issue sometimes points to a broader roof concern.
Skylight Skylight Repair technicians carry manufacturer-specific training for common brands.
We carry common flashing and seal materials to handle most repairs in one visit.
Flashing, seal, and replacement costs are quoted separately, not bundled together.
We check curb flashing, step flashing, and counter-flashing as a full system, not in isolation.
Skylight issues cover a specific range of leak and seal problems — here's our Skylight Repair scope.
Cracked or corroded flashing around the skylight curb is the most common source of Oakland skylight leaks.
Seal replacement is often a faster, cheaper fix than homeowners expect before calling.
We diagnose whether it's actually water intrusion or a ventilation issue before recommending a repair.
When the skylight unit itself has failed — cracked glass, fogged double-pane seals — we replace it to current code.
Adding a skylight to a Oakland home involves structural and flashing considerations beyond just cutting a hole in the roof.
We check airflow as part of a full Skylight Repair diagnosis, not just the flashing and seals.
Skylight Skylight Repair visits are usually quick, but we still check the full flashing system before quoting anything.
A technician inspects the flashing, seals, and surrounding roof deck around your Oakland skylight.
