If your skylight is leaking, the problem is almost never the glass.
It is usually the flashing around it.
Skylights are one of the most sensitive areas of your roof because they create an opening in the system. When the flashing around that opening fails, water can quickly find its way inside your home.
At Mr. GoodRoof, we provide skylight flashing repair in Nashville to stop leaks at the source and restore proper protection around your skylight.
Why Skylight Leaks Happen
From what we see across Nashville homes, skylight leaks are almost always caused by flashing failure, not the skylight itself.
Common causes include:

We will walk you through exactly what we are seeing so you can make the right decision.
