We also check attic ventilation near the skylight opening, since poor airflow often contributes to the condensation issues homeowners mistake for leaks.
Our Skylight Repair technicians check flashing, seals, and the surrounding roof deck together, since a skylight leak is rarely just one thing.
We also check the surrounding shingles and decking while we're up there, since a skylight issue sometimes points to a broader roof concern.
Every Skylight Repair technician carries current Merrimac, MA licensing and skylight-specific training.

Here's what falls under our Merrimac Skylight Repair service for skylights.
Cracked or corroded flashing around the skylight curb is the most common source of Merrimac skylight leaks.
Seal replacement is often a faster, cheaper fix than homeowners expect before calling.
Fogging or dripping isn't always a leak — condensation from poor ventilation can mimic leak symptoms.
When the skylight unit itself has failed — cracked glass, fogged double-pane seals — we replace it to current code.
Adding a skylight to a Merrimac home involves structural and flashing considerations beyond just cutting a hole in the roof.

We check the full flashing system, not just the section that looks obviously damaged.
We explain the actual cause of the issue before quoting any Skylight Repair repair.
We test the repair area before considering the Skylight Repair job complete.
