Here's what falls under our South Elgin Skylight Repair service for skylights.
Cracked or corroded flashing around the skylight curb is the most common source of South Elgin 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.
We assess roof framing and pitch before recommending curb-mount or deck-mount installation.
We check airflow as part of a full Skylight Repair diagnosis, not just the flashing and seals.
Tell us what you're seeing — dripping, fogging, or visible flashing damage — and we'll schedule accordingly.
We check the full flashing system, not just the section that looks obviously damaged.
We explain the actual cause before quoting, so you're not paying for the wrong repair.
We test the repair area before considering the Skylight Repair job complete.
