Skylights can bring natural light into a room that doesn’t have windows and let you take advantage of heat from the sun. Sometimes, skylights leak, and the water damage that results can range from inconvenient to catastrophic. If you notice a skylight window leak, you should have it repaired right away.

Why Your Skylight Might Be Leaking

When a skylight is installed, weather stripping and flashing are used to keep water from leaking into the house. Those protective features can get damaged by a storm, or they can gradually wear out or come loose, allowing water to get inside.

Why You Should Be Concerned about Other Problems

If your skylight is leaking, that’s a serious issue, but it might not be the only problem. There’s a good chance that there’s more damage that you can’t see. Water might have already damaged the roofing shingles, supporting structures, and insulation in the area around the skylight, as well as the drywall inside your house.

Moisture damage that’s not dealt with properly can lead to mold that can endanger your family’s health. Mold can be a particularly serious concern if anyone in your household has allergies or asthma.
