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 East Boston, MA licensing and skylight-specific training.
We carry common flashing and seal materials to handle most repairs in one visit.
