Roof Repair Smedway's Skylight Repair service covers flashing repair, reseals, and unit replacement across Destrehan, whatever the skylight actually needs.
Most skylight leaks trace back to the flashing around the curb, not the glass or dome itself — a detail general roofers sometimes miss.
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 Destrehan, LA licensing and skylight-specific training.
Local Destrehan dispatch means most Skylight Repair calls get scheduled within a few days.
You'll know exactly what's being fixed and why before we start.
We check curb flashing, step flashing, and counter-flashing as a full system, not in isolation.
Skylight issues cover a specific range of leak and seal problems — here's our Skylight Repair scope.
We re-flash the full perimeter, not just the section that's visibly failing.
Degraded rubber seals let water in around the glass or dome even when flashing is intact.
We diagnose whether it's actually water intrusion or a ventilation issue before recommending a repair.
When the skylight unit itself has failed — cracked glass, fogged double-pane seals — we replace it to current code.
Adding a skylight to a Destrehan home involves structural and flashing considerations beyond just cutting a hole in the roof.
