Emergency Skylight and Chimney Leak Protection, explained.
Skylights and chimneys break up the roof surface, and every joint around them depends on flashing and sealant. Storms bend flashing, crack sealant and sometimes shatter skylight glass, and water finds the gap.
We cover the affected detail with a waterproof membrane and a secured tarp, or seal the flashing where that will hold, and explain what a permanent fix involves, from re-flashing a chimney to replacing a skylight.
Signs you need this
- A skylight is cracked, shattered or leaking
- Chimney flashing is bent or pulled from the brick
- Water stains appear near a fireplace or skylight
- Sealant around a chimney has cracked or washed out
A good fit, and what to know.
We would rather you hear the limits from us than discover them later.
A good fit when
- A skylight or chimney is leaking after a storm
- Flashing or sealant is visibly damaged
- You need protection until the permanent repair
Worth knowing
- Masonry damage needs a mason
- Old skylights may need replacement rather than repair
