Roof Repair Smedway's Skylight Repair service covers flashing repair, reseals, and unit replacement across Wilmington, 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.
Skylight Skylight Repair technicians carry manufacturer-specific training for common brands.
Local Wilmington 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.
Moisture meters help confirm whether a leak is active or residual before recommending a fix.
