This homeowner inherited this homemade skylight from the previous owner. An ice dam two winters ago left some damage to the area around it as well. This resulted in the problem in the image you see below.
Skylight Problems
As you can see, the homeowner also attempted a quick fix by using incorrect insulation around the skylight to minimize leaks along with patching up a section of the roof.
Sunset Roofing Solution
The homeowner contacted us and we sent our experts over. We installed a new Velux skylight with 20-year leak free warranty and repaired that patch of roofing. Our team also installed a new vent box and flashing kit. A new ice shield was installed to help prevent ice dams in the future, and any rotted roof decking was replaced.
Afterward is a perfect installation with new roof decking. The result is so seamless you don’t know which part of the roof was replaced.
The new vent box matches the roof and it doesn’t stick out like the old one did.
With a new fixed skylight that lets in light without the rain/snow finding its way in, we left the job with a very happy customer!
