Chilliwack Skylight Repair (Residential or Commercial)

 Skylights can be a beautiful addition to a residential or commercial building, providing natural light and enhancing the overall aesthetic. However, they can also be a source of headaches if they start to leak or become damaged. As a owner or property manager, it’s important to understand the signs that your skylights may need attention and know what to do about it.  

As one of the most common roof leaks, skylights need to be repaired or replaced over time. The plastic, glass or “plexi-glass” skylight on your roof can crack and leak pretty easily.

Three specific types of skylights are fixed, tubular and ventilating (also known as “roof windows”). All of these need to be properly flashed to prevent water from leaking in. Boxed skylights should have head, stepped and bottom flashing installed to keep it watertight.

A self flashing skylight is most commonly recommended by reputable roofing companies. This type comes as one package directly from the manufacturer. We will always use a flashing kit for other types of skylight installations.

We only use quality skylight manufactures and brands like Velux, Farko and Solatube. More than just an additional source of light, these fixed and motorized skylights shield you from the elements outside. Tints, shades and UV protection films can be added as well.
