Yes, professional roofers frequently install, repair, and replace skylights as part of their comprehensive roofing services. Because installing a skylight requires cutting through the roof deck, modifying rafters, and integrating complex flashing kits with existing shingles and waterproof underlayments, roofers possess the precise technical expertise required to ensure a watertight installation. While some specialized carpentry or glass companies also handle skylights, hiring a licensed roofing contractor is often the best choice because they understand how the skylight interacts with the entire roofing system. They can ensure that the step flashing, counter-flashing, and ice and water shields are layered correctly to prevent future leaks. Furthermore, if you are planning a full roof replacement, coordinating with your roofer to install brand-new skylights at the same time guarantees optimal warranty protection and seamless structural integration.
