When dealing with a leaking skylight, the best professional to call is a licensed, insured roofing contractor or a specialized skylight installation company. Because a skylight is an integrated component of your overall roofing system, roofers possess the specialized knowledge required to handle the complex layers of step flashing, counter-flashing, ice and water shields, and roofing shingles that surround the unit. While handymen or general contractors can sometimes assist with minor interior cosmetic repairs or basic caulking, a roofing specialist is essential if the leak involves structural flashing replacement or roof decking repairs. Additionally, hiring a certified roofing professional ensures that the work complies with local building codes and preserves any existing manufacturer or workmanship warranties on your roof.
