Skylight Repairs
Incorporating skylights into your home is an easy way to boost aesthetics and energy efficiency. Skylights also help bring in more natural light into your home and complement fixtures. However, skylights can often create several issues if left without proper maintenance or repair.
Do you own skylights and have suddenly begun to experience energy loss or water intrusion? Your skylights might need repairs. Master Roofers is going to provide you with the essential information when it comes to owning skylights and what the repair process looks like.
Benefits of Skylights
There's a lot to love about skylights. Take a look at why so many homeowners choose to install more than one skylight in their homes:
No Leaks
Master Roofers has a variety of skylights to choose from, including flashing kits that are used to eliminate the chances of leaks.
Natural Light
Skylights allow you to bring in more natural light into your home, illuminating rooms that are otherwise dark.
Cost Effective
Whether it's the circulation of fresh air or using natural light as your light source, skylights can save you money on your monthly bills.
Ventilation
Another benefit of skylights is their ventilation abilities. Simply pop open a skylight to circulate air throughout your home.

Signs Your Skylight Might Need Repairs
Not sure if your skylights need repair? Listed below are the most common signs that your skylights need repairs:
Water leaks are one of the main signs you need a skylight repair. If water stains start to manifest on your walls and ceiling near your skylights, it's most likely due to cracks, damaged flashing, or worn-out seals. Investigate the issue promptly.
Some condensation on your skylights is completely normal, but excessive condensation is a legitimate concern. Whether it's due to poor insulation or a worn seal, excessive condensation can turn into mold and ruin the structural integrity of the skylight. Mold and the compromised structure of your skylight are not something to be taken lightly.
While skylights provide your home with several benefits, they still function as protection from the elements. Visible damage such as broken or chipped glass, cracks, and broken seals prevent the skylight from keeping wind, rain, hail, and everything in between outside.
Noticing unusual drafts and fluctuations in the temperature within your home could indicate broken seals around your skylights. This leads to inconsistent comfort and an impact on your home's energy efficiency, possibly leading to higher energy bills.
The components responsible for the functionality of your skylights, such as seals, can wear out over time. If your skylight is nearing 15 years of age, the seals may begin to degrade. Degraded seals lead to water leaks and drafts.
