Skylight Installation & Repair

A skylight brings in natural light, but the flashing and seal around it are also one of the more common places a roof develops a leak. Whether you're adding a new skylight or dealing with one that's staining a ceiling below, the work comes down to a tight opening, correct flashing, and a seal built to move with the roof through Bradenton's heat and rain.

Installation Done Right the First Time

  • Hole Saws & Vent Cutting Jigs — A clean, correctly sized opening in the deck so the unit sits square and the flashing has a true surface to seal against.
  • Portable Sheet Metal Brakes & Tin Snips — Custom step and counter flashing bent and fitted on site rather than forced from stock pieces.
  • Chalk Lines, Levels & Framing Squares — Layout checked before the first cut, so the skylight lands square to the roof plane.
  • Caulking Guns & Heat Guns — Sealant and flashing details applied at the right temperature so they bond instead of failing in a season.

Finding and Fixing an Existing Leak

  • Handheld Infrared Cameras — Thermal scanning that traces water back from a ceiling stain to where it actually entered around the skylight curb.
  • Moisture Meters & Wood Moisture Meters — Readings through decking and framing near the skylight to see how far water has traveled before we open anything up.
  • Landscape Protection Tarps — Plants and walkways covered before any old flashing or glazing comes off.
