• Check for active leaks

• An active leak does not necessarily mean water pouring down from a
  ceiling. Inspect your ceiling for visual signs of water damage in a form of
  a stain or discoloration.

• Hail and wind damage

• Environmental factors impact the condition of your roof. Old or improperly
  installed roofs are especially prone to wind and hail damage. Visually
  inspect your roof from the ground (within line of sight) for missing or lifted
  shingles, missing vents, or signs of animal damage

• Mouldy wall flashing

• Check for mold where the roof connects to the exterior wall

• Damaged or clogged gutters

• Gutters are a gateway for water from your roof. Damaged, clogged or
  improperly installed gutters can cause water to overflow and go under your shingles and to your house.

  
  

In a perfect world, no skylight would leak for a lifetime. Unfortunately, improper installation and maintenance are some of the most common reasons for roof skylight damage in the Greater Toronto Area. Installation issues, lack of maintenance, shingle failure, or skylight flashing damage, are the most common causes of leaks around the skylight that result in significant water damage to skylight framing, plywood, insulation, ceiling, and possibly your belongings.

A damaged skylight can pose a significant risk to roof integrity and house safety. It is important to properly diagnose the source of damage around the skylight and fix it as soon as possible. Skylight maintenance is essential to prolong the life of a skylight and prevent roof damage. However, it could be tricky if attempted by an untrained professional since it is not safe, and some damage is hard to see by an untrained eye.

If you suspect your skylight has been compromised, contact trusted roofing professionals to fix the problem as soon as possible in order to prevent further damage.
