Skylight Repair in Fargo, ND
A leaking or damaged skylight is one of the most common sources of water intrusion we find on Fargo area roofs. What looks like a small drip around your skylight frame is almost always a sign of failed flashing, deteriorated sealing, or a cracked skylight unit that has been letting water in for longer than you realize. At Roof Keepers we diagnose skylight issues accurately, fix the actual source of the problem, and restore a watertight seal so you are not dealing with the same issue next season.
Why Skylight Leaks Are More Serious Than They Look
Water that gets past a failing skylight seal does not just drip onto your floor. It soaks into your roof decking, insulation, and framing before you ever see it inside your home. By the time a homeowner in West Fargo, Moorhead, or south Fargo notices a stain on their ceiling near a skylight the water has usually been sitting in their roof assembly for weeks or months. We use CompanyCam to document exactly what we find so you can see the full scope of the damage before we recommend any repairs.
Common Skylight Repair Issues We Fix in Fargo
Failed flashing is the most common cause of skylight leaks in the FM area. Step flashing and counter flashing that was improperly installed or has deteriorated over time allows water to run behind the skylight frame and into your roof assembly.
Deteriorated sealing around the skylight frame and curb allows air and moisture infiltration that worsens with every Fargo freeze-thaw cycle.
Cracked or fogged skylight glazing that has lost its integrity and is allowing direct water penetration or condensation buildup inside the unit.
Damaged or missing ice and water barrier around the skylight perimeter that leaves the decking exposed to moisture during snowmelt and ice dam events.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: How do I know if my skylight is leaking or if it is condensation?
A: Condensation forms on the interior glass surface and does not cause structural damage. An actual leak will show up as water staining on your ceiling or walls near the skylight, or visible moisture in your attic around the skylight frame. If you are unsure call us for a complimentary inspection and we will tell you exactly what is happening.
Q: Can a skylight leak be repaired or does the whole unit need to be replaced?
A: Most skylight leaks are caused by failed flashing or deteriorated sealing and can be repaired without replacing the unit. If the skylight glazing itself is cracked or the frame is structurally compromised replacement may be necessary. We will give you an honest assessment of which approach makes more sense for your situation.
