About this service
What Skylight Leak Repair Aberdeen WA actually involves
Skylight leak repair Aberdeen WA is the process of finding and sealing the exact point where water enters around a roof window, then restoring the weatherproofing so it holds through a Grays Harbor County winter. It is not just a bead of caulk. We check the sealant bed, the curb flashing, the glazing gasket, and the framing for rot. Most leaks we see come from skylight seal failure, not the glass itself.
Aberdeen gets rain more days than not, and that constant moisture punishes skylights faster than almost any other roof detail. A small drip you notice in October can mean saturated insulation and ceiling water stains by January. If you search for skylight leak repair near me Aberdeen, you want someone who can get on the roof before the next storm. We do that, and we test the repair with a hose before we pack up.

What's included
What our skylight leak repair includes
Every skylight repair starts with a full leak trace, not a guess. Here is what is covered in a standard visit, and what we quote separately if we find it.
✓
Roof and attic inspection
We inspect the skylight curb, glazing, flashing, and surrounding shingles from the roof, then check the attic side with a moisture meter and infrared thermal camera. You get photos of everything we find.
✓
Hose test to confirm the source
A hose test kit applies controlled water at the skylight while we watch inside. This confirms the exact entry point so we are not sealing the wrong spot and leaving the real leak running.
✓
Flashing and sealant replacement
We remove failed sealant, replace damaged flashing or gaskets, and re-bed the skylight with Henry Company or Sika sealant. Ice and water shield goes under new flashing where the deck allows.
✓
Post-repair verification
After the repair, we re-run the hose test and check the attic for any new moisture. If a drop shows up, we keep working until it is dry. You see the result before we leave.
✓
Written warranty and photos
You receive the workmanship warranty terms in writing plus before-and-after photos of the repair. If the same spot leaks within the warranty window, we come back and fix it.
How it works
Our skylight leak repair process, step by step
01
Phone triage
You describe where the water shows up and when it started. We ask about the skylight age, roof type, and whether the drip follows heavy rain or shows up in dry spells. That five-minute call usually tells us whether it is a seal, flashing, or condensation problem before we ever climb up.
02
Roof and attic inspection
A technician inspects the skylight curb, flashing, and glazing on the roof, then checks the attic side with a moisture meter and infrared thermal camera. We photograph what we find. This takes 30 to 45 minutes on a typical Aberdeen home.
03
Leak source confirmation
We do not seal anything until we know where the water enters. A hose test kit lets us apply controlled water at the skylight while a second person watches inside. If the leak is actually coming from chimney flashing or a valley, we find that out now, not after you have paid for the wrong repair.
04
Repair and reseal
We remove failed sealant with a pry bar and utility knife, replace damaged flashing or gasket, and re-bed the skylight with Henry Company or Sika sealant. Ice and water shield goes under new flashing where the deck allows. Most repairs take two to four hours.
05
Test and walkthrough
We re-run the hose test, check the attic for any new moisture, and walk you through the repair with photos. You get the warranty terms in writing and a plain answer on what to watch for over the next few weeks.
Tools & methods
Tools and methods we use on skylight leaks
Purpose-built equipment, used by trained technicians — so the job is done accurately the first time.
Infrared thermal camera
Reads temperature differences in the ceiling and attic to show where water is actually traveling, even when the stain is far from the skylight.
Moisture meter
Confirms wet framing, insulation, and drywall so we know how far the leak has spread before we start sealing.
Hose test kit
Applies controlled water at the skylight while we watch inside, confirming the exact entry point before and after the repair.
Ladder stabilizer and pitch hoist
Keeps our crew safe and stable on steep Aberdeen roof pitches while working around the skylight curb.
Caulking gun with Henry Company and Sika sealants
Applies coastal-rated sealant to a clean, prepared surface so the skylight seal bonds properly and lasts.
Pry bar and utility knife
Removes failed sealant, old flashing, and damaged shingles without tearing up the surrounding roof.
Roof inspection drone
Surveys hard-to-reach skylights and roof sections safely, especially on steep or storm-damaged roofs.
Real results
Before and after.
Ferryhill skylight reseal stops ceiling stain
Before
A Ferryhill homeowner had a spreading ceiling stain under a 20-year-old skylight. Two previous caulk patches had failed, and the drip returned with every storm.
After
We stripped the old sealant, replaced the curb flashing, and re-bedded the skylight with coastal-rated sealant. The hose test ran clean, and the ceiling stayed dry through the next three storms.
Rosemount emergency tarp to permanent repair
Before
Water was running into a Rosemount bedroom during a storm, with the skylight dripping steadily onto the carpet. The homeowner called at night.
After
We tarped the skylight within a few hours, then returned two days later to replace the failed flashing and gasket. The permanent repair passed a hose test, and the bedroom ceiling dried without further damage.
Aberdeen City Centre metal roof skylight re-flash
Before
A metal roof skylight in Aberdeen City Centre leaked every winter. Sealant had cracked from years of expansion and contraction, and the attic insulation was damp.
After
We re-flashed the skylight with compatible metal roof components, replaced the sealant, and dried the attic side. The next winter brought no drips and no new ceiling stains.
Problems we solve
Skylight problems we solve for Aberdeen homes
Most skylight leaks trace back to one of a handful of failures. Here is what we see most often on Aberdeen roofs and how we fix each one.
Ask a pro →↗
Damaged or lifted curb flashing
We replace the flashing, integrate new ice and water shield, and re-secure it to manufacturer spec. This is the repair most likely to be missed by a quick caulk job.
Clogged gutters backing water under the skylight
We clear the gutters and downpipes, check the skylight channel, and reseal any detail the standing water has damaged. Gutter leak repair often goes hand in hand with this fix.
Roof moss growth holding moisture at the curb
We remove the moss, treat the roof, and reseal the skylight detail. Roof moss removal and leak treatment is the maintenance step that keeps the repair from failing early.

Customer reviews
What Aberdeen customers say
★★★★★
“Our skylight had been dripping into the hallway for weeks and two other roofers just caulked it. These guys found the real problem was the flashing, not the seal. They replaced it, hose-tested it, and we have had zero drips through two big rainstorms since. Worth every penny.”

“Called on a Sunday with water coming through the ceiling under our skylight. They had a tarp on it within a couple hours and came back Monday to do the permanent repair. Straight answers on price, no runaround, and the ceiling stain has not grown since.”

“We have an older house with a metal roof and a skylight that leaked every winter. They re-flashed the curb, replaced the sealant with something rated for coastal weather, and showed me photos of the whole job. First dry winter in four years.”

Priya S.Homeowner, Aberdeen City Centre
✓ VerifiedMost skylight leak repairs in Aberdeen run $350 to $900 in 2026, depending on roof access and whether flashing or framing needs replacement. A simple reseal is at the low end. A repair that requires new flashing, ice and water shield, or deck repair pushes toward the top. We give you the number before we start.
You repair a skylight leak by locating the entry point first, then replacing failed sealant, gasket, or flashing rather than caulking over the symptom. On Aberdeen roofs, that usually means re-bedding the skylight curb with Henry Company or Sika sealant and checking the surrounding shingles. A hose test confirms the fix before the job is closed out.
We do. Aberdeen Roof Leak Repair Pros handles skylight leak fixing across 98520 and Grays Harbor County, including Ferryhill, Torry, and Rosemount. We are licensed, insured, and set up for same-day and emergency calls. One phone call gets a technician on your roof, usually the same day.
The most common cause is skylight seal failure, where the sealant bed or glazing gasket dries out and cracks after years of coastal rain and UV exposure. Damaged flashing, clogged gutters backing water up under the curb, and roof moss growth are close behind. Condensation on a cold skylight can also look like a leak, so we check both sides.
