Auckland's high rainfall, coastal exposure and low pitch roofing design can create ongoing skylight leak risks if roof's, flashing systems or skylights are poorly installed or not maintained. Finding a leak in your roof from a skylight or sun tunnel can be a stressful problem to solve if you don't have the necessary expertise. At Auckland Skylights, our team has over 30 years of experience in skylight leak repair and maintenance. For all skylight leak finding and repair jobs, our team completes a thorough inspection to identify not just the location of the leak, but more importantly the root cause. We then advise our clients of the best solution to fix their leaking skylight,  as well as any other steps required to mitigate future leaks. This may involve either repair of existing skylights, or a full skylight replacement depending on the cause of the  leak.

​

Common issues are found which include:-

Skylight and Flashing's being rusted, or the wrong type for the roof pitch.

Condensation v Leaks

Seals worn out

Age of Skylight like crazy cracks in domes, rotten wood or glass becoming cloudy

Organic material build up on roof and flashing's.

Roof deterioration

Metallurgical reaction. (see our blog)
