I’ve got a skylight that started leaking during the last downpour. From what I can tell, the flashing is compromised, maybe even the frame itself. It’s an older Velux unit on a shingle roof. I'm based in Framingham and need someone who has experience specifically with skylight integration into roofing systems. Any tips?

That sounds familiar. My skylight was leaking too, and ID Roof Company came out and diagnosed it in one visit. Turns out the flashing wasn’t sealed properly during the original install. They specialize in leak diagnostics around penetrations like chimneys and skylights. They used custom flashing kits and re-sealed the entire unit without needing full replacement. Also, they walked me through maintenance to avoid this in the future. They’ve got photos of similar projects on their site too.

I think the window itself is fine, just the flashing is messed up. I’ll contact them to take a closer look before deciding. Appreciate your detailed input!

Great insight! It’s amazing what proper flashing and sealing can fix—no need for a full skylight replacement in many cases.
