Skylights are indeed a very good way to decorate your interiors. But, it would be really bothersome to look at dirty or leaking skylights. However, it does not mean that you need to panic and start climbing the roof to fix it. There are other reasons as well, which must be considered in case of a leaking skylight. Observe the skylight from the inside and ascertain whether the leak is actually because of a crack or not. If the skylight is installed in a bathroom, then you should see if the drops are a result of the condensed water that is accumulated over the interior glass surface. In such a case there is no skylight repair involved at all. If you have a ventilating skylight, then you should check for any gaps formed due to incomplete closure of the skylight glass, which causes the water to drip whenever it rains. If you still can’t find the source of the leak from the inside, it’s time to take the skylight repair inspection outside. Check for cracks or any minute gaps between the shingles and misplaced nails. On failing to locate the problem, you need to call a skylight repair expert immediately to locate and check the defect.
