A skylight is a hole in your roof, which is exactly why it has to be done right. Installed and flashed correctly, a skylight floods a room with natural light and lasts as long as the roof around it. Installed carelessly, it becomes the single most reliable leak on the house. Mabrey Roofing installs, replaces, and repairs skylights as a roofing job first, with the flashing detail that keeps water out, whether you want new daylight in a dark room or a leaking old unit finally fixed.

A skylight is a hole in your roof, which is exactly why it has to be done right. Installed and flashed correctly, a skylight floods a room with natural light and lasts as long as the roof around it. Installed carelessly, it becomes the single most reliable leak on the house. Mabrey Roofing installs, replaces, and repairs skylights as a roofing job first, with the flashing detail that keeps water out, whether you want new daylight in a dark room or a leaking old unit finally fixed.
We help you site the skylight for the light you want, then plan the cut and flashing before anything opens up.
A skylight lives or dies by its flashing. We detail the curb and step flashing so the opening sheds water like the roof around it.
You get the daylight you wanted and a watertight detail that lasts as long as the roof, not a leak waiting to happen.

Almost always because of flashing, not the skylight itself. A skylight is an opening in the roof, and if the curb and step flashing around it are not detailed correctly, water finds the gap. Most skylight leaks we fix are a flashing problem, which is why we treat skylights as a roofing job.
Usually yes. If a skylight is more than a decade old, replacing it during a reroof means the new unit is flashed into the new roof as one watertight system. Reusing an old skylight under a new roof often just relocates the next leak to the same spot.
An old single-pane unit can. Modern skylights use energy-efficient, often low-E glass that brings in daylight while controlling heat gain, and proper placement matters too. We can walk you through glass options that fit the Triangle's sun.
