If you have a skylight, you know how much it can enhance any space. Whether you have a bedroom or bathroom, having access to extra natural light allows you to enjoy better lighting without compromising privacy. If it has been sometime since you’ve sought out roofing maintenance or had your skylight inspected, you may need to watch out for some signs that means your skylight needs repairs. Here are some of the top four signs that it could be time for your skylight to get repaired!
You Feel Wind Drafts Inside
Drafts coming in from your skylight can be an indication that the seal has gone bad. Getting the ceiling repaired around your skylight can be essential to making sure that you keep saving on your energy bills.
Cracks in the Glass or the Inserts
Cracks in the glass or the inserts could lead to a full breakdown of your skylight. Calling an expert immediately is important to make sure that you can prevent bugs from getting in your home!
Condensation
Condensation in or around your skylight can also be an indicator that there is a leak somewhere in the sealant.
Water Leaks
If there’s water leaking from your skylight you need immediate repairs. The water leaking around your skylight can be an indication that there’s a major crack or leak across the skylight construction.
