Skylight Installation, Replacement and Repair
Skylights bring daylight into homes with tight lots and few windows, which describes a lot of San Francisco. They are also one of the most common sources of roof leaks, and most of those leaks are flashing failures, not the glass.
Ascender Roofing Solutions installs, replaces, repairs and reflashes skylights on shingle and flat roofs across San Francisco and the Peninsula.
What we do
Skylight installation
We install new skylights on shingle and flat roofs. Framing, flashing and interior finish are scoped in your written proposal, so you know exactly what is included.
Skylight replacement
Old, fogged, cracked or leaking skylights are replaced with new units, including VELUX skylights, and new flashing. Replacing the flashing with the unit is what keeps the new skylight dry.
Solar-powered skylights
Venting skylights that open and close on solar power need no wiring to the house. They are a good fit for kitchens and bathrooms that need light and fresh air.
Skylight repair and reflashing
Most skylight leaks come from failed flashing around the frame. We install new step and counter flashing and underlayment around the skylight. Reflashing is often done during a reroof, and we also do it as a standalone repair. Roof repair →
