Roof Window Repairs for Leaks and Failed Seals
A roof window is a hole in the roof — and like any opening in a roof, the flashing and seals are what keep the water out. Over time the flashing can fail, the seals perish, and the window starts to leak. Left alone, a leaking roof window causes damp, stains, and damage to the roof timbers and the room below.
Roof window repair means diagnosing the leak — usually failed flashing, a perished seal, or a failed installation — and fixing it. That might mean renewing the flashing kit, resealing the window, or repairing the roof around it. Done well, it stops the leak and keeps the daylight without the drips.
Common Roof Window Problems
Leaks around the roof window in heavy rain
Failed or perished seals
Cracked or damaged flashing
Condensation between the panes
Damp or staining below the window
A roof window that won't open or close properly
What's Involved in Roof Window Repair?
1. Tell Us About the Leak
Describe what's happening and where your property is so an inspection can be arranged.
2. Inspect the Window
The roof window, flashing and seals are checked to find the source of the leak.
3. Repair the Fault
The fault is repaired — flashing renewed, seals replaced, or the roof around it repaired.
4. Check for Leaks
The window is checked for a weather-tight seal and confirmed leak-free.
