A skylight leak is nearly always the flashing rather than the glass, and New York metro.
At a glance
- Replace a skylight while the roof is off. Doing it later costs far more.
- A proper flashing kit made for that unit beats any amount of sealant.
- Condensation running down the inside is a ventilation problem, not a leak.
- Most skylights have a shorter service life than the roof around them.

Common questions
Should I replace a skylight during a reroof
If it is more than about fifteen years old, yes. Doing it later means opening a roof you just paid for.
Why does my skylight drip without rain
That is usually condensation. The glass is the coldest surface in the room and household humidity collects on it.
