Our Proven Skylight Repair Process

At Mattsson Roofing, we follow a simple, three-step approach designed to take the stress out of skylight repairs. Here’s how it works:

Diagnosis

We begin with a full inspection of the skylight and surrounding roof area, including the flashing, shingles, and underlayment. Our goal is to identify whether the leak is coming from the skylight itself, the roof integration, or another source. This step gives us a clear picture before we touch a single shingle.

Fix

Once we’ve identified the problem, we’ll give you honest recommendations. Sometimes a targeted repair, like re-flashing or resealing, is all you need. Other times, we’ll explain when a complete skylight replacement makes more sense, especially if the unit is old or structurally compromised. You’ll always know what we’re doing and why.

Follow-Up

After the work is complete, we document everything. You’ll receive clear communication, photos of the work, and transparent estimates. We keep you updated every step of the way so you’re never left wondering what’s happening on your roof.

Our process is built around simplicity and trust. We don’t believe in scare tactics or pushy sales, just straightforward service from a team that treats your home like their own. When we’re done, you’ll have a skylight that’s leak-free, weather-tight, and ready to brighten your home again.

Is Repair or Replacement the Right Move for Your Skylight?

Not all skylight issues are created equal - and neither are the solutions. At Mattsson Roofing, we approach each skylight with one goal in mind: find the most durable, cost-effective way to stop the leak and protect your home.

In some cases, a professional repair is the right move. If the skylight itself is in good condition, our team can often correct the problem by resealing joints, replacing worn flashing, or addressing minor damage to surrounding shingles. These targeted repairs restore watertight protection without the need for a full replacement.

However, there are times when repairing an aging skylight is like putting a bandage on a bigger problem. Once a skylight’s frame or glazing starts to fail, or if the original installation wasn’t properly integrated into the roofing system, the odds of recurring leaks increase. Every time those roof materials are lifted for another “quick fix,” new vulnerabilities can form around the opening.

That’s why, for many homeowners, replacing an old skylight is the smarter investment. Modern units are designed as complete systems - with pre-fabricated flashing, superior insulation, and long warranties that give you peace of mind for years to come. You’re not just avoiding future leaks; you’re upgrading the comfort, energy efficiency, and value of your home.

Whether your skylight just needs attention or deserves an upgrade, we’ll walk you through both options clearly and honestly. You’ll get our professional recommendation and a solution built to last through every season in New Jersey.

Our Reviews

I hired Mattsson to do repairs around my chimney and vent pipe. A different contractor did a less than stellar job sealing these areas, and they had started letting in some water. These company did a very thorough inspection and quote. The crew was very professional and communicated well throughout the repair process. The repairs look neat and well done. Would recommend.

Excellent job! Eric was so clear and easily communicated with us pricing and the steps/materials required to remove our damaged roof and add a new roof. Mattsson was the only roofer that went up on our roof to inspect before giving us his quote- Eric's attention to detail really made the difference. His team was extremely efficient and very careful not to damage our flowers/landscaping. The whole process to replace the roof and gutters took about 3 days- amazing considering the incredible improvement to the look of our home. We Highly recommend Mattsson

Exceptional service, very professional. They replaced a skylight for us on a steep, high roof. Many other roofers didn’t want to do the job or wanted to charge an exorbitant price. Mattson got it done in 1.5 days at a reasonable cost. They made an extra effort to provide drone pictures of the in-progress and finished work, clean up any debris and nails (with a magnet), and resolved any issues quickly and efficiently.

From start to finish my experience with Mattsson Roofing was excellent. Everyone conducted themselves with professionalism and respect. The work was done in an extremely time sensitive and efficient manner. My new roof and gutter system look beautiful and will serve our home into the future. Many thanks to all the crew at Mattsson for the exemplary job. I highly recommend this company to anyone who needs a roofing contractor.
