Skylight Repair Melbourne FL: Fixing Leaks, Foggy Glass and Storm Damage
Skylight Repair · Melbourne FL · Brevard County
A skylight brings in beautiful Florida light, right up until it starts dripping onto your floor. Most skylight leaks are not the glass, they are the flashing and seals around it. H&H Roofing repairs skylight leaks and storm damage across Melbourne FL — licensed, insured, and experienced with every common skylight type.
Skylights are one of the most common sources of roof leaks in Florida homes, because they add a seam and a set of flashings right in the middle of the roof field. Under constant UV, heavy rain, and storm wind, those seals and flashings are the first things to fail. The good news is that most skylight leaks are a repair, not a full replacement, when they are caught early.
H&H Roofing has repaired skylights across Melbourne FL and Brevard County for over 30 years. Here is why skylights leak, what a proper repair involves, and when replacement is the smarter move.

Skylight Repair Melbourne FL | H&H Roofing
Skylight leaks almost always trace back to one of these points, and H&H Roofing checks all of them on every inspection:
Failed Flashing
The metal flashing that seals the skylight to the roof is the number one leak source. It lifts and corrodes over time.
Dried, Cracked Seals
The rubber and sealant around the frame dry out and crack under Florida UV, opening a path for water.
Foggy or Cracked Glass
Condensation between panes means the glass seal has failed; cracked glazing from debris lets water straight in.
Storm and Debris Damage
Wind-driven debris cracks domes and lenses, and storm wind lifts flashing that was already aging.
Skylight Repair or Replacement?
Most skylight problems are a straightforward repair. Replacement makes sense in specific cases:
Repair when the leak is from flashing or dried seals and the skylight unit itself is sound. Reflashing and resealing solves most leaks.
Replace when the glass seal has failed (foggy panes), the frame is cracked, or the skylight is old and you are already replacing the roof around it.
Always replace flashing during a re-roof. Reusing old skylight flashing on a new roof is a common shortcut that leads to leaks within a year.
Do not wait on a skylight leak. Water entering at a skylight runs into the ceiling and wall cavity fast. If you have an active drip, H&H Roofing offers same-day emergency service across Melbourne FL.
Frequently Asked Questions: Skylight Repair in Melbourne FL
Why is my skylight leaking?
Most skylight leaks come from failed flashing or dried, cracked seals around the frame, not the glass itself. In Florida, UV and storm wind wear these out first. H&H Roofing can pinpoint the source at a free inspection. Call (321) 704-2174.
Can a leaking skylight be repaired, or does it need replacing?
Most leaks are a repair, reflashing and resealing solves the majority of them. Replacement is usually only needed when the glass seal has failed, the frame is cracked, or you are re-roofing around an old unit.
Why is my skylight foggy on the inside?
Fog or condensation between the panes means the sealed glass unit has failed. That specific problem calls for replacing the skylight glass or unit rather than resealing the flashing.
Should I replace my skylight when I replace my roof?
At minimum the flashing should always be replaced during a re-roof. If the skylight is old or its seal is failing, replacing the unit at the same time is far cheaper than doing it separately later.
