Skylight Repair in Bergen County
GAF-Certified Roofing Care for Skylights & the Systems Around Them
A skylight leak rarely starts and stops at the skylight itself. The flashing, the roof underlayment, and the surrounding field of shingles all play a role in keeping water out. At PJ Sullivan Exteriors, we approach every skylight repair in Bergen County as a roofing problem first, diagnosing the full system before we touch a single seal or flashing section.

Signs Your Skylight Needs Attention
Some skylight problems are obvious. Others look like something else entirely. These are the conditions Bergen County homeowners most commonly bring to us:
- Active water intrusion: Staining on interior ceilings or walls near the skylight, especially after heavy rain or snowmelt
- Fogged or cracked glass: Fogging between panes means the insulating seal has failed; cracked glazing compromises both performance and safety
- Flashing deterioration: Visible gaps, rust, or lifting at the metal collar where the skylight meets the roof surface
- Drafts & energy loss: Cold air entering around the frame in winter, or noticeable heat gain in summer
- Condensation buildup: Moisture collecting on the glass or surrounding frame, which can signal seal degradation or inadequate ventilation
Flashing failure is among the most common sources of skylight-related water infiltration, and it’s easy to misdiagnose as a unit defect. That distinction matters when deciding how to fix it.
How We Diagnose & Repair Skylights
Our GAF certification reflects our commitment to roofing best practices across the full system, not just the shingles. When we evaluate a skylight repair, we look at the unit, the curb or frame it sits on, the flashing collar, and the roof surface tying everything together. This integrated view helps prevent the common scenario where a skylight gets “repaired” without addressing the flashing or underlayment issue driving the problem.
We manage the work from initial assessment through completion without handoffs between a roofing crew and a separate skylight contractor. That coordination gap is where problems reappear. Keeping roof and skylight integration under one project lets us catch what a single-trade approach misses.
Bergen County Experience Behind Every Project
PJ Sullivan Exteriors has served Bergen County homeowners since 2006. In that time, we’ve earned a BBB A+ rating, Best of Houzz awards across multiple consecutive years, and placement on Remodeling Magazine’s Top 550 list from 2012 through 2019. Those recognitions reflect consistent performance across hundreds of exterior projects, not a single standout year.
Skylight repair in Bergen County carries climate-specific demands. Freeze-thaw cycles through a New Jersey winter stress flashing joints and sealants in ways that milder climates don’t produce. We account for that in how we specify materials and execute repairs.
Schedule a Skylight Repair Estimate
Every project begins with a consultation where we assess the skylight, the surrounding roof surface, and the flashing system together. You get a clear diagnosis and a defined scope before any work begins.
