Active Skylight Leaks
Water stains, dripping or damp drywall can point to failed flashing, roof damage, seals or drainage details.
Natural Light Without a Compromised Roof
Skylight Installation & Repair in Farmington, NM
Magic Roofing installs, repairs and replaces skylights with the roof—not just the window—in mind. We evaluate the skylight, flashing, surrounding roofing and interior leak evidence to identify the right fix for homes and qualifying commercial properties.
New Skylight Installation
Placement, curb or deck mounting and roof integration planned as one system.
Leak Diagnosis & Repair
We inspect flashing, seals, roofing and drainage before recommending a fix.
Skylight Replacement
Aging, cracked, fogged or inefficient units can be replaced during repair or reroofing.
Roof-System Integration
Underlayment, flashing and roofing details are matched to the roof assembly.
Straight Answers First
A Skylight Leak Is Not Always Coming Through the Skylight
Water can enter through failed flashing, damaged roofing above the opening, deteriorated seals, an improperly built curb or condensation inside the home. Treating the visible stain without identifying the entry point can leave the real problem untouched.
Magic Roofing evaluates the complete roof-to-skylight connection. That matters because a lasting repair depends on directing water around the opening and back onto the roof surface correctly.
What the Service Covers
Skylight Problems We Inspect and Correct
The same symptom can have several causes. Our evaluation looks beyond surface caulk to determine how the skylight and roof assembly are actually performing.
Damaged Flashing
Loose, corroded, incomplete or improperly layered flashing can allow water into the roof opening.
Fogged or Cloudy Glass
Moisture between panes commonly signals a failed insulated-glass seal and may require unit replacement.
Cracked Domes or Glazing
Impact, age and temperature stress can damage acrylic domes, glass or surrounding skylight components.
Condensation Concerns
Interior moisture may come from indoor humidity, poor insulation or air leakage rather than rainwater entry.
Reroofing Coordination
Roof replacement is the right time to assess an older skylight and rebuild its flashing into the new system.
Built for Four Corners Conditions
Skylights Must Handle Intense Sun, Wind, Snow and Fast-Moving Storms
Farmington and the Four Corners bring strong UV exposure, wide temperature swings, wind-driven rain and seasonal snow. Those conditions punish exposed seals and make correct flashing especially important.
A properly planned skylight uses layered water protection—not a bead of sealant as the primary defense. The roof pitch, roofing material, opening size and manufacturer requirements all affect the installation.

Frequently Asked Questions
Questions About Skylight Installation & Repair
How do I know whether my skylight needs repair or replacement?
A repair may be appropriate when the unit is sound and the problem is isolated to flashing or nearby roofing. Cracked glazing, failed insulated glass, recurring leaks, warped frames and advanced age often make replacement the better long-term decision.
Why is my skylight leaking when it rains?
Common causes include failed or incorrectly layered flashing, damaged roofing, blocked drainage channels, deteriorated seals or problems with the skylight curb. An inspection is needed because the water may enter above the visible stain.
Why does my skylight have moisture on the inside?
Interior condensation can form when warm, humid indoor air reaches a cold skylight surface. Air leakage, insulation and ventilation should be considered before assuming the moisture is a roof leak.
Should I replace an older skylight when replacing my roof?
It is often smart to evaluate it at the same time. Replacing an aging unit during reroofing allows the new flashing and underlayment to be integrated directly into the new roof and avoids disturbing fresh roofing later.
Can you install a skylight in an existing roof?
Yes, when the roof structure, pitch, interior layout and selected skylight allow it. The opening, shaft, mounting method, flashing and interior finish requirements should all be reviewed before work begins.
Where does Magic Roofing provide skylight service?
Farmington and San Juan County are the primary local market, with qualifying Four Corners projects reviewed based on location and project scope.
