Skylights done right by roofers, not window installers

Core Armour Exteriors Inc. installs, replaces, and repairs skylights across Calgary - and because we're roofers first, we get the one detail that matters most exactly right: the flashing and waterproofing where the skylight meets your roof.

A skylight is only as good as its seal, and most skylight leaks aren't the window's fault at all; they're a flashing failure at the curb. We treat every skylight as part of the roof system, so it brings in daylight for years without bringing in water.

Whether you're adding natural light or fixing a unit that's letting you down, we handle it end to end.

Skylight installation

Adding a new skylight to brighten a dark room, hallway, or stairwell.

Skylight replacement

Skylight repair

Roof-integrated flashing

Replacement during re-roofing

The ideal, most cost-effective time to install or upgrade skylights.

Why the flashing is everything

A skylight leak is almost never a leak through the glass - it's water finding its way in around the frame where the skylight ties into the roof. That connection has to be built as a layered, watertight system: ice-and-water shield wrapped up the curb, step and head flashing lapped correctly with the shingles, and everything integrated so water sheds over the top rather than sneaking underneath.

Get that detail wrong and even a brand-new skylight will stain your ceiling. Because we install and repair roofs every day, we build that flashing detail the right way - the same waterproofing logic we apply to every valley and chimney on the roof.

Repairing a leaking skylight

A leaking skylight rarely fixes itself, and the longer it drips the more damage it does to your drywall, insulation, and framing. We diagnose the real cause - worn flashing, a failed seal, cracked glazing, or condensation being mistaken for a leak - and repair it at the source.

In some cases a reseal and new flashing solves it completely; in others, an older or fogged unit is better replaced than patched. Either way, we'll tell you honestly which repair makes sense rather than selling you a new skylight you don't need.

Perfect timing

The best time to add a skylight is during a re-roof

If you're already replacing your roof, that's the ideal moment to add or upgrade a skylight. The shingles are off, the deck is exposed, and the flashing can be woven seamlessly into the new roof system.

A cleaner install

The flashing integrates into the new roof system for a better, longer-lasting seal.

A lower combined cost

Doing both jobs together costs less than installing a skylight on its own later.

Better light & comfort

Modern, energy-efficient glazing brightens the room, cuts winter heat loss, and reduces summer glare.
