Leaking Skylight Covered
Signs of a leaking skylight that has been covered
by a plastic tarp. This is a good and a bad sign. The tarp over the
skylight and not the roofing is a clear sign that the skylight itself is
leaking and will need to be repaired or replaced. The roofing might not
be damaged and that's the good sign.
If the plastic was running over the top of the roof ridge and a little
bit wider around the skylight, this could be a sign that the roofing
around the skylight might be damaged.
Again if the homeowner can give you some clues why the plastic tarp is
over the skylight, why not ask to save yourself some time.
Skylights can be expensive to replace or repair.
