Skylight leaks
Most leaking skylights don't need replacing. The flashing kit around them does. We reflash and reseal, and only tell you to replace the unit when the glass seal or frame is genuinely gone.

Sterling Heights roofs are newer and more complicated than the ranch stock further south, and that shifts where they fail. We repair those failures and nothing else — we don't sell replacements, so the answer you get is the honest one.
Much of Sterling Heights was built between 1970 and 1995: two-storey colonials with steeper pitches, multiple gables, bay window roofs, and far more skylights than you find in Warren or Westland. More roof planes means more intersections, and every intersection is a place water has to be deliberately routed. Newer doesn't mean simpler — it usually means more places to get it wrong.
What we find here
Most leaking skylights don't need replacing. The flashing kit around them does. We reflash and reseal, and only tell you to replace the unit when the glass seal or frame is genuinely gone.
Multi-gable roofs concentrate a lot of water into short valleys. When the underlayment in one of them gives out, the ceiling stain can appear a room away from the actual fault.
Rubber pipe boots crack at almost exactly the two-decade mark, which is where a great many Sterling Heights roofs are right now. It's a cheap repair and one of the most common leaks we fix in this city.
Utica border neighbourhoods, Plumbrook, Dodge Park, Delia, Clinton River Road, and the subdivisions off Schoenherr, Ryan, Dequindre, Fifteen Mile and Eighteen Mile.
We're a service-area business, so there's no office for you to drive to — we come to the house. Most leak calls in Sterling Heights are scheduled within 48 hours, and emergency tarping is available if water is actively coming in.
Repairs don't require a permit in Sterling Heights. If a roofer tells you otherwise about a straightforward repair, get a second opinion before you sign anything.
Every repair in Sterling Heights carries the same terms as everywhere else we work: a flat price quoted before work starts, a photo report of the finished job, and a written warranty on the invoice — one year on spot repairs, three years on slope work, five on flashing.
