Commercial Skylight Maintenance
Protect Your Investment. Preserve Performance. Prevent Costly Repairs.
Commercial skylights that are 10 or more years old should have regular, proactive maintenance to protect structural integrity, prevent leaks, maintain energy efficiency, and ensure long-term safety.
Because these systems are complex — including glass panels, seals, framing, drainage systems, and sometimes mechanical ventilation — maintenance should be performed on a quarterly, seasonal, and annual basis.
We offer professional inspection and maintenance services to keep your skylight system performing at its best year-round.

Why Skylight Maintenance Matters
A roof is a building’s first line of defense against the elements. Rooftop skylights are in direct contact with sometimes harsh elements day and night. Routine maintenance helps prevent:
- Water leaks and interior damage
- Mold growth from trapped moisture
- Structural frame corrosion
- Energy loss from failed seals
- Glass failure from stress or damage
- Costly full-system repairs
Proactive service protects both your building and your investment.
Quarterly Maintenance
Regular inspections help identify issues early and prevent long-term damage.
Visual Inspections
- Check for cracks or chips in glass panels
- Look for water stains or discoloration around frames
- Inspect interior ceiling areas for leaks or condensation
- Check sealant lines for gaps or deterioration
Debris Removal
Remove leaves, dirt, and debris from:
- Exterior glass surfaces
- Drainage channels
- Gutters around the atrium
Condensation Monitoring
- Monitor for excessive interior moisture
- Identify potential ventilation or seal failure
Seasonal Maintenance – Preparing for Changing Weather Conditions
Spring Maintenance (Post-Winter Inspection)
- Inspect for freeze/thaw damage
- Check seal shrinkage or cracking
- Clear clogged drains from winter debris
- Inspect metal framing for corrosion
Fall Maintenance (Pre-Winter Preparation)
- Ensure drainage systems are clear
- Check weatherproofing and flashing
- Inspect snow-load supports (in cold climates)
