Service · A1 Chimney & Roofing
Skylight removal takes the unit out and builds the roof back over the opening. The ceiling is closed too, if there is a shaft. It is the job when the skylight leaks and you do not want it anymore, or when the roof is being replaced and the opening should go away.

The work
The unit and its curb come out, decking is framed across the hole, and the covering is tied in. Old shingles may not be manufactured anymore, so the patch can be visible. You hear that before the skylight comes out. The interior shaft is closed so the attic is not left open to the room.
A skylight you want to keep, that only needs flashing, is a leak repair. A new one is skylight installation.
Why it matters
A leaking skylight is a hole with a reputation. Removing it is sometimes cleaner than flashing a unit that has failed. Replacing the whole roof is not required to close one opening.
The deck that goes back has to be solid. A cover screwed over the dome is not a removal.
What to expect
The opening is looked at from the roof and the room, the close-up is explained with the price, and the limits of matching the old roof are included.
