<p>A properly installed skylight requires correct flashing integration with your roofing material to avoid leaks — this is one area where installation quality matters more than the skylight product itself.</p>
<p>A roof doesn't work in isolation — siding, gutters, fascia, and windows all work together to keep water moving away from your home rather than into it. Problems in one area often show up as damage in another, which is why it's worth looking at your exterior as a connected system rather than a list of separate projects.</p>
<p>The practical takeaway is to think about timing — if more than one exterior element needs attention in the next year or two, it's worth getting a combined assessment rather than addressing each one separately as it fails.</p>
<p>If you're already planning a roof replacement, that's often the most cost-effective time to add a skylight.</p>
