Skylights
Older dome skylights on curbs are everywhere in Albuquerque. Leaks show up where the curb meets the roof, at cracked domes, and at failed seals between the dome and the frame. Fixes range from resealing and coating the curb to replacing the skylight and reflashing it properly.
Swamp coolers
Evaporative coolers sit on stands on many flat roofs. They leak water from overflows and bleed lines, the stand legs puncture or wear the roof, the duct opening needs a sound curb, and service visits mean foot traffic. We seal the duct curb, protect under the stand legs, route drain lines to a canale, and add walk pads.
Switching to refrigerated air? The old cooler opening needs to be properly decked over and roofed, not just covered.

Each one gets sealed and coated or flashed to match the roof system.

Common questions
Should I replace my old skylight?
If the dome is cracked, cloudy or the frame is failing, replacement during a roof repair is often smart.
Do swamp coolers damage roofs?
They can: leaking water, legs wearing through, and foot traffic. Proper curbs, pads and drain routing prevent most of it.
Can you work around solar panels?
Yes. For major roof work, panels are usually removed and reset by a solar company; we coordinate.
