7 Selecting The Most Reliable Skylight Design... The last thing you want with a new skylight is leaks! Selecting the right skylight design for your roof is the best way to assure many years of reliable, weathertight protection. Step-Flashed design Of the three basic skylight designs, each has its advantages, but only the stepflashed design avoids the key design flaw that can cause leaks. Best & Advantages: Designed specifically for shingle roofs; metal Safest Leak Protection! step-flashing protects against leaks and should outlast roof; no maintenance required Disadvantages: Takes slightly longer to install Curb-Mounted design Advantages: May be required by building code in certain limited areas Disadvantages: Designed for flat (not shingle) roofs; no weather seal at the curb; typically uses cheap tar paper (which disintegrates over time) to seal against leakage; often requires ongoing maintenance Flange-Mounted design Advantages: Installs quickly Disadvantages: Relies on common roof cement (which lasts only about 5 years) to seal against leaks; requires ongoing maintenance Quick Tip: The most cost-effective time to add skylights is when you are having your roof replaced.
