storm clouds heading at me....tenant showed me the ceiling stain in the Master Bath above the sink...and said there's a problem with the Skylite on right side of roof..
skylight was fine...no leaks...the crack in the glass is the very thin Plexi panel on the ceiling side (a dust cover) and poses no problem.
this is the DWV seal next to the skylight......improper size. It should have been a 1 1/4" boot...but they put a 2" boot there and it has no seal the way it is......
checked all other boots...
HERE is the problem child on the Master Bath ceiling....shame on the roofers! They must have ran out of boots....so they 'simulated' a boot by flipping a shingle upside down, and then just 'smearing' the roof tar all around the pipe to look like a black boot housing.... You can see the tar that is cracked from the scorching sun....it leaked right down into the ceiling below.....
topside view...
you can see the outline of the stain on ceilng and wall
this is the skylight tunnel from inside....they just sprayed the texture all over the metal frame instead of taping it off...now it's peeling off the frame......no problem. It will continue to peel with condensation in the future until it's all off....
no defect here...normal metal frame....but they textured over it and now it 'looks' like a crack.......
sealed up all boots
this boot is now good for years to come with the tri-polymer sealant.......we will send an invoice for the sealing of the boots...and proposal for the replacement of the MISSING boot housing and repairing the ceiling stain..........
