Sun Tunnel Repair & Service

Ottawa’s trusted experts in sun tunnel repair and service, restoring natural light and ensuring your home stays bright, energy-efficient, and beautiful.

Restore Your Sun Tunnel Functionality and Efficiency

While sun tunnels are designed to be durable and low-maintenance, issues can occasionally arise due to age, environmental factors, or improper installation.
These problems, if left unaddressed, can impact performance, reduce energy efficiency, or even cause damage to your home.

At Just Skylights, we provide expert repair and maintenance services to keep your sun tunnels in optimal condition, ensuring they continue to brighten your space effectively.

Common Sun Tunnel Issues We Address

We fix common sun tunnel problems like leaks, condensation, poor light output, and energy loss—restoring full function and clarity to your system.

Condensation Buildup
Improper sealing or inadequate insulation can cause moisture to accumulate inside the tunnel, leading to condensation. This not only affects light transmission but can also lead to mold growth or damage. We resolve this by improving insulation, replacing seals, or upgrading components as needed.

Leaks and Water Intrusion
Leaks are often caused by worn or damaged flashing, cracked domes, or improper roof integration. Our team identifies the source of the leak and performs targeted repairs, including resealing and replacing any compromised parts to ensure a watertight seal.

Ice Damming
In colder climates, poor insulation or ventilation around the sun tunnel can lead to ice damming, which causes water to back up and potentially leak into your home. We address these issues by improving insulation and airflow to prevent ice formation.

Limited Light Transmission
Over time, debris buildup, fogging, or discoloration of the dome or reflective tube can reduce the amount of light entering your home. We clean, repair, or replace components to restore maximum brightness and clarity.

Energy Loss
If your sun tunnel is not properly sealed or insulated, it can contribute to energy inefficiency, allowing heat to escape during winter or enter during summer. We enhance energy performance by upgrading insulation and sealing to create a more efficient installation.

Debris Buildup and Wear and Tear
External debris like leaves, dirt, or snow can accumulate on the roof dome, obstructing sunlight. Regular maintenance and cleaning by our team ensure your sun tunnel remains clear and functional. For aging installations, we repair or replace worn components to extend the lifespan of your system.
