Water has the ability to find it’s way inside your home but you won’t always see significant damage right away. Sometimes the water will just build up in your attic rotting the joists and beams that hold up your roof, so its very important to periodically check around your skylights after heavy rain.

Cracked Skylights – Acrylic dome skylights are much more likely to crack than glass skylights naturally through time. Typically a glass skylight will need to be hit by an object before it cracks. Either way you don’t want a skylight that has cracks, it allows for heat gain and heat loss which is almost like leaving a door open while having your AC on in the summer or it can be like leaving a window open while its raining. Options I’m sure you want to avoid, but from a safety standpoint you do not want glass skylights that have cracks they are unstable and can fall at any moment sending glass shards down into your home.
