I'll take pics tomorrow. The skylight is leaking in the bathroom in the shower area.The skylight looks like a cheap piece of garbage to me and I want it gone since all they do it leak. The ceiling at this point appears to be ruined in the shower area. My question is how can you section or patch a rubber roof ? I want to remove the skylight. I will frame out the opening and put plywood where the hole was but I need to put membrane over the repair so how can that be done ? Should I lay a piece over the existing roof ? Try to tuck a piece under the existing roof ? It seems to me the way to fix it would be to get a piece of membrane the same size as the hole and lay that on the plywood first then lay another piece of membrane over the patch but 6 inches min bigger all around and then ...glue ??? Seal ?? it to the existing roof ?
How does one patch a rubber roof ? Can small pieces of membrane be bought ?
Then on the inside , since it's in the shower, I'll just cut a piece of that white plastic wall stuff they use in restrooms and make a new ceiling the size of the shower so it looks factory as the ceiling damage does not extend past the shower area.
Opinions ?
