Yesterday I started removing the caulking around my leaking skylight in my bathroom. I'm still working on it today. Odd, I had most of it removed yesterday and it rained this morning. Guess what? The skylight didn't leak. I think I know why. I see it as a design flaw and that the sealant was not tooled right because you couldn't tool in a deep narrow gap of about a half inch clearance between the skylight frame and the rain gutter. Water was trapped and eventually came through. Without the sealant I pulled out the water just flowed by and not in. Still I'll have to figure out how to reseal it properly. I'll probably make a custom tool to work in the narrow gap.
