I would not recommend leaving old flashing and roof and trying to do
something over the top of that; that's just asking for trouble down the
road.


That was my next question: are the skylights attached only to the
roof, or are they attached to the ceiling joists inside?
If I can remove the skylights without disturbing the inside sheetrock,
that would be great.


Yes, you can remove the skylight. Be sure to order and use the proper
Skylight Puller for your skylight.


A "Skylight Puller"? Is that anything like a "Sky Hook"?
