Skylights questions, answered by experts

Yes, permits are generally required when adding a skylight because the installation will alter the structure of your home's roof. The best time to add a skylight is when you're getting your roof replaced because your roofing contractor can work skylight holes into the design.

Many homeowners love the appearance of skylights and the convenience of having unhindered access to natural light without compromising your privacy or security. Provided an experienced window professional installs your skylights, buyers will likely see them as more of an asset than a liability, which means they might be willing to pay more for your home. Skylights that open can also provide additional ventilation, and they’re particularly useful in hotter climates, where hot air inside your home can easily escape out of the ceiling where it normally accumulates.

An improperly installed skylight could potentially impact your roof's warranty. This happens because roofing penetration is necessary during skylight installation. Check your warranty information to verify. In most cases, having skylights professionally installed with proof that flashing is being done to specifications can be enough to preserve your roof's warranty.

Ceiling costs depend on many factors, such as the material used and size, but coffered ceilings are considered one of the more expensive ceiling options. If you want to install a coffered ceiling but have a limited budget, consider using plywood instead of hardwood—it costs $2–$4.50 per square foot, while hardwood can be as much as $20 per square foot.

The most popular treatment for a skylight is skylight shades. There are five primary types: manual, motorized, blackout, cellular//honeycomb, and Venetian. Motorized skylight shades are the most convenient, especially for skylights that are higher up, but manual shades are the most cost-effective treatments. Cellular/honeycomb shades are a perfect option for anyone who wants energy efficiency and an attractive look.
