"I broke a Skylight in our family's Cabin in St. Elmo, Colorado. Unable to get it fixed until next Spring at the earliest. Problem, we developed a leak in two of our older Skylights. Did not want to destroy a wood floor etc. Called Ian Simon and talked with him. Unlike the other companies, wanting us to wait. IIan Simon Roofing was enthusiastic about the project. We had a problem. St. Elmo Suburbs, are about to get snowed in. Within two weeks, he had visited St. Elmo and ordered the special skylight parts. He also recommended, that we replace part of the flashing on the Roof. That is the area that recently started leaking. Obviously we were about to panic. In about two weeks, he had visited our cabin and took measurements. Then returned to Colorado Springs in order to order the Skylights and roofing materials. He also explained why he was recommending new flashing. An Architech friend of mine explained. That he always orders this new flashing. He said because, it works. Bottom Line, fixed theleaks before they did major damages. Then improved the roof and installed upgraded water proofing."

Skylights questions, answered by experts

When planning out skylights and deciding how big they should be, it's important to look at the dimensions of the interior space. In addition to changing a room aesthetically, skylights influence the illumination and temperature of the space below. The U.S. Department of Energy recommends that a skylight’s size should never be more than 5% of the floor area in rooms with many windows.

Yes, you can cover up a skylight if you no longer wish to have it in your space. There are a few options for covering up a skylight. One option is to install a skylight cover or shade that can be easily opened or closed as needed, allowing you to control the amount of light entering the room. Another option is to cover the skylight with a solid material, such as plywood or drywall, effectively sealing it off. However, when covering a skylight, it's essential to ensure proper insulation and waterproofing to prevent any issues in the future.

To maintain a skylight and ensure its performance over time, regular maintenance is required. This includes periodically cleaning the glass and frame to remove dirt, debris, and condensation. It is also crucial to inspect the seals and flashing at least once a year for any signs of wear, degradation, or leaks, paying special attention after heavy storms. Ensure that the drainage system is clear to prevent water buildup and potential leaks. Address minor issues like cracks promptly and consider occasional resealing to prevent drafts and moisture problems. While energy-efficient skylights with Low-E coatings or double glazing may require less upkeep, periodic professional servicing can help keep any skylight in optimal condition.

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.

Yes, reputable manufacturers typically provide warranties for their roof windows and skylights, and many installers also offer a labor warranty, although labor warranties often don’t last as long as the manufacturer’s warranty. A warranty from a skylight manufacturer is helpful in the event of leaks or other damage down the road on this type of home feature. The length of time and the terms of the warranty may vary, so it's important to review the details before making a purchase.
