"They fixed a leak that we had around a skylight. They also noted some issues (gutters) which may have contributed to our leaks. Nice job!"

"I called Adam White of Rourk Remodeling to look at my deck for a "facelift."   I appreciated his friendly, low-pressure manner and knew immediately his was the company to do the job.  He did a thorough evaluation of the 22-year-old deck, and after finding it structurally sound, recommended a power-wash and re-staining.  He offered he would either use a stain of my choice, but highly recommended Sherwin Williams for its durability and guarantee. (I agreed with his judgment.)  I also wanted my deck fenced in so my dogs could no longer jump through the spindles. We decided upon a green plastic mesh that matched the spindles. 
Mr. White accomplished all the above in a time and professional manner.   My dogs did a lot of "supervising" and he was very good-natured with them (even if they got in the way.)   My deck looks brand new and my pets have a larger outside area to enjoy.  I would totally recommend him for decks and plan to use him for some interior improvements soon!"

Skylights questions, answered by experts

Whether you need a permit to install a skylight depends on the scope of the project and local regulations. Generally, permits are required if the installation involves altering the structural components of your home, such as moving roof rafters. In some municipalities, a permit might also be necessary if the skylight protrudes above the highest point of your existing roof. However, if no structural changes are made, a permit may not be needed. The cost for a skylight installation permit is typically under $100. A convenient time to add a skylight is during a roof replacement, as your contractor can incorporate the new opening into the design.

There are four main types of lighting used in homes: ambient, task, accent, and decorative. Within these categories, there are a number of fixtures to choose from including ceiling-mounted lights, floor lamps, under-cabinet lights, track lighting, and more. 

Choosing the fixture that’s right for you depends on your home design and the area you’re looking to illuminate.

Yes, you can install skylights on an existing roof, and it’s a common service that many homeowners opt for, especially on older homes built when skylights weren’t as prevalent. The installation process will be a bit more involved, and the design and planning process will take longer, meaning you’ll pay more to install a skylight on an existing roof than you would in new construction. The process involves cutting a hole in the roof, moving rafters, if necessary, and installing and sealing around the skylight.

The type of lighting you choose can have a big part in the aesthetic and function of your space. Ambient lighting refers to indirect or diffused lighting that evenly reaches most areas of the space. Task lighting illuminates specific areas, such as a workspace. Accent lighting draws attention to details in your home, and decorative lighting draws attention to itself.

A skylight's ability to withstand hail depends on factors like material quality and thickness. Impact-resistant options, such as tempered or laminated glass, fare better against hail compared to standard glass. Proper installation and regular maintenance also contribute to their resilience. While smaller hailstones may not pose a significant threat, larger ones can cause damage. Consider skylight protection methods like covers or screens in hail-prone areas to enhance durability and minimize potential harm.
