"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!"

"We were very pleased with the work and the quality of the finished product. We knew we weren't going with a budget company but we were pleased with what we received for what we paid. Our issues were with the coordination of scheduling work. What we were told wasn't necessarily adhered to and after work began there were additional blimps in the work schedule."

"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

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.

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.

Yes, you can replace a skylight without changing the entire roof—if the roof is in good shape. First, you need to make sure the roof around the skylight is intact and free of damage. Quality installation is crucial to prevent leaks, including replacing the flashing, which seals the skylight to the roof. While replacing the skylight alone is doable, it can make sense to replace both at once to streamline the work, coordinate the warranties, and reduce the risk of future leaks. If you’re unsure, reach out to a professional for help in deciding the best approach.

Skylights are the most likely windows to leak if installed improperly, so there are a few questions you should ask any skylight installer before you hire them:

  • Do you specialize in skylight installation or only windows in general?

  • Do you offer any kind of warranty for the installation?

  • What recourse do I have if the skylight leaks shortly after installation?

  • Do you have references I can speak with?

  • How long have you been in business?

  • Are you licensed and insured?

Pros of installing a skylight include the fact that you will get much more natural light in your home, skylights can make your room look bigger than it actually is, and your home may increase in value. Cons include difficult upkeep (you may have to get on a ladder to clean and maintain them), higher installation costs, and, potentially, too much heat gain from all the extra sunlight.
