"I had 2 skylights that had been leaking badly replaced on my insulated patio roof. Scotty with his 2 sons did a fantastic job. There was a thunderstorm afterwards & not a drop of water was noticed. I am very pleased with their job & the skylights look beautiful. Thank you Scotty & Central Florida Skylights!"

"I am very pleased with John Keller Roofing. The hurricane of 2017 caused damage to many roofs so the wait time to get the crew on site was several months. During this time I would call and they always returned my call to give me an update of what I could expect. They ended up coming on a Saturday and got the job done in one day. I will call them first when I need another roof since we own several rental properties."
"After getting quotes from 6 large and small roofing companies, we decided to go with Total Home. Their price was in the middle but everything the salesperson explained to me made it easier to compare companies and possible outcomes. He made good suggestions for placement of additional air vents, replacement of skylights from plastic to glass, and other items which the other companies did not mention or charged much more for. This is a big company so I'll tell you I'm in the Orlando region. The job was started on time and completed within 5 days. It might have been done in 4 but it started raining one day and they covered everything well. Job manager came by a couple of times each day to check progress, including checking on the cleanup. He was very attentive to our satisfaction with everything. I liked that they had someone in the office assigned to follow up with me as needed. I could call her if I had a question or I couldn't reach the job manager and she would follow up with him for me. All this makes me give them an A for customer service. It's been several months and we are very happy with our new roof."
"They are tight and they balance them so that the sun comes in no matter where the sun is. There is no condensation. You can get clear or fogged and I chose fogged so there wouldn?t be a glare. They also do solar panels. The owner comes to the house to meet with you before the worker comes out. He?s a very nice older man. There are no hidden fees, they tell you everything up front."

"Solar Shield should receive a TRIPLE A rating. Frank was willing to explain every detail that the installation of a standing seam metal roof would require. The two crews that worked on the roof were very professional and did an outstanding job. They were very careful when working on the roof. The crews cleaned up so that we didn't need to do any outside work when they left the job. I would hire them again - but a standing seam metal roof has a very very long life so we should not need a new roof for over 50 plus years."
While it is possible to install a skylight as a DIY project, it is not recommended. Skylights are the most likely type of window to leak due to their position on the roof. Even minor mistakes during installation can lead to significant water damage and high repair costs. Additionally, working on a roof is dangerous, especially when maneuvering heavy, bulky windows. Due to the required roof modifications and the need for proper sealing and structural safety, hiring a professional skylight installer is strongly advised to avoid costly long-term issues.
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.
Installation typically takes 1-2 days, depending on the required roof type and structural modifications.
Leaks are the top concern for skylights, often due to improper installation or worn-out seals. Over time, water can seep in and cause major damage to your home’s ceilings and walls. Other common issues include condensation, which leads to mold, as well as physical damage from weather or debris. If they’re not sealed properly, skylights can also bring unwanted heat in the summer or cold in the winter, affecting your home’s energy efficiency and tacking on extra dollars to your bills.
Repairing or replacing a skylight generally takes between a few hours to a full day. Simple repairs might take 2 to 4 hours, depending on the complexity of the problem. The total time can vary based on factors like weather conditions, the accessibility of the skylight, and the extent of the work required, such as replacing the entire unit versus performing minor repairs.
