"Company had done work for us twice before (tile roofing and flat top rubber roofing). They did a great job and we never had a problem with anything they did. This job was done when we told it would be, all cleaned up after and during the work, and has held up well. (Done 3 years ago.)"

"We had major damage to our home from the back to back hurricanes, Frances & Jeanne in September 2004; we put tarps on our roof after the first storm and then FEMA put more on after the 2nd; someone I knew & trusted worked in the accounting office at Duren  Roofing - and still does 11 years later :-) so they were my first call! We were thankful to get on their wait list at the time; we only waited 7 months for the work to be complete; the only issue was that a worker cracked the corner of one of our exisitng skylights when removing the old roof; Duren explained that the old skylights were not Hurricane resistant ones so they needed to be removed and replaced with Dade County approved ones; for some reason, the  CMDADE 'Ford' skylights - made by Birdview Skylights in Ft. Worth, TX - that Duren installed during the re-roof do not state on them that they are Miami-Dade approved; this has caused a LOT of issues over the past 10 years with various home insurance companies! (As many of you know if you reside in South Florida and live East of A1A, finding a quality insurance provider can be a challenge - and having EVERYTHING up to Miami-Dade hurricane code is critical or you will pay an enormous premium!) Upon my request, Duren did provide us with a 'Notice of Acceptance' (NOA) - a copy of a FAX sent to Duren on 7/19/2003 that was barely legible - that we've kept to prove to our home insurance providers that the skylights are indeed Miami-Dade certified.
The company owner, Mr. John Duren, has been to our home on several occasions over the past 10 years to inspect our roof at the request of insurance companies, etc. He is always very prompt and courteous.
Duren was my first call after the hail storm on 4/27/2015; I have bids from several local roofing companies; my husband & I are debating going with a metal roof this time, so we have not selected a roofing contractor yet.

"I got a fair price for good work. I didn't want to hire the cheapest guy with a truck, but obviously not spend a small fortune on my roof. My first impression of the sales man was positive, he had a professional demeanor and followed up when he said he would and updated me along the way. I wasn't home while the roof was getting installed but when I got home later that evening nothing was damaged on my property and the roof looked good so I can't complain. Overall, an easy and positive experience. Would recommend."

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.

This is based on personal preference, budget, and the vibe you are going for with your holiday lighting. If you are looking for the cheapest option, incandescent lights are a budget-friendly choice. You can also opt for sheets of lights that cover areas such as trees and bushes for easier installation.

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.

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.

Water will leak through a skylight if there are issues in the sealing of the skylight. Find and fix those issues yourself if possible, but it’s a good idea to contact a professional, as there could be much more water damage than you initially saw. Plus, it’s dangerous to work on a roof without the proper safety equipment and know-how.
