"With a slight delay due to COVID, the work was very well done. Plaster repairs were completed, all furniture was moved away from the walls, the floors were covered. The colors were exactly as I requested, including the crown molding. The work was completed in the time quoted and for the estimated cost."

"The first time the install crew arrived they brought an entirely different skylight than I ordered. The one they had wasnâ t even the correct dimensions. After some discussion as to how this mistake happened I decided to order a skylight of a different design than originally ordered which in the end was a better product. The second time the crew arrived with the new skylight with the proper dimensions and proceeded to make a proper installation. This entire episode took longer than anticipated however the company was very responsive to the situation. We are pleased with our new skylight and would use this company again if ever needed."

"My wife rearranged her Saturday plans to be home during the Saturday repair.  Elder 1 was supposed to arrive in the afternoon but by late afternoon nobody had arrived or called.  I called the office but it was closed, and I also emailed the Elder 1 representative who had inspected the roof.  I was stressing because we had a pretty good rain Sunday night but apparently the attic insulation held the water since I did not see any leakage on the bedroom ceilings underneath the open shingles.  Elder 1 called Monday, apologizing for the repair personnel not calling on Saturday when their early repair work overran their schedule.  They called Tuesday afternoon to complete the repairs Wednesday, which they did complete.  Elder 1 called me when the work was completed.  When I arrived home I was pleased to see the new shingle colors matched the remainder of the roof pretty well.

"The company was able to get top of the line materials and gave us a great price.  The laborers and foreman worked tirelessly, rarely taking a break and only then to quickly eat a sandwich before resuming their work. The craftsmanship was excellent and the deck, while always a big part of our family living space, is now beautiful.

"Good, honest people, but when coming to the job site with broken or missing tools that is unacceptable. I don't take issue with the workmanship, but when the bossman said that it would be paint ready the project should be paint ready, the reality is that it was nowhere near paint ready. The bottom line is it was not done right."

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.

Costs depend on skylight size, roof type, and additional features like blinds or tinting.

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.

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.

In most cases, installing skylights will add value to your home, making them a worthwhile investment for many homeowners. Buyers are often attracted to the aesthetic appeal of skylights, as they make rooms feel brighter, airier, and more spacious by introducing natural light without compromising privacy. Beyond aesthetics, skylights can offer monetary benefits by potentially reducing energy bills. Additionally, models that can be opened provide extra ventilation, which is particularly useful in hotter climates for allowing accumulated hot air to escape from the ceiling. However, the return on investment depends on several factors. To maximize value, it's crucial that the skylights are installed by an experienced professional to avoid risks like water damage, which can deter savvy buyers. Regular maintenance and cleaning are also important. Furthermore, choosing the right frame and glazing materials for your specific climate will enhance their performance and appeal. While skylights are generally seen as an asset, homeowners should also consider the initial cost, which averages around $1,500 for installation.
