"We replaced two 20+ year old skylights. The new skylights were installed so cleanly, no inside work was necessary. Also on the outside the replacement shingles matched perfectly, so inside and out no one would know we had that type of work done. Love the new solar skylights, so quiet! The crew did an excellent job and very friendly!"

"

My skylights are still leaking. They have came out initially.  They leaked after the initial visit and they came out a second time.  It is now leaking again.


Trela came out for a third time on August 20th to try to find and fix the leaks.  They came out 2 days after I called Angie.  They were responsive to the call. 


  I will wait until it rains to see if the skylights leak.   I understand it is difficult to find Skylight leaks but I am hoping three times out to the house will do it.


I Will write a final review.


THANK YOU

"We are very satisfied with the replacement skylights (8 installed). Additionally, we are very impressed with how flawlessly NSS coordinated with our roofing company to efficiently install 8 skylights as an integral part of a much larger home improvement project. It was stress free for us. We would recommend this company without hesitation."

Customers say: Quick response

"I have dealer with various roofers for months. First it was difficult to get anyone to come out at all. Second, a few that did come out did not bother to even give me a quote. Third, the ones that provided a quote either did not address the problem I have or the quote was unrealistically high. Finally many are so busy that the work would have to be schedule weeks into the future. Johns came out gave me a quote on the spot and tells me they can do it in a week. I not only gave them the roofing job, I also hired them to replace my huge skylight which I had plan to give to another company. To make a long story short, they came out with a large crew and completed everything in 3 hours. If I ever need roofing work, John’s affiliates is the only choice for me. Great Job!!"

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.

Yes, solar tubes are easier to install than skylights because they’re lighter, smaller, and easier to handle. They also require less roof cutting and have a faster, simpler installation process. This means they’re a more DIY-friendly option for homeowners who want to add more natural light to their homes.

Roof windows and skylights can be installed on various roof materials, but skylights are usually the only option that you have if you have a flat roof or a roof with a slope under 15 degrees. In these cases, roof windows have too high of a risk of leaking to be suitable options. The specific installation requirements may vary, so it's important to hire a window replacement contractor. Certain types of roofs may not be ideal if they limit the size of the window or if they pose an issue with rainwater collecting around the area.

Professionals repair or seal a skylight by inspecting for damages, resealing any gaps with appropriate weatherproofing materials, replacing cracked glass or seals, and ensuring the frame is tightly fitted to prevent future leaks and ensure proper drainage.

An improperly installed skylight could potentially impact your roof's warranty. This happens because roofing penetration is necessary during skylight installation. Check your warranty information to verify. In most cases, having skylights professionally installed with proof that flashing is being done to specifications can be enough to preserve your roof's warranty.
