"We have once again reached out to Joe Kim at J & K Home Improvements when we had a new project planned. We were completely satisfied when we replaced our siding and roof with Joe. Now Joe and his professional crew have replaced all our windows . There are never surprises or additions from when the job is quoted. Once again we are totally satisfied and delighted with their work!! It has been a stress free experience each and every time."

"Art put in a solar tube skylight in our hall bathroom.  It looks great and provides a ton of natural light.  It was a little on the expensive side, but I think it was worth it knowing it was done buy a guy with tons of experience who does quality work using quality products.

"The technician was initially on time and was very personable.  The inspection was quick.  He sealed a gap around the chimney and inspected the leaking skylight, and showed me pics of the problem area taken while he was up there.  We discussed options for replacing the skylight, he took measurements, and promised to get me a quote, with the $149 for the inspection/tuneup to be deducted from the quote.
Over the course of the next couple of weeks, I received promises that the quote would materialize soon.  It never did, and finally I just stopped hearing from him.  I won't chase a contractor in a situation like this; nagging someone to come work for you never turns out well.  So in the end I had to start over with someone else, and the $149 paid to Apex bought me five minutes of chimney caulking and a sales pitch for a service that would never happen.
Technically they did what they contracted to do, which was look at the roof and make a minor repair.  But the skylight was the reason for it, and there was no follow-through.

Skylights questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

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.

Ceiling costs depend on many factors, such as the material used and size, but coffered ceilings are considered one of the more expensive ceiling options. If you want to install a coffered ceiling but have a limited budget, consider using plywood instead of hardwood—it costs $2–$4.50 per square foot, while hardwood can be as much as $20 per square foot.

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.
