"Ron and Kevin did an excellent job of replacing our old skylights. Since the old, 30-year-old, skylights were no longer being produced, Ron custom designed skylights to fit in our space so they resembled our old skylights. They look fabulous. Ron and Kevin came when they said they would, worked diligently, and cleaned up after themselves. We were kept in the loop as to what was being done and what the cost would be. Ron is man of his word. Highly recommend."

"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."

"Sam and his crew were fantastic! They demoed two of our chimneys because they were too tall and one was leaning. The other the other two they, ground out the bad mortar and tuckpointed the chimneys. They also replaced the limestone caps and installed doghouses on all the chimneys. We were out of town and Sam was updating us every step of the way with pics and letting us know of another issue with our parapet. All the work was done expertly and quickly. Sam was also consciously aware of safety, not only for his crew, but also for our tenants while the work was being performed. Would highly recommend them to anyone and our go to for all our masonry needs."

"Sasha did a great job in caulking my Bay Window that was leaking water. He was very professional. Clean up was very good and he and his helper did a great job avoiding any damage to my front bushes or solar lights when working in front of the bay windo. Olga who handled the phone, was very polite and very helpful in making an appointment to have my leaking window repaired quickly before any more damage would occur with future rain predicted. I would call them again when I needed help with my windows."

Skylights questions, answered by experts

Pros of installing a skylight include the fact that you will get much more natural light in your home, skylights can make your room look bigger than it actually is, and your home may increase in value. Cons include difficult upkeep (you may have to get on a ladder to clean and maintain them), higher installation costs, and, potentially, too much heat gain from all the extra sunlight.

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.

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.

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.

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.
