"Ron at Complete Skylights was outstanding to work with. His response time was unbelievably fast, and he took the time to carefully review the photos I sent. He asked all the right questions and helped me realize the real problem was a humidity issue, not the skylight itself. His expertise and willingness to help were greatly appreciated. I highly recommend Ron and Complete Skylights."

"I contacted probably 20 different contractors to install a new skylight. Some didnâ t return my call ; some were unpleasant; some gave me crazy high estimates. NSS responded promptly; showed up on time for estimate while being extremely pleasant and knowledgeable and completed the work in the timeframe they gave me and did a beautiful job! Thanks NSS!!!"

"First of all I would like to say that this is a wonderful company that does great work and is honest! I have used them before and they were fantasticâ ¦the windows they fixed looked like new! I called them again to have them look at a couple windows and they told me they were fine by and what to do . Companies like this are hard to find in this day an age. They also recommended a company that might be able to help me. You can really trust a company that does that. If you ever have window issues do not hesitate to call them!!"

Skylights questions, answered by experts

Yes, solar tubes work during the winter as long as it’s light outside and they aren’t covered by snow. Sun tunnels are made to work year-round to bring in natural light, and some people find them even more beneficial during the winter. With less daylight outside, it can be even more important to bring brightness into homes to reduce electricity costs.

Most homeowners insurance policies cover skyight damage that is caused by hail. Hail damage is considered a covered peril under most standard insurance policies. However, this only applies if your skylights were properly installed. Also, insurance policies vary, so be sure to check your individual policy to see if skylight hail damage is covered.

While it is possible to install a skylight as a DIY project, it is not recommended. Skylights are the most likely type of window to leak due to their position on the roof. Even minor mistakes during installation can lead to significant water damage and high repair costs. Additionally, working on a roof is dangerous, especially when maneuvering heavy, bulky windows. Due to the required roof modifications and the need for proper sealing and structural safety, hiring a professional skylight installer is strongly advised to avoid costly long-term issues.

The type of lighting you choose can have a big part in the aesthetic and function of your space. Ambient lighting refers to indirect or diffused lighting that evenly reaches most areas of the space. Task lighting illuminates specific areas, such as a workspace. Accent lighting draws attention to details in your home, and decorative lighting draws attention to itself.

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.
