What is the most common problem with skylights?

• <div><p>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. </p></div>

How much does it cost to have a skylight installed?

• <div><p>The <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-much-skylight-installation-cost.htm#">average cost to install a skylight</a> is about <b>$1,850</b>, and most homeowners pay between <b>$450 to $5,000</b> each. Your total price tag will depend on many factors, including the type of roof material, the pitch of your roof, ease of accessibility, the skylight size, and the type of frame and glass you want. You can potentially lower your price if you install multiple windows or skylights simultaneously. Remember to budget <b>$500 to $2,500</b> for labor costs to complete this project.</p></div>

Can I add blinds or shades to roof windows and skylights?

• <div><p>Yes, you can add blinds or shades to both roof windows and skylights, but roof windows tend to have more options available. Retractable <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-to-choose-skylight-shades.htm">skylight shades</a> are popular on both options for added privacy, light control, and heat reduction, although they’re more expensive than manually-operated blinds or shades. If you have a roof window or skylight set in a high ceiling, a motorized or solar-powered skylight window covering is probably your best bet.</p></div>

Do roof windows and skylights come with warranties?

• <div><p>Yes, reputable manufacturers typically provide warranties for their roof windows and skylights, and many installers also offer a labor warranty, although labor warranties often don’t last as long as the manufacturer’s warranty. A warranty from a skylight manufacturer is helpful in the event of leaks or other damage down the road on this type of home feature. The length of time and the terms of the warranty may vary, so it's important to review the details before making a purchase.</p></div>

What other types of lighting can I use in my home?

• <div><p>There are <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/types-lighting-your-home.htm">four main types of lighting</a> used in homes: ambient, task, accent, and decorative. Within these categories, there are a number of fixtures to choose from including ceiling-mounted lights, floor lamps, under-cabinet lights, track lighting, and more. </p><p>Choosing the fixture that’s right for you depends on your home design and the area you’re looking to illuminate.</p></div>

We are a locally owned and operated company. That offers superior maintenance and construction. We strive to be a one stop shop for all your residential and commercial repair needs. We offer free estimates and reference are available. We accept all major credit cards and financing available. Call today to schedule a free estimate.

"Horrible! The workers did not show up each day until about 10am (or later) and would leave around 2-3 pm (and that’s including an hour for lunch) so not much progress on the house daily. I was told my house would be completed within 1-2 weeks, instead it was about 2 months. All that and we were left with a less than mediocre result. I honestly don’t think these people have ever installed vinyl siding before. I have had a lot of the siding fall off and I put back myself, all the top pieces of siding fell off at least once, they came and replaced but the pieces fell off again after they left. I realized they don’t even own the notching tool for the top row pieces (or even know it exists). I had to go purchase this tool, notch the pieces and reinstall myself. Also noticed some of the siding nails were drove in tight, you cannot do this with vinyl siding. It has to be able to move with the temperature changes (can’t wait to see what happens this winter). I still have 2-3 pieces that need replaced but they are at the highest point on my house at the peak (requires a man lift to access) and have been told by the owner several weeks ago they are coming back to fix it, I’m still here, holding my breath. This company might be ok at building a small deck or maybe some bird houses but if your looking for quality craftsmanship, as you should when it comes to your home, this isn’t it."
