"I was originally expecting a plumbing leak because I had leaking under the bathroom at my first story ceiling. Plumber came out and said it was a roof leak. My house is only 4 years old, so I was concerned. I called Helton and even before they came out, they explained some common causes of roof leaks in newer houses. They explained that flashing is often put together with caulk instead of welded together, and that they were welders by trade also, so they could do all of the work. They came out the day after I called and looked over the roof to determine the problem and give an estimate for free. At that time, they found that there were numerous nail holes in the roof and that the flashing had been put on backward. They said they could fix it for $250. I called back to have the work done within a few days, and again, they came right out the next day to do the work. On the day of, I realized they may also be the appropriate company to have repair our downspout that had come loose from the house and disconnected from itself in one spot due to the welding experience. I asked the day of if they could do that as well, and they added that on for an extra $50 without any hesitation. I wasn't home when they did the work, but I came home to find the downspout very securely fastened to the house in several spots and bolted together firmly at every joint, the way it should have been done initially by the builder! I was VERY pleased! We had a very heavy rain last night, and there is no leaking, so they appear to have done a great job with the roof as well!"

Skylights questions, answered by experts

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 decision to remove a skylight depends on your specific circumstances and preferences. There are several reasons why you might consider removing a skylight, such as extensive damage, a desire for better insulation, or the need to change the room's layout. Additionally, if the skylight is causing leaks or other issues, it may be necessary to remove and replace it (which can incur additional skylight installation costs). It's important to assess your specific situation and consult with professionals if needed to make an informed decision.

Yes, you can install skylights on an existing roof, and it’s a common service that many homeowners opt for, especially on older homes built when skylights weren’t as prevalent. The installation process will be a bit more involved, and the design and planning process will take longer, meaning you’ll pay more to install a skylight on an existing roof than you would in new construction. The process involves cutting a hole in the roof, moving rafters, if necessary, and installing and sealing around the skylight.

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.

To maintain a skylight and ensure its performance over time, regular maintenance is required. This includes periodically cleaning the glass and frame to remove dirt, debris, and condensation. It is also crucial to inspect the seals and flashing at least once a year for any signs of wear, degradation, or leaks, paying special attention after heavy storms. Ensure that the drainage system is clear to prevent water buildup and potential leaks. Address minor issues like cracks promptly and consider occasional resealing to prevent drafts and moisture problems. While energy-efficient skylights with Low-E coatings or double glazing may require less upkeep, periodic professional servicing can help keep any skylight in optimal condition.
