"Had a repeat issue with water coming in from the skylight. They came on time, patched it while the roof was full of snow and then replaced the skylight and patched everything inside and out when the snow melted. Very happy with the service and the results."

"Brian was very responsive. He called me within an hour of my inquiry. He met me at my home that day, looked over the job, gave me a price, and offered to compete the work the next day. I accepted the price, he showed up to repair the leak. While he was working on the room, he noticed that the vent gaskets were cracking, so he called me to inform me and offered to repair that as well. During their work, I visited the site. During the visit, I noticed a spot where the sheathing had separated from the roof trusses, and Brain repaired that as well. The job was done well, and it blends in to the rest of the roof well. His workers cleaned up afterwards. Anyone would have a hard time noticing that any work was done. I was very satisfied. I would recommend Brian LeBlanc Roofing to anyone who needs roof repair or replacement."

Skylights questions, answered by experts

Prevent future skylight issues by conducting regular inspections, ensuring gutters are clean to prevent water pooling, applying protective sealants periodically, and trimming overhanging branches that might cause physical damage to the skylight.

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.

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.

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.
