Are solar tubes easier to install than skylights?

• <div><p>Yes, solar tubes are easier to install than skylights because they’re lighter, smaller, and easier to handle. They also require less roof cutting and have a faster, simpler installation process. This means they’re a more DIY-friendly option for homeowners who want to add more natural light to their homes.</p></div>

Which types of lights are best for my project?

• <div><p>This is based on personal preference, budget, and the vibe you are going for with your holiday lighting. If you are looking for the cheapest option, incandescent lights are a budget-friendly choice. You can also opt for sheets of lights that cover areas such as trees and bushes for easier installation.</p></div>

What are common issues requiring skylight repair or replacement?

• <div><p>Common skylight issues include leaks, condensation between glass panes, damaged seals, and cracks in the glazing. Regular exposure to weather elements can lead to these problems, requiring timely attention to preserve the integrity of the skylight and the surrounding roof structure.</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>

"POOR WORKMANSHIP. WORTHLESS WARRANTY. We have 5 roofs that were replaced by Complete Roofing. 3 of the 5 new roofs leaked enough water to make puddles on the floors. They fixed one, I fixed one, and the third one they tried to fix twice, now they refuse to fix it. All three leaks seem to be caused by poor workmanship with the flashing and drip edges. The one they refuse to fix is on our personal home. We hired Complete Roofing to replace the entire roof, replace all gutters and flashing, and install gutter leaf guards. Our bathroom was flooded the first time it rained after the new roof was installed. The water leaked into the soffit, around the bathroom window, and streamed down the interior wall. They tried to fix it twice. The second time they tried to fix it they managed to prevent the bathroom from flooding but water still leaked into the soffit above the window. Now the soffit and fascia have rotted out from the inside and we have visible water damage around the outside of the bathroom window. I have been trying to get them to fix it for many months but they suddenly cut off all communication with me. My only option is to hire another company to redo this area of the roof, including: remove the gutters, install proper flashing, and replace the rotted soffit and fascia wood, repaint this area, and reinstall the gutters. We are very disappointed with Complete Roofing."
