"Bob was great to work with. Very prompt in responding and getting information to me. I purchased shades to install on our skylights, but didn't have a tall enough ladder to reach. Bob came out, with the right equipment, installed the shades, made sure they worked, and cleaned up the area after he was done."

"Excellent. From initial contact Roofer's Edge was responsive. The installation crew was excellent and the gutters blend in with the trim color and are barely noticeable. We would definitely recommend them without hesitation."

"Given the experience with the roof repair (reviewed herein), I contacted Abalia for help in completing a project I had started: screening in the open front porch to our log cabin. As the entire cabin is constructed of cedar logs, no straight edges, walls, etc. Screening in openings was straight forward (I did most of this), but the porch needed to be segmented (screened-in area, open area) requiring a wall and door to be constructed. Khaled arrived with all the necessary tools (which I did not have), and in short order (4 hours) had constructed the porch divider wall. Very happy with the end product, as we just completed our first warm season with no bugs on the porch!"

"Anthony is a courteous and very professional. He came to measure the skylight glass and its replacement on time and date he provided, he also provided labor cost prior to doing the work. I did not know much about skylight glass replacement process so he explained me about cost of replacing the entire skylight vs. replacing the double pane glass only which is fabricated by local supplier. Majority of the cost involve was labor about 75%. He did a very through job and skylight did not leak after a rain next day. He also did other work around the house he was on the roof (1) increase the vent pipe length on roof and (2) replace four roof shingles on gambrel side of the roof. He is very friendly and easy to work with and very versatile. He has multiple talents beside working on skylights. His work quality is excellent -did not leave any debris on the ground or on driveway. I will not hesitate to hire for other jobs again around the house."

Start with skylights! At VELUX, our mission is clear: we're dedicated to transforming your space with natural light and fresh air with skylights. Whether you're looking to replace old skylights or install brand-new ones, we will guide you every step of the way. Why Choose VELUX? =================== When it comes to skylights and roof windows, VELUX is the global leader. Here's why you should trust us to transform your home: 1. Innovation and Quality: VELUX skylights are renowned for their innovation and unmatched quality. They're designed to let in abundant natural light while keeping your space leak-free and energy-efficient. 2. Huge Product Selection: You’ll have access to a wide range of skylight options, from fixed to vented skylights. And we are here to help tailor the selection to suit your specific needs and style preferences. 3. Expertise: We take pride in what we do at VELUX, and our team is highly trained to guide you through the entire process. From selecting the perfect product for your space to providing valuable recommendations, we're committed to making sure your skylight project is a complete success. 4. Professional Installation Partners: We don't stop at product selection and recommendations; we also match you with a VELUX-trained installer who will handle the installation of your skylights with precision and expertise.
In most cases, installing skylights will add to the value of your home, as buyers tend to like the appearance of these windows and prefer houses that let in natural light. However, savvy home buyers who know there are water damage risks with improperly installed skylights will want information on who installed the feature and when. If you can point to a professional skylight installer with experience, then the skylight is more likely to provide a better return on investment.
While it’s possible to install a skylight yourself, we don’t recommend it. DIY window installations are far more likely to leak due to improper placement technique. Making even minor mistakes could lead to thousands of dollars in water damage, meaning hiring a local skylight installer from the start would be more affordable. Plus, working on the roof is dangerous, as is maneuvering heavy, bulky windows up and into place. Even if you’re an experienced DIYer, we strongly recommend hiring a pro to install a skylight.
Skylights are the most likely windows to leak if installed improperly, so there are a few questions you should ask any skylight installer before you hire them:
Do you specialize in skylight installation or only windows in general?
Do you offer any kind of warranty for the installation?
What recourse do I have if the skylight leaks shortly after installation?
Do you have references I can speak with?
How long have you been in business?
Are you licensed and insured?
The average cost to install a skylight is about $1,850, and most homeowners pay between $450 to $5,000 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 $500 to $2,500 for labor costs to complete this project.
Skylights might sometimes increase your homeowners insurance premium, but the increase is usually minimal. Some home insurance companies won’t adjust your premium with the addition of a skylight, so you can contact your insurer or your professional skylight installer to ask about any expected changes. It’s crucial to have an expert install the skylight, as insurance companies may not insure your roof or cover water damage that results from a non-professional skylight installation.
