Let's start with the estimate.  I invited 3 companies to bid on replacing my roof.  Having absolutely no experience with anything major like this, I'm at the mercy of those I call.

Bidder #1 looks at my house, asks me the size of the house, does NOT go on the roof, and says $8500.00.  He wrote that on a piece of paper and gave me his business card.  I asked for one of his contracts which he gave me.

Bidder #3 looked at my house, asked me the size, did NOT go on the roof, and said I should replace the skylights.  He then calculated the number of "squares", which even with waste was off by at least 400 square feet.  (Math was one of my better subjects in school).  He then told me $18,500.00.  He wrote that on the back of a business card.  I did not ask for one of his contracts.  I knew I wasn't going to pay $18,500.00 for a roof.

Garner was bidder # 2.  Mike called and asked if it was OK to come over because he may be arriving a few minutes early.  I think that shows some class.  He got the ladder out and went on the roof.  He took a few photos, made a call or two about my skylight, and was up there measuring and walking around doing what must have been one very thorough review of my roof.

Once finished, he didn't give me an estimate.  He told me he would write it up and email it to me.  He did spend a good amount of time explaining what needed to be done, and how they would do it.  I got the estimate that night or the next morning.  The estimate was written on what is also their contract, and had estimates for doing the roof 2 ways.  I chose the higher of the 2 so I could take advantage of the "lifetime" warranty.

Over the next week or so I called Mike once and emailed him at least once to ask questions.  He got back to me quickly and answered my questions thoroughly.

I sent in my deposit.  Over the next few weeks, we had a ton of rain, and we were in the Thanksgiving/Christmas/New Year season.  I called on week 4 and asked when we would be scheduled.  Kenny called me back and gave me a tentative date of January 7.  He verified that in an email a couple of days later.  Of course that could change based on weather, but it all worked out.  The crew was there first thing in the morning on January 7 and completed the job in one day. 

After they completed the job, I ended up with a very nice looking roof, a new skylight that I like a lot more than the old one, a reasonably clean yard all completed by a very professional group of people.  From Mike the estimator to Kenny the supervisor, to the installers, all of them performed above expectations.

Roofing must be an interesting business.  I have a new roof with a lifetime guarantee.  I would use them again if I had the need, but there is a very good chance I will never have to call them again. 

So, I'll do the next best thing.  I will absolutely recommend Garner to anyone looking for the services they offer.

"Great work! Ben supplied pictures of the work in progress and explained everything that was being done which showed the roof being pulled back to the "studs" and then how they put the new roof on. They also replaced the skylight at no additional cost. I will definitely recommend them in the future!"

Skylights questions, answered by experts

Yes, if you have ventilated skylights, you can install insect screens on them. Insect screens for skylights cost $10 to $50 each, depending on their size and quality. Most pros highly recommend insect screens for ventilated skylights because they keep pests outside of your home while allowing fresh air inside.

There are four main types of lighting 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. 

Choosing the fixture that’s right for you depends on your home design and the area you’re looking to illuminate.

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.

Local window and door specialists, glaziers, and roofers should all install skylights. You can also do an internet search to find companies that specialize in skylight installation near you. Keep in mind that skylight installation is very complex and can be dangerous without the proper tools and safety precautions, so we don’t recommend this as a DIY project.

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.
