"They were able to replace the skylight in less than 2 weeks after the quote. They did a good job and make the finish on the inside look good. A few weeks later, there was a heavy rain and my new skylight is no longer leaking like my old one that was replaced."
"Dakota Solomon was polite and helpful. The project was slowed due to the hard and late winter. One skylight was leaking so they replaced it in too cold weathering order to accommodate me since I was throwing a party. They had to return later in warmer weather to install a second skylight. They worked on Sunday to get the job done. They gave me excellent service. Richard Gull"

"Rob was very professional, knowledgeable and pleasant.. He was not pushy at all with trying to sell us new skylights when we initially were inquiring about repairs.. His price was very reasonable so we decided to replace them all.. The finish work was meticulous and looks beautiful! We highly recommend the Discount Skylight team!!"
"I thought we had a leak in our roof, but when Tren came out and looked at it, he found my issue was caused by a ceiling fan vent hose. Kudo’s on your honesty and I will definitely call Roofing Solutions when I do need any roofing issues fixed!"
"Debbie from All Seasons Roofs was very personable and professional in her communication. Despite the overall price being higher than other quotes, I decided to support this local company. There was a mistake during the job in that the wrong skylight was shipped from the supplier and the old skylight was removed before the error was discovered. This necessitated having the old skylight re-installed while the correct one was ordered. I was concerned about damage to the underlying support structure with multiple skylight removals, but it appears that the installation of the correct skylight went without a hitch. It rained quite hard the morning after installation of the new skylight and there were no leaks. Overall, I am pleased with the job done by All Seasons Roofs and would recommend their services."
"I called Element Roofing about a leak in a skylight. They came out right away and fixed it. The job was done quickly and well. I have since referred them to everyone I know who needs roofing work."
Yes, you can replace a skylight without changing the entire roof—if the roof is in good shape. First, you need to make sure the roof around the skylight is intact and free of damage. Quality installation is crucial to prevent leaks, including replacing the flashing, which seals the skylight to the roof. While replacing the skylight alone is doable, it can make sense to replace both at once to streamline the work, coordinate the warranties, and reduce the risk of future leaks. If you’re unsure, reach out to a professional for help in deciding the best approach.
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.
Professionals repair or seal a skylight by inspecting for damages, resealing any gaps with appropriate weatherproofing materials, replacing cracked glass or seals, and ensuring the frame is tightly fitted to prevent future leaks and ensure proper drainage.
Repairing or replacing a skylight generally takes between a few hours to a full day. Simple repairs might take 2 to 4 hours, depending on the complexity of the problem. The total time can vary based on factors like weather conditions, the accessibility of the skylight, and the extent of the work required, such as replacing the entire unit versus performing minor repairs.
Water will leak through a skylight if there are issues in the sealing of the skylight. Find and fix those issues yourself if possible, but it’s a good idea to contact a professional, as there could be much more water damage than you initially saw. Plus, it’s dangerous to work on a roof without the proper safety equipment and know-how.
