How big can skylights be?

• <div><p>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 <a href="https://www.energy.gov/energysaver/skylights">U.S. Department of Energy</a> recommends that a skylight’s size should never be more than 5% of the floor area in rooms with many windows.</p></div>

How much does it cost to have a skylight installed?

• <div><p>The <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-much-skylight-installation-cost.htm#">average cost to install a skylight</a> is about <b>$1,850</b>, and most homeowners pay between <b>$450 to $5,000</b> 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 <b>$500 to $2,500</b> for labor costs to complete this project.</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 maintenance do skylights require?

• <div><p>Skylights need periodic cleaning to remove dirt, debris, and condensation buildup. You should also inspect the seals and flashing once per year, looking for signs of wear or leaks, especially after heavy storms. Energy-efficient skylights with Low-E coatings or double glazing require less upkeep, but all skylights benefit from occasional resealing and checking for cracks to prevent drafts and moisture issues.</p></div>

What are the various types of lighting?

• <div><p>The type of lighting you choose can have a big part in the aesthetic and function of your space. Ambient lighting refers to indirect or diffused lighting that evenly reaches most areas of the space. Task lighting illuminates specific areas, such as a workspace. Accent lighting draws attention to details in your home, and decorative lighting draws attention to itself.</p></div>

"Install was sloppy and seal edges were broken. Later I needed warranty service as the internal window seals were broken. They were fogging inside. Andy told me it was my problem and to call the manufacturer, Negletfully he did not record the order correctly and it took three shipments from the manufacturer to get the right size, then Andy said he would not come and replace them without charging me. Years later and I am still dealing with this mess of a company. Never again!"
