"The whole process was great. Lisa returned my call promptly and set up an estimate with the installer. The estimate came in right where I thought it would and work was scheduled for after Christmas. Scott, the installer, did a great job and cleaned up appropriately afterwards. I REALLY love the new daylight coming into both of my bathrooms!"

"We chose A&M Premier to replace our roof after some recent storm damage. The entire process from start to finish was easy and straightforward. All of our questions were answered promptly and professionally. The day of the project went really smoothly and the crew did a wonderful job making sure they cleaned up any stray materials or debris. Other than the beautiful new roof you'd never know they were there. Based on my experience I would definitely recommend A&M Premier for any roofing work."

"I am thrilled with my new skylights. Chris was professional from the beginning. Arrived on time for our appointments. Completed the work in a very timely manner, picked up all trash, has been a great communicator, took pictures of completed work, went above and beyond while doing the work, taking care of a roof issue that was not in his scope of the job, no charge, just something that he did to make the overall job look better, ie he painted my fireplace cap to match the other things he painted. So just know when you hire Roofline Experts you are truly getting an expert and I have no doubt you’ll be just as happy with his work as I am."

"I had a great experience with Excel Roofing from start to finish. Their team was professional, responsive, and took the time to clearly explain the process and options available. The inspection was thorough, the estimate was fair and transparent, and the crew showed up on time and worked efficiently. The quality of the installation exceeded my expectations — everything looks excellent and was cleaned up perfectly afterward. Communication throughout the project was consistent, and I always felt like my questions were a priority. I would highly recommend Excel Roofing to anyone looking for a reliable, trustworthy, and detail-oriented roofing company. They truly stand behind their work and make the entire process stress-free."

"The staff at Odyssey Contractors made the whole process so easy. They made sure I understood everything that would be replaced and they worked directly with my insurance company to ensure that I would not pay more than my deductible. Sean and Jeremy stayed on top of things the whole time right through the final quality check. I canâ t say enough great things for their outstanding customer service and quality work. I love how my new roof looks and would highly recommend them."

Skylights questions, answered by experts

Fixed skylights are by far the most popular type. Because skylights can be pretty high up on your ceiling, fixed (rather than operable) skylights remove some maintenance from the equation. Plus, you don’t have to constantly worry if you shut your skylight fully the last time you opened it or if you’re going to find a leak later on during a rainy day.

An improperly installed skylight could potentially impact your roof's warranty. This happens because roofing penetration is necessary during skylight installation. Check your warranty information to verify. In most cases, having skylights professionally installed with proof that flashing is being done to specifications can be enough to preserve your roof's warranty.

A skylight's ability to withstand hail depends on factors like material quality and thickness. Impact-resistant options, such as tempered or laminated glass, fare better against hail compared to standard glass. Proper installation and regular maintenance also contribute to their resilience. While smaller hailstones may not pose a significant threat, larger ones can cause damage. Consider skylight protection methods like covers or screens in hail-prone areas to enhance durability and minimize potential harm.

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?

Yes, skylights can affect a home’s energy efficiency, either positively or negatively. Properly installed, energy-efficient skylights with Low-E coatings, double glazing, and UV-blocking glass can help regulate indoor temperatures and reduce heating and cooling costs. However, poorly insulated or older skylights can contribute to heat loss in winter and excess heat gain in summer, lowering overall energy efficiency.
