"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."
"Brian and his team did a fantastic job on the install of our skylights. He communicated throughout the process which was very important to us. The install went smoothly and the finished product was above our expectations. Great job Brian!"
"7 Days Roofing did an outstanding job for us. A massive tree fell and did significant damage to our roofing and siding. 7 Days gave us an estimate the same day we called and quickly began the repairs. Their price was competitive and their work is top-notch. The team did a thorough and quality job for us and worked quickly. I highly recommend them for your roofing and siding needs. You’ll be glad you chose them to do your job."

"The initial call to the company was facilitated by Shirley, who was very nice, professional and helped to schedule a date and time we could be home for Carlos, who provided the evaluation of our existing roof, gutter and skylight. He provided paperwork, the estimate and honored our desire to read the contract and discuss our options after he left. He did not hassle or push for us to accept and sign the contract. Carlos was professional, prompt and thorough. During the evaluation he was sure to make the measurements to the roof and skylight so the estimate would be as accurate as could be. Carlos answered all questions our discussions, and during the phone calls to confirm the roof and gutter replacement. On the day of the service, for some reason the battery lost its charge, and I was not able to move the car. The crew led by Sandy was kind, considerate and covered the car with their tarp. They told me that "it's okay", (after I apologized over and over). Although not directly in their way, they still had to make sure none of the shingles, supplies or the Equipter hit the car. All members of the crew tolerated my questions periodically throughout the day, and were very polite while providing a brief explanation of what they were doing. All members of the crew knew their assignment, and worked throughout the entire day, with the exception of their lunch break. Carlos came to the house, went on the roof, and checked on the progress. The roof looks great, the gutters/downspout are great and the skylight replacement provides us with the new and fresh view. The shed roof has new and fresh look, with the old tattered shingles and damaged deck boards replacement. Carlos said he was present when the old gutters were removed so he could confirm if the soffit boards would require replacement. I told him beforehand to replace the wood if it was bad or rotted. Following the completion of the entire project, Carlos came to the house to be able to see the gutter that I inquired about during a follow up phone call. When I returned home from work that day, the tiny adjustment was made to our satisfaction. Financing was also made available to us if we needed it. "
"I highly recommend Prestige Construction! They are professional, reliable and did a beautiful job replacing my entire roof. Completed the job in time stated (one day). Thank you Prestige Construction! It was great working . Job well done!!"
"Fantastic! They showed up that weekend and had the main roof done On Saturday and the flat roof on Sunday. Came back and finished the porch ceiling. The different crews that complete each job were professional and courteous. The flat roof that has been a thorn in my side for years (replaced twice) finally was replaced with some solid composite material I think is used to make pools and tubs (real solid). I typically have not been impressed with the contractors that have worked on my house but these guys were fantastic. I strongly recommend these guys."
"Also installed a skylight. Very professional crew and they were very neat. Didn't find 1 nail on the ground. The roof looks so pretty and we are enjoying the skylight. Had a minor issue and it was handled immediately and to our complete satisfaction. So happy we used Surf & Turf !"
Yes, solar tubes are easier to install than skylights because they’re lighter, smaller, and easier to handle. They also require less roof cutting and have a faster, simpler installation process. This means they’re a more DIY-friendly option for homeowners who want to add more natural light to their homes.
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 U.S. Department of Energy recommends that a skylight’s size should never be more than 5% of the floor area in rooms with many windows.
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.
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.
Costs depend on skylight size, roof type, and additional features like blinds or tinting.
