"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."

"They came on time, worked until it was done, and cleaned up after themselves.  They charged me what they said it would cost.  I will use them again when it is time to put aluminum over the work they did this fall.

"They’re terrific. They did a great job. With the chimney, they matched the bricks so well and you cannot tell I have a new chimney. It’s incredible! The worker was wonderful. He was so nice and just so professional. I have nothing but high praise about the work they did. My only problem is that a friend of mine hired them to do his roof and rebuild his chimney. The next week, I contacted them and arranged for them to rebuild my chimney and do the roof repairs. They explained to me that they might not get to me right away because they have a big project and that is of course their priority, which I understood. So they did my friend’s job and after his job was done, two of his neighbours were so pleased with the roof they did for Ted. They hired Ipek to do their chimneys. So, Ipek did Ted’s roof and chimney then he did the two chimneys for the people who signed up after Ted’s job was finished and they never got to me. At that point, it started snowing.  They just never got to me so I called them in April. They told me they forgot and I have signed a contract. They came right out and did it immediately. The work was fantastic. I would recommend them to anybody and I would use them any time I need them. Forgetting about me but having times to do two chimneys that were contracted for after mine was bad. The work was good that I really can’t complain and I guess it was an innocent mistake because I hear stories about contractors that don’t show up and they get another job. It wasn’t the case; I just fell through the cracks. I would give them a five star. I’ve had some brick done on my house where one of the walls had to be rebuilt and the other company could not match the bricks but Ipek was able to do it. It’s so perfect. You can’t tell it’s new. If you need a roof or a chimney, use them. It was $2500 minus 10% senior citizen discount and that included the repairs they did to the flashing that the other roofer had messed up. I had a hatch from an old chimney that had been removed and when the other roofer put the new roof on, he should have taken out that hatch and covered it. Ipek did that for me and that was included in the money I paid. I thought that their price was quite fair. I have no complaint about the price."

"Mark and his crew were punctual, professional and tidy. Showed up when they said they would, did what we agreed to, explained the process and answered all questions we had. We would definitely hire again and could not ask for more of a contractor. Definitely 5 stars."

Skylights questions, answered by experts

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.

In most cases, installing skylights will add value to your home, making them a worthwhile investment for many homeowners. Buyers are often attracted to the aesthetic appeal of skylights, as they make rooms feel brighter, airier, and more spacious by introducing natural light without compromising privacy. Beyond aesthetics, skylights can offer monetary benefits by potentially reducing energy bills. Additionally, models that can be opened provide extra ventilation, which is particularly useful in hotter climates for allowing accumulated hot air to escape from the ceiling. However, the return on investment depends on several factors. To maximize value, it's crucial that the skylights are installed by an experienced professional to avoid risks like water damage, which can deter savvy buyers. Regular maintenance and cleaning are also important. Furthermore, choosing the right frame and glazing materials for your specific climate will enhance their performance and appeal. While skylights are generally seen as an asset, homeowners should also consider the initial cost, which averages around $1,500 for installation.

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.

Skylights increase natural light, improve ventilation, and enhance aesthetic appeal in rooms.

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.
