"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."

"We hired the boys to replace 3 skylights and our metal roof. the old Marvin skylights are no longer produced so they replaced them with Velux skylights of a different size. this, of course, required a retrimming of the interior opening. when I asked about this the boss, Paul, replied: we do not do trim carpentry. you will have to get someone else to do that. needless to say that I was irate. not only does the job look like hell, in one case I cannot even open it. the overall job was excellent but, if you plan to get skylights replaced, be sure that you have the internal trim work figured out beforehand. I would recommend a written contract."

"Great! Jason came the very next morning, inspected my roof and provided me three different options and clearly informed me on the upside and downsides of each option. I chose the option that would be quicker because of snowstorm approaching next day. Small roof repair done same day!"

"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."

Skylights questions, answered by experts

The most popular treatment for a skylight is skylight shades. There are five primary types: manual, motorized, blackout, cellular//honeycomb, and Venetian. Motorized skylight shades are the most convenient, especially for skylights that are higher up, but manual shades are the most cost-effective treatments. Cellular/honeycomb shades are a perfect option for anyone who wants energy efficiency and an attractive look.

Pros of installing a skylight include the fact that you will get much more natural light in your home, skylights can make your room look bigger than it actually is, and your home may increase in value. Cons include difficult upkeep (you may have to get on a ladder to clean and maintain them), higher installation costs, and, potentially, too much heat gain from all the extra sunlight.

Roof windows and skylights can be installed on various roof materials, but skylights are usually the only option that you have if you have a flat roof or a roof with a slope under 15 degrees. In these cases, roof windows have too high of a risk of leaking to be suitable options. The specific installation requirements may vary, so it's important to hire a window replacement contractor. Certain types of roofs may not be ideal if they limit the size of the window or if they pose an issue with rainwater collecting around the area.

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.

Local window and door specialists, glaziers, and roofers should all install skylights. You can also do an internet search to find companies that specialize in skylight installation near you. Keep in mind that skylight installation is very complex and can be dangerous without the proper tools and safety precautions, so we don’t recommend this as a DIY project.
