"I highly recommend Nice and Fast construction. In addition to impecable work, the professionalism is to be commended. Once the work was completed my building was left clean. It was almost like no work was done. Ahâ ¦.and I was left with a beautiful roof and chimney. The owner Mr. Jaime was very thorough explaining the work, providing options, and most importantly he gave us follow up calls to make sure everything was ok. Nice and Fast is absolutely great and reliable!"

"Great personnel, fantastic job! I know the owner and the team of the company for a few years now. They worked on my company's three properties and recently I hired them for replacing the roof for my own house."

"I hired this company to repair a leaking skylight. They responded promptly to my request and was very professional. They gave me 3 options on the type of work they would do to repair the leaking skylight. I opted for the most expensive option because it came with a 5 year warranty from them. Their price was very affordable compare to other companies. I must have made changes to the contracts at least 3 times. They had no problem accommodating all of my requests. They completed the job when they said they would, working on the roof from morning 'til it was too dark outside to see. They came back following days just to add finishing touches. They were pleasant and professional and I would definitely hire them again."

Skylights questions, answered by experts

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.

Yes, solar tubes work during the winter as long as it’s light outside and they aren’t covered by snow. Sun tunnels are made to work year-round to bring in natural light, and some people find them even more beneficial during the winter. With less daylight outside, it can be even more important to bring brightness into homes to reduce electricity costs.

To maintain a skylight and ensure its performance over time, regular maintenance is required. This includes periodically cleaning the glass and frame to remove dirt, debris, and condensation. It is also crucial to inspect the seals and flashing at least once a year for any signs of wear, degradation, or leaks, paying special attention after heavy storms. Ensure that the drainage system is clear to prevent water buildup and potential leaks. Address minor issues like cracks promptly and consider occasional resealing to prevent drafts and moisture problems. While energy-efficient skylights with Low-E coatings or double glazing may require less upkeep, periodic professional servicing can help keep any skylight in optimal condition.

While it is possible to install a skylight as a DIY project, it is not recommended. Skylights are the most likely type of window to leak due to their position on the roof. Even minor mistakes during installation can lead to significant water damage and high repair costs. Additionally, working on a roof is dangerous, especially when maneuvering heavy, bulky windows. Due to the required roof modifications and the need for proper sealing and structural safety, hiring a professional skylight installer is strongly advised to avoid costly long-term issues.

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.
