"Dealing with O'Brien Brother's Construction was a absolute pleasure from start to finish. The job consisted of removing and replacing a 30x30 vented skylight, new water & ice shield installed along with matching the existing shingles. The job came out great. I highly recommend this company for your next job."

"Kadri was wonderful. He did a beautiful job on time and in budget. Unlike the last roofer I used, he kept the place clean and neat. I can recommend ABC completely."

""I am absolutely thrilled with my new cedar roof! From start to finish, the experience was top-notch. The craftsmanship is impeccable, and the attention to detail is evident in every shingle. The team was professional, courteous, and went above and beyond to ensure I was completely satisfied. Not only does my house look stunning, but I also have peace of mind knowing that my roof is durable and built to last. The natural beauty of the cedar has transformed the entire aesthetic of my home. I've received so many compliments from neighbors and friends! I highly recommend Landstar Construction to anyone considering a cedar roof. Their expertise, quality materials, and exceptional service make them the best in the business. Investing in a cedar roof was one of the best decisions I've made for my home!" Thank you Steve !!"

"I recently had a skylight repaired and a small new roof installed, and I'm very satisfied with the work. The team was professional, punctual, and respectful of the property throughout the project. The skylight no longer leaks and looks great, and the new roof section blends in perfectly with the existing structure. They explained everything clearly before starting, provided a fair quote, and completed the job on time. Clean-up was thorough, and I appreciated their attention to detail. I’d definitely recommend them for both small roofing jobs and more specialized repairs like skylights"

Skylights questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

Most homeowners insurance policies cover skyight damage that is caused by hail. Hail damage is considered a covered peril under most standard insurance policies. However, this only applies if your skylights were properly installed. Also, insurance policies vary, so be sure to check your individual policy to see if skylight hail damage is covered.

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.

Yes, you can install skylights on an existing roof, and it’s a common service that many homeowners opt for, especially on older homes built when skylights weren’t as prevalent. The installation process will be a bit more involved, and the design and planning process will take longer, meaning you’ll pay more to install a skylight on an existing roof than you would in new construction. The process involves cutting a hole in the roof, moving rafters, if necessary, and installing and sealing around the skylight.
