"This company advertised their five star Velux rating, but I'm not impressed by ratings that seem to be self-serving. However, these guys earned their superior rating! They worked with me to get the right product, fully explaining all my options and the advantages / disadvantages of each. On the day of the install, professional installers showed up and explained everything they were going to do. The went right to work and did a great job. They cleaned up the entire workspace - inside and out. I am very pleased with my new skylights and solar tunnel. I would definitely use this firm again."

"I called a number of roofing companies to get an estimate on either a roof repair or new roof (after a mishap on my garage). Chris Hawk with Everlasting Roofing was the only company to give me an honest answer. We ended up deciding on a new roof and Everlasting Roof gave the best price for the materials. He kept in good communication with us and they just finished the work last week. The job looks impeccable and the workers were remarkably fast and quiet. I would hire them again in a heartbeat."
"I received a glowing recommendation of RoofWise from my accountant & contacted them regarding a stubborn leak I've battled where the family room addition meets the original house. I also asked for a recommendation regarding ongoing garage leaks. Following a detailed inspection Roofwise provided me with an estimate which included work they recommended, as well as additional options addressing problems I hadn't yet dentified but were likely to cause problems in the future. I decided to go ahead with all the work and options, including replacing the skylights which were definitely showing signs of age. The garage was completed in a day, and a smaller crew worked the next 4 days completing the more labor intensive work. The workers were professional throughout, & made a number of additional repairs not included in the original estimate. Although the repairs were only recently completed, I have not experienced any further problems and would strongly recommend RoofWise for future roofing needs.
"Both are excellent quality. They worked with us to make sure we got the right product for us at a very reasonable price. The servicemen were very friendly, knowledgeable and efficient. Our windows and doors look fantastic! We will definitely be using them again in the future for other purchases! "
Water will leak through a skylight if there are issues in the sealing of the skylight. Find and fix those issues yourself if possible, but it’s a good idea to contact a professional, as there could be much more water damage than you initially saw. Plus, it’s dangerous to work on a roof without the proper safety equipment and know-how.
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.
Yes, you can cover up a skylight if you no longer wish to have it in your space. There are a few options for covering up a skylight. One option is to install a skylight cover or shade that can be easily opened or closed as needed, allowing you to control the amount of light entering the room. Another option is to cover the skylight with a solid material, such as plywood or drywall, effectively sealing it off. However, when covering a skylight, it's essential to ensure proper insulation and waterproofing to prevent any issues in the future.
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.
