"This was basically an emergency rescue; our previous "roofer" was clearly doing the job so badly that we had to tell him to stop. So, Western PA came within a day, looked at the roof, shook their heads, and gave us a remarkably good quote, in a situation where they knew we weren't in a position to argue. We appreciate that! They we able to start just 6 days after our first call, which was really good, because we didn't really have a roof at that point. They were up and working within 10 minutes of arrival, and they clearly knew what they were doing. They were fast and efficient on both parts of the roof; they had a 5-man team, and they clearly worked together a lot. The first day was not a particularly good day to be roofing: periodic showers. They stuck it out until it started pouring, and by that time, they'd gotten the main roof waterproof (although still incomplete). The next day, they show up at 8:00 am, and the hammering started by 8:30. Everything went smoothly; the lines of the roof are straight, the flashing looks good. Toward afternoon, they found that the previous "roofer" had installed the top section of two new skylights onto old bottom sections, and they weren't quite compatible: there wasn't enough height to tuck the flashing under the top sections' overhang. But they were able to do a bit of carpentry to lift the bottom sections, and they had the roof finished by mid afternoon, and cleaned it all up nicely. They really know how to do slate roofs. (And, we've found that a lot of roofers don't, including many that think they do.) "
"Zach is a hardworking and honest contractor. He replaced some leaking skylights, and repaired a section of roof that was leaking around another. He and his crew put in more than a full days work staying late to finish the job. His price was very fair and I would definitely hire him again. Of note, he also knows his limitations and did not attempt to work on a larger flat roof and gave me some recommendations for someone to call for that. Much better than working on it and having a bad outcome down the road. I appreciated this honesty."
"Had a skylight leaking and of course it was during a week long rain, but the second Penn Ohio could make it out, they did. The skylight is not leaving anymore and they were very honest about what needed done and was very reasonable. Would recommend to anyone."
"Heritage roofing provided a free estimate to remove my skylight at a reasonable cost and performed the work shortly after the estimate despite it being 20 degrees out the were up on my roof and did the work quickly and effectively. I would highly recommend Heritage."
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.
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.
Prevent future skylight issues by conducting regular inspections, ensuring gutters are clean to prevent water pooling, applying protective sealants periodically, and trimming overhanging branches that might cause physical damage to the skylight.
A skylight's ability to withstand hail depends on factors like material quality and thickness. Impact-resistant options, such as tempered or laminated glass, fare better against hail compared to standard glass. Proper installation and regular maintenance also contribute to their resilience. While smaller hailstones may not pose a significant threat, larger ones can cause damage. Consider skylight protection methods like covers or screens in hail-prone areas to enhance durability and minimize potential harm.
Yes, if you have ventilated skylights, you can install insect screens on them. Insect screens for skylights cost $10 to $50 each, depending on their size and quality. Most pros highly recommend insect screens for ventilated skylights because they keep pests outside of your home while allowing fresh air inside.
