"I had not educated myself about what was available to replace my worn plastic bubble skylights until recently, but the worry about them breaking during hailstorms was always a concern in the back of my mind. The seal was not tight on my existing skylights and energy efficiency had to be bad. After I researched Velux hail-proof glass and saw Freelite deals with their products, I contacted them via the request a quote on Angie's. I described that I was interested Velux white laminated glass - [*** Link removed ***] (opposed to clear glass or an added blind). Marie was back with me quickly with a fair estimate, and Nathan came a few days later to measure for a formal proposal to be written. My sizes were standard and I'm sure that helped, but received nothing but professional service from Marie and Nathan, and the installation looks great. The new glass keeps out a ton of noise as well. If only finding a good window company was this simple. Happy customer!"

"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."

"The roofer did not show up at the appointment time. When I finally called to see why no one came I was told they didn't come due to the rain. I believe they were in Dallas. I am in the mid cities and it had not rained at all. The problem was no one called me to tell me they would not come or ask if it was raining where I was. So the lady asked if I still wanted a roofer to come and we arranged for him to come right away which she said would be about 40 minutes. 1 1/2 hours later the man arrived. He walked around on the roof a short time and then showed me some pictures of where the roof needed to be replaced and a few minor spots of re nailing. He said I would get an estimate from the company. I told him I wanted copies of the pictures. I repeated this a number of times. The man was hispanic and I am not sure how well we were understanding each other. I later got a one line estimate to replace part of roof...no detail as to how much material, etc., no other detail to repairs, no pictures. I called the company as I was in process of selling my house and needing to know what had to be done or not done but was not going to give a "blank check" to fix "whatever". The estimate also did not deduct the amount spent on the Angie's Deal as promised in the deal.The office finally corrected that and sent me a new quote minus that...but no further detail as to materials or pictures. My impression: the Angie's Deal for this company is a sham...not worth the expense as you get little for your $$ and they hopefully get a customer for thousands of $$ of roofing repair. I also hear this company advertised on the radio frequently and I do not recommend. I did end up with another company who looked at my roof with my insurance adjuster and I replaced the total roof in a few days time. The new company was terrific to work with and allowed me to close on time and sell my home."

"Venessa and her team were prompt and professional. They stayed within budget and in the time constraints. My family was visiting from Florida and we had to have the project finished at a certain time.  Venessa showed up to check on the job everyday.  She also assisted with the colors of the interior and exterior of my house. Miguel and his sons were the installers. I could tell how professional they are and they replaced my windows in 1 day."

"They did a bunch of work for me. I got them through Angie's List and they did a hell of a job. They have done about three or four jobs for me. They fixed my roof and fixed it again. They did the siding because we had a raccoon coming in that destroyed the siding. They completed the side of it and the paint matched. Everything was fantastic. They are probably the best ones."

"Our home is an older home and needed a lot of items repaired/ replaced. We are new homeowners and aren't the most knowledgeable on roofing necessities. Dean, the inspector/ owner came out to look over our roof and showed us the items that needed to be repaired. Dean takes pride in his work and is very  knowledgeable/friendly which made us feel comfortable.  Since this is a smaller company we definitely received the attention and detailed services.
The inspector called us immediately when our custom made chimney cap was available to install and scheduled an appointment to come the same day.  They were very responsive, informative, and punctual.   They completed everything in one day and walked me around to show me all items that were replaced.  The custom fabricated and installed chimney cap is very nice and exactly what was expected/ ordered. In total we had replaced one plumbing pipe flashing,four damaged shingles.  They also described what was done such as resealing all Plumbing Pipe Flashings, one skylight dome,resurfaced and painted two heater vents, and filled in wood fascia with expansion foam and coated with waterproofing paint.  Everything looks great and they provide a one year warranty.  The price was fair and I would call again / recommend them to friends and family for their services.  We will be using them for our next project to replace all our gutters.

"We own a small pier and beam rent house (900sf) in a small town outside of Ft. Worth. It had settled a lot over the years and we hired integrity to level it. We contacted them and they gave us an estimate for the work. We couldn't find a date that worked well for both of us, and they agreed to do the work on a Sunday, which was wonderful. They arrived on time and immediately went to work. They replaced two beams under the house and installed 16 supports, blocking and shims. It took approximately 1/2 day and it was good quality work. We are pleased with the results and will definitely use them again when needed.

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, you can add blinds or shades to both roof windows and skylights, but roof windows tend to have more options available. Retractable skylight shades are popular on both options for added privacy, light control, and heat reduction, although they’re more expensive than manually-operated blinds or shades. If you have a roof window or skylight set in a high ceiling, a motorized or solar-powered skylight window covering is probably your best bet.

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.

The decision to remove a skylight depends on your specific circumstances and preferences. There are several reasons why you might consider removing a skylight, such as extensive damage, a desire for better insulation, or the need to change the room's layout. Additionally, if the skylight is causing leaks or other issues, it may be necessary to remove and replace it (which can incur additional skylight installation costs). It's important to assess your specific situation and consult with professionals if needed to make an informed decision.

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.
