"What a difference this skylight made! There was an old skylight in our master bath, which was acrylic and had become clouded through the decades. Innovative Skylights replaced it with their beautiful glass Velux skylight. The clear glass lets in much more sunlight than the old one, doesn't leak or have condensation like the old one, and looks great from the inside and outside. All the people involved were professional, knowledgable, friendly and did their jobs with excellence. Wish we'd done this years ago. Highly recommended."
"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."

"job went well, the guys were very clean and did quality work. This is the 2nd time I used Sunlite Exteriors and will use them again in the near future. Bob is easy to talk to and is fair. He went above and beyond both times I used his company to make me completely satisfied"
"Very professional and got the job done in the time frame estimated. They have followed up since to make sure roof is functioning as it should after heavy storms."
"DAV is a professional, very efficient roofer and we are SO glad we were referred to them by neighbors who were all equally surprised at the wonderful, easy way they roof job went. They helped us all the way through and even drove by a house that I loved the roof of and identified the roof so I got that gorgeous Georgetown Gray !! Our gutters are now a beautiful copper finish and that didn’t cost much more than the boring colors. The people are honest, go the extra mile and are so friendly. The owner is a truly nice man and knows quality materials and techniques and that is why he is successful. 10 plus out of 10!! So proud of how my house looks now!!! All 4 surrounding neighbors used them, because they saw how painless and quick it was and how beautiful it looked."
"It was fantastic from start to finish, he was even willing to accept a payment plan to help us out. He was the most polite contractor I ever dealt with and gave us a very fair price, he was the cheapest out of the 5 roofers that I contacted"
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.
Skylights are the most likely windows to leak if installed improperly, so there are a few questions you should ask any skylight installer before you hire them:
Do you specialize in skylight installation or only windows in general?
Do you offer any kind of warranty for the installation?
What recourse do I have if the skylight leaks shortly after installation?
Do you have references I can speak with?
How long have you been in business?
Are you licensed and insured?
The type of lighting you choose can have a big part in the aesthetic and function of your space. Ambient lighting refers to indirect or diffused lighting that evenly reaches most areas of the space. Task lighting illuminates specific areas, such as a workspace. Accent lighting draws attention to details in your home, and decorative lighting draws attention to itself.
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.
Installation typically takes 1-2 days, depending on the required roof type and structural modifications.
