Can I add blinds or shades to roof windows and skylights?

• <div><p>Yes, you can add blinds or shades to both roof windows and skylights, but roof windows tend to have more options available. Retractable <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-to-choose-skylight-shades.htm">skylight shades</a> 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.</p></div>

How is a skylight professionally repaired or sealed?

• <div><p>Professionals repair or seal a skylight by inspecting for damages, resealing any gaps with appropriate weatherproofing materials, replacing cracked glass or seals, and ensuring the frame is tightly fitted to prevent future leaks and ensure proper drainage.</p></div>

Which types of lights are best for my project?

• <div><p>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.</p></div>

What questions should I ask a skylight installer before hiring?

• <div><p>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:</p><ul><li><p>Do you specialize in skylight installation or only windows in general?</p></li><li><p>Do you offer any kind of warranty for the installation?</p></li><li><p>What recourse do I have if the skylight leaks shortly after installation?</p></li><li><p>Do you have references I can speak with?</p></li><li><p>How long have you been in business?</p></li><li><p>Are you licensed and insured?</p></li></ul><p></p></div>

How long does it typically take to repair or replace a skylight?

• <div><p>Repairing or replacing a skylight generally takes a few hours to a full day. The time frame can vary based on weather conditions, accessibility, and the extent of the work required, such as replacing an entire unit rather than conducting minor repairs.</p></div>
