How big can skylights be?

• <div><p>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 <a href="https://www.energy.gov/energysaver/skylights">U.S. Department of Energy</a> recommends that a skylight’s size should never be more than 5% of the floor area in rooms with many windows.</p></div>

How do I maintain a skylight?

• <div><p>Clean glass regularly, inspect seals for wear, and ensure proper drainage to avoid leaks.</p></div>

What are the pros and cons of skylights?

• <div><p>Pros of installing a skylight include the fact that you will get much more natural light in your home, skylights can make your room look bigger than it actually is, and your home may increase in value. Cons include difficult upkeep (you may have to get on a ladder to clean and maintain them), higher installation costs, and, potentially, too much heat gain from all the extra sunlight.</p></div>

Why is water coming in through my skylight?

• <div><p>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.</p></div>

Can you replace skylights without replacing the roof?

• <div><p>Yes, you can replace a skylight without changing the entire roof—if the roof is in good shape. First, you need to make sure the roof around the skylight is intact and free of damage. Quality installation is crucial to prevent leaks, including replacing the flashing, which seals the skylight to the roof. While replacing the skylight alone is doable, it can make sense to replace both at once to streamline the work, coordinate the warranties, and reduce the risk of future leaks. If you’re unsure, <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/who-to-call-to-repair-skylight.htm">reach out to a professional</a> for help in deciding the best approach. </p></div>
