Frequently asked questions
Do you charge for an estimate?
Estimates are free — a specialist inspects it from inside and up on the roof, then gives you the exact price before any work is done.
How soon can you come out?
We can usually get out to look pretty quickly, and for an active leak we try to prioritize it. Let me grab your details and get you scheduled.
How much to fix or replace a skylight?
It depends on the type of skylight, your roof, and whether it needs a repair or a new unit — so the specialist looks first and gives you the exact price up front. The estimate is free.
My skylight is leaking
I'm sorry, let's get that handled. Please put a bucket or towel under the drip and keep electronics clear, and we'll get a specialist out to find where it's coming in and stop it.
There are water stains on my ceiling near it
That's worth having looked at — the specialist will inspect it inside and out, find the source, and go over the fix with you. No charge for the estimate.
The glass is foggy or cloudy
We can help with that — the specialist will take a look at the glass and let you know the best way to get your clear view back, with the price up front.
My venting skylight won't open or close
No problem — whether it's a crank or a motorized one, the specialist will take a look and get it working again, and go over the price first.
Do you install sun tunnels / tubular skylights?
Yes, sun tunnels are a great way to bring daylight into a hallway or bath where a full skylight won't fit. The specialist can look and give you a free quote.
Do you install solar or venting skylights?
Yes, we install solar and venting skylights, and solar ones often qualify for a tax credit. We'll go over the options and give you an exact price for free.
Do you work on VELUX / a specific brand?
Yes, we work on all the major skylight brands, including VELUX. Let me get a few details and set up a visit.
Should I replace the skylight when I re-roof?
That's a smart question — skylights and roofs often wear out around the same time, so the specialist can advise on timing them together. It usually saves money and headaches.
Do you do commercial buildings?
Yes, we handle commercial skylights as well as homes. Let me get your info and set it up.
What's your warranty?
We stand behind our work — the specialist will go over the exact warranty on the unit and our labor when he's there.
Do you offer financing / payment options?
That's a good question — let me have the office confirm the current payment options and we'll go over them with you.
Do you service my area?
We're local and cover your area — I'll just grab your address and set up a free inspection.
⚠️ Safety first
- Water actively dripping in through the skylight: Let's protect your home first — put a bucket or towel right under the drip and move any electronics or valuables out from under it. Please don't get on the roof in the rain; we'll get a specialist out to find where it's coming in and stop it.
- Ceiling is sagging or bulging near the skylight from trapped water: Please stay out from directly under that spot — trapped water can make a ceiling give way. If it's bulging badly, keep everyone clear, and we'll get someone out to look as soon as we can.
- Skylight glass is cracked or broken above a living space: Please keep everyone away from directly below it in case a piece comes down, and don't try to reach it yourself. We'll send a specialist to make it safe and take care of the glass.
- Homeowner is about to climb onto the roof to check it: I'd really rather you stay off the roof — it's easy to get hurt or make a leak worse up there, especially when it's wet. Let our specialist handle it; that's exactly what we're here for.
Know the terms
- Flashing
- The layered metal-and-membrane kit that seals the skylight into the roof and directs water around it.
- Fixed skylight
- A skylight that doesn't open — the simplest and most leak-resistant type.
- Venting skylight / roof window
- A skylight that opens by crank or motor for fresh air; powered ones often have rain sensors.
- Sun tunnel / tubular skylight
- A small roof dome that pipes daylight down a reflective tube into a room where a full skylight won't fit.
- Curb-mounted vs. deck-mounted
- Two ways a skylight sits on the roof — on a raised wood curb, or fastened flat to the roof deck.
- Failed seal / foggy pane
- When the seal between the two panes of glass fails, moisture gets in and the glass looks permanently foggy.
- Solar skylight
- A venting skylight powered by a small solar cell; often qualifies for tax credits.
