Home Skylights

How do you achieve great indoor lighting while saving money on your energy bill? Of course, the solution is a skylight.


Skylights can bring up to 30% more natural light into your home than a standard vertical window. Thanks to their location and high-tech materials, modern skylights can equally fill your rooms with natural light or focus that light on one specific area.

How Can I Tell if my Skylight Needs Replacing?

When it comes to skylights, the damage is usually easy to spot if you know what to look for. After that, the specialist will be able to tell you if repair or replacement is required. Look out for the following signs that you should contact us:

  • Water stains
  • Drafts
  • Discolored ceiling and bubbling
  • Cracks in the glass or plastic
  • Damp ceiling
  • Condensation

These symptoms can pose a threat to your property by causing problems with the roof structure and, eventually, the foundation. It can also lead to mold growth, which can make your family members sick. Please contact us as soon as you notice any damage to your roof window.



What are the major causes of the skylight leaks?

Water seeps between the skylight slots and into the surrounding flashing, the flat roof membrane that rises up the curb, which is the most common source of skylight leaks. This water usually freezes and expands during the winter months. This can also cause the gap to widen, and after several seasons of constant expansion and contraction, the skylight will begin to leak. Improper installation is another cause of roof windows leaking. Therefore, it is extremely important that professionals install roof windows.

Home Skylights FAQs

See some common questions and answers below, or call us at (817) 904-5828. 

  • 1. How much do skylights cost?

    The cost of installing a skylight varies considerably depending on the type of skylight and whether you do it yourself or hire a contractor. The usual price range is $900 to $2,300, with the national average around $1,500.

  • 2. What are skylights?

    Skylights can provide both light and ventilation. The heated air, which naturally collects towards the ceiling, is released through an operating skylight when the building is ventilated. The bottom of most vent skylights opens outward, while some systems vent through a small hinged panel.

  • 3. How to clean skylights?

    For cleaning, use only mild soap and water or a solution of water and vinegar, or contact the manufacturer for exact instructions. Glass cleaners containing ammonia or alcohol can damage the surface! If you have hard water, clean your skylights with distilled water to avoid mineral buildup.

  • 4. What to do with the ceiling after removing skylights?

    The ceiling and roof can be secured with drywall and plywood once the new frame and polyethylene are in place. After that, you can add additional attic insulation and build a suitable roof. The final step will be gluing and painting the new drywall to match the existing ceiling.
