An energy efficient way to bring light into your home. A skylight is a window installed on the roof, through the ceiling of a home or building, allowing natural sunlight to light up a space versus a traditional incandescent light bulb, reducing energy consumption and saving you money.

Skylights are a great way to brighten up a space without sacrificing privacy like a traditional window space, making them ideal for places like a bathroom, bedroom, or kitchen. They are also a great way to lighten up interior and hard-to-light spaces and rooms without outside facing walls.

Skylights offer a way to use natural light and energy to brighten our homes and get the most out of the available light, even when the sun is low in the sky, reducing your carbon footprint and your energy bill. Skylights can also bring aesthetic benefits, bringing out the natural beauty of interior spaces, making colors appear more vibrant and alive, casting a warm glow over the interior living spaces of your home.

Tubular Skylights

Tubular skylights bring soft, natural daylight into any room in your home. A 10” diameter tubular skylight lights up to 150 sq. ft and a 14” tubular skylight lights up to 300 sq. ft. making them a perfect application for any room where a view to the outside is not needed or where regular skylights are not an option such as: Hallways, Closets, Stairways, Bathrooms, or Laundry room.

Tubular Skylights

The domes of solar light tubes are designed to capture daylight at low sun angles and low light, maximizing outdoor light by moving it through the mirrored tube to bring you the most indoor light possible, even in early morning, late afternoon, or winter. The tubular skylight dome material will not yellow over time or require upkeep, and it’s 99% UV resistant.

The tubular skylight’s ceiling trim ring fits clean and tightly over the end of the light tube to let light in and minimizes heat loss from your home, while evenly transmitting light throughout the house.

For smaller more confined spaces a Solar Light Tubes might make an excellent alternative. This design incorporates a reflective tubing that carries the light from a lens installed atop the roof, and down into the intended space in your home such as closets, wash rooms, laundry rooms, etc.

Your attic stays cool and dry, giving you greater comfort and prolonging the life of your roof, all while saving energy and lowering your utility bills.

Sky Shields are similar to sunshades, blocking heat from a vehicle windshield, but made specific to fit your skylight(s) and reduce the temperature transfer up to 50-60°! Our “Summerizing” service means we install your custom-made Sky Shield during peak heat months, then remove and store it once temperatures are below 100 degrees again.

Standard Acrylic Skylights

Curb Mount Skylights

Curb Mount Skylights are installed on top of existing roof curbs. A good analogy is the Skylight is like the “lid” on a box, with the “box” being the roof curb. Curb mount frames are the quickest change-out skylight as the skylight sits over the roofing material that extends to the top of the curb. If everything else is in good shape; just pop off the old one and replace it with the new one. Curb mount styles are the necessary choice for a tile roof. The curb must be built to exceed above the tile height for proper water run-off.

Self-Flashing Skylights

Self Flashing skylights are very popular because they do not need the construction of a curb to install them. The flashing protrudes as part of the frame and the welded seams make for water tight construction. Self flashing frames are ideal for flat and shingle sloped roofs. Both self flashing and curb mount skylights can be fitted with specialty domes to suit your individual specific needs.

Self-Flashing Skylights

Full light diffuser and high visible light transmittance this is the most common kind of skylight.

Bronze over clear acrylic

Custom Skylights

Sometimes custom skylights are easier and cheaper than standard skylights especially from a roofers perspective. If it takes hours to prepare an area to accommodate a skylight that is either in an odd area or you don’t want to disturb the drywall that is already completed on the inside that would normally be disturbed by removing the old one and reframing the inside hole in the roof.

Lense Replacements on an existing skylight

Replacing domes can be quite painless as long as the aluminum frame is in good shape. We will pop off the old retaining ring that holds the skylights into place, we will clean the frame of debris and old sealant. Enlarge the drainage weep holes. Then replace the domes and reinstall the retainer ring. To note, we love to increase the energy efficiency of your skylight when replacing broken acrylic domes. We offer a high UV lens and an option to replace the double lens with three lenses. To add an additional lens to your existing or new skylight, we use our proprietary enlarged retainer rings during the repair or new installation.

HeatShield Energy-Saver Domes

The new acrylic material blocks 67% of infrared heat. It is an affordable, efficient energy saver, which allows natural light transmittance into your home or workspace and greatly blocks heat build-up. There is very little difference between the look of a regular dome and the domes with HeatShield technology except the HeatShield has been infused with the extra additive to make the skylights more efficient at blocking heat.

Self-Flashing Skylights

Self Flashing skylights are very popular because they do not need the construction of a curb to install them. The flashing protrudes as part of the frame and the welded seams make for water tight construction. Self flashing frames are ideal for flat and shingle sloped roofs. Both self flashing and curb mount skylights can be fitted with specialty domes to suit your individual specific needs.
