NEW SKYLIGHT REPLACEMENT NEAR FLANDERS
Does Your House need a New Skylight To Be Installed?
Customers should take into consideration maintaining your roof, flashing and shingles to avoid having skylight weakening that can be very harmful to your skylight and residence. The most common need for a new skylight replacement is from problems when water intrudes its way under the gaps of the skylight itself, into the surrounding skylight flashing and eventually into the home itself. Another reason you may need a new skylight replacement is imperfect construction of what you have there now. There are other potential drawbacks to a skylight. The likelihood of discovering that your skylight is leaking increases with its frequency of use. A homeowner may see their skylight is leaking every time it rains. No matter what the time of year, a skylight is a good and cost-effective way to let important natural light into your your dwelling. More often than not, skylights can be repaired.
The window that makes up the skylight must be fitted precisely to the opening made for it. If the skylight fitting is not connected correctly, you may experience leaks directly. The conflict between indoor and outdoor temperatures creates condensation. Harm is more likely if you need to run your building’s residence’s air conditioner frequently to make your home even more comfortable. Still, it’s a good thought to get your skylight investigated by a highly-trained skylight tech.

Arrays of Skylights We Install
There are generally four major spots our technicians look first to fix that leaky skylight of yours. High quality metal flashing needs to be installed around the skylight to keep it from leaking. Unfortunately, even the best flashing is prone to wear out much sooner than other roofing elements.
We’ll evaluate the skylight’s insulation – because without enough insulation – or no insulation at all – warm air could flow up cautiously from inside the structure and cause condensation. When insulation touches the glass, condensation over and over results, which brings you right back to the problem from above. In some cases, rain could also infiltrate poorly insulated spaces, damaging more insulation as it leaks through. Luckily, this is an easy address that may take only a few minutes.
