SKYLIGHT INSTALLATION IN MAINE, MASSACHUSETTS

DID YOU KNOW THAT SKYLIGHTS ARE ONE OF THE BEST WAYS TO INVITE NATURAL LIGHT INTO YOUR HOME?

Not only do they provide free sunlight during the day, but they can also help lower your energy costs. At Tech Shield Roofing, our professional installers have extensive knowledge of reliable skylight brands, advanced industry techniques, and a commitment to exceeding client expectations.

WHAT IS A SKYLIGHT?

A skylight is a window installed on your roof, allowing beautiful natural light to flow into your home. Skylights are an excellent way to brighten up any room and can also reduce your reliance on artificial lighting.

TYPES OF SKYLIGHTS

There are various types of skylights available, including:

Fixed Skylights:These are the most common type and cannot be opened or closed, making them the most energy-efficient option.

Ventilated Skylights:These can be opened and closed, giving you control over the amount of light and ventilation that enters your home. They're perfect for areas that tend to get stuffy, like kitchens and bathrooms.

Tubular Skylights:Small, round skylights installed in your ceiling, tubular skylights are ideal for smaller spaces, such as closets.

THE SKYLIGHT INSTALLATION PROCESS

At Tech Shield Roofing, we take great pride in our work and strive to ensure that you are completely satisfied with the finished product. When we arrive at your home for the skylight installation, you can expect the following:

• Location Assessment: We’ll determine the best location for the skylight on your roof, as the size and type of skylight will dictate the size of the opening.
• Cutting the Opening: We’ll carefully cut the hole in the roof and install flashing around the perimeter. This flashing is a waterproof barrier that helps prevent leaks.
• Installing the Skylight: Once the flashing is in place, we’ll securely install the skylight, ensuring it is properly sealed.
• Interior Trim Installation: Finally, we’ll add the interior trim around the skylight. This not only gives it a polished look but also provides additional support.
• Overall, this process typically takes about 6 hours to complete.

SKYLIGHT REPAIR

If your skylight becomes damaged, it’s crucial to address it promptly. Water leaks can lead to significant damage inside your home, so it’s important to tackle issues as soon as they arise.

Identifying the Leak:The first step in repairing a skylight is locating the source of the leak.

Repairing the Damage:Once the leak is identified, we can repair the affected area with new flashing or sealant.

Replacement if Necessary: If the damage is extensive, we may need to replace the entire skylight.
