What does skylight installation involve on a typical Elgin home?
We begin with a thorough roof and attic assessment, then select an appropriately sized skylight, and proceed with precise penetrations, flashing, and weather-tight sealing. Our roofers manage interior finishing details, perform a leak test, and leave the work area clean. We also provide guidance on how the skylight will affect insulation and daylight, helping homeowners plan for energy and comfort.
