FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
Expert answers about skylight installation, attic ventilation, and costs in Houston, Sugar Land, Pearland & Katy
Will a skylight leak in heavy rain?
No, not when properly installed. Modern skylights with quality flashing systems are completely watertight when installed by professionals. We use premium brands like Velux with proven track records in Houston's heavy rains. The key is proper installation – we follow manufacturer specifications exactly and offer warranties on our work.
How much does skylight installation cost in Houston?
Skylight installation costs vary by type and size:
- Sun tunnels / tubular skylights: $500-$1,200 installed
- Fixed skylights (non-opening): $1,000-$2,500 installed
- Venting skylights (manual): $1,500-$2,800 installed
- Venting skylights (electric): $2,000-$3,500 installed
Prices include materials, professional installation, flashing, interior finishing, and cleanup. Contact us for a free estimate.
How do I know if my attic ventilation is adequate?
Signs of inadequate attic ventilation include:
- Excessive attic heat (over 150°F in summer)
- Moisture, condensation, or frost in attic
- Mold or mildew growth
- Premature shingle aging or curling
- High cooling bills despite adequate insulation
The rule of thumb: You need 1 square foot of net free ventilation per 150 square feet of attic space, with balanced intake (soffit) and exhaust (ridge vents). We provide free ventilation assessments.
Do skylights make rooms too hot in Houston summers?
Not with modern energy-efficient skylights. Today's skylights feature Low-E coatings and tinted glass that block UV rays and infrared heat while allowing visible light through. These technologies can block up to 95% of UV radiation and significantly reduce heat gain.
Additional heat control options include factory-installed blinds, motorized shades, and venting skylights that release hot air.
