Damage During Roof Replacement
One of the most common reasons we’re called by roofing companies is damage to existing skylights that take place during their replacement of the roof. We’re able to provide you priority on our schedule to make sure your project can move forward without any further delay. This project in Aurora saw minimal damage done to an incredibly old solar tube that was already susceptible to breakage.
When our customers replace their roofs, we always encourage them to take the opportunity to replace their skylight, too. Especially if it’s older and in poor condition. This way their warranties line up congruently and they maximize protection from any potential flashing leaks. If you’re a roofing contractor and see a skylight similar to the one below, do your customer a favor and strongly suggest replacement.
In and Out
With solar tubes or sun tunnels, replacement is very straight forward and typically requires just an afternoon of work. Especially when done in coordination with your roof replacement, we’re able to quickly remove the existing product and prepare a clean install area on the decking of the roof.
Despite this roof being done before we were called, the low pitch & asphalt shingles on this property made for an easy swap. Our crew of technicians are trained in each type of roofing material to ensure your product maintains the same integrity, quality and warranty you left behind for your customer.
VELUX Sun Tunnels are always our #1 recommendation for replacement, unless the homeowner already has their own preference. The wide range of products they offer guarantee a fit for any type of roofing application and their gray coloring allows for a seamless blend into any color or style of roofing material.
