Skylight Frequently Asked Questions

Answers to Your Most Common Questions

Have questions about J.A.Y. Construction’s skylight services?

You’re in the right place. Here you’ll find helpful answers about our skylight installation process — including timelines, materials, warranties, and financing options.

Our goal is to make your project experience clear, transparent, and stress-free from start to finish.

What is siding?

Siding is the exterior material that protects your home from the elements. It enhances your home's appearance and energy efficiency. Various materials, such as vinyl, wood, and fiber cement, are commonly used.

How long does siding last?

The lifespan of siding varies by material. Vinyl siding can last up to 40 years, while wood siding may need replacement every 20 years. Proper maintenance can extend the life of your siding significantly.

Is siding weather resistant?

Yes, quality siding is designed to withstand various weather conditions, including rain, wind, and snow. Materials like fiber cement and vinyl offer excellent resistance to moisture and temperature fluctuations. Proper installation is key to maximizing durability.

Can I paint siding?

Yes, most siding types can be painted, especially wood and fiber cement. However, vinyl siding typically requires special paint for best results. Always consult with a professional to determine the best approach for your siding.

What is the cost?

The cost of siding installation varies based on material, labor, and your home's size. On average, homeowners can expect to pay between $3,000 and $15,000. For a precise estimate, we recommend scheduling a consultation.

Are skylights a good investment for my home?

Yes. Skylights increase natural light, improve ventilation, enhance energy efficiency, and can raise home value. When professionally installed, skylights make rooms feel larger, brighter, and more comfortable year-round.

Do skylights cause leaks?

No — properly installed skylights do not leak. Leaks are almost always caused by poor installation or outdated materials. J.A.Y. Construction uses manufacturer-approved flashing systems and installation methods to ensure a watertight seal.

Is J.A.Y. Construction a certified Velux skylight installer?

Yes. J.A.Y. Construction is a Velux Certified Skylight Installer, meaning installations meet Velux’s strict standards for performance, safety, and weather protection.

What types of skylights do you install?

We install a full range of Velux skylights, including:

  • Fixed skylights
  • Venting (manual & solar-powered) skylights
  • Sun tunnels
  • Skylights with integrated blinds

We help you choose the best option based on your roof type, room layout, and lighting goals.

How long does skylight installation take?

Most skylight installations are completed in one day. More complex projects or multiple skylights may take longer, but we always provide a clear timeline before work begins.

Will a skylight make my home hotter in summer or colder in winter?

No. Modern Velux skylights use Low-E, argon-filled glass designed to regulate indoor temperatures, reduce heat gain in summer, and prevent heat loss in winter — improving overall energy efficiency.

Can you replace an old or leaking skylight?

Yes. We specialize in skylight replacement and upgrades, especially older acrylic or improperly installed units. Replacing outdated skylights often solves recurring leaks and improves insulation and appearance.

Do you offer warranties on skylight installation?

Yes. Velux skylights include manufacturer warranties, and J.A.Y. Construction stands behind all workmanship. We’ll explain warranty coverage clearly during your estimate.

Are you licensed and insured?

Absolutely. J.A.Y. Construction is fully licensed and insured, giving homeowners peace of mind that their skylight installation meets all local building codes and safety standards.

Can skylights be installed on any roof?

Most roofs can accommodate skylights, including asphalt shingle, flat, and certain specialty roofs. We evaluate roof pitch, structure, and drainage before recommending the right skylight solution.

Do skylights qualify for energy tax credits?

Some Velux skylights may qualify for energy efficiency tax credits, depending on model and current regulations. We can help you understand available options during your consultation.
