Master Roofers · Selecting a High Quality Skylight Contractor (with VELUX Skylights)

John Maher: Hi, I am John Maher and I'm here today with Brett Rogenski, General Manager of Master Roofers, the most trusted roofing company in New Hampshire for over 80 years. Welcome, Brett.

Brett Rogenski: Thanks, John. Thank you for having me.

John: Sure. And our special guest today is Ryan Sturgis, Senior Sales representative at VELUX, a residential and commercial skylight and roof window manufacturer. Welcome, Ryan.

Ryan Sturgis: John, glad to be here. Thanks.

Essential Qualities to Look For in Skylights

John: Sure. Today we're talking about some important factors in selecting a high-quality skylight contractor, but Ryan, let's talk a little bit about skylights in general. What are some of the essential qualities to look for in a skylight product in terms of durability, energy efficiency, and safety?

Ryan: Well, John, skylights are all over the world. They need to withstand summer heat in Florida, Arizona, Texas. They need to withstand the cold of Canada, of Northern Scandinavia. So, everything about the skylight is chosen with that rigor in mind, if you want to think of it that way. The gaskets, the sealant, the glass, thermal characteristics. There's a lot that goes into it and it's always being iterated on, if you will.

But really, probably one of the most important things is regarding safety. Skylights come standard now with laminated glass. I don't think a lot of people are aware of that. It is the most safe because that inner pane of your skylight, it's glass on a slope above you, sometimes above your bed, and so it behaves like your car windshield, which is also a skylight when you think about it, and so if that glass were to ever break for any reason, it would just hang there stuck to that acrylic interlay of laminate. Skylights are very durable and definitely code compliant in the safety department for sure.

John: Do all skylights have that safety measure or is this something particular to VELUX?

Ryan: No. A lot of manufacturers, that would probably be a choice and an upcharge, something that you would have to be educated, have a certain knowledge to specify and you would have to pay extra.

For us, it is just a standard. When we feel like we carry the flag for the skylight category, we have to take leadership and we want to make sure that everything that we put out into the world, if you will, is code compliant almost no matter how it's used, basically. And that's what that laminated glass assures us.

Skylight Energy Efficiency

John: What about in terms of energy efficiency? Are modern skylights more energy efficient than older types of skylights?

Ryan: Very much so. You would find if you were driving by older skylights from the '80s, in the winter, that the snow would be melted off of it, but also melted sometimes even all around it, which is indicating how much heat's being lost. Glass has come a long way, not just for skylights, but for regular vertical windows as well and with the glazing variant that is standard, it's so efficient that when you add a shade to it, a solar-powered shade, which we provide frequently for customers, the tested U-value that the government uses for Energy Star drops all the way to 0.25. And that may not mean too much to a lot of people -- what it amounts to, though, is if you can see behind me, the snow doesn't immediately melt off that skylight. The snow can last a couple of weeks. And some people don't like that. I do like it. I feel that the snow is adding another layer of insulation and it's just indicating that it's not just a hole in the roof. It's quite well insulated. The snow finally melted off that skylight behind me when it warmed up outside, Brett, because it's been unseasonably warm for the last week or two.

Skylights can be quite energy efficient, and that's something that a lot of people aren't aware of if they're just used to skylights from the '80s.

Brett: Yeah, I think that that's something that we... That's feedback that we get very commonly from customers and prospects, people who are looking at maybe replacing older skylights, is they're really shocked at how much more efficient modern skylights are, how much more well insulated they are.

Going back to the other discussion on the safety, that's something a lot of people don't think about and, living here in New England, a lot of folks have skylights because they have beautiful trees around their home and that sort of thing. I lived in the lakes region for a long time. Well, occasionally that beautiful pine tree loses a large limb and it lands on your roof, which is a problem. But you and the owner and the insurance company and a roofer will help figure that out. But what you don't want to have is a family member get injured with glass raining in, and you're right, with VELUX, you don't have to worry about that. With some other manufacturers who do not use laminated glass, that's a distinct possibility.

The whole key to a situation like that is we don't want anyone to get hurt, and we certainly don't want them to get hurt from that, so that added protection is fabulous.

Skylight Certifications and Warranties

John: Absolutely. Ryan, what sorts of certifications and warranties should homeowners prioritize when they're selecting a skylight brand?

Ryan: I would say unless you have an unusual local code like Miami-Dade certification or something like that, then skylights have a wide range of certifications that are most relevant to, probably more so, architects, they certainly fulfill every requirement where we're at, which is New England right now.

The most important thing that I would want a homeowner to know is about the warranty, specifically, there are different warranties for different aspects of the skylight. The hardware, any electronics, the glass. The glass is warrantied for 20 years, as a matter of fact.

But the most unexpected one may be that we have a no leak warranty. If that skylight leaks, under any circumstances, then we cover damages, product, and labor for 10 years. And it certainly isn't that we expect there to even be an issue in 10 years, it's just that the idea is, within a decade, that skylight has been put through its paces. You have had that storm come up the coast, you have had that ice storm, you've had a lot of snow and then had it rain and freeze. You've had all these conditions occur and the skylight has come through on the other end and performed.

So, you have cut a hole in your roof and we just need to be worthy of that trust. It's a big deal to us and part of that is taking explicit ownership of that hole in the roof with that no leak warranty.

Common Misconceptions About Skylights

John: Are there any common misconceptions that people still have about skylights and roof windows that they should be aware of?

Ryan: Yeah, I would say there are probably two primary ones. One would be that skylights leak, that all skylights leak. An enormous amount has been done with that. Starting in 2010, we redesigned our skylight, again to take ownership of that hole, and that's when that no leak warranty started. Everyone likes what skylights do, John. Everyone likes natural daylight, everyone likes fresh air, but there are some for whom the risks of a skylight outweigh that. And so we had to take ownership at that time and we redesigned everything, putting it through real world practical tests, not computer modeling, to make sure that it performed to our expectations. So, we've hit that on the head and folks that are inclined to get a little extra day lighting into the core of their space, they can do so with confidence. That would be the first one.

The second one is just that the skylight is an energy drain. There is that thought out there, and what we've done there…I mentioned earlier about U-Value, and that's probably a little bit obscure for listeners, I guess, but all reputable companies submit a product to a third party lab for testing, and that is used by the NFRC and Energy Star. And what that effectively does is, our skylight has a 0.42 U-Value without a shade, but with a shade people would be, I think, shocked to realize that it improves the energy efficiency about 40% by adding a shade to the skylight. Creating that dead air space between the fabric and the inner pane of glass makes an enormous difference in energy efficiency and provides a very, very generous federal tax credit at the same time, in the amount of 30% on the entire project.

I mentioned earlier about the snow on my own skylight. That's demonstrating that in a very clear, real world way to me as well. So, I feel like both of those common misconceptions, we've hit right on the head. Confidence and energy efficiency.

John: Right, with that snow on the roof, like you said, if your snow is immediately melting off of your skylight window, that just means that all that heat from your house is just going right through that window and melting that snow, and so the fact that all that snow is just able to stay right on the window and not melt means you're not losing that heat from inside the house.

Ryan: Yeah. A roof certainly has a certain insulating value, R-Value, and the skylight is not quite at the level where the roof is, but neither are regular windows compared to the walls that contain them either. But you get twice as much light per square foot from a skylight on a slope as you do from a vertical window, like a double hung or a casement.

So, usually when I'm talking to architects or design professionals, I'm explaining how skylights punch out of their weight class, if you want to think of that expression in that regard. Surprisingly energy efficient, even, because they're in a roof, they're a very small part of the roof in terms of square footage and they bring in twice the light per square foot of other windows as well. It's very possible, Brett, when you're replacing a skylight on any given house in New Hampshire, Massachusetts, or what have you, that window will be the most energy efficient window in that house.

Brett: I would tell you, Ryan, that I 100% agree with you. I guess every case is a little bit unique, but I would tell you certainly in 9 out of 10 cases where we're retrofitting, replacing, someone's older skylight or maybe even installing a brand new skylight, it's going to be newer than most of the windows in that home, if not all of them. And I would agree with you, it's probably going to be the most efficient opening in that space.

And to your point, Ryan as well, I was just thinking as you were expressing it, skylights today, this is not your grandpa's skylight. There's a lot of misconceptions that may have been true, or truer, once upon a time that are no longer the case because of, like you said, a couple of misconceptions that they're inefficient and that they all leak. Well, once upon time, I don't know if that was true, but it was more prevalent and you're absolutely right. VELUX skylights now, they're standing behind that with that no leak warranty and it stands up over time. And the efficiency, of course, that can just be measured by third parties as you said, and we can prove to people that, "Hey, this is very efficient."

So yeah, it's not your grandpa's skylight. They're really quite a joy to live with.

Factors in Ensuring a Successful Skylight Installation

John: Brett, while we're talking about installations, beyond the quality of the product from VELUX, what are some of the crucial factors in ensuring that a skylight is successfully installed in a roof, especially when you're working with the existing roof structure?

Brett: Sure. In general, I tend to think of skylights in two classifications. There's a new installation, so someone who does not have a skylight currently and chooses that they would like one, and that comes with some structural change. This isn't just re-roofing where someone's taking your old shingles off. They're actually cutting into the structure of your home's framing and doing this, so this bridges between just roofing and construction because you have to box that, you have to do finish work inside, all that stuff.

And then the other part is replacing an existing skylight, which is probably the more common situation. Most homes either get built with or don't get built with skylights. What are some of the most important things to be looking for there? Experience. The more skylights you and your crew, your company, have experience with, the more competent you're going to be in either of those categories, either replacing a skylight or installing a new skylight.

Not every company is actually built to support skylights, either. Any roofing company can go to their distributor and purchase a skylight. They all can do it. My question would be how often are you guys doing this? How often are you replacing skylights? Do you have a crew of team members who are certified by the manufacturer to replace skylights?

In our case, for instance, at Master Roofers, we're a five-star certified contractor by VELUX, so we've had to, in essence, prove to VELUX that we are experts in skylight replacement and in skylight installation.

So, the biggest things are coming down to experience with skylights and do you have team members with those right skill sets, which again crosses really into construction, in some cases, not simply, "Do you have a guy that's a roofer?", who -- not to demean that at all, that's a skill set in its own, it's just different than installing skylights. Any thoughts on that, Ryan? You work with a lot of folks in this space.

Ryan: Yeah, you would definitely want to partner with a company that has seen it all, I guess, for lack of a better term. There are certainly skylights that are VELUX now and they're 25 years old and you're replacing with the exact same size, and those are a little bit more pedestrian, whatever you want to call it. But there are less optimum applications. Sometimes you're close to a valley or close to a ridge.

Sometimes you're replacing a competitor from the eighties that is not around anymore, of which there are many. Now we have to navigate and flow like water to an efficient solution, and you need to have all of the solutions that VELUX offers at your fingertips. A different installation method, different sizes than you're accustomed to, different flashing kits sometimes. You have different roofing, particularly in New England, you can have metal roofing. That is another not-insurmountable challenge, but it's just a different installation that experience pays off with.

It's definitely always an advantage to, as I say, partner with an installer, an applicator that has seen it all before, for sure. Absolutely.

The Skylight Installer Certification Process

John: Can you give us a little insight into what that certification process is in terms of certifying a company like Master Roofers to install VELUX skylights?

Ryan: To be a specialist, which is what Master Roofers is, you need to go through a physical roof section, installation training on a variety of products, ganging our products together, which is a bit of a different and more detailed installation. Installing roof windows, installing sun tunnels, installing shades. I think even at that time it was re-glazing skylights probably as well, so it's a quite wide-ranging installation training.

These days, you have to know about how to register electronic components, remote controls to windows, so that you can operate your shades. Comfort level with our active system so that you can run our products off of your phone with our app or our other touchscreen remotes, so it's even more wide-ranging and stringent than it even would've been in the past, and a significant part of that is also understanding, as I mentioned, all of those solutions.

You never know what you're going to encounter based on the roofing material, based on the application and the functionality that the homeowner wants from their skylight now as opposed to what the homeowner wanted 30 years ago. So, how to best explain the correct installation method and the correct method of control for the skylight for each homeowner. A lot of the training is sales related in that regard so that you can understand your solutions, provide that for a homeowner.

Brett: Ryan brings up a good point with the sales related, and when we talk about differentiators, at least our approach at Master Roofers, our salespeople are very well-trained and they're going in... It all starts with a good design. Yeah, you need experience to go execute it and do it right and we literally have "master roofers" on staff. We have folks who work on metal, slate, copper, asphalt shingle, everything in between.

I'm thinking of one particular gentleman, Pat Shea. Pat's been doing this for 40 plus years. He went to a roofing trade school and Pat literally is a man who can do anything. But what Pat needs, the real beginning point, is from visiting with the homeowner and aligning on what's possible and what their goals are, starting off with a great design. Otherwise, we're putting Pat in a position where he has to maybe pull out a miracle that he may not have. And our relationship with VELUX goes back, gosh, what Ryan? Is it two decades or more?

Ryan: Well, almost certainly the skylights have been used for many, many, many decades, but as a certified installer... Geez, I would say probably 12 years maybe? I would guess.

Brett: Yeah, I was going to say…long time. A long time.

Ryan: That is a lot of skylights. Yes.

Brett: That is a lot of skylights. And one interesting thing is that most roofers avoid wanting to cut holes or mess with holes and roofs. Their goal is, if it's not leaking, don't touch it and don't cut a hole.

We're a little unique. We like it, and that's just because we're so comfortable in our skillset and with the product that we use, that cutting in a new skylight sounds great to us, doesn't scare us. Want to replace the skylight? Super. We love doing that. We love helping people like that.

Whereas I think that you'll find with some other roofers, there's some apprehension. They're pretty happy sometimes to say, "Oh, what? We're re-roofing your home. We're taking a 30-year-old roof off and you've got a 30-year-old skylight? Oh, it's not leaking. Go ahead and leave it."

Think about it. Now you have a 30-year-old window in your house with your brand new roof. What's the likelihood that's going to work out well? And it's because they're not comfortable with their skillset, whereas we embrace that. We enjoy that.

Choosing a Skylight Contractor

John: Brett, what else is involved in choosing a good contractor for installing skylights? You mentioned experience, which you obviously have, and what about licensing and insurance, things like that?

Brett: Sure, absolutely. Yeah, you should absolutely be seeking someone who's a certified home improvement contractor, and can prove that on paper. They should provide you with copies of all. So that's essentially your licensing in that space. You should also be getting copies of their certificates of liability, etc. Any reputable contractor is going to be able to provide those to you in real time and make you a named insured of their insurance and of showing that they're a certified home improvement contractor, which of course, the state regulates that.

Another great resource, as well, is the Better Business Bureau and things like Google. That's one of the neat things of the modern era is that if someone's out there doing a bad job, it's going to catch up with them. You can't control what people say about your business on Google. They can just do it. And we all know that occasionally there's some folks who give poor reviews, because they're whatever, they're just having a bad day, but if you see a company with a lot of reviews and they're overwhelmingly good, that's a good sign from the field as well.

But the three biggest things I would look for, absolutely insurance, absolutely that they're a certified home improvement contractor, and then the next thing I would actually look at is their longevity.

Unfortunately, there's a lot of folks in the roofing space who are around for a few years and then they disappear. There's a lot of folks in the roofing space who decide to, "Hey, I'm a roofer. I worked for someone else. I'm going to go out on my own." And they don't do things like get proper insurance or they, "Oh, I'm supposed to pull a permit in your municipality for this? We won't pull a permit. I'll save you some money." They're probably not trying to save you money. They probably don't have proper licensing to be doing that.

So yeah, absolutely seek people who have that longevity, can provide you with proof of insurance, can provide you with proof of licensing. And you're also going to find that they're aligned with quality companies, that they're going to be aligned with companies like VELUX where we have their certifications. In roofing, where we're a master elite roofer with GAF. That comes with very similar needs to being certified with VELUX, and that'll put you on the right track to finding someone that you can trust to be your homes partner.

Skylight Project Timeline

John: Right. And then Brett, what else is involved in the project timeline? You mentioned it starts with the sales and the design of the project. What happens after that?

Brett: Sure. Great question. The initial sales call is going to align with our skylight expert about what you're trying to achieve. So, we do that. We actually do full measure calls. We actually get up on the roof, so whether it's a replacement or it's a new installation, we're getting up on the roof doing a physical inspection in most cases, too, depending on the design of the home, if there's an attic that needs to be addressed, some sort of space that needs to be addressed for getting in there. We're doing that on what we call our measure call. The key components of that are aligning with the customer's expectations and then the second of all, accurate measurements, because again, remember this is a construction project in some cases, so where do roof rafters lay? To Ryan's point earlier, where are valleys, etc.?

Once we've designed it, presented the solution to the customer, they choose to accept it, the next part is ordering skylights, so ordering the windows to go in the roof. There are some standard sizes that we can adapt with. There are custom sizes that Velux can actually make for us. So, depending on the need, the lead time -- in most standard cases, roughly a two-week lead time on us getting the material in and getting it into our schedule.

Once that material is successfully available to us, so it's been distributed to us through our distributor by VELUX, then we're going to align with you on what time works for that. Obviously we're going to be putting holes in your roof or we're going to be taking what's not a hole and opening it up and making it a hole. We have to work around weather.

So, I guess what I would tell you is, from the time that you sign that agreement after the measure call to the time that you're actually executing, replacing, or installing your skylights is going to be in the two-week to four-week time range for most cases, depending on weather, depending on if you're getting a custom skylight, those can make it longer of course.

Common Questions and Concerns About Skylights

John: Okay. And this can be a question for either one or both of you. What are some of the most frequent questions or concerns that you encounter from homeowners regarding skylights?

Ryan: Sure. Well, I would say from my part, there are probably three different common questions.

Identifying Skylights

The first would be people want help identifying. They have an old VELUX skylight or an old skylight of another manufacturer, and they need to identify what is the current comparable VELUX to be able to go into that opening gracefully, either on its own as a separate project or as a part of the roof. Or just recommendations, if it's a new skylight, for size, they want to daylight an area.

I'll give you an example with COVID, a lot more people were in their offices and all of a sudden they realized that their home office wasn't especially pleasant. It didn't have as much natural daylight. So, we would get a lot of calls from people with basically a Teams meeting showing us their space and asking us how many skylights it would take to be able to have a pleasant amount of natural daylight in their area. And there's a lot that goes into that with framing, and even the color of the walls can help make it more reflective or less.

Tax Credits

But probably the most common question that I get these days is related to tax credits. Solar-powered motorized skylights run off a remote. They close if it rains so that you can use them spring, summer, and fall at will with confidence. But probably the most important thing about them is they're eligible for 30% uncapped federal tax credit on the entire project, installing those skylights. Everything that you pay because you decided to put this skylight in, you can take a 30% federal income tax if it is a home in the United States and if you do pay federal income tax, if you have a federal tax liability. So, if you have a number of skylights, you can see where that would add up to a significant amount of money.

The federal government is helping you to replace old skylights when you do your roof, if you want to think of it that way. It makes all the difference in the world in the calculus of what you do when you're replacing a skylight. And we did that for a few years and we realized that if we, the manufacturer, pre-install a solar-powered shade into any type of skylight, even a fixed skylight or a manually operated skylight, it imbues that skylight as well as a solar electric property and you can take a 30% federal tax credit on the entire project related to the installation of it.

So, really almost all of our skylights that we sell now, unless they're custom sized, you have it within your power to take a 30% tax credit on the work that Brett and his team are doing, and that is a powerful tool to help people with their project.

John: Yeah, that's an important consideration. Absolutely.

Brett: I think for us, a lot of the questions we receive, especially during the sales process, go back to something we chatted about earlier that, hey, this isn't your grandpa's skylight anymore.

A lot of folks maybe have an existing skylight and for whatever reason, it's time to move on, replace it. A lot of what Ryan just spoke about, about solar-powered shades, about being able to vent it without having a giant pole that you're cranking up and that sort of thing, about the fact that it will close automatically when it senses rain and seal up your house. Most people aren't aware of that, so we like to take time and educate in the process because people love the light of skylights. They love, in many cases, the ability to vent and get fresh air. Most of them don't realize how much more convenient it is, maybe more now than it ever was before, certainly.

And even doing things like home automations. Ryan mentioned the app and then there's some other stuff that's associated with it. You can set it up so shades are opening and closing automatically on preset times and same thing with venting your home, having these open and close. And for us, I guess, maybe a lot of the most gratifying part is educating people to... In addition to the light that skylights provide, how easy they are to live with now with these modernizations that have occurred to them over time, and the fact that you're not going to have to worry about this thing leaking. The product is going to be leak proof. And then when you work with a quality contractor, they're going to do a great job and you're not going to have issues there. So, it's not going to leak at your roof either.

John: Right. Speaking of quality contractors, do you have any cautionary tales, Brett, things that you've seen where maybe a homeowner got a skylight installed by a different contractor and now they're having problems? What have you seen?

Brett: Sure. Unfortunately, we meet a lot of people in that situation. "Hey, I'm getting leaks around my skylight," that sort of thing. "I had some guy do it. He doesn't call me back anymore," And that sort of thing. So we do get that. We don't like meeting people in those circumstances, but what we do like is the fact that we can help them.

So, again, it goes back to working with someone who works with and who installs skylights all the time and is really competent and confident in their skills.

A lot of times what we do is we get up there,and the skylight itself may not be leaking, but it's leaking around the skylight. We do what's called a water test, which is exactly what it sounds like. We're up there with a hose figuring out exactly where the permeation is and we're helping then. We usually have to remove shingles and redo flashing and then make it so that this is truly watertight around that opening.

Occasionally, we may find the skylights themselves, not if they're working with a VELUX skylight, as long as it was properly installed, the skylight itself is not going to leak. We're pretty confident of that. It's usually all the other work around the skylight that is where the risk is, if you will.

So yeah. A lot of folks go, "Wow, I was able to save. I worked with Joe in a truck and I was able to save 10% over that certified company." Well, some days you get what you pay for, and I'm not trying to dump on any other contractors, whatsoever, but I guess my cautionary tale would always be, work with that certified contractor, work with someone that the manufacturer recommends, because they have standards in place that help ensure that you're going to get a quality installation by a competent company that will stand behind that work as well once they leave.

Collaboration Between Skylight Manufacturers and Roofing Companies

John: And then finally, guys, what collaborative efforts between manufacturers and roofing companies and roofing installers can be taken to ensure a seamless and positive experience for homeowners who are choosing skylights?

Ryan: Well, we do ask for regular training to keep folks up to date so that you have the right…At any given application, you have the right solution at your fingertips if you're a salesperson for a certified company. So you know what's available, you know what the best way to approach it is, if they want it venting, if they want it fixed, know the best way to approach that. You're conversant with the tax credit information that I mentioned earlier.

One thing that's unique about this area is that the majority of skylights are venting. Most skylights are venting around here in this part of New England and so people are usually trying to evaluate the best way to do that. What's the best experience? And if you don't understand the tax credit in its totality and believe that you're going to be able to achieve that when you do your taxes, then you might wind up with a suboptimal result, I think. Definitely ongoing education and touch points.

Also, to me, a good roofer knows when to bring me in as the rep, which I go out and look at stuff, or maybe it's someone from another part of the country. They should have access to their VELUX rep. We want these things going smoothly. We want people putting in the correct skylights, enjoying them, and when they are working for them and they're using them on a day in and day out basis, then someday when they build another home, they will put more skylights in presumably. And that's the best result for VELUX for sure.

Brett: Yeah, absolutely. And ourselves, being the roofer integrator, if you want to think of it, that's a lot of our job is to work with manufacturers, both shingle manufacturers, work with construction consultants, work with folks like Ryan at VELUX, and make sure that we're staying fully trained and that, number two, we're using the best and optimal products and methods for all those things that come together. Because there's a skylight there that's being built into construction that now has shingles around it. So, at the end of the day, they all converge, and that's our job is to stay current and fluent with each of those facets of the game to give the customer the best experience.

John: All right, well that's all really great information, Brett. Thanks again for speaking with me today.

Brett: Oh, thank you so much. I appreciate you having me.

John: And Ryan Sturgis from VELUX Skylights. Thanks for joining us as well.

Ryan: You bet. Glad to be here.

Research different types of windows.

Before looking for a window screen replacement service, get familiarized with the various types of windows that are available on the market. Research the pros and cons of each type and decide which works best for you. A few common styles include casement windows, bay windows, double-hung windows and picture windows.

Next, consider the room orientation, climate and style of your space. This will simplify things and enable you to communicate your needs and preferences to potential window installation technicians.

Ask for references.

One of the best ways to understand the workmanship, professionalism and customer service of a company is to ask for references from the window pane replacement service and call them to ask about their experiences. Don’t forget to read online testimonials.

Check for licensing and insurance.

Before you make a decision to hire a window screen repair technician, it's crucial to ensure they’re properly licensed and insured. This will ensure they take responsibility if any damages or accidents occur during the velux skylights installation process.

Try to get quotes from multiple companies.

Once you have a list of all the potential window seal repair services, try to get quotes from each of them. Make sure each quote contains detailed information about expenses, labor, the price of the repair depending upon the damage and additional services (if any). A reminder: The cheapest quote may not always be the best option. Consider the company’s reputation, the quality of the work and the materials being used.

Always look for an experienced and professional team.

An experienced professional will have the knowledge and expertise to perform the window installation and replacement work so it lasts for decades.

Consider warranty and after-sales service.

A trustworthy technician should be available to answer any questions or address any concerns that you may have after the window insulation process. Ask about the length of the warranty and what it covers.

Moving on, let’s quickly review some of the pointers for choosing new windows for window replacement.

Select a vinyl window frame instead of wood for a low-maintenance window. Consider a window with woodgrain laminate over vinyl if wood windows are your preference.

Think about features of your home like lighting fixtures and cabinet hardware. Look for windows that can match those features, such as oil-rubbed bronze, brass or brushed nickel.

Choose a tilt-in window if you want to easily clean the glass from the inside of your home.

Choose windows made by manufacturers that offer warranties that cover the insulating glass units of the window, including the frame and sash.

Consider ordering windows with laminated safety glass if you live around active children. Two panes of glass are glued to a durable plastic interlayer. If a window is hit by a stray ball, the glass will shatter but broken pieces will remain adhered to the interlayer, preventing glass fallout inside the home.

If you want to reduce the noise of traffic, railroads and overhead planes, laminated or impact-resistant glass is the best choice.

Not every window requires a grid. For a window overlooking a mountain or a lake, forego the grid to preserve the view.

To choose the right window repair technician and get the most value for your money, consider implementing the professional tips mentioned in this article.

Budgeting is a discipline that’s not often met with excitement. Many assume that budgeting is something reserved for companies or, say, freelance workers. However, personal budget software is just as important as corporate one — it’s a fundamental understanding of where money is coming and going.

You may consider it to be boring, tiring, time-consuming, or difficult, but managing your finances well can help you achieve goals and stave off the stress of a rainy day. Thankfully, there are tools and apps on Mac which can help you get on top of budgeting, no matter how experienced you are.

Why Should I Use Budget Tracking Software?

If you haven’t done a budget before, you should start now. You never know when you might need a particular sum of money to solve an issue, meet a goal, or take advantage of a sudden opportunity.

Budget programs help you reduce the stress and uncertainty that comes with not knowing where you stand financially. If you don’t have a home budget software, you might be tracking towards a situation where you run out of money, without even knowing it. If you do have a budget, then you’ll have a documented plan of action to improve your situation.

Importantly, you don’t need any qualifications to do a budget, nor do you need to be good with numbers. Take advantage of the best budget software for Mac to help you take control of your finances without the hassle. Budgeting tools come in many shapes and sizes, so selecting the right one for you depends on personal preference and previous experience with managing money.

Handy tips for budgeting tools

If you’re ready to start your budget, it’s best to consider a strategic approach to ensure maximum utility. Too often, budgets sit collecting dust after being created, and sometimes the act of creating a budget could feel like enough to satisfy financial concerns — it’s not. Here are some tips for making the most out of your budget.

First of all, definitely use an app to help you manage a budget. App developers invest a lot of time and money into figuring out how their software can make your life easier and better, so rather than trying to understand all the nuances for yourself, let a dedicated app do it for you. There’s even some free budget software around, so you have very few excuses not to try!

All in all Adobe Audition CC 2019 for Mac OS X is an impressive application which can be used for creating songs and radio spots and for enhancing the recordings. You can also download Scaler VST for Mac. Features of Adobe Audition CC 2019 for Macbook. Audition adobe for mac os x. Adobe audition for mac os x for music free download. Cmus - C.

Adobe Audition CS6 software offers high-performance, intuitive tools for audio editing, mixing, restoration, and effects. Powerful new features such as real-time clip stretching, automatic speech.

If you run a business (or freelance on a side), a little bit of work each week means end of year taxes are a breeze. It’s not about doing a marathon of work in a few days, but making a habit to consistently do a little bit here and there. Try aiming for 10 minutes every few days. The best tax preparation software will also have reminders and notifications to help you achieve this goal.

It might sound contradictory, but budgeting isn’t always about getting the numbers 100% accurate. When it comes to tax preparation software — sure. But budgeting is mostly about understanding where your money is being spent and then using that information to make more informed decisions going forward. Therefore, make sure you categorize your transactions so that it’s easier to spot those minutiae differences and trends. The best finance apps should do this for you automatically.

In summary, you want to ensure you take advantage of the online budgeting tools available to you, aim to update your records frequently, and focus on categorization over accuracy.

Features of good personal budget software

The best personal budget software for Mac is easier to pin down when you know exactly what you’re looking for. Not all apps are the same — they vary by function and pricing. Generally speaking, there are a few key features you want to see in your budget software for Mac:

It should be simple and easy to add new records or transactions

Importing bank and credit card statements should be possible

Automatically synchronizing statements will take the edge off your manual inputting

Useful dashboards or visuals will help you understand your situation at a glance

You should be able to categorize your transactions into groups

Out of those five key points, the ability to import is often the most essential. Importing saves you the hassle of adding each transaction into the money management software line-by-line, which adds up to a lot of time. It’s hard enough already to schedule frequent updates to your budget, so if you can remove the largest friction point of manual entry, then you’re in a good place.

The best budget software for Mac comparison

When it comes to programs to help budget money, there are countless options. It’s easy to get lost diving deep into each budget software review, but here are some of the best available, ranging from beautifully basic to powerfully advanced.

You’ve probably heard of Quicken, given that the name has been around since the early 80s. Even then, it was known as one of the best tax software companies around. That says something about the strong product, which carries all of the basic functions you’ll need to manage your budget well.

Right away though, you might notice that the interface has become somewhat dated in comparison to the newer contenders out there. But one of Quicken’s praised features is the ability to download bank statements and have the records automatically categorized, which can drastically reduce the time it takes to input your information, so you can spend more time making sense of it. Sadly, the Mac version is somewhat limited when it comes to advanced features, unless you splash out for the Home and Business edition.

It is intended to promote the use of daylight and to aid professionals by predicting and documenting daylight levels and appearance of a.

MoneyDance is very similar to Quicken in terms of its basic features, including the ability to create a budget with notifications for bills and invoices. It also allows you to make your own charts and graphs to monitor spending habits over time, which can be seen on the homepage for a quick glance of your activity. Out-of-the-box integrations with online banking services also make it easy to send payments.

Unlike Quicken, Moneydance has some more advanced features including an investment monitor, which tracks your investments and their fluctuations — a useful addition, although best for the intermediate to advanced user. The app also has a developer API system in place to allow extended functions, mostly good for power users. Importantly, security is not an issue, as Moneydance utilizes end-to-end encryption for your data to give you that extra peace of mind.

You Need A Budget, also known as YNAB, is budget tracking software that runs on both Windows and Mac via web — saving automatically to the cloud, which is a bonus for multi-platform users. It also features native apps for iOS and Android, so you can literally tackle your budget from anywhere.

The app itself follows a simple design language, which is perfect for beginners, but if you find yourself needing help you can sign up for a personal instructor. YNAB doesn’t let you slack at all, and if you start to stray from your budget, the app will raise a red flag through it’s built-in Accountability Partner.

Although YNAB doesn’t support the ability to download and automatically categorize records from bank statements, it could be argued that entering them manually helps the user pay more attention to where their spending is going. Still, it’s a more time-consuming process that might be problematic for users processing hundreds or more records each month.

MoneyWiz stays true to its name — a comprehensive budget software and investment tracker that’s packed full with over 400 useful features. View your financial situation quickly by browsing accounts, groups, or searching for individual records. Speaking of records, you can enter them manually or have them automatically sync with leading banks, cryptocurrency exchanges, and financial services for an accurate real-time understanding of your accounts.

With all of this data in hand, MoneyWiz can prepare and export over 50 reports to help you gain deeper insights into your finances. Your data could be accessed from its cloud-based app or straight from the native software for Mac. All in all, MoneyWiz is extremely powerful: accessible for beginners and interesting for the most advanced users.

Receipts is yet another money management software for Mac, and is specifically well-known for its clever handling of invoicing. Using Optical Character Recognition (OCR) technology, Receipts automatically reads and translates important information about your bills, such as amount, date, currency, and more (even if the text is in another language).

Besides, Receipts can issue payments for invoices directly using third-party providers, such as iFinance and BankX. The OCR technology alone makes it a strong contender against other more simple online budgeting tools. Not least, Mac users will be glad to see how this application was designed to look and feel like a macOS product. Using a familiar user interface could make life a little easier after all.

Between the five options above, you have a strong starting point for your budgeting tools depending on your experience. Remember that importing is one of the key features to look for in budget programs. Still, in order to find the best fit you might need to try a couple of different options.

Thankfully, both MoneyWiz and Receipts have a free 7-day trial that you can take advantage of by heading over to Setapp, an app subscription service for Mac that gives you access to over 150 macOS apps, including all the necessary budget tools. Getting MoneyWiz and Receipts at once? You won’t be disappointed.

Setapp lives on Mac and iOS. Please come back from another device.

Meantime, prepare for all the awesome things you can do with Setapp.

Historically, Mac accounting software has been treated as a second-class citizen by the major accounting vendors (where they can be bothered with Mac solutions at all). MoneyWorks is the standout—designed on a Mac for a Mac (but totally cross-platform), it leverages the power and ease-of-use of your Mac and seamlessly integrates with other Mac apps.

MoneyWorks is widely regarded as the being the best (and most cost-effective) Mac accounting software available, scoring top (with a four-and-a-half mouse rating) in a recent MacWorld review.

“.. a product that meets or exceeds all the usual Mac native standards” —Carol, Virgin Islands

Features

Intuitive and easy

MoneyWorks was designed on a Mac and for a Mac, and adheres to the Mac user interface guidelines.

Native interface

MoneyWorks runs fully natively on your Mac. This is not a Java app or browser based, with all the trade-offs required. Instead you experience the full power of a modern Cocoa app.

Integrated

Money Works For Mac Computers

MoneyWorks integrates seamlessly with your other Mac software and services, including Mail, Contacts/Address Book and Enhanced Dictation. And with built in AppleEvent support you can streamline your workflow using Automator or AppleScript.

Money Works For Mac

Best of breed

MoneyWorks also integrates with other best of breed Mac business solutions, including Daylite, FileMaker, Numbers and MS Office.

Fully featured

MoneyWorks has all the features you would expect in a modern accounting system, plus a lot of power features that will make life easier—whether it is something simple like free-text searching, or advanced features like the built in scripting language for enhanced customisation.

Cross-platform

MoneyWorks also works on Windows, which is essential as it is the preferred platform of most accountants (who do tend to be a bit conservative!). So your Windows accountant (or Windows users in your own organisation) can access and update your MoneyWorks file, without messy file conversions.

In February 1992 MoneyWorks for Mac shipped on a single floppy disk.

Since then MoneyWorks has had decades of continuous improvement and enhancement.

MoneyWorks in 1992, when Windows 95 was but a twinkle in Bill Gates' eye.

“ I have been a Mac user since the original one was shipped to me on day 4 of its release. I have never used a PC. I have used 100s of programs, and migrated through many versions of most of them, some Mac native, some not. I HAVE NEVER, NEVER EVER found a company as responsive and helpful as you guys, with a product that meets or exceeds all the usual Mac native standards (never mind the awful Windows-to-Mac kluges). ”

TURN YOUR EMPTY ATTIC INTO NEW LIVING SPACE WITH SOME SMART MOVES

When your family outgrows your home’s available space, moving to bigger digs isn’t always the best option. Maybe you really love your current home. Perhaps you can’t find a bigger home in your price range in the area of your choice. Whatever your reason for staying in place, expanding the home you already have can be a cost-effective option when your family needs more room.

Converting an unused attic into usable living area is a reliable, cost-effective way to gain more space in a home. It’s also a good investment; when you add an attic bedroom, you can expect to recoup about 77 percent of the construction cost when you resell the house, according to Remodeling Magazine’s Cost vs. Value Report.

1. Rely on natural light for beauty, visibility and cost savings.

Attics don’t usually have many windows, and adding them can be difficult if the ceiling is sloped. Adding dormers – a typical solution – can be costly and time-consuming, and eat up wall space that is often at a premium in attics.

Skylights or roof windows can be a better, more cost-effective way to bring natural light and fresh air into an attic. Installation is faster and cheaper than adding dormers, and they work well on slanted ceilings. Energy Star-qualified, solar-powered, fresh-air skylights, like those from Velux America make it easy and affordable to bring natural light and fresh air into an attic space.

Add solar-powered blinds in designer colors and patterns, and the skylight becomes an even more valuable piece of the room’s overall decor. Solar-powered skylights close automatically in case of rain. They, and the blinds, are operated by programmable remote control, making it easy to adjust the amount of sunlight that enters the space. Both products, plus the installation costs, are eligible for a 30 percent federal tax credit to the homeowner. Learn more at www.whyskylights.com.

2. Pay close attention to insulation.

In any home, the attic is often the hottest spot in the summer and the coldest in the winter. The amount and quality of insulation in the attic directly affects the comfort level in the space – and the overall energy efficiency of your home.

Have an insulation pro evaluate the insulation in your home’s attic before you begin planning your conversion. You may need to add insulation or even replace older, inefficient types – a move well worth the investment since insulation is so important to your home’s overall comfort and energy efficiency. Many insulation pros will recommend spray insulation for attics because it goes easily between existing joists. Plus, it can create a tight air barrier without losing the inches of space required for thick fiberglass batt insulation.

3. Get smart about plumbing.

If your attic conversion will incorporate a bathroom, good for you! Bathroom additions return more than 56 percent of your initial investment when you resell, according to the Cost vs. Value Report.

If pipes are already present in your attic, adding a bathroom can be simple. If no plumbing exists, consider cost-effective alternatives that will have less impact on the space, like up-flush plumbing. Because it fits into the kind of tight spaces that often occur in attics, up-flush plumbing can be an easier, cheaper way to plumb a sink, toilet or shower stall in an attic space.

Converting an unused attic into living area can be a great way to expand your space without moving. Plus, when you finally are ready to move one day, that attic renovation may end up paying for itself by boosting the sale price of your home.

1. Sunoptics SUN R2030- Best Skylights for Homes

Sale

Sunoptics SUN R2030

Prismatic lenses provide the maximum amount of light with 100 percent diffusion while eliminating hot spots and glare

Double hip-shaped lens design collects daylight at lower sun levels when compared to flat lenses

Triple glazed, impact-modified acrylic prismatic lenses provide additional thermal protection

Check Price

Sunoptics is a subsidiary of Acuity Brands, a company that offers powered lighting systems. Though their specialty isn’t skylights, the Sunoptics SUN R2030 tops our list for brightness, durability, and installation. The good thing is it is not as expensive as other skylights. And you get many variants for both fixed as well as ventilated options.

The best feature of the skylight is the window. Unlike many other skylights, it made of plastic acrylic instead of glass. And the plastic for the skylight is made in house by the Sunoptics rather than importing from some manufacturer. Plastics window has prismatic lenses to maximize the light with diffusion and eliminating glare. It also triple glazed to provide thermal protection. The window is held by the powdered coated bronze aluminium.

We tested both the not vent as well as the manual vent option. During the test, we installed it for one of our rooms. Sunoptics offered nice bright white light. It uses diffusion to improve the light, so do not expect to see through the window unless you use manual vent variant. With manual vent, it is easy to open and close with the help of telescope operator pole.

Uses prism lenses in design to maximize light diffusion.

The window frame is strong and well-sealed.

Inexpensive compared to other skylights.

The window is triple glazed.

Available in both no vent and manual vent options.

Things We Don't Like

You cannot see through the window.

Flashings kits are available separately.

The window is made of plastic.

Bottom Line

Probably the Sunoptics SUN R2030 provide the highest amount of brightness without glare. As you can see through, it is among the best skylights for bathrooms.

Natural Light Energy Systems

13" model lluminates up to 300 sq. ft.

Equivalent of up to 500 watts. Domed Prismatic Interior Diffuser.

Fits pitched fiberglass-asphalt shingle roof types - comes with 4 feet of tubing.

Check Price

When we began our research, we found out that Natural Light is the biggest brand of skylights. Its Solar Skylight Kit is right up there with Sunoptics. And it is the best tubular skylight we tested. The unit is well tested by the manufacturer and has ENERGY STAR® certification which rare among skylights. The unit available for both commercial as well as residential buildings but there not much difference except size.

During our test began by installing it. Looking at its tubular design is easy to install. We asked experienced technicians to install the skylight, and it took them only two hours compared to another skylight. The other thing we noticed that the amount of light for room 14’ x 12’ was much brighter and soothing. We also checked it the skylight affected the temperature of the room. Some skylights do increase the temperature of the room because of the greenhouse effect, but it wasn’t the case with this unit.

The standard unit sold on the Amazon has 4’ tube which should be enough for most of the users. However, if you want a skylight on a roof that is at different angles, you may require extra tubing. The dome design of the window has a prismatic design for light diffusion. The unit is tested for hurricanes, and it is highly durable. To go with the durability, Natural Lights offers 25 years of warranty on the unit.

Things We Like

Provide bright white light.

It doesn’t affect the temperature inside the room.

They are tested for a hurricane.

Energy Star qualified.

25 years of warranty.

Things We Don't Like

Not easy to install on flat roofs.

Buying premium skylights could be expensive if you want to install several skylights throughout your house. If getting more light into the room is your main goal, a skylight light like ICON RV Skylight could be a great option. The price range of the skylight is much less than the last two skylights we have mentioned in the list. You can buy several of this skylights with the price of one Sunoptics or Natural Energy System skylight.

Yes, you will have to compromise on the few of best features that you get with the premium skylights, but the main goal of getting the light into the room is achievable. We installed on the unit in a test room of 14’ x 12’. The light in the room was well improved. However, we found temperature was an issue. If you live in a region that is known for hot weather, the skylight will increase the temperature of the room. And if you live in a northern region were climate is much cooler, installing this skylight adds to your comfort.

Installation is straightforward, but we found that at the edges it is not well sealed. We suggest you get a rubber gasket and a solution to seal it properly. Skylight is completely one piece made out of impact resistant polycarbonate. It may not be as aesthetic as glass but doesn’t look that bad.

Things We Like

Inexpensive compared to other skylights.

Easy to install.

Allows maximum light into the room.

Low emission, heat reflecting double-glazed tempered glass window lets in the light, but not the heat

Check Price

If you want skylight that can be opened to enjoy the view and cool breeze, you got to have FAKRO FWU-L 69157 Egress Roof Window. It probably among the best-vented skylights with glass. The Fakro is a two-decade-old company dealing in skylights, roof windows, etc. The company has made its name for innovation and great services. Their market share for the company in sales of the skylight is 15%.

This unit is a premium unit and by far has the highest price on our list. But the price justified as the skylight not only of the highest quality but meets all the safety standards. It is available in two sizes—24” X 38” and 24” x 46”. Compared to other lights, it opens fully up to 90 degrees. And when closed the double glazed tempered glass allows natural light into the room. The frame that holds the glass is made of pine wood that is pressure treated.

When we were testing, we realized that the skylight is more suited for the roofs with the angle between 15 to 55 degrees. It is not the best skylights for flat roofs. Also if the ceiling has too much height, the user won’t be able to open the window as the extension rode is small.

Things We Like

It allows an ample amount of light.

It can be used as an emergency exit.

It is made out of heat treated pine wood.

Energy Star certified.

Opens fully up to 90 degrees.

Things We Don't Like

Check Price

Velux is one of the oldest brands of skylights. It has 75 years of experience and total market share of the company for more than 50%. The VELUX FCM 2246 0005 is fairly simple skylight suitable for almost any kind of roof. However, it is not ventilated and fixed type. The price is much more reasonable compared to other quality skylights.

If you dream of watching stars while lying on your bed, this transparent skylight can make it possible for you. The installation is easy, and tempered glass is well surrounded by thick flashing. We tested it for water leakage. It is fairly tight and doesn’t allow even an ounce of water. However, the installation has to be impeccable. The quality of light impressed us. It is natural light what most users want from a good skylight.

The skylight is Energy Certified. But the thing is flashing is not included in the package. If you consider the cost of the skylight and the flashing, the price goes up. However, it is still lower than buying a premium skylight with flashing like any of the Fakro skylights.

Things We Like

Best see through skylight for flat roofs.

It has glazed and tempered glass.

Leakage-proof if installed perfectly.

It allows natural light.

Doesn’t affect the temperature of the room.

Sun Tunnel Tubular Skylight

Low Profile Flashing for pitched Fiberglass-Asphalt Shingle of Shake type roofs.

Installs in as little 2-hours in most applications.

Check Price

The Sun Tunnel Tubular Skylight is made by Velux. It is a unique skylight. We have reviewed many tubular skylights, and we must admit because of its unique design, it gained a place in our list. It is almost similar to Natural Light Energy Systems Solar Skylight Kit but with a tune that can be bent. Also, Velux offers a huge amount of accessories to make it more versatile.

The biggest positive of using Sun Tunnel Tubular Skylight is that it allows you to install at most places. The flexible tunnel it uses is made of a series of aluminium rings. This flexibility allows you to maneuver the tunnel around different kinds of trusses and rafters. Hence, it eliminates the need for buying separate elbow for the tunnel with other tubular skylights.

The dome of the skylight uses light diffusion for improving the light inside the room. However, it is not of the high quality that we get with Natural Light Energy. This is the big reason it lost some numbers on quality of light. If we see the light on the spectrum, it is toward the blue color.

Things We Like

Flexible tube provides the best angle for light diffusion.

Easy to install.

Difference types of flashings are available.

Three types of diffusers can be used.

Things We Don't Like

Expensive compared to most of the tubular skylights.

Bottom Line

Check Price

When it comes to the skylight, durability is the most important factor. Among all the skylights, the most durable skylight we tested was SIG Skylights FMB. Even its manufacturer SIG Skylights backs its durability by offering a lifetime warranty on the product. The skylight has a heavy aluminium welded frame with tempered glass. The aluminium is powdered coated, hence adding more life to the skylight.

When we were testing skylights for flat roofs, few of them require extra flashing. Mind you buying flashing in addition to skylights always increases the cost. But with this skylight, we were able to install the 100% leakage proof skylight without adding extra flashing. Yes, you will require good quality adhesive, and sealant but any experienced expert of skylight will be able to help you with that.

The double pane tempered glass allows natural light without hindrance. We also measured the temperature of the room before and after the installation of the skylight. It hardly has any effect on the temperature of the room. However, if the skylight is facing the sun directly, the area receiving the light is a little warmer.

Things We Like

Very easy to install.

Highly durable.

It uses replaceable glass.

Does not fade with time.

Things We Don't Like

It was the most expensive skylight we have tested.

No vent.

Bottom Line

If you are more concerned about the durability of glass or worried about the glass fading, SIG Skylights FMB is your best solution.

Buyer’s Guide- What to Consider While Buying the Skylight?

What to Consider While Buying the Skylight

Installing the right skylight reduces energy consumption to a great extent. It helps to warm the room in winter, and with proper ventilation, it helps cool the room in summer. But it’s important to choose the right skylight. There are several factors that you have to consider while buying the skylight. Here we will discuss them in detail so that you have proper knowledge that helps identify the right kind of skylight for your home or office.

1. Type

There are three types of skylights—fixed, ventilated, and tubular. Each has its advantage and disadvantage. Depending on the location of installation and the main purpose behind using the skylight determines which type of skylight is suitable for you.

FixedVenitlatedTubular

As you can guess from the name, it is a skylight with a fixed window. The window cannot be opened for ventilation. It only allows light to pass through either through diffusing prismatic glass or tempered glass. These are usually well suited for flat roofs and the houses located in colder regions. The Sunoptics SUN R2030 is one of the best fixed skylight.

The ventilated skylights can be opened with the help of extension rode mechanism to allow air into the room. These type of skylights are suited for property located in hot regions. The window uses both kind of material plastic as well as glass. But the best skylight with ventilation uses glazed windows for maximum light and for maintaining the temperate inside the room. The best ventilated skylight on our list is FAKRO FWU-L 69157.

In case you only want the light but do not want the skylight to increase the temperature of the room, the tubular type is more suited. This type of skylight uses a tube with a diffusion dome attached at both ends. The main purpose of the dome is to direct the maximum light inside the room through diffusion. Natural Light Energy Systems is great option if you want a tubular skylight.

2. Window

A lot of science goes into the design the window for the skylight. There is two main reason for it—light and temperature. Using a simple glass window will allow maximum light, but it will also increase the temperature inside the room through the greenhouse effect. If you live in a colder region, skylight with simple glass is fine. But if you are already living in a hot region and do not want the temperature of your room to go up, you need protection for the rays of the hotter end of the light spectrum.

For that glazing is used. In the process of glazing, few-layer coatings are applied to absorb the heat causing rays and allow only cooler rays of the light spectrum. And another way the heat is controlled is by using double pane. Double paned skylights are much more effective than single paned windows because it uses two glass with insulation like argon gas in between to absorb the hot rays.

Besides glass, polycarbonate is also used as a material for the window. It is not transparent like glass but allows white light to maximize the brightness inside the room.

3. Installation

There is a wide variety of roofs and not all support all types of skylights. So, you have to find the right type of skylight for your roof. For flat roofs, fixed or ventilated skylights are well suited, and if you have roofs at an angle, a tubular skylight could be a good option. It would be wise to inspect your roof properly before you buy a skylight. Looking at the angle and space, you will be able to choose the skylight with the right size and type.

How We Tested Skylights?

To find the best skylight, we acquired 19 skylights that are either popular or bestselling. With the help of 9 experts, we were able to shortlist these 19 skylights. Once we had the skylights, we set the parameters for tests. The parameters included factors like brightness, heat, durability, installation, etc. For each parameter, we designed a few tests.

We made sure that equipment or tool we use for measurement is of a high standard. With the help of an expert, we created every possible situation for skylight resembling the real world. We installed it ourselves. And we observed how it affects the light and temperature of the room. In addition to tests, we also contacted users of each 19 skylights with the help of the seller to learn what they think about each model. This gave us an idea about the durability and performance of the skylight after the purchase.

Once we had every data from the tests, expert views and user reviews, each member of the team scored every 19 skylights based on three factors, brightness, durability, and installation. After calculating the overall score, we sorted all skylights from highest to lowest. And we selected the best seven out of the sorted list. Here is scorecard:

History of Radiant Blinds A little bit about the History of Radiant Blinds

John Dean John Dean was the founder of a blind and awning manufacturing business based in Putney in 1894. He was the son of a Devon policemen who travelled to London looking for employment. John worked and lived in a furniture store where he slept at night on the shop counter and educated himself at the local library. Eventually John took over his brother’s blind and awning business in London and ran this successfully throughout his life. Over the years, the company expanded, and he opened branches in Dublin, Manchester, Birmingham, Bournemouth and Bristol.'

Fulham Football Club John Dean became chairman at Fulham Football Club and was dedicated to the club as well as the business. He employed footballers to paint blinds and awnings during the summer months which supplemented their income and some of the players worked for him after their footballing careers had finished. When space was tight in the factory, blinds and awnings were stored under the stands at Fulham.

Charles Bradlaugh Dean & Tony Dean John died in 1942 and was succeeded by his son Charles Bradlaugh. This was during the second world war and blackout blinds were in high demand as well as new blinds for shops which had been bomb damaged. Charles ran the business until his death in 1958 and was succeeded by his sons Charles and Tony. Charles ran the Manchester division named Irving Blinds and Tony ran the London based company. During the 1950s and 1960s the business thrived. People had money but little to spend it on. Tony employed over 120 people and had contracts with most of the big retail stores.

The Dean, Atkinson & Emerson Years Although Tony sold the business in 1968, it did not mean he would leave the blind and awning trade. He already had another smaller blind and awning manufacturing company, Radiant Blinds (using Tony’s initials Richard Anthony Dean). He had set this up to run alongside Deans and provide a double hit on sales opportunities. Once Deans was sold, he ran the venetian blind business for five years and then started selling exterior blinds and awnings again. Radiant Blinds grew and became an established , well-respected, independent company. Tony’s daughter Nicola joined in 1983 and worked closely with her father. In 1988 Nicola and her husband Roger started running the business and were later joined by Roger’s brother Ian until January 2015 when the Emerson family took over. Therefore Radiant Blinds and Awnings continues to be a family concern.
