\"When-Should-You-Replace-Your-Skylights\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Skylights are a beautiful feature of many homes, offering exterior curb appeal, expanded indoor lighting, and a chance to see the night sky indoors. But for many homeowners they can be out of sight and out of mind, especially when it comes to maintenance. Read our blog for valuable information on when to replace your skylights.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Most Skylights Should Be Replaced Every 10 Years<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The easiest way to keep up with your skylights is to consider their age. For optimal performance and minimal wear and tear, skylights should be replaced every 10 years or so. Of course, some issues can occur that may mean a replacement is in order a little sooner. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Signs You Need a New Skylight<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

If you\u2019re seeing cracked glass, that\u2019s a pretty clear indicator you need a new skylight. But other seemingly less detrimental signs of aging like yellowed or murky glass or bubbling around the drywall can mean it\u2019s time to call in a professional<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Replacing a Leaky Skylight?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Leaks in your skylights obviously need to be repaired, but do they need to be replaced? Reflashing<\/a> a skylight can range anywhere from $200 to $600 while a replacement can range from $800 to $1500. Depending on the age of your current skylights, it may be worth paying the extra cost now rather than having to replace it or repair it again in a few years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Replace Your Skylight When Putting on a New Roof<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Like skylights, roofs also have a limited lifetime. Depending on the material, you\u2019ll need to replace your roof every 12 to 30 years. If it\u2019s time to update your roof, you can save time on labor by replacing your skylights simultaneously. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
