Colorado Springs Skylight Replacement
Cheyenne Mountain Roofing is your best skylight replacement company, as we have had years of experience and work with the best manufacturers to get you a brand new skylight to replace your old or damaged skylight. Many factors can lead to the need for skylight replacement, including poor installation, a lack of sealing when installed, storm damage, or cracks in the sealing or in the glass itself. If your skylight is facing any of these symptoms, it could cause serious damage in the future if not replaced in a timely manner.
Signs that you need to get a Colorado Springs skylight replacement:
- Age: The lifespan of a skylight has a number of variables that determine its longevity, including the material, the shape, and the initial installation. For example, the typical acrylic skylight lasts about 10 years, while incredibly high-quality skylights can last up to 20 years. A rule of thumb is to get your skylight inspected at year 10 to judge its potential lifespan, and if it has reached its age maximum.
- Water Seepage: If you notice that your ceiling is damp or stained, or if there is discolored, bubbling, or peeling drywall near the skylight, these are all signs that moisture is passing through your roof via the skylight and penetrating the interior of your home. This is a serious issue, as water damage can be a costly fix for ceilings, walls, drywall, and even personal belongings.
- Drafts: If there are serious drafts that come from your skylight, this means that the sealing is beginning to a fault, and the air is getting through into your home. This can cause major temperature regulation issues as well as the chance for water damage if a storm passes through.
- Cracks: If you can see visible cracks in the glass of your skylight, or even in the sealing, this is a sign that you need to get it replaced. Like the other signs, this could cause water seepage, air drafts, and poor insulation.
- Leaks: If you notice pools of water under your skylight after a rainstorm, there is probably a leak. Whether there is a crack in the glass or an issue in the sealant, leaks are serious and need to be addressed immediately.

Skylight Service Frequently Asked Questions
How Much Is a Skylight Installation Cost?
Skylights can be a great way to get more light into your home while taking advantage of natural light. There are a few different factors that go into determining the skylight installation costs, such as the size of the windows, the type of skylight, the amount of labor, and so on. On average, smaller, simple skylight installations can cost a little over $1,000 per skylight to be installed by a professional. Larger luxury skylights with more features can be more expensive at almost $4,000 per skylight installed on average. Your contractor will typically include the cost of the skylight itself, labor to cut the hole in your roof, the installation of the skylight, which includes flashing and waterproofing, and any necessary clean-up.
How Much Light Will a Skylight Installation Add to A Room?
Proper lighting can make or break a room. Good natural lighting can add value to your home, and one of the best ways to get more natural light in your home is with a professional skylight installation. It’s estimated that a skylight installation can increase the natural light in a room by 30% more than a regular window because of its placement. They can be an excellent addition to rooms that you wouldn’t typically want to add windows in, such as bathrooms, or can’t add exterior windows, such as interior rooms without access to exterior walls. You can have glaze, shades, or other materials installed with the skylight, depending on the model, in case you want to be able to close it off from time to time to reduce the amount of natural light in the room. In addition, some skylights can open, so they not only offer additional natural light to your home but fresh air, as well.
Do Skylight Installations Increase Home Value?
Often, one of the first considerations on what to do with your home is whether or not your next project will increase your home’s value in case you decide to refinance it or sell it at a later date. Skylight installations do add value to your home. They are often a unique feature that brings in more natural light and makes a room more appealing. Natural light has been found to be helpful in boosting productivity and improving your mood. They can also help to reduce lighting costs. In addition, since skylights come with various features and upgrades, such as ventilation, shades, smart technology, and more, they can be a luxurious extra that attracts future buyers.
