"We are very satisfied with the replacement skylights (8 installed). Additionally, we are very impressed with how flawlessly NSS coordinated with our roofing company to efficiently install 8 skylights as an integral part of a much larger home improvement project. It was stress free for us. We would recommend this company without hesitation."

"I was happy to find a local company who could replace the ropes in 2 of my windows. They also replaced a broken pane in one of my "French doors". They'll come later this year for 3 other things I need done -- replacing 2 basement windows and a screen door."

"I would hire them again for my next project. I reached out for an estimate on roofing repair and vinyl siding repair. They were at my house the very next day for the estimate and completing the repairs the day after that. On time, professional, full of knowledge and explained every step and process and purpose of the repairs. He saved me a world of time and headaches. My next home repair will be with Apex."

"I cannot say enough wonderful things about Faithful Roofing and Masonry. Martino and his team did a remarkable job on my home. In just about four days, they replaced damaged wood on my roof, installed beautiful new shingles, and completed the siding on the front of my house. The materials are high quality and everything looks like it will last for many years to come. The craftsmanship truly speaks for itself. I am so thankful that Martino and I crossed paths. Martino was respectful, punctual, and completely true to his word. He explained every step of the process clearly and made sure I understood what was being done. I especially appreciated how he used drone technology to show me detailed before-and-after pictures — that level of transparency and professionalism meant so much. I am beyond pleased with the results and honestly left speechless. Please book him! If you are looking for roofing or masonry work, p"

"They were able to replace the skylight in less than 2 weeks after the quote. They did a good job and make the finish on the inside look good. A few weeks later, there was a heavy rain and my new skylight is no longer leaking like my old one that was replaced."

"I have dealer with various roofers for months. First it was difficult to get anyone to come out at all. Second, a few that did come out did not bother to even give me a quote. Third, the ones that provided a quote either did not address the problem I have or the quote was unrealistically high. Finally many are so busy that the work would have to be schedule weeks into the future. Johns came out gave me a quote on the spot and tells me they can do it in a week. I not only gave them the roofing job, I also hired them to replace my huge skylight which I had plan to give to another company. To make a long story short, they came out with a large crew and completed everything in 3 hours. If I ever need roofing work, John’s affiliates is the only choice for me. Great Job!!"

FAQs for existing skylight repair, replacements or sealing projects in Chicago, IL

Yes, skylights can heat your house. Skylights pull in plenty of sunlight, and that solar gain raises indoor temperatures during bright hours. The extra warmth is great in winter, but can feel stuffy in summer. Keep the heat in check with shades, low-E coatings, or reflective films so you enjoy the light without driving up cooling bills.

A newly installed skylight lasts for eight to 15 years when built and maintained well. Regular cleaning, prompt repairs, and removing obstructions such as leaves and debris help keep the unit in optimal condition. Consistent maintenance prevents premature deterioration and keeps the skylight operating safely and efficiently over its lifespan.

Several issues trigger skylight leaks. The unit may not sit flush with the roof, letting water sneak in, or the flashing and weather-stripping could be breaking down. Sometimes it’s just interior condensation that drips when the AC runs hard against humid outdoor air. A quick inspection tells you which fix is needed.

Replacing a skylight takes between three and five hours under straightforward conditions, with professional crews ensuring safe installation. Larger units, custom shapes, very high ceilings, or hard-to-access areas add extra complexity, extending the work time accordingly. Careful planning and expert handling guarantee a secure replacement process even when complications are present.

It is not safe to attempt skylight repair or replacement on your own because the work involves dangerous roof access, handling fragile glass, and managing a heavy frame. Expert professionals provide the necessary skills and safety precautions, ensuring that installations or repairs are performed correctly while preventing injury and additional property damage.
