"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."

"Curant Construction did an excellent job replacing our roof. The owners were very professional, competent, and their customer service was outstanding. After our insurance company said there was not enough damage to replace both our house and large detached garage, they took complete ownership by calling the adjuster to walk the roof with him to ensure a detailed inspection was completed in which resulted in replacing both roofs. They handled the insurance replacement process and even went back to our insurance company to have our Gutter Shutter hoods removed so they would not be damaged. On installation day they arrived bright and early with their crew and completed both roofs in 8 hours to beat the rain. Our new roof is beautiful and expertly installed. Their follow up, attention to detail, and knowledge base is exceptional. We would highly recommend Curant Construction to anyone needing a complete roof replacement or repair. Thank you Joey, Cory, and Justin! Blessings from the Thompson s"

"Had to replace an ancient Jenn-Air drop-in range with downdraft (installed in 1979) with a new LG duel fuel gas stove/electric oven range slide in. Knew it would take some work. Randy and Dan were great during the installation. Tim was very responsive."

"There were some good things and some bad things.   I wrote some notes at the time of work and then waited over a year to see how the roof performed before writing this review.
Work Duration:  The duration of the work was not as promised.  It was supposed to be a 1 to 1.5 day max job.  The roofing installation itself took 2 full days not including the misc. touch up return visits.  The gutter installation was another day or so of work a few days after the roof completed.  Perhaps the representative was speaking to just the duration of the roofing work since gutter work was sub-contracted out but that was not the impression that I had at the time.
Valley Construction: 
When I spoke with Dan a few weeks before the job was to start I expressed my preference for an open valley with the metal flashing down each.  On the day of the install during the tear off of I asked Dan again about having new valley material on hand.  Once the shingles started going on I discovered, after 1 or 2 valleys were already done, that they were using a closed valley system.  I decided at the time to not stop the work since the roof was already partially done and any delays would likely result in the job bleeding over further into the weekend and possibly not even be completed before it was due to rain on Sunday.  My wife likes the way it looks with the closed valleys so it's not a huge issue but it's not what was agreed upon.
Resolution:  When confronted with this issue the installer immediately conceded the point that the valley construction was an error and offered to re-do the valleys.  Since we though they looked OK and the method met the warranty needs we left them as is to avoid any knock on issues involved with tearing off and patching in new valleys.  The installer also knocked of the cost of the added roof decking material required for the job which reduced the cost by a few $100.  I was satisfied with this.
 
Worker Language/Disrespect:  I may not be a native Spanish speaker but I know enough to know when I'm being insulted.  On two occasions while I was walking around the house to inspect the status of the project I heard "Cabron" and "P******" spoken while I was present.  I can't say it was directed at me for certain since they were not speaking directly to me at the time but I'd say it's a fair bet the pejoratives where meant for me.  Frankly I don't care what your workers think of me as long as they do quality work  but at least have the common sense not to insult your customer when he's within earshot.
Resolution:  I brought it up with the installer and he said he talk to them.  Who knows if he actually did or if it did any good.  I wasn?t looking to get anybody fired so this was about all I expected to get.
 
Damage Caused By Work:  Per the pre-construction evaluation instructions we moved everything of value that could be moved away from the house to prevent damage.  However, I can't move my heat pump.  I did cover it with a piece of plywood though but that doesn't appear to have been enough.  Something heavy with asphalt on it, maybe a bundle of shingles, fell from the roof and landed on my heat pump.  The plywood I put in place protected it to some extent but the blow lefty a tarry scuff on the body of the unit and broke off the logo.  It also appears to have struck the coolant lines going to and from the house.  They appear to be intact but the force fractures the siding around the hole where tubes inter the house and broke loose all the weather sealing around that penetration.  The same object or another object also hit the furnace vent adjacent to the heat pump and over the window well.  the siding was cracked around one of the vents and the sealant around both was pulled loose.
Resolution:  I pointed this damage out to the installer.  The damage appeared to be largely cosmetic, except for the cracked siding, and the heat pump appear to still work.  However, I was concerned the damage might be subtle, a slow leak maybe, resulting in a problem manifesting weeks or months later.  I requested only written assurance that if a problem did develop that
they?d cover the cost since I?d met my end of the bargain in trying to protect the heat pump.  The installer went one better an had an HVAC person come out and check the system right away.  It was given a clean bill of health, sealing around the lines was re-done and a year later everything appears to be still working fine.  This was a more than acceptable outcome.
 
Leak:  The following spring we had a minor leak around one of the skylights.  We called the installer in to evaluate they applied a temporary fix but denied the leak around the skylight was the result of their work because they skylights were not replaced.  The problem is I remember the skylights coming apart at least partially when they did the flashing and snow/ice guard around them but I don?t have proof so there?s not much I can do about it.  The temporary fix has held fine and hopefully will continue to do so until we get around to replacing the skylights.
Resolution:  None except the temporary fix which they did not charge us for.  If I could find the photos of the skylight
from before the work to show that the state of them had changed I might make an issue of it but I can?t find them so that?s about it.
 
Miscellaneous:  There were numerous small issues like a missing piece of drip edge or on a short section or less than perfect cleanup but nothing major.
Resolution:  The installer was pretty good about sending someone out to address the 5-10 misc. minor things I noticed about the work in some areas.  I was satisfied with this.

FAQs for skylight installation projects in Cincinnati, OH

Professional contractors complete solar tube installations within several hours per unit, depending on roof accessibility and interior finishing requirements. The process involves precise measurement, careful roof penetration, tube assembly, and interior diffuser mounting. Factors like roof complexity, attic obstructions, or custom finishing details may extend the timeline. For safety and efficiency, professional installation proceeds more rapidly than DIY approaches.

Solar tubes provide more cost-effective natural lighting than conventional skylights, particularly for smaller spaces or limited budgets. While traditional skylights offer open sky views and ventilation options, tubular alternatives deliver comparable illumination at substantially lower installation costs. Solar tubes also require smaller roof openings, reducing structural modifications and potential leak points. Your specific needs regarding aesthetics, budget, and lighting requirements should guide this decision.

Do solar tubes work well in cloudy climates?

Solar tubes remain effective even in regions with frequent cloud cover, though illumination intensity naturally decreases during overcast conditions. Their highly reflective interior surfaces maximize ambient light, providing meaningful brightness even without direct sunlight. For locations with extended cloudy periods, consider models with supplemental lighting options that activate automatically when natural light diminishes. Most homeowners find that solar tubes provide worthwhile illumination benefits regardless of regional weather patterns.

Quality solar tubes provide an average of 20 years of effective illumination before noticeable dimming occurs. Premium models with enhanced materials and professional installation may extend performance up to 50 years, depending on environmental conditions and maintenance practices. Manufacturers often back their products with 10 to 25-year warranties covering materials and performance. Regular inspection and occasional dome cleaning help maximize operational lifespan.

Solar tubes work most effectively in rooms with direct roof access above them. Upper-floor spaces like bathrooms, hallways, and closets make ideal candidates for these lighting solutions. Installation becomes more challenging in rooms without vertical access to the roof, such as in multi-level homes or beneath attics with complex obstructions. Extended tubing configurations may provide solutions for spaces without direct roof access, though with potentially reduced light transmission.

Properly installed solar tubes with appropriate flashing and sealing should not cause roof leaks. Most water infiltration issues stem from incorrect installation techniques or unsuitable materials for specific roof types. Using manufacturer-recommended flashing kits designed for your roofing material significantly reduces leak risks. Regular inspection of exterior seals and prompt attention to any signs of moisture help prevent potential water damage. Professional installation provides the best protection against leakage concerns.
