Fill Your Home With Natural Light. Without a Single Worry
There's nothing quite like sunlight streaming through a skylight on a cold Central New York morning. A well-placed skylight transforms a dark hallway, a cramped bathroom, or a closed-in kitchen into a bright, open space you actually want to be in.
But a poorly installed skylight? That's a leak waiting to happen. Water stains on your ceiling. Drafts in winter. Condensation between the panes. We've fixed enough bad installations to know the difference.
At Jewett Roofing Company, we've been installing and replacing skylights across Clinton for over 40 years. We do it right the first time — proper flashing, tight seals, zero leaks. Just beautiful natural light you can enjoy for decades.
OUR SKYLIGHT SERVICES
New Skylight Installation: Adding a skylight where there wasn't one before. We handle the full process — cutting the roof opening, framing, flashing, sealing, and interior finishing.
Skylight Replacement: Old, leaking, or foggy skylight? We remove it and install a new, energy-efficient unit. Better glass. Better seals. Better light.
Leaking Skylight Repair: Water stains around your skylight? We trace the leak, repair or replace the flashing, and make it watertight. Often fixable without full replacement.
Tubular Skylights: Perfect for small spaces like hallways, closets, and bathrooms. Compact, affordable, and surprisingly bright. Minimal roof penetration.
Ventilated Skylights: Skylights that open for fresh air. Great for kitchens and bathrooms. Manual or solar-powered options available.
Fixed Skylights: Sealed units that provide light without ventilation. Best for high ceilings, living rooms, and spaces where you want light but not airflow.
SIGNS YOUR SKYLIGHT NEEDS REPLACEMENT OR REPAIR
Water Stains Around the Skylight: The flashing or seal is failing. Water is getting in. This won't fix itself. Call us for an inspection.
Condensation Between Glass Panes: The seal on a double-pane skylight has failed. Foggy glass means lost insulation and eventual leaks. Replacement needed.
Drafts Near the Skylight: Poor seal around the frame or failed weatherstripping on a ventilated unit. Your heated air is escaping.
Cracked or Damaged Glass: Hail, falling branches, or age. Cracked glass compromises insulation and can let water through. Don't wait.
Visible Leaks During Rain: Active leak. Water is actively damaging your ceiling, insulation, and drywall. Call immediately.
Fading or Discolored Interior: UV damage from an old, non-treated skylight. Modern low-E glass blocks UV rays while letting light in.
Skylight Won't Open or Close: Ventilated model mechanism has failed. Motor, crank, or solar panel issue. Repairable in most cases.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Skylight Installation & Replacement FAQs.
Q: How much does a skylight installation cost in Clinton, NY?
A: Skylight costs vary based on type, size, and whether it's a new installation or replacement.
Q: Can you install a skylight in any room?
A: Most rooms with direct roof access can accommodate a skylight. The main consideration is the roof structure and attic space. We'll assess your home during the free consultation and let you know exactly what's possible.
Q: Will a skylight make my room hotter in summer?
A: Modern skylights with low-E glass and solar coatings block significant heat while letting light through. Ventilated models can be opened to release hot air. We recommend the right glass package for your room's orientation to the sun.
Q: How long does skylight installation take?
A: A standard skylight installation or replacement is typically completed in one day. New installations requiring framing may take 1-2 days. We'll give you a clear timeline during your estimate.
Q: Do you repair leaking skylights or only replace them?
A: Both. Many leaks can be fixed by repairing or replacing the flashing around the skylight without replacing the unit itself. We'll inspect and give you an honest recommendation — repair what we can, replace only if needed.
Q: Will a skylight leak over time
A: Not if it's installed correctly. We use manufacturer-specified flashing kits, proper underlayment integration, and meticulous sealing techniques. Our skylights are guaranteed leak-free.
Q: Can you replace an old skylight with a larger one
A: Yes, in many cases. We'll assess the roof structure and rafter spacing. If the opening can be safely enlarged, we can upgrade you to a bigger skylight for even more natural light.
