The skylights are cracked, leaking and seriously obsolete.
The new owner of this 70 year old home in the Park Hill neighborhood in Denver, CO was aware that the kitchen wasdark and gloomy. The shade from the roof over the patio outside the kitchen window greatly reduced the available dylight.

It has made such a HUGE difference
Exceeded my expectations! When I purchased my house, I knew I had to pursue a skylight installation because the kitchen was quite dark/gloomy from the overhanging patio just outside the only kitchen window there is. I’m so glad that I did! It has made such a HUGE difference and all the natural light it brings in is amazing! It not only looks modern and updates my kitchen, but its also more welcoming and widens the room.
From start to finish, it went really smoothly and everyone I interacted with was very friendly and professional. Julia was extremely helpful and great to work with in providing information, what to expect and answering any questions I had. Nick and Jake did my skylight install and they did a phenomenal job! I requested that the flare of the skylight be as wide open as it would allow and they accomplished what I wanted. They also installed the lighting for me, which was such a huge help. I am very appreciative and love my new skylight! :)))))))
The benefits of a modern skylight upgrade are many.
- Modern loE3 glass is remarkably sophisticated—letting in plenty of light and blocking the majority of the sun's heat.
- The coating also blocks over 99% of harmful ultraviolet rays, protecting your furniture and flooring from fading.
- Solar room darkening shades contribute to energy savings by blocking the sun's heat. They also act as an insulator to keep warmth in at night or on cold winter days.
- Reducing heat gain during the summer months leads to lower energy bills.
- Helps keep a more consistent temperature throughout your home, reducing hot spots and providing a more comfortable living space.
- Brightens your rooms and reduces the need for artificial lighting.
