Why We Recommend Skylights During a Roof Replacement
The simple installation that saves you money and pairs perfectly with your roof replacement.
Very few home exterior additions have as much incredible versatility as adding a skylight during your roof replacement.
When replacing their roof, many homeowners opt for the standard procedure, often neglecting the opportunity to introduce innovative technology into their homes.
At Oliwill Construction, we install VELUX Skylights because they are an industry-leading product with reliable flashing systems designed to integrate with roofing materials. See their website for more details.
The ideal time to install a skylight is during a roof replacement since shingles and underlayment are already being removed and replaced. This allows for proper waterproofing, flashing installation, and a cleaner overall finished product.
At Oliwill Construction, we understand that rising costs are cascading across several major fields right now, causing homeowners to feel that property improvements are lower on the priority list.
However, these are services that matter and can save you money in the long run; the sooner you act.

Many property owners go blind to their buildings’ exterior. We usually accept things like buildings, cars, office complexes, and factories as finished products.
