Home » Benefits of Installing a Skylight

Do you have a skylight in your home? If you don’t, you may not even realize what you are missing. Today’s skylights offer no leak guarantees offering multiple benefits for homeowners, such as natural light and fresh air. If you are searching for your next home improvement project, consider a skylight installation. You will love your new sky light replacement and will be able to enjoy it quickly.

Skylights brighten the room
Traditional overhead lights or lamps can only do so much to light up homes with limited windows or access to sunlight. If you are looking for a sure-fire way to get more natural light into your home’s nooks and crannies, skylights are the best option to consider. We love when homeowners use skylights to add more light in dark hallways or in small bathrooms. A little extra light goes a long way and makes a major difference.

Skylights can fit in small spaces
Custom skylights come in all shapes and sizes, suitable to fit in most existing skylights. They are great to brighten up your kitchen or bathroom, and a series of smaller skylights for your bonus room in the attic can make it feel airy and bright.

Skylights increase property value
All of that natural light does wonders for your property value. Home buyers love the extra sunlight that skylights bring into the home and will pay additional money to have that luxury, making selling your home even easier.

Skylights allow for access to fresh air
You can open your skylight to allow fresh air into your home, or close to gain insulation benefits, with a simple to use remote control. Skylights offer you the opportunity to bring fresh air into your home any time you want and automatically close if it rains. Access to sunlight and fresh air are major benefits for your home, and for your property value.

Are you ready to explore the option of skylights? You can still get a 30% tax credit on the materials and the labor! Stop in and sit down with a friendly person from Rusco to find out more.
