Easy steps for installing skylights

Have you ever felt that you do not have the technical know-how for installing a skylight? Have you ever wondered what if you knew how it was done? Well, if you have thought that way then this blog post is something that may interest you. Here are a few easy steps for installing skylights at your home: 1. First things first, make sure that the inside dimensions of the skylight must be same as that of the opening on the roof. 2. You must use sufficient amount of roofing cement all around the skylight (preferably up to 3 inches around all the four corners of the skylight). This way, you will seal it perfectly well. 3. Once you have prepared the roof opening, you should place the skylight right on top of the sealing mixture and fasten it with nails and screws at all the ends. 4. Once you have properly fitted the skylight, you can look forward to closing all openings around the skylight. If you do not do so, moisture may seep in and cause health related problems in future. The best way to do so is by applying spray foam solution at all the cavities.
