Installing skylights on the roof to beautify your interiors? Are you familiar with the guidelines on skylight installations? What are the basic considerations to be noted before and after installing skylights? The first and foremost decision to be made when installing skylights is on the place. Where do you like to install skylight? In the bedroom, kitchen or the living room? Pick your choice and then see if the skylight will give the desired effect to that particular room as intended.
Later, look for an apt position, where the cut must be made. If you do not think through this aspect clearly, you will end up with a skylight for all the wrong reasons. For example, some people would want to install a skylight to let the morning rays into their room, but due to improper placement, they only get to see the sunset. So, try to avoid any such situations.
Choose a nice, non-rainy day for installing the skylight. And once the hole is cut into the roof, it should take more than six hours to complete the entire installation. After installing skylight, make sure that all the sides of the skylight are sealed properly and there are no gaps, whatsoever. The last thing you need is a leaky cauldron under the seeping skylight, in the middle of the living room.
