Skylight installation is quite a difficult process and the homeowner needs to be adequately prepared before they start the process. One of the most important things they need to do is to look for a way in which they will safely get up to and down from the roof. They also need to set aside a stable work area by use of ladders, walk board, roof brackets and others.
They also need to consider the internal layout of the skylight. This will enable them ensure that the skylights are positioned at the appropriate height in order to maximize the view as well as the aesthetic value. For those who are installing two skylights on opposing panes need to ensure that they are parallel and even with each other.
Since these skylights come with different weights and dimensions, it is important that the homeowners plan how they will safely move them from the work base to the appropriate location on the roof. They also need to establish a way through which they will install the skylights without having to tear out or destroy the shingles. The process should have minimal invasion as well as minimal demolition to safe guard the integrity of the roof and that of the Skylight. With all this in place, they can now carry out the skylight installation.
