A skylight is a roof penetration. It has to be flashed like one.

We install skylights with manufacturer flashing kits and roof detailing that stay watertight through Ohio rain, ice, and snow.

The problem

Want daylight without inviting a roof leak?

Skylights fail when they are treated like windows set on a roof. The curb, flashing, and counterflash have to shed water around the unit. Done right, you get light. Done wrong, you get a chronic leak over a room you care about.

  • Old leaky unit nearby
  • Want solar gain
  • Hallway cave

What's included

What this service includes

  • Proper Flashing

    Proper Flashing is written into the skylight installation scope so the work is complete, not a partial fix that fails next season.

  • Leak-Free Seal

    Leak-Free Seal is written into the skylight installation scope so the work is complete, not a partial fix that fails next season.

  • Natural Light

    Natural Light is written into the skylight installation scope so the work is complete, not a partial fix that fails next season.

  • Pan flashing

    Sills are detailed to drain water out, not into the rough opening.

  • Insulated shims and gaps

    The unit is set plumb, then the gap is sealed so drafts do not live in the cavity.

  • Interior and exterior trim

    Both sides of the opening are finished so the install looks complete from the curb and from the room.

Why Dominion

Why homeowners choose Dominion for this work

01

Openings that seal

Flashing and insulation around the unit matter as much as the glass package.

02

Trim that belongs

Interior and exterior finishes are part of the install, not a 'you figure it out' leftover.

03

Comfort you can feel

Fewer drafts, less fogging, and quieter rooms are the point, not just a new grid pattern.

Objections, answered

Straight answers before you book

  • Right method for the opening
  • Better seals, honest physics
  • Flashed like a roof
  • Trim included

Inserts can work in sound frames. Rotten sills and failed flashing need a full-frame swap. We recommend based on the opening, not the higher ticket.

Better glass and tighter installs cut condensation. Household humidity still matters. We explain both so expectations stay honest.

Yes. Skylights are roof penetrations. We use the manufacturer flashing kit and roofing detail, not a bead of caulk.

We finish the opening. Interior casing and exterior trim are part of a complete window or door install unless you ask us to stop at the unit.
