Skylight & Roof Ventilation Services

Skylight Services

New Skylight Installation

We install fixed and venting skylights from leading manufacturers. Our installation process includes structural assessment, precision cutting, proper framing, waterproof flashing, and interior finishing. Every skylight we install is designed to be leak-free and energy efficient.

Skylight Replacement

If your existing skylight is leaking, foggy, or showing its age, replacement is often the best option. Modern skylights offer dramatically better energy efficiency, UV protection, and leak prevention compared to skylights from even 10 to 15 years ago.

Skylight Repair

Leaking or damaged skylights can often be repaired by replacing the flashing, resealing the curb, or replacing the glazing. We assess your skylight and recommend the most cost-effective solution.

Roof Ventilation Services

Proper attic ventilation is essential in South Carolina's hot, humid climate. Without adequate ventilation, heat and moisture build up in your attic, causing premature shingle deterioration, ice dams in winter, mold growth, and increased cooling costs.

Ventilation Types We Install

  • Ridge Vents: Continuous ventilation along the roof peak for maximum airflow
  • Soffit Vents: Intake vents along the eaves that work with ridge vents
  • Turbine Vents: Wind-powered vents that actively pull hot air from the attic
  • Box Vents: Static vents for targeted attic ventilation
  • Powered Attic Fans: Electric or solar-powered fans for maximum cooling
  • Gable Vents: Cross-ventilation through gable end walls

Why Ventilation Matters in South Carolina

  • Extends shingle life: Reduces attic heat that causes premature shingle aging and granule loss
  • Prevents moisture damage: Removes humid air that causes mold, mildew, and wood rot
  • Lowers energy costs: Reduces attic temperature by 20 to 40 degrees, easing the load on your AC
  • Protects your warranty: Most shingle manufacturers require proper ventilation for warranty coverage

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does it cost to install a skylight in South Carolina?
Skylight installation in the Orangeburg County area typically ranges from $1,500 to $3,500 depending on the skylight size, type (fixed or venting), and roof complexity. This includes the skylight unit, flashing kit, interior finishing, and labor. Call Dubya Roofing and Gutters at (803) 855-1850 for a free estimate specific to your home.
Do skylights cause roof leaks?
When properly installed by an experienced roofing contractor, skylights do not cause leaks. Leaks around skylights are almost always the result of improper installation or deteriorated flashing. Dubya Roofing and Gutters uses manufacturer-approved flashing kits and proven installation techniques to ensure a watertight seal.
What type of roof ventilation is best for South Carolina homes?
Ridge vents combined with soffit vents provide the most effective ventilation for South Carolina homes. This system creates natural convection that pulls hot, humid air out through the ridge while drawing cooler air in through the soffits. Proper ventilation is critical in our climate to prevent moisture buildup, reduce cooling costs, and extend shingle life.
Can you add a skylight to an existing roof?
Yes, skylights can be installed on most existing roofs as long as there are no structural obstructions in the desired location. We inspect your roof structure and attic framing to determine the best placement and ensure proper support. We handle the complete installation including cutting the opening, framing, waterproofing, and interior finishing.
Does roof ventilation really reduce energy costs?
Yes, proper roof ventilation can reduce attic temperatures by 20 to 40 degrees Fahrenheit during summer. In South Carolina, where air conditioning accounts for a large portion of energy costs, this temperature reduction helps your AC system work more efficiently and can lower cooling costs by 10 to 15 percent.
