A skylight can transform a dim upstairs hallway or a dated kitchen into a brighter, more open feeling space, but it's also one of the most common sources of roof leaks when it isn't installed correctly. Flashing detail around a skylight has to account for Ardsley's real winter weather: snow load, ice buildup along the roof edge, and freeze-thaw cycles that stress any seal not installed to a high standard.
Meridian Contracting installs skylights throughout Ardsley and the Lower Hudson Valley as part of new construction, additions, and replacement projects.
Bring natural light into a room without opening, a straightforward option for hallways, stairwells, and reading nooks.
Open to improve airflow, useful in kitchens, bathrooms, or upper-floor rooms that trap heat in summer.
Replacing a leaking, fogged, or outdated skylight with a properly flashed modern unit rather than just recaulking a failing seal.
Ardsley's winter snow load and freeze-thaw cycles mean skylight flashing needs to be detailed to current best practice, with ice and water shield membrane around the opening in addition to standard flashing, especially on the village's steeper-pitched roofs.
Yes, we replace outdated or failing skylights with new units and proper flashing rather than patching a failing seal.
