Warm roofing welcome......from one roofer to another.... welcome you hairless man child
Lol, thanks GOAT roofer!!!
@@RoofingInsights3.0 good to see that Russian Americans bastard picked a roofer To host.....i can tell with this video alone that you don't fuck around. Only hacks can't do skylights. Especially in this day and age with the tech the roofing industry has finally added.
@Sage Malachi no one cares twat
Skylights add VALUE to a home and the knowledge to install skylights makes a roofer VALUABLE!
I'm installing 4 Velux skylights in about a month. Really excited to perfect the install!
You have to do tutorial video now
@@RoofingInsights3.0 me? I plan on documenting the install and admitting that this is my first; to show how easy it is if you follow directions and advice from 5 star installers!
Thanks Michael!
Roofing Insights tutorial coming right up
I love doing new things that come with good instructions, anytime I have the opportunity to follow instructions makes it easier the next time. Even it's bad instructions at least it's something, Velux has great instructions though. I had a glass shower door instructions set that said every wall had to be perfectly level and square and at the end said it could be up to 2" out of square I took all the drywall off to level the walls that were 1/2" out of level and found out I didn't need to but it was nicer that it was level after.
Yeah Brent, Welcome , and just like you said about no one wanting to read the instructions! When you put a
Velux Skylight in you pick up a lot of labor too. Roofing, framing, insulation, drywall. It's all in a package. If you
can do everything with one contractor, you win! I'm having my roof replaced and have an older Velux on my roof.
I'm replacing it with a new model when the roof is done and I couldn't be happier with Velux quality. They really do
last longer than the warranty. You know the old saying, "when you have lemons, make lemonade"! Good luck Brent!
Thanks for Feedback! Got your email about company your are going with, great company! Let us know how it goes!
@@RoofingInsights3.0 New roof is on as of 06/12/2020. R&R done in one day. Jim and his guys got there early and did a very professional job. O.C. Sedona Canyon really pops in the am sun! Cleaned up like they were never there. Thanks Roofing Insights for the Directory and making it easy for all of us in choosing a contractor.
I love installing skylights I’m proud of my self after I see the job finished 🙌🏻
Says a lot about you. What brands do you install? Do you have to deal with interior finishing much?
I like to do skylights, there’s some tough ones but do them with no hate. Velux are the ones.
I’m a vip certified velux installer,welcome bud quality is important keep up the great work
Welcome to the channel, glad to have you around
From where?
Glad to see you join roofing insights Brent! I have been following restoration roofing on UA-cam for a while as well. You guys rock 👊
Good to see you around David! I think it will be very close arm wrestling match between you and Brent. You two can start training for second place at IRE next year
This really SHEDS A LOT OF LIFE on the skylight industry. Welcome Brant! 😂
thanks for feedback! Glad you found it helpfull
Congrats on joining the team. A warm welcome from hub city (a short drive east). You’re obviously on top of your trade, and Velux solidifies a commitment to using quality products.
If people can read and understand instructions, Velux skylights will not leak. If for some any they ever do leak, Velux stands behind their product, and will go any extra miles needed to ensure there won’t be another problem. Velux is a phenomenal company, with an equally phenomenal product.
Do you also d.b.a. as “Solar Lights R Us?” They say 2 niches are better than one.
Interesting enough I was a little younger than he was when I got my start in that same market! I lived in Olive Branch MS about a mile from the TN line into Memphis. It’s where I learned the business! He seems like a good kid definitely inspirational!
Skylights aren't the problem for the most part, installer negligence and conditions below the window creating condensation are the biggest issues in Edmonton Canada. VELUX is king of skylights.
good feedback, agree 100%
Velux for the win. It's funny to me that guys don't like doing skylights. I've never experienced someone like that. It's pretty simple. Peel and stick around and up the curb. Wall flash in front step on sides back pan in back. Put on your counter flash. Put the new lid on. It take 30 minutes if that
When I first started roofing there was 2 types of sky lights.. Ones that leak now and ones that leak later.. now there’s a 3rd type, the ones I install!
Nice to see ya on the channel!
Lol, many roofers has been saying that phrase for years
Roofing Insights lol I imagine so.
I’m 19 and I install skylights, easy as pie, just have a open mind and think of the obvious.
I’m glad your happy. Can’t say we feel the same way.
Thanks for info. Today we are going to install sky light in our home attic room.
I know this is an old video but does that solar hack still valid?
Good stuff.
I use the competition product.
Suntek Skylights.
Velux is a decent product however in my 36 years of residential roofing repair, I have found the velux glazing failed. It is a bastard to reglaze. I am sure that they have changed the design.
Welcome aboard young man, good luck.
Thanks David for great insights.
Thanks for sharing your expertise!!!! Facial hair is way overrated btw. 🧔🏻♀️
Great info. I think I will stay with the original skylights, I am now afraid of leaks which I dont have. We are installing a new roof and I dont think I trust them with replacing skylights. Any thoughts I live in Round Rock Texas
I realize this video is a year or so old, but I just ran across it. My husband has a construction background.. We are now building our log home (ourselves) in our retirement. We are almost ready for the final roofing material to go on. My husband said it is time that I research the types of skylights I might want him or a contractor to install. We have a full wrap-around porch which will greatly reduce the direct sun rays hitting the exterior logs and the impact of the sun coming through many of the windows. While this is a good thing, the porch will also increase the need for additional interior lighting. I'm interested in finding out more information about these current skylight options, including costs and warranty terms. Our roof underlayment has a 25 year warranty. I'm guessing the skylight warranty term won't be that long. Also, does the warranty allow for owner installs or must the skylights be installed by a contractor? Lastly, is there a Velux and/or Restoration Roofing contractor located in NE or central Louisiana? Thank you!
I love your attitude toward the business!! You also seem to have a very respectable business model too! Congratulations!
Thanks Brock. I have my struggles and demons like everyone else but striving to be a light here, Brent is amazing at what he does.
😍 I completely understand! I have had my fair share of struggles also.. as a 27 year old running a very large company the load is heavy to carry. Maybe some day you will come see me!! But none the less a lot of us love seeing your input, knowledge and gift of sharing other peoples story!
Keep up the great work!
Great interview ! Loved the piece on solar. Nice work Roofing Insights !
Thanks Craig! Solar energy tip was amazing!!! Real loophole in skylights world 🤫
Why didn’t the foam wanna get on the roof?............. Because he was afraid he’d get stuck..... 😂 (sarcasm starts it’s finest) winner winner chicken dinner!
Perhaps you could do a video on skylights comparison. Would love to see FAKRO vs Velux.
Order taken. Will do in the near future!
Hey Brent! Shine bright like a skylight my man!
Lol, that’s funny, good creative roofing humor
Very cool!
How can I get this done in Clifton NJ?
Welcome Brent! Let us know any tips for properly maintaining skylights so we can UPSELL UPSELL UPSELL!! All the best from Miami Florida!!
Up sell is good but you can just sell skylights too and make it a good service to offer to compliment your roofing business
@@RoofingInsights3.0 is that you Dmitri?
Rooftop Solutions LLC yes sir
When I install a roof, I don’t warranty the skylights unless the customer lets me completely replace them. That’s a good incentive to replace them!
Awesome interview.
Thanks Moses, restoration roofing company tour coming next, I think you will like it
Dimitry must be taking advantage of the cheap air travel at the moment!
Traveling is the best right now.
I’m the local skylight guy for the Salt Lake Valley in Ut. I’d be interested in exchanging info with you so that we may be able to do some business in the future, please DM me if I can be of service.
Let’s talk!!!
Aladdin Skylights In South Salt Lake is an awesome company down there as well. I've had them build me about a dozen custom skylights over the last couple years. from 2 glass triangle ones to 3, 4'x8' glass ones. Awesome group of people!
They are not that difficult to install just read instructions and go on utube I have installed mostly on slate and roof tile
I like them too
What's your preaching is pretty much pie in the sky at least in the Wisconsin Illinois area. If you ask about any standards for a roofer they will greatly raise there quote or will not be interested in the job. Wisconsin roofers aren't regulated probably most of the states this is also the case it's a roofers Market for whatever reason and I have yet to find a roofer honest enough to disclose their standards and still not rip you off. How does 900 a square sound.
This is disturbing. If you need a contractor we will find one for you. Check our roofinginsights.com/directory to find someone in your area. If you don’t see one we can find someone for you in our network
skylights are a great source of leads, lol
its true. He was referring to the program
Lol, whats the issue with skylights. Roofers install and flash/ interior guys trim out.
Easy peasey lemon squeezey
I've always wondered why we don't have some kind of cricket behind skylights. All. That water hitting the back of it it's no better than a chimney with no cricket.
I feel like the quality of all windows in the US is way behind Europe. We need the double hinged systems standard here.
Agree on quality part. Europe has much higher construction quality overall. Here speed and price matters most, not quality
Must really suck to be young and successful. Glad it ain't me.
😂😂😂
Throwing shade every video man.grow up and focus on yourself
Lol. Throwing shade on who now? Have you watch the video? Paranoid someone will talk about you or something?
@@RoofingInsights3.0 dude you know who ur talking about.you think your making little sly comments but everyone knows
joe momma lol, if you want to save nails and not to follow manufacturer instructions yes we will be talk about hacks on UA-cam in industry. Shouldn’t bother those who do it right
Interesting enough I was a little younger than he was when I got my start in that same market! I lived in Olive Branch MS about a mile from the TN line into Memphis. It’s where I learned the business! He seems like a good kid definitely inspirational!
Thanks for sharing. Brent is sharp and yes, we enjoy travel these days
