Why Homeowners in Encino Choose LA Skylight Pros
Encino jobs tend to come in two flavors: whole-house renovation projects where the homeowner is adding skylights to multiple rooms at once, and repair calls on tile roof installations that a previous contractor got wrong. Both are common and we handle both regularly.
The renovation projects in Encino run larger than average. Spanish Revival and Mediterranean homes on larger lots, primary suite additions, kitchen expansions, these projects often involve three to five skylight units being installed in the same visit as part of a broader renovation scope. Multi-unit installations require more planning up front: locating each unit between rafters where possible, sizing correctly for each space, and sequencing the installation so the roofing and drywall contractors can follow our work without delays.
The repair calls in Encino are frequently on tile roofs where the original installer used caulk instead of step flashing, or installed step flashing incorrectly and compensated with sealant. Caulk-dependent installations start leaking within a few years in Southern California’s thermal cycling environment. The fix is a complete re-flash, not more caulk. We have done this repair dozens of times in Encino specifically.
