3 Great Spots for Installing Skylights in Your Home

1. Bathroom

There are two good reasons to install a skylight in the bathroom. First, it allows you to let more natural light into the room without having to worry about privacy issues. You could significantly reduce your energy bills over the years by not relying on your lighting fixtures to keep the room bright.

Second, a lot of moisture can accumulate in the bathroom. If you install a venting skylight, you can let moisture escape. This reduces the odds of mold developing.

2. Bedroom

If you’re less concerned with practical benefits and more interested in adding aesthetic value to your home, install a skylight in the master bedroom. Doing so gives you the opportunity to fall asleep under the stars every night, without the discomfort of having to sleep outside. Consider installing blackout blinds too, so your sleep isn’t disrupted.

3. Kitchen

You need light when cooking, making a skylight a great addition to the kitchen. This is also a smart move if you own a lot of cookware and appliances. With a skylight in the ceiling, you won’t need large windows. Instead, you can use that wall space for additional cabinets or countertop space.

If you do install a skylight, schedule roof cleaning and roof repair work often to keep the view as beautiful as possible. To learn more, get in touch with the professionals at Ray St. Clair Roofing; contact them online, or call (513) 874-1234.
