Why do companies offer free quotes?

Imagine you have a cut that requires stitches, and you're faced with a choice: you can either have a medical student who has stitched a few injuries, or you can opt for the highly experienced plastic surgeon with years of expertise. In most cases, people would understandably choose the specialist—the surgeon—who possesses the skills and knowledge to ensure the job is done correctly and efficiently.

As you diligently research companies to install a Velux skylight for your home or business, you may encounter terms like "Velux Certified Installer" and "Velux Skylight Specialist." It's easy to assume that a Skylight Specialist would be the superior choice, but that's not always the case. When it comes to these Velux installer titles, the key distinction lies in the percentage of work dedicated to installing Velux products. A Skylight Specialist or Signature Skylight Specialist company commits to a high percentage of their work involving the selling and installation of Velux products. However, if you examine Velux's website, you'll notice that there aren't many Velux Skylight Specialists. Most companies working with Velux are Velux Certified Installers.  VELUX describes a Certified Installer as "a company that focuses on a variety of products as well as VELUX products. This company will have completed VELUX's certification program and will have sufficient knowledge to assist customers in VELUX projects."

Oh no! A leak. You've just noticed a dreaded drip from your skylight. But wait, before you panic, let's consider that it might not necessarily be a leak. Especially if it's cold outside, there's a possibility that what you're experiencing is condensation. Think about that cold can of pop you take out of the fridge on a hot day. After a few minutes, moisture starts to collect on the outside of the can. That's condensation in action. The same principle applies to your windows and skylight. When the relative humidity in the air is too high for the outdoor temperature, condensation forms. So, first things first, check the humidity levels in your space. If it's higher than the recommended amount, consider using a dehumidifier to reduce the moisture in the air. If your humidity is within range or if the drip persists even after using a dehumidifier, then it's time to have your skylight looked at by a professional.
