Trouble Free Skylights
Company Overview
Licensed skylight repair expert offering operable tailored skylights along with motorized shades and internal blinds. Our team is experts in waterproofing.
Founded in 1978, Trouble-Free Skylights was launched after we encountered requests to fix recently installed skylights which had been carpenters without skylight expertise.
In that instant, I realized that this industry demanded better practices! Since then, we have dedicated ourselves to skylights.
Our services include setup, maintenance, and resolving skylights throughout the Los Angeles County area.
In our gallery, you can explore images from numerous projects we have executed. Additionally, in the ""From Our Customers"" section, you can find testimonials of satisfied clients.
Especially in the current times of growing energy costs and sustainability concerns, having a skylight is beneficial for many reasons, not limited to the beautiful lighting quality a skylight brings to any space.
Please reach out to connect with us for all your skylight needs.
Warm regards,
Derrick

Darryl S.I hired a contractor to install my skylights and it leaked within the first year of installing it and he tried fixing it, didn't know the problem. After paying a roofer to determine the leak, they couldn't pinpoint the cause. Trouble Free Skylights came out and knew the problem within an hour and spent an entire day Saturday to fix the problem. Basically what happened is the contractor didn't clean the roof before lying down the torchdown material. They re-did all the roofing 24 inches out, and it's now leak-free.
Christine L.I had to change my old skylight; so company offered a velux which I was carged doubled that the retail price on internet. no need to have it custom: it was a regular ile;
I did imagine it was a lot of work. in 2 hours of labor the skylight was replaced by a great worker but it costs me 2,500 dollars. I thought it was too high. contact the office. no answer.
It is a rip-off.
way too expensive; misleading as it was a lot of work .
feel bad about it.
Save your time and energy and pick a different company. Terrible service. Debris left in skylight. Ignoring calls, no one shows up for scheduled appointments. Just a mess.
Nina K.I scheduled an appointment with this company back in September. They had to reschedule my appointment and that was no problem for me. They rescheduled for October 18th at 10am. No one showed up. I called the company, and they apologized and said their employee was out of town. I'm not sure why they didn't inform me. So we rescheduled again for November 20 at 10am. No one showed up once again. I have now set aside two mornings for this company to show up. I'm definitely taking my business elsewhere.
Very pleased with he results. The skylight looks like it has always been there.
Blanca D.Informative and patient with our questions. Thorough with explaining the process of installation of skylights.
Quite disappointed with this company -- I scheduled that they were to come out and look at my leaking skylight 10 days ago, they were supposed to come out today between 2-3 pm. Today when I followed up to confirm that they were coming they couldn't confirm my appointment and then called me back to say I was not on their sales calendar. So I've waited 10 days in torrential rains and now have to start over. They also told me they are not prioritizing skylight repairs as they are busy with roof jobs due to the rains. Great that their business is doing great although I would have appreciated that information 10 days ago. I am taking my business elsewhere.
Derrick and his team were great. I hired them to install 4 skylights in my house and they did a fantastic, very professional job. Not only was it done with close coordination with me on the look/feel, but they did not cut any corners and took extra steps to be sure it was all done correctly. We had major rains soon after installation and everything was just fine - they really took care of the integrity of the roof. The crew was also very friendly. I would definitely recommend them!
Joseph Y.After many years, I finally decided to replaced my old dome skylight which was aging and horrible in energy savings due to the heat in the summer time and cold air in the winter time. After the installation, I called them and let them know that I still had the heat problem. This is when Derrick (the owner) came to my rescue! He came personally the next day to install another layer to reflect the heat away from the skylight's glass which did the trick... After several days of heatwave, it was much better. My kids are actually studying under the skylight with natural light. Before we replaced the skylight, everyone stayed away from the it as it was too hot in the summer time. I highly recommend these guys! They will go the extra mile to make sure that you are satisfied and happy with everything.
P.S. Installation guys were super nice and friendly!!!
I love my solar ventilating skylight!! Stewart was the sales rep and was great to work with. Nick was the installer and completed the job within a day to perfection. And Claudia is also very responsive. Would definitely recommend.
