Gulfport Roof Pros provides professional skylights in Gulfport, MS for residential and commercial properties across the Mississippi Gulf Coast. We install and repair skylights and we will still try to talk you out of adding one. A skylight is a permanently self-funded penetration in a market where penetrations are the repairs nobody's policy pays for, and that is a straightforward reason to think twice.
Consider how a skylight leak is treated. Arriving during a named-storm window it is rain loss under a percentage deductible, so it is your money. Arriving outside that window it is almost always read as maintenance or wear, so it is your money again. There is no version of a skylight leak on this coast that a carrier funds, which makes the decision purely a comfort-versus-cost trade.
If you want the light, buy the right unit. Curb-mounted deck-sealed units with a factory flashing kit matched to your covering, laminated glass rather than acrylic, and a warranty from a manufacturer that will still exist in fifteen years. The old plastic bubble units on many Gulfport ranch houses are past service life, and re-sealing one is money spent on a countdown.
Installation is the whole of it. A skylight leaks at the flashing, essentially never through the glass. Head flashing lapped under the course above, step flashing up both sides piece by piece, apron at the sill lapped over the covering, self-adhered membrane wrapping the curb before any metal goes on. Sealant is a detail, never a method, and a unit set in sealant instead of flashing leaks on a schedule you could set a calendar by.
Replacement in place is usually better value than repair. Where a unit has passed fifteen years and the flashing must come apart regardless, the labor is nearly identical and what you get is a new seal, new glass and a warranty rather than a repaired countdown to the same conversation. We quote both side by side so you can see the gap for yourself and decide without us in the room.
And we quote removal honestly, because it is frequently the right call. Decking the opening in, tying the sheathing to the rafters properly, insulating the bay and finishing the ceiling below removes a maintenance item permanently. On a north slope over a hallway that nobody looks up in, that is the better purchase, and we would rather write that quote than sell you a fourth reseal.
Our licensed and insured team brings the right materials and equipment to every job — percentage named-storm deductible calculated against the Coverage A dwelling limit, six-nail fastening set in the manufacturer's marked nail line, cap-nailed synthetic underlayment over bare sheathing, wide drip edge lapped over the underlayment at the rake, starter strip with factory adhesive run at rakes and eaves, 24-gauge standing seam panels on floating clips — and backs the work with a written workmanship warranty. We serve Gulfport and nearby communities including Biloxi, Gautier, Ocean Springs, Long Beach.

Materials, equipment and how we do skylights
The difference between skylights that lasts and skylights that gets redone in three years is almost always preparation and materials, not the finish you see on day one. We work with percentage named-storm deductible calculated against the Coverage A dwelling limit, six-nail fastening set in the manufacturer's marked nail line, cap-nailed synthetic underlayment over bare sheathing, wide drip edge lapped over the underlayment at the rake, spec them to the job instead of to the invoice, and write the material grades into the free estimate so you know exactly what you are buying.
Every Gulfport job runs the same way: site walk and measurements, written scope and fixed price, protection of the surrounding area, then the work itself with a daily clean-up. Years of roofing work in the Mississippi Gulf Coast means we have already met whatever your property is going to throw at us — awkward access, older construction, an HOA with opinions.
