Why We Like Tam Industry Skylights

 Tam Skylights, Quality You Can Trust


After working in the roofing industry for some time and fielding calls from homeowners with leaking skylights we discovered that there are a few central problems surrounding most skylight leaks. Most brands of skylights have have great construction but the corners are caulked. The caulked corners can begin to break down between the 5th and 10th year of installation due to weather exposure. Each skylight can cost more than $350 each to replace.

This is why I like Tam Industry skylights. Tam skylights have welded corners. Welded corners eliminate the possibility of leaking and unnecessary replacement. Tam industry started in 1970 and is a great local company serving the skylight and solar tube needs of the Pacific Northwest. For more information please visit their website at www.tamskylights.com. Here are some examples of the skylights they offer.
















I particularly like the operable skylights. They open and close easily and are a great way to allow fresh air into your home. Here is a specification chart showing their sizes and the type of curb that should be built to install the skylight on.
