Generally, it is less expensive for unlicensed and uninsured bidders to do jobs.
The Solatube brand used to have a reputation as being the most efficient for reflectivity.
here is a link to help you select some of the options.https://www.solatube.<wbr>com/ (https://www.solatube.com/)
I would stress the importance of making a perfectly airtight seal on the sheetrock and throughout the tube.
Wrapping the sun tube in fsk will also make it much more energy efficient.
You may want to look at houses that have them poking up on the roof to be sure you enjoy the exterior appearance.
Some neighborhoods in Petaluma have banned them for visual aesthetic quality reasons.
I have a nice circle cutter for marking and scoring before going through the sheetrock if anybody needs one.
I can call you when I wrap up my current job
and then come by.
The sun tube costs will depend on the quantity and options you choose.
My labor guess would be 400 for the first one and 300 for the second and $250 for the third one.
Solatube 160DS (10" diameter) -- $619* installed; Solatube 290DS (14" diameter) -- $739* installed;
plus 15% for expendables
