Homeowners love the natural light and architectural flair that a skylight brings. Yet leaks, seal failures, cracked panes and outdated flashing can quickly turn that asset into a liability. Search data shows that queries for “repair skylight window” spike after major rain events and during spring remodeling season. For builders, remodelers and roofing specialists, that means two things: a growing service demand and a need for fast, accurate estimating. CountBricks is positioned to deliver both.
CountBricks combines real-time voice conversation, AI-powered material databases and blueprint takeoffs to generate precise estimates in minutes. Instead of juggling spreadsheets and manufacturer spec sheets, you simply describe the skylight’s dimensions, roof pitch and damage over the phone. Our engine instantly
• Selects the correct curb or deck mount kit
• Calculates flashing materials by roof type
• Factors in regional labor rates and travel time
• Outputs a branded proposal ready to email or sign on-site
1. Inspect the skylight, snap photos and call the CountBricks voice line.
2. Answer guided prompts about frame material, glass type and surrounding roof system.
3. Receive an itemized estimate on your device while still on the ladder.
4. Approve or tweak line items, then send the final quote to the homeowner for e-signature.
Glass Replacement
Tempered or laminated glass size directly impacts price. CountBricks references current distributor pricing so you never underbid after a sudden glass surcharge.
Flashing & Sealant
Metal choice (aluminum vs. copper), underlayment type and climate zone affect material amounts. Our AI engine adjusts quantities automatically.
Interior Finish Work
Drywall repair, paint and trim vary by ceiling build-out. CountBricks attaches local finish-carpentry rates for a true turnkey number.
• Water stains around drywall light wells – re-flash and upgrade ice-and-water shield

• Drafts in winter – add insulation baffle, reseal curb corners and install new weatherstrip
• Photograph every existing fastener pattern before removal for exact reinstallation alignment
• Pre-flash test with a garden hose to confirm leak path before opening the roof
• Use high-temp butyl tape on metal roofs to prevent dissimilar-metal corrosion
• Apply UV-resistant sealant rated for 50-year flexibility to accommodate thermal movement
Mid-project surprises happen—rotten sheathing, undersized headers, hidden electrical. With CountBricks, you can generate a voice-activated change order on the spot. The homeowner sees clear new line items and signs digitally, keeping cash flow steady and documentation airtight.

Most contractors lose profit on skylight work not because of labor inefficiency but because of material oversights—ordering an entire roll of membrane when only eight feet is needed or forgetting the interior trim touch-ups. CountBricks eradicates those blind spots.
1. Dynamic Waste Factors: The platform applies roof-pitch multipliers and roll widths to keep membrane waste below 5%—far leaner than the industry average of 12%.
2. Regional Price Refresh: Material costs update nightly. When aluminum flashing jumps 9% overnight, your next estimate reflects reality, safeguarding profits.
3. Task Bundling: CountBricks groups minor activities—like shop cleanup or attic vacuuming—into pre-set assemblies so you bill for every minute worked.
