Portland’s long stretches of gray sky make daylighting more than a luxury—it is an energy-saving necessity. A properly installed skylight transforms dim rooms, reduces electric-lighting costs, and adds resale value. CountBricks combines decades of residential construction experience with AI-powered estimating to deliver the most accurate, stress-free skylight Portland solutions.
Frequent rain, fluctuating temperatures, and seasonal moss growth can turn a poorly flashed skylight into a leak point. CountBricks technicians are Portland natives who understand local roof pitches, snow-load codes, and venting requirements. Our AI platform references regional climate data in real time, so every estimate reflects the precise materials and labor needed to keep water outside and comfort inside.
1. You start a voice conversation in the CountBricks app—no forms or spreadsheets.
2. Our AI interprets your spoken details, auto-detects roof type, and sizes your skylight from uploaded photos or blueprints.
3. Real-time material pricing, task durations, and labor rates are pulled into an itemized estimate.
4. You receive a shareable PDF quote and a web-ready invoice within minutes, all branded with your company logo or household project name.
Pro Tip: Add the optional “rain-sensor vent kit” during the conversation and the AI instantly recalculates cost, permitting fees, and timeline.
• Fixed curb-mounted glass for unbeatable weather protection
• Venting skylights with moisture sensors for kitchens and bathrooms
• Solar-powered operable models eligible for federal tax credits
• Flat-roof skylight wells for modern ADUs and rooftop decks
Skylight unit price: Brand, glass type, and special coatings can swing costs by 30%.
Roof slope and material: Composition shingles install faster than metal, lowering labor totals.
Interior finish work: Light shafts, drywall returns, and custom trim add comfort and character but require additional hours.
Permits and inspections: Multnomah County requires specific flashing diagrams, all pre-loaded in CountBricks AI for correct fee calculations.
