Skylight Work Rooted in Fort Collins
Mike Ellison operates Fort Collins Skylight Experts from the shop at 1093 W Elizabeth St, handling Skylight Leak Repair and Skylight Replacement across Larimer County. With deep local roots, the business focuses on homes in Old Town, Downtown, Prospect Park, and Harmony, where older housing stock often shows wear around skylights after years of exposure to the semi-arid climate's temperature swings.
Winters bring freezing conditions that can force water through aging seals near Colorado State University and around Old Town Square, while summer heat near Horsetooth Reservoir adds expansion stress. Mike responds to calls from Fort Collins and nearby Loveland and Windsor by inspecting roofs on site, matching repair methods to each property's age and pitch rather than applying one-size solutions.
The crew keeps standard hours at the Elizabeth Street address so homeowners can stop by for straightforward discussions about their skylights before any work begins.
I started Fort Collins Skylight Experts after years handling roof work across Larimer County and seeing how freeze-thaw cycles in our semi-arid climate wreck skylights on older homes in Old Town and near Colorado State University. With roots right here in Fort Collins, I opened the shop at 1093 W Elizabeth St to focus on skylight leak repair and skylight replacement for houses in Downtown, Prospect Park, and Harmony, plus jobs that come up in Loveland and Windsor. We're open Mon–Fri 8am–6pm, Sat 9am–2pm.

Testimonials
What Fort Collins, CO Customers Say
“My kitchen skylight started dripping during the heavy spring rains near the Poudre River trail. Fort Collins Skylight Experts replaced the old flashing and resealed the frame to the roof deck. The leaks stopped completely and the ceiling drywall dried out without further damage.”
“Heavy winter snow load cracked the acrylic dome on my south-facing skylight. They removed the damaged unit, installed a new tempered-glass model with better snow guards, and matched the existing roof shingles. No more cracks or interior moisture since the last big storm.”
“The skylight over my living room let in too much heat during summer and caused ice dams along the roof edge in winter. They swapped it for a double-pane unit with low-E coating and added proper insulation around the curb. The room stays comfortable now and my heating bills dropped noticeably.”
