Is $4,700 to replace two skylights a fair price?

Project Details

I recently had my roof replaced with aluminum roofing. Immediately (within 2 days of completion), a leak developed at the skylights after heavy rain. The skylights are about 10-15 years old and were not replaced at the time of the roof replacement. The roofing company said the skylight is the source of the leak and not their responsibility, but offered to replace the skylights. I'm asking if the quote is fair and if there's an advantage from a warranty/liability standpoint to have the same people who did our roof do the skylight.

Work performed for the skylight replacement in 2022: - Cover the carpet in the room where the skylight is located and set up dust collection equipment. - Remove shingles as needed around the skylight. - Remove and dispose of the existing skylight and water damaged sheetrock on the ceiling. - Prep the rough opening to receive the new skylight. - Install a new Velux non-operable skylight with a solar-powered blind. - Install the flashing kit that comes with the new skylight. - Reinstall the original shingles and new shingles if needed.
