To rebed the portlights, at least the most common ones requires the mounting screws to be removed from the interior side.
There are two halves of the portlight, interior and exterior. They need to be separated and removed. Mine had a bead of caulk applied from the exterior that needed removed. Also removing the exterior piece requires some work as its caulked to the hull of the boat. Razor blades are your friend.
Once removed, they need cleaned of the old silicon.
As long as there isn't any moisture or rot, reinstalling is the opposite process.
I watched a couple of YouTube videos before I did mine.
No idea how much a yard would charge as I did mine myself.
