Got questions? We’ve got straight answers.
Not with us. We use Velux’s No-Leak Skylight system, which includes three layers of protection: advanced flashing, a moisture barrier, and Velux’s 10-Year No-Leak Warranty. Combine that with our expert installation, and you can rest easy.
Every new Velux skylight now comes with a FREE factory-installed white room darkening solar-powered blind—no wiring, no fuss. It improves energy efficiency, blocks out light when needed, and is operated by remote control.
Yes. If you choose a solar-powered skylight, you get wireless remote operation, complete with a rain sensor that closes the skylight automatically at the first sign of bad weather.
Absolutely. In fact, it’s the best time to do it. Adding skylights during a roof replacement ensures seamless integration and can reduce labor costs. We’ll help you plan the ideal layout for your home.
Yes—and here’s why. Replacing your skylight during a roof replacement is the smartest, most cost-effective time to do it. Your roof deck is already exposed, which means we can install the new skylight with proper flashing and sealing for a clean, watertight fit—without disturbing your brand-new roof later.
Old skylights often develop wear, fogging, or leaks over time. Even if they seem fine now, they may not last as long as your new roof. Upgrading now ensures everything is on the same life cycle, minimizes future labor costs, and gives you the added benefit of Velux’s latest technology and a 10-Year No-Leak Warranty.
In short: do it once, do it right—and never worry about it again.
Most installations are completed in a single day, depending on roof complexity and how many skylights you’re adding. We’ll provide a clear timeline and keep your home protected throughout the process.
