What should you expect during installation?

VELUX® skylights and Sun Tunnel® skylights can be installed in flat or vaulted ceilings in two worry-free phases: rooftop and interior. We can recommend where skylights should be installed, so you can reap the maximum benefit from the natural light and fresh air they provide.

Skylight Installation

1.

Rooftop Installation

Installers will cut a hole and fasten the VELUX skylight to the roof with Three layers of protection to prevent leaks. Depending on the circumstances such as roof pitch and weather, the rooftop phase can take between one and three days.
2.

Interior Installation

Installers will come inside for interior finish work and possible painting. If you have a flat ceiling, your installer will use drywall or other finish material to build a shaft from the skylight to direct the daylight into the room. This phase takes around half a day per skylight.
3.

Beautifully Transformed

Installers may paint the light shaft to match the surrounding ceiling. The complete installation process will be mess- and worry-free.

Sun Tunnel Skylight Installation

1.

Rooftop Installation

Installers will cut a hole in the roof and install the top collar, the upper portion of the reflective tunnel, the lens and the flashing.
2.

Interior Installation

Installers will cut a hole in the ceiling to install the lower portion of the reflective tube between the roof and ceiling.
3.

Beautifully Transformed

Then, they will install the diffuser and trim ring and seal the tube. The complete installation process will be mess- and worry-free.

What To Expect

Is there an ideal time to replace my current skylights?

We recommend replacing your skylights when you reroof. It's the most cost-efficient way, and it allows you to synchronize your roof and skylight warranties.
