Installation Process

Expert installation made easy.

VELUX® skylight systems and Sun Tunnel® Skylights can be installed in flat or vaulted ceilings in two worry-free phases: rooftop and interior. The pros at HP Roofing LLC will recommend where skylight systems should be installed, so you can reap the maximum benefit from the natural light and fresh air they provide.

Installation Types

The Room

VELUX-trained pros 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.

The Rooftop

VELUX-trained pros 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.
2-3+ Days Total*

The Room

VELUX-trained pros will cut a hole in the ceiling to install the lower portion of the reflective tube between the roof and ceiling.

The Rooftop

VELUX-trained pros 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 Hours*

The Room

There may be a small amount of interior drywall work depending on your replacement situation, but the majority of the replacement process will take place on the roof.

The Rooftop

VELUX-trained pros will get measurements from your existing skylights to ensure your replacements are a perfect fit, then they’ll replace your skylights

    HP Roofing sent a crew to our house to install a new roof and 3 skylights. Everything was done competently and on schedule. Luis and his crew were just remarkable. They cleaned up all the debris from the old roof, and when they left there was not a single piece of debris on our property. I highly recommend HP Roofing. Everyone from this company is a pleasure to work with: Jeff, Gordie,and Luis. All of them pros.

    I contracted HP Roofing to install two skylights in the ceiling of my condo to provide more light and ventilation. The whole process was smooth and seamless. I worked with Jeff Aker to arrange to project. Gordie Brown was the site manager. Both were very professional and they performed the work in a timely manner as promised. The work was excellent. They kept the place clean. I was very happy with their work!

    Highly recommend HP Roofing. Installed an asphalt shingle roof with a 3" standing seam snow slide along the cutters, and replaced skylights. Job was done professionally and in a timely fashion. Couldn't be more pleased.
