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 Skylight Solution Systems 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
1 Day Total*
*Time estimates are based on averages. Project duration varies based on its complexity.

Bought an old house in 2022. Owners had drywalled up a skylight. We had a leak in the skylight after torrential rains and because more rain was forecasted we contacted many roofers who said they were too busy. We contacted Skylight Solutions and Bob responded right away and sent Rocky to assess the situation. Total mess on the roof around the skylight. It should have been removed and the area roofed over. Rocky came back around 6pm after setting up their area for the Home Show this weekend 10/10-12/25. Caulked all the cracks in the roof and around the skylight to get us through the coming rains. We will have them come back to remove the skylight and roof the area after the Home Show. If you’re going to the Home Show check out their booth. Really good people to deal with and know their stuff. Highly Recommend.

Our roofing company recommended Skylight Solution Systems. We got three bids to replace our skylights and their price was the best. We were really happy with their service. The install team was great! They were very conscientious and took great care to leave our home clean. The install was quick and they arrived on time. I highly recommend this company.

We were getting a new roof and the company quote for a skylight seemed high, so a friend told us to call Skylight Solutions Systems. Bob was so responsive to our call, gave us a quote for literally 1/3 of the roofing company’s cost and was ready to install as soon as we wanted. When our roofers were delayed, Bob was awesome even though we had to reschedule a few times. Finally, today was the day and look at the difference! It’s completely changed the look and feel of the upstairs. Rocky (our installer) was friendly, clean, and FAST! Start to finish install time was almost exactly 45 minutes. I would recommend Skylight Solutions Systems without reservation.

We had a really good experience with Skylight Solutions Systems. We have used them for skylights twice now and have been really happy with the final product. The skylights add so much light to our home. I appreciate that they made sure we were completely satisfied with how things turned out and I would recommend using them.

About 8 years ago we upgraded 3 skylights to VELUX windows. All was great until we had our roof replaced a few months ago. Roofers removed and replaced the skylights and made a real mess of the job. I contacted Skylight Solutions Systems on a Friday afternoon and received a response in a matter of minutes. They had two technicians stop by to inspect before noon the next day (Saturday!). They checked out the work the roofers had done and took videos and pictures that they shared with us and explained in detail what the problems were and what it will take to fix them. We were very pleased with their response. They were friendly, professional and knowledgeable. We're awaiting their estimate and plan on having Skylight Solutions make the needed repairs.

The owner, Bob, came to do a bid. He gave me an accurate price and an accurate schedule. His technicians showed up when he said they would. They were all polite and competent. They spread tarps over my floors and counters before beginning the work--after they left I think my kitchen was actually cleaner than before! They had the main part of the work done in one day and the drywall was done the next day. My skylights are beautiful! These pictures aren't the best, and I haven't painted yet. I highly recommend this company.

This company is first class! All the employees were polite, clean, and friendly. We had 2 solar skylights installed and the entire process was completed in less than 2 days. They completely cleaned up after the job was done. There was no dirt or dust left behind. I would love to recommend this company to anyone.
-
The final product is beautiful. Chris did a great job matching our old ceiling texture. I would recommend this company to anyone who is looking for some skylights.

Bob and his crew were fantastic new roof and 5 added skylights. All done in less then a week and we could not be happier. If you are looking to have it done these are the people to do it.

I had a 10” Sun Tunnel made by VELUX installed in a dark bathroom for $700. It has brought a lot of light into the space. I think the quality of the light looks more like that from an LED though rather than sunlight coming from a window. That is a little disappointing. Hopefully, I’ll get used to that in the coming days. No issues with the installers. Communication with the small company was not great though. Usually had to leave a message and wait for them to call back. Sometimes, the voice mail was full. That isn’t acceptable. There was a lack of communication around the installation day and time as well. No proactive communication from the company. I had to keep calling and was about to cancel the whole effort out of frustration. It was Monday (no product) then Tuesday (no communication), then Wednesday (weather) and finally was done on Thursday. It’s an area that needs real improvement.

We love our Sun Tunnel and at a great price! Thanks Bob!
