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 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*

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.

    This year, I needed a shingle roof replacement. After 7 estimates, I settled on Southern Arizona Roof Associates. Everyone I had contact with was professional, knowledgeable and wonderful to work with. Please know that I'm a detail oriented consumer, so a few venting options were considered. Special kudos go to Dan, Melanie and Rusty for providing excellent service and the patience needed to deal with me. When I had a question or concern, these were answered in a timely manner. The roofing crew was great and worked efficiently to get my roof done in 3 days. And they were really nice, polite guys! I highly recommend S AZ Roof Associates. I think you'll be very happy with the outcome.
