"Fresh Air" skylights open to bring air and natural light into your home. A rain sensor on the solar and electric models automatically closes the skylight when rain is detected. With our No Leak Promise, we keep water and worries out and sunlight flowing in.

The VELUX No Leak Fixed Skylight is an economical choice for visually expanding areas such as hallways, stairwells, and other closed-in dark spaces. This creates a more spacious and lighter-filled home!
Round tubular skylights are ideal for small, dark spaces like closets and hallways. Our VELUX Sun Tunnel Skylight features low-profile and flat glass models. Offering a sleek appearance that integrates with the roof line of your home.
Installation happens in two worry-free phases.
1. Roof Top
Depending on the circumstances, such as roof pitch, interior light shaft depth and shape, and weather conditions, installations can take between half a day and three days. The rooftop portion of the installation includes cutting the hole and fastening the skylight to the roof.
Once the skylight is secure, we then use three layers of protection to prevent water intrusion and integrate the skylight into your roofing material. A No-Leak skylight completes the rooftop portion of the installation.
The three layers of protection include:
1. Factory-applied foam roof deck seal.
2. Proprietary waterproof membrane.
3. Model-specific metal flashing kits.
2. Interior
It takes about half a day per skylight to complete the interior portion of the installation, which includes drywall work and painting. The type of ceiling in your home—vaulted or flat—will also affect the amount of time it takes to complete the interior portion of the installation.
Flat ceilings require more drywall work than vaulted ceilings. If you have a flat ceiling, your installer will use drywall to build a shaft to the skylight through the attic area to direct the daylight into the room. Your installer will finish and paint the light shaft to match the surrounding ceiling area.
1. Rooftop
For Sun Tunnel skylights, the installer will use a ladder to get up on the roof. They will then cut a hole through the sheathing and install the top collar. They will finish this portion of the work by installing the upper part of the reflective tunnel, the lens, and the flashing.
2. Interior
For Sun Tunnel skylights, the installer will cut a hole in the ceiling, install the lower portion of the reflective tunnel between the rooftop and the ceiling, and seal the tunnel seams with airtight tape. Finally, they will install the diffuser and trim ring in the ceiling. If the sun is out, your new light will be on!
When an off-the-shelf skylight won't do, we offer custom-designed & fabricated skylights.
We offer skylight repair and replacement services. We recommend replacing your skylights when you re-roof. It's the most cost-efficient way, and it allows you to synchronize your roof and skylight warranties.
1: Remove Roofing
The first step is to simply remove the roofing material around the skylight.
2. Repair Damage
If there is any damage to the roof sheathing, it will need to be replaced before the new skylight work can begin. If a new skylight frame is needed, we will fabricate and install that. Then everything is wrapped with a special waterproof material.
3. Install Metal Components
Metal flashing components are then installed on all four sides of the skylight opening. It is now ready to receive the actual skylight. The rooftop work is completed by replacing the roofing material.
