Skylight Installation
Sunset Roofing is proud to be a VELUX Certified Installer. For more than 35 years we have protected homes across Rochester and Western New York with quality roofing, and now we bring that same craftsmanship to skylight installation and replacement. Whether you want to brighten a dark room, add fresh air to a stuffy space, or replace an old skylight that has started to leak, our team installs VELUX skylights the right way, as part of a watertight roof system.
Skylight Installation in Rochester, NY
A skylight brings far more daylight into a room than a vertical window of the same size, because it faces the open sky instead of the neighbor's house or the trees in your yard. That makes skylights one of the most effective ways to transform kitchens, bathrooms, hallways, attics, and living rooms that never get enough light. During the long, gray Western New York winters, that extra natural light makes a real difference in how your home looks and feels.
Because a skylight is cut directly into your roof, installation is a roofing job first. As a roofing contractor and VELUX Certified Installer, we handle the framing, flashing, underlayment, and shingle work together so your new skylight looks great and stays dry for decades.
Skylight Services We Offer
New Skylight Installation
Add natural light where you need it most. We help you choose the right size, placement, and model for the room, then install it with VELUX engineered flashing kits designed to work with your roof's pitch and shingle type.
Skylight Replacement
Older skylights are a common source of roof leaks, drafts, and condensation. If your skylight is foggy, cracked, leaking, or more than 20 years old, we can replace it with a modern, energy efficient VELUX unit. Replacement is especially smart when you are already planning a new roof, since the work can be completed at the same time.
Skylights With a New Roof
Planning a roof replacement? It is the ideal moment to add or upgrade skylights. We install them as part of your new Owens Corning roof system, so every layer is tied together properly and you avoid paying for the same area of roof to be opened twice.
Fresh Air and Solar Powered Skylights
VELUX venting skylights open to let hot, humid air escape from kitchens and bathrooms. Solar powered models open and close with a remote control and include a rain sensor that closes them automatically when the weather turns. Light filtering and blackout blinds are available too.
