Bring in the Light with Roof Monster’s VELUX Skylight Installation

Roof Monster is a VELUX Certified Installer, which means our team is trained on manufacturer-specified installation and flashing methods for VELUX skylights — the details that keep a skylight watertight for the life of your roof. Whether you’re adding natural light to a dark room or replacing an aging, leaking skylight, we handle the roofing and flashing work as one integrated job, not a bolt-on addition after the fact.

Why Choose Roof Monster for Your Skylight Installation?

A skylight is only as good as its flashing. Here’s what you get when Roof Monster installs yours:

VELUX Certified Installer:

We’re trained on VELUX’s manufacturer-specified installation and flashing methods, not generic skylight installation.

Roofing and Flashing, One Crew:

The same team that installs your skylight ties the flashing into your roofing system, so nothing gets lost between separate contractors.

Leak-Focused Installation:

Most skylight problems trace back to flashing, not the glass. We treat the flashing detail as the most important part of the job.

Built for Capital Region Roofs:

We install and flash skylights to hold up through snow load, ice damming, and freeze-thaw cycles, not just fair-weather installs.

Signs Your Skylight Needs Attention

Skylight problems are usually easier to catch early than to fix after they’ve caused damage. Here’s what we look for:

Water Stains Around the Frame

Discoloration or staining on the drywall around a skylight usually points to a flashing leak, not a problem with the glass itself.

Ice Damming Near the Skylight

Ice buildup around a skylight’s flashing is a common source of slow leaks that show up well after the storm that caused them.

Condensation or Fogging

Fogging between panes on an older skylight often means a failed seal, not just humidity in the room.

Cracked or Discolored Glazing

UV exposure and age can cloud or crack skylight glazing, reducing both light and weather protection.

Difficulty Opening or Closing

Vented skylights that stick, won’t seal fully, or feel loose are worth having inspected before they become a leak point.

Visible Gaps in the Flashing

Flashing that’s pulled away, cracked, or was never properly step-flashed into the roofing is the single most common cause of skylight leaks we find.

The Roof Monster Advantage for Skylights

When you choose Roof Monster for your skylight, you’re choosing a VELUX Certified Installer who treats flashing as seriously as the glass. Here’s why homeowners trust us:

  • VELUX Certified: Our installers are certified on VELUX’s own installation standards, not just general skylight experience.
  • Flashing-First Approach: We treat flashing integration with your roofing system as the most important part of every skylight job.
  • One Job, Not Two Contractors: Your roofing and your skylight are installed and flashed by the same crew, on the same timeline.
  • Straightforward Pricing: You get a clear, itemized estimate before work starts — no surprise add-ons once the crew is on-site.

How We Handle Your Skylight Project

Our skylight process is straightforward from first call to final walkthrough:
1. Free On-Site Assessment

We evaluate the room, the roof structure, and where a skylight makes sense — or inspect an existing skylight that’s causing problems.

2. VELUX Product Selection

We help you choose the right VELUX skylight for the space, including fixed and vented options where they apply.

3. Certified Installation & Flashing

Installation and flashing follow VELUX’s manufacturer specifications, integrated directly into your roofing system.

4. Final Walkthrough

We walk the finished installation with you and confirm the flashing, trim, and interior finish are complete.
