FAQ

We get asked the same things, and we've got the answers

What types of skylights do you install?

We install everything you'd need to get natural light into your home. Fixed skylights, opening windows, sun tunnels, solar-powered options. All Velux products, plus Illume for situations where traditional skylights won't work.
ā€
Velux Fixed Skylights
Roof windows that don't open. Good for living rooms, hallways, stairwells, anywhere you want light but don't need ventilation. Double-glazed to keep heat out in summer.
ā€
Velux Opening Skylights
Manual, electric, or solar-powered windows that actually open. Perfect for kitchens, bathrooms, bedrooms where you want fresh air. Can add rain sensors, blinds, flyscreens, or smart home controls.
ā€
Velux Sun Tunnels

Small reflective tubes that funnel light from your roof to the ceiling. Great for bathrooms, laundries, walk-in robes, hallways. More affordable than full skylights. Start around $900.
ā€
Illume Solar Skylights
LED panels that simulate daylight, powered by a roof-mounted solar collector. No roof penetration needed. Good for multi-storey homes, flats, or anywhere a traditional skylight won't fit.
ā€
Custom Installations
Oversized Velux units, skylight clusters, cathedral ceiling installations, anything that needs a bit more planning. We handle the lot: cutting, framing, flashing, plastering, painting.

How much does installation cost?

Depends on the skylight type, your roof, and whether we're cutting through one storey or two.
ā€
Velux Sun Tunnels: $900 to $1,600
Quick install, minimal structural work. Price varies based on roof type and tunnel length.
ā€
Velux Fixed Skylights: From $2,300
Includes skylight, flashing kit, cutting, framing, plastering, painting. Price goes up with larger sizes or if you add blinds, double glazing, acoustic insulation.
ā€
Velux Opening Skylights: From $2,800

Electric and solar-powered models cost more. Add-ons like rain sensors and remote controls increase the price.
ā€
Custom or Complex Jobs: Higher
Double-storey homes, tiled roofs, cathedral ceilings, anything requiring scaffolding or extra framing will add to the cost.
ā€
We give free on-site quotes across Melbourne. No hidden costs, no surprises.

How long does it take?

Most Velux skylight jobs are done in one day if the roof's easy to access and it's a standard size (550x980mm).
ā€
Sun Tunnels: 2 to 5 hours
Straightforward. In and out.
ā€
Standard Velux Skylights: 1 full day
Cutting, flashing, framing, plastering, cleanup. Single-storey homes with tile or metal roofs.
ā€
Complex Jobs: 2 to 3 days
Double-storey homes needing scaffolding, or jobs with full plastering and painting. Drying time between stages adds a day.
ā€
We handle everything in-house: carpentry, framing, flashing, plastering, sanding, cleanup. No waiting on other trades.

Can you install on any roof?

Pretty much. Tile, metal, slate, flat roofs, pitched roofs. We've worked on all of them.
ā€
Tiled Roofs: Standard. We cut through, flash properly, replace tiles around the skylight.
ā€
Metal Roofs (Colorbond): Easy. Clean cut, Velux flashing kit, weatherproof seal.
ā€
Flat Roofs: Velux has specific models for low-pitch and flat applications. We install these regularly.
ā€
Slate or Unusual Materials: Takes more care, but we've done it. Custom flashing and extra sealing.
ā€
Double-Storey Homes: Require scaffolding and roof safety systems. Adds time but no issue.
ā€
If your roof's in bad shape, we'll tell you upfront. We're not installing skylights on roofs that'll leak anyway.

What's your guarantee?

Every skylight we install is guaranteed leak-free. If it leaks, we come back and fix it. No charge.
ā€
Velux products come with a 10-year manufacturer warranty. Our installation workmanship is backed by our own guarantee.
ā€
We've been doing this long enough to know what causes leaks: bad flashing, poor framing, shortcuts. We don't take shortcuts. Every skylight is structurally sound, properly flashed, and built to last.
ā€
If something's not right, we fix it.

Do they need maintenance?

Not much. Clean them every couple of years and you're good.
ā€
Cleaning: Wipe down the glass, clear any debris from the flashing. That's it.
ā€
Opening Mechanisms: If you've got electric or solar-powered skylights, the motors are sealed and don't need servicing.
ā€
Seals and Flashing: Velux products are designed to last 20+ years without maintenance. If you're getting leaks, it's usually an installation problem, not a product problem.
ā€
Sun tunnels need even less. Maybe dust the diffuser once a year.

How much natural light does a Velux skylight bring into a room?

Up to 3 times more than a vertical window of the same size. Skylights pull light from above, so you're getting direct overhead sunlight instead of angled light through a wall.
ā€
A standard 550x980mm Velux skylight can transform a dark hallway, bathroom, or kitchen into a bright, usable space. Bigger skylights or multiple units can completely change how a room feels.
ā€
The result: better mood, less reliance on artificial lighting, more inviting spaces. Melbourne homes especially benefit since we get plenty of natural light year-round, and skylights capture it efficiently without the heat gain you'd get from extra windows.

Do you handle the carpentry and plastering?

Yes. We're not just skylight installers. We're qualified tradesmen with carpentry, roofing, and plastering backgrounds.

ā€
When you hire us, you're getting the full job:

  • Cutting and framing the opening in your ceiling and roof
  • Installing Velux flashing kits for proper weatherproofing
  • Hanging and setting plasterboard, including cornices
  • Stopping up, sanding, leaving the site ready for painting

No juggling different contractors. No waiting on other trades. One crew, complete job.

ā€
We pride ourselves on clean finishes, proper weatherproofing, and compliant construction. Every skylight meets Australian Building Code (NCC) requirements.
