Ventilation

Venting skylights release hot air and moisture, improving indoor air quality.

Home Value

Skylights are a desirable feature that increases property value and buyer interest.

Privacy

Get abundant light without sacrificing privacy — perfect for bathrooms and bedrooms.

Our Installation Process

Proper skylight installation is critical to prevent leaks. Our process ensures watertight results every time.

1

Roof Assessment

We evaluate your roof structure, determine the optimal skylight placement, and check for obstructions.

2

Opening & Framing

We cut the roof opening precisely and build a proper curb frame to support the skylight unit.

3

Flashing Installation

Step flashing and counter-flashing are carefully woven into the existing shingles for a watertight seal.

4

Skylight & Finishing

The skylight is mounted, sealed, and surrounding shingles are reinstalled for a clean, professional look.

Why Professional Installation Matters

The number one concern with skylights is leaking — and 90% of skylight leaks are caused by improper installation, not the skylight itself. That's why choosing an experienced roofing contractor for skylight work is critical.

At ST Roofing & Construction, our team understands the intricate relationship between skylights and roofing systems. We integrate the skylight flashing directly into your shingle roof following manufacturer specifications and roofing best practices.
