Natural light does what no light fixture can: it makes a room feel bigger, warmer, and more alive. A properly installed skylight in your Laguna Woods home adds daylight to kitchens, bathrooms, hallways, and stairwells that artificial lighting can't match. Laguna Woods Roofing & Maintenance handles the structural framing, waterproofing, and insulation so you get the light without the leak.
VELUX, Fakro, and Sun-Tek are the skylight brands we install most in Laguna Woods. Each offers fixed and vented options, tempered and laminated glass, and blinds and shades built into the unit. We help you select the right size and type for your roof pitch, room layout, and ventilation needs.
Our Skylight Installation Process
Skylight Planning
Free on-site assessment. We check your roof structure, identify the optimal position between rafters, and present skylight options with honest pricing. Sun angle analysis included.
Curb Construction
We cut the roof deck opening through the sheathing and shingles, then frame a structural curb between the rafters with doubled lumber. Headers distribute the load around the opening. The curb provides a solid, level base for the skylight unit.
Flashing & Waterproofing
Full flashing system: ice-and-water shield base layer, step flashing and counter-flashing on all four sides, woven into the existing shingle field. Water flows over the flashing and onto the shingles below — never behind them.
Install & Insulate
Unit installed and sealed. Light shaft insulated and trimmed. We verify the seal from inside the attic — if we can see any daylight at the flashing joints, we re-seal before we leave. Your skylight is watertight and energy-efficient.
