Roofing & Carpentry?
Yes, our team may complete reroofing, carpentry and other building jobs during your skylight installation.
Talk to our team during your Measure & Quote meeting about the details of your projects.
Proximity to Ridgelines?
Skylights are installed no closer than 400mm to ridgelines to allow the top flashing to be clear of the ridge cap and to allow adequate fixing for the roofing material above the skylight without puncturing the VELUX flashing.
If the unit is closer than 400mm to the ridge the flashing could run under the ridge capping as long as it is not nailed or screwed through.
Skylight Density
How close together can VELUX skylights be fitted?
If using EDW flashing – no closer than 600mm to ensure that flashings do not touch.
If using EKW combi-flashing or EKL flashing a gap of 100mm is required between external frames.
Discuss these options with your installer during the measure & quote meeting.
Hi, we cannot recommend this friendly team highly enough.
They put in a skylight in our dining room and a sun tunnel in the corridor for us 8 years ago and they have been trouble free. So we were stoked to be able to get them back to put another skylight in our lounge. The team is great to work with, punctual, great communication and super speedy in quoting, and completing the work.
We went from making contact to a plastered and painted skylight in three weeks and the difference in the house is wonderful. Also they now come with wizzy solar powered blind which is cool too.
We are very happy to recommend Vikingbuilt.
