Skylight warranties cover the skylight product (manufacturer warranty) and the installation (workmanship warranty). Because skylight installation involves cutting into the roof, proper installation is critical to prevent leaks. VELUX warranty coverage is available when the installation is performed by a VELUX Certified Installer. Veterans Roofing holds this certification.
Manufacturer Skylight Warranties
VELUX issues warranties on their skylights, sun tunnels, and roof windows covering manufacturing defects, glass seal failure, and in some cases, specific performance characteristics. The specific warranty terms depend on the product. Warranty coverage is available when the installation is performed by a certified installer.
Installation and Skylight Warranties
Skylight installation requires cutting into the roof deck and integrating the skylight with the roofing system through flashing. Improper flashing is the most common cause of skylight leaks. VELUX Certified Installers have been trained in VELUX's specific flashing and sealing methods, which is a condition for warranty coverage. Veterans Roofing's VELUX certification means qualifying installations meet VELUX's installation requirements.
