Great improvement!
My son lives at A townhouse and the skylights were old & leaking. I ordered two of these skylights and the flashing kit also. I had a man that does roofing work on the side install it The skylights were heavy because these were big ones 46 x 46, but three guys got Them up The ladder. I am so glad that I did it as a DIY and not have to go thru a roofing company and pay a ton. It looks great, 100% improvement. We had a recent rain and no leaks. Very happy!

      Brighter and cleaner
      [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We replaced two dome shaped skylights with Velux skylights in the roof of our covered patio. We like how much brighter these skylights are.

              Velux will NOT honor warranty!
              I had two of these installed by a Velux contractor. In year five--last year--one leaked above the LR. Velux sent out the same installer, who blamed the fire prinkler system---which is not even near the skylights, and was found in perfect condition by my insurance adjuster! Despite the ten-year warranty, and it being only year 5, Velux refuses to fix it! Lots of complaints on BBB re this. I guess they'll next blame aliens! I'll be suing them when the rain stops.

                Good Quality Product
                [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I recently had my cottage reroofed and replaced two existing skylights with two Velux fixed Skylights. They look great, are well constructed and look like they will hold up for a long time. The price was also very reasonable.

                  Outstanding craftsmanship
                  [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Installed this past summer and I love the light it provides in our loft. Velux products are so well made and they stand behind their products. Wouldn't think of installing any other brand.

                            Fantastic skylight
                            This skylight makes the room! It really does. Only complaint is the separate flashing kit that is needed to install and isn’t included. And it’s $115. Meaning this window costs $365 overall, not $250. So that part was disappointing - but in no way regretting the window - Fantastic light sourch and outlook.

                                  Crystal clear skylight. Quick installation. Order came in sooner than expected. I had to replace a nearby 30 year old plexiglass skylight that came with our track home. The original was cracking but not yet leaking. I wanted to replace it before it leaked! Velux is glass and the view amazing

                                      Installed my skylight 10 years ago and no need for maintenance. Till this day no leaks. Absolutely beautiful addition for my dining area. I definitely recommend it. The only thing I regret was not getting the ones with built in shades. But I added powered shades with remote control and solar panels for the batteries.

                                        Replaced my existing skylights that were nearly 20 years old. Love the look and really appreciate the peace of mind that comes with the warranty.

                                          Natural light
                                          Our Velux replacement fixed skylight was installed with our new roof in December in our bathroom. ( Previous owners had a skylight installed at some point and it was cloudy with age and in need of replacement. Also, there is no space for a window in this twin home.) I love the sunlight that floods our bathroom every day and also lights up a dark hallway and stairwell!! I don't need to turn on the light when I am home during the day as I am retired. I also enjoy seeing the moon and stars at night thru the crystal clear glass in the skylight. Our roof installer wishes he had one in his home too as he lives in an identical twin house!! I would recommend a skylight to anyone who has a dark stairwell or room without a window. You just can't beat the natural sunlight!!

                                          We could not agree more! The benefits of natural light are astounding and proven beneficial. You may even consider a ventilating skylight in the future as ventilation coupled with natural light creates the optimum living space.

                                            Had a Verlux that failed from being ok and replaced with a new one. Really good quality and now a vinyl frame instead of wood. Happy with the purchase.

                                              20 yr old skylight
                                              Velux say lifetime warranty. Not true. I have 5 20 yr old skylights velux. All but on started to leak. Pro installer, no issue with anything but the garbage skylights. I do not recommend velux. Stay away. Second set in my lifetime. Leaking again. 20 yr max.

                                              VELUX deck and curb mounted skylights have a 10 year product warranty as well as a 10 year No Leak Warranty when installed properly with VELUX flashing. These skylights also have a 20 year hermetic seal warranty for the glass. I'm afraid that we have never offered a Lifetime warranty on any of our products.
                                                love it!
                                                Replaced an old, leaky skylight with this high quality product. Very pleased with my choice!

                                                  Check them first!
                                                  Of course I meant to check each skylight before installation, but it's easy to get behind when you're getting a new roof and managing an entire upstairs renovation. 3 of the skylights were perfect, but the fourth was the worst caulking job I've ever seen- black caulk smeared across the skylight. I have no idea how this got past quality control, so I'm left assuming that there is no quality control. I've cleaned it up as best I can but it still sucks.
