Professional Skylight Installation in North Vancouver, BC
Bring more natural light, fresh air, and comfort into your home with professional skylight installation, replacement, repair, sun tunnels, and roof windows in North Vancouver.
At In Awe Skylights, we provide complete VELUX® skylight solutions designed around your home’s roof structure, interior layout, and long-term performance needs.
North Vancouver Skylight Specialists
North Vancouver homes come in many different shapes and styles, from established neighbourhood properties to modern renovations, custom homes, and houses with vaulted ceilings or complex rooflines.
For this reason, installing a skylight properly requires more than simply creating an opening in the roof. The roof structure, flashing, waterproofing, drainage, insulation, and interior finishing all need to work together.
At In Awe Skylights, we manage the complete process from start to finish. We specialize in VELUX® skylight installation, skylight replacement, leak repair, sun tunnels, roof windows, structural framing, and interior finishing, giving North Vancouver homeowners one experienced team for the entire project.
Our approach is simple: recommend the right solution for your space, install it correctly, protect the surrounding roof system, and leave you with a clean, professionally finished result.
Complete Skylight Services in North Vancouver
Whether you’re looking to add daylight to a dark room or resolve an existing skylight problem, we provide complete solutions for homes throughout North Vancouver.
1.New Skylight Installation
Add natural light to kitchens, living rooms, bathrooms, stairwells, vaulted ceilings, and other areas of your home with a professionally planned VELUX® skylight installation.
2.Skylight Replacement
Older skylights can become inefficient, damaged, cloudy, or prone to leaks. We can assess your existing skylight and recommend a modern replacement when upgrading is the best option.
3.Skylight Leak Repair
Water around a skylight can come from damaged flashing, failed seals, roofing problems, or other installation issues. We inspect the skylight and surrounding roof to identify the actual source of the problem.
4.Sun Tunnel Installation
A sun tunnel can bring natural daylight into smaller spaces where a traditional skylight may not be practical, including hallways, closets, bathrooms, stairwells, and interior rooms.
5.Roof Windows
For attics, lofts, and vaulted spaces where fresh air and accessibility matter, VELUX® roof windows provide both daylight and ventilation.
6.Carpentry & Interior Finishing
Our work doesn’t stop at the roof. We also handle framing, shaft construction, drywall, trim, insulation, and interior finishing to create a seamless final appearance.
North Vancouver Skylight Installation Services
A successful skylight installation starts long before the skylight is placed into the roof.
We evaluate the available space, roof structure, ceiling configuration, and desired position of the skylight before determining the best approach.
Once the right approach is established, our installation process can include:
1.Site Assessment
We evaluate the roof, attic space, ceiling layout, and proposed skylight location.
2.Structural Framing
The opening is properly framed based on the existing structure.
3.Skylight Installation
The VELUX® skylight is professionally installed according to the appropriate installation requirements.
4.Flashing & Waterproofing
Proper flashing and waterproofing are critical to protecting your home from moisture intrusion.
5.Roof Integration
The surrounding roofing materials are carefully integrated around the new skylight.
6.Interior Finishing
We complete the interior shaft, insulation, drywall, trim, and finishing work.
7.Final Inspection
We review the completed installation and make sure the area is clean, sealed, and properly finished.
As a result, this complete roof-to-interior approach is one of the key differences between hiring a dedicated skylight specialist and treating the skylight as a small add-on to another construction project.
North Vancouver Skylight Replacement & Leak Repair
A leaking skylight shouldn’t automatically mean replacing the entire unit.
Sometimes the problem is caused by flashing, seals, surrounding roofing materials, drainage, or another issue around the installation. A proper inspection helps determine whether repair or replacement is the more appropriate solution.
Signs that your North Vancouver skylight may need attention include:
- Water stains around the skylight
- Dripping or visible leaks
- Condensation or fogging between glass panes
- Drafts around the frame
- Cracked glazing
- Damaged or deteriorated flashing
- Bubbling or damaged ceiling finishes
- An aging skylight that no longer performs properly
We inspect the skylight and surrounding area before recommending the next step, helping homeowners avoid unnecessary replacement costs while addressing problems properly.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do you install skylights in North Vancouver?
Yes. In Awe Skylights provides professional skylight installation, replacement, repair, sun tunnel, roof window, and interior finishing services throughout North Vancouver.
Do you install VELUX® skylights in North Vancouver?
Yes. We specialize in VELUX® skylight solutions and provide installation and service for residential projects.
Can you repair a leaking skylight instead of replacing it?
In many situations, yes. We first inspect the skylight, flashing, surrounding roofing, and installation to determine the source of the problem. When repair is practical, we recommend repairing rather than unnecessarily replacing the unit.
What rooms are best for skylights?
Kitchens, bathrooms, living rooms, stairwells, hallways, vaulted ceilings, and upper-floor spaces can all benefit from natural daylight. The best solution depends on the structure and layout of the home.
Are sun tunnels suitable for North Vancouver homes?
Sun tunnels can be an excellent option for smaller or enclosed spaces where a traditional skylight may not be practical. They’re commonly used in hallways, closets, bathrooms, stairwells, and other interior areas. VELUX® describes SUN TUNNEL® skylights as solutions for smaller and tighter spaces that capture daylight through a reflective tunnel.
Do you handle the interior finishing after a skylight installation?
Yes. Our services can include interior shaft framing, insulation, drywall, trim, and finishing so the skylight looks properly integrated into the room.
How do I know whether my old skylight should be repaired or replaced?
An inspection is the best way to determine the right option. Leaks, damaged flashing, failed seals, cracked components, age, and overall condition can all affect whether repair or replacement makes more sense.
