Deck-mounted skylights

Ideal for pitched roofs. Available in fixed or venting models with solar-powered shades and rain sensors for automatic closing.

Sun tunnels

Bring natural light to hallways, closets, and bathrooms using reflective tunnels. Optional night lights guide the way after sunset.

Roof windows & loft solutions

Hinged roof windows open wide for fresh air—perfect for finished attics, bonus rooms, and loft conversions.

Leak prevention

Flashing systems that stand up to storms.

We integrate factory-backed flashing kits, ice-and-water shields, and proper insulation around every skylight so leaks are never a concern. Our crews replace rotten decking and drywall if past leaks caused hidden damage.

  • • Ice-and-water barrier extending beyond each skylight
  • • Interior finish carpentry and paint touch-ups included

From initial consultation to final sunlight

Replacing or adding skylights is easier than you think. Here’s how the Maverick process works.

01

On-site evaluation

We inspect your roof structure, attic space, and ceiling to recommend the best skylight type and placement.

02

Design & product selection

Choose skylight sizes, venting options, blinds, and finishes. We provide detailed pricing and confirm eligible tax credits.

03

Installation day

Your existing skylight is removed if needed, decking repaired, flashing installed, and interior trim finished the same day.

04

Final inspection & warranty registration

We water-test the skylight, clean the work area, and register your Velux warranty documentation.

Skylight FAQs

Answers to the questions we hear daily from Kansas City homeowners.

Do skylights always leak? +
When installed with manufacturer flashing kits and proper underlayment, skylights are completely watertight. We include leak-free warranties and water-test every installation.
Can you replace a skylight without replacing the roof? +
Yes. We carefully remove shingles around the skylight and install integrated flashing. If your roof is nearing replacement, we will advise combining projects to maximize value.
What maintenance do skylights require? +
Minimal maintenance is needed beyond occasional glass cleaning. Shield Plan members receive annual inspections to confirm flashing and seals remain tight.
Are solar-powered skylights eligible for tax credits? +
Yes. Qualifying Velux solar skylights and shades provide a federal tax credit worth 30% of product and installation costs. We supply the necessary documentation after installation.
