Skylight Installation Scottsdale

Looking to brighten your home with more natural light? Skylights add warmth, reduce the need for artificial lighting, and bring the Arizona sky right into your living space. But in Scottsdale’s harsh sun and monsoon storms, a poorly installed skylight can lead to leaks, drywall damage, and costly repairs. That’s why homeowners across the East Valley trust Capstone Roofing for professional skylight installation in Scottsdale.

Local Skylight Challenges in Scottsdale

Arizona weather creates unique challenges for homeowners adding skylights:

Extreme Heat

Without Low-E glass, skylights increase indoor temps.

Monsoon Storms

Poor step flashing or roof pitch can cause leaks.

Aging Roof Shingles

Adding skylights to an old roof may expose weak rafters or roof deck.

Our solution: We use Low-E Velux skylights, complete flashing kits, and structural inspections to ensure your skylight is secure and energy efficient.

Skylight Repair and Replace

Types of Skylights We Install

Not sure which skylight is right for your home remodel? Here are the most popular options:

Fixed Skylights

Perfect for areas where you want light but no ventilation. Provides expansive outdoor views and energy efficiency in cooler months.

Venting Skylight / Roof Window

Also called ventilating skylights, these open manually or electronically for fresh air. Great for vaulted ceilings or bathrooms.

Tubular Skylights & Sun Tunnels

Ideal for pantries, hallways, and closets. These small, reflective tunnels deliver daylight where traditional skylights don’t fit.

Curb Mount Skylight

Best for replacement projects and compatible with most roof shingles or metal roof systems. Easy to install with a flashing kit.

Deck Mounted Skylights

Low-profile skylights that sit flush with the roof deck—perfect for new skylight installations on modern remodels.

Solar-Powered Velux Skylights

Cut energy costs and qualify for tax credits while enjoying remote-controlled venting and blinds.

What You Need to Know Before Installing a Skylight

DIY vs. Professional Skylight Installation

Thinking about DIY skylight installation? While some DIYers attempt to cut rafters, handle flashing, and finish drywall themselves, skylight projects are one of the most common sources of roof leaks.

If you’re researching “how to install a skylight” or reading a step-by-step guide online, keep in mind:

  • Cutting the rough opening with a circular saw requires precision.
  • Improper step flashing installation leads to leaks.
  • Warranty coverage often requires a licensed installer.

Do-it-yourself skylight projects may look cheaper, but in Scottsdale’s climate, it pays to hire a professional installer who guarantees workmanship.

DIY VS Professional Roof Installation

I only got an estimate from these guys for a new roof and all new facia boards. they only wanted to replace the low facia boards and wanted to leave the high facia boards, which were the worst. also wanted to leave a rotten facia board behind my patio canopy. I went with another roofing company which was only $300 higher than Capstone's estimate. they replaced every facia boards with 2x6.

The crew was very clean and professional, kept my yard/pool super clean and picked up after themselves which I really appreciated! I ask them to kindly to be careful with a camera cable and they did not unplug, instead worked around it without damaging and I was very thankful for that.
