Roofing & Skylight
Expertise You Can Trust
Installing a skylight is about far more than placing glass into a roof. Every skylight becomes part of the overall roofing system and must perform under changing weather conditions throughout the year.
At Lemus Construction, our experience in commercial roofing and multifamily roof replacement allows us to install skylights that complement the roofing assembly rather than compromise it. We coordinate every stage of the project, from planning and resident communication to final inspections, ensuring every detail meets manufacturer recommendations.
Our crews understand the unique challenges of occupied communities where minimizing disruption is just as important as delivering quality workmanship. Property managers, condominium associations, and building owners trust us because we focus on long term performance, professional communication, and installations designed to last.

Premium Skylight Systems & Materials
Every successful skylight installation begins with selecting materials that work together as a complete roofing system. We install trusted VELUX skylights, manufacturer-approved flashing kits, waterproof underlayments, and roofing materials that are compatible with the surrounding roof assembly.
Proper flashing, ice and water protection, and accurate fastening methods are critical to preventing water intrusion and extending the life of both the skylight and the roofing system. Rather than relying on excessive sealants or temporary repairs, we follow proven installation methods that create a durable, weather-resistant connection between the skylight and the roof.
This attention to detail helps improve energy efficiency, reduce maintenance concerns, and provide reliable performance throughout every season.
The VELUX Advantage
Not all skylights are built the same. Lemus Construction partners with VELUX, one of the industry’s most trusted skylight manufacturers, because their products are engineered for durability, energy efficiency, and dependable performance.
VELUX skylights feature advanced glass technology, integrated flashing systems, and designs that help reduce the risk of leaks when installed according to manufacturer specifications. For multifamily communities, choosing a quality skylight means fewer maintenance concerns, improved resident comfort, and long-term value for the property.
Whether replacing outdated skylights during a roof renovation or installing new units as part of a capital improvement project, VELUX products provide an attractive source of natural daylight while maintaining the integrity of the building envelope.
Understanding Your Skylight Options
Some residents choose to remove an aging skylight rather than replace it during a roof renovation. While this option may reduce initial project costs, it is important to understand the long-term impact before making a permanent decision.
Removing a skylight eliminates a valuable source of natural daylight and can make interior spaces feel darker and less inviting. Installing a skylight again in the future often requires opening the finished roofing system, modifying structural framing, and completing additional interior work, making the project significantly more expensive than replacing the skylight during roof replacement.
We help property managers and residents evaluate every option so they can make informed decisions that balance maintenance costs, aesthetics, and long-term property value.
Skylight Assessments
& Capital Planning
Skylights should be evaluated as part of every roofing inspection and long-term capital improvement plan. During our assessments, we examine the age, condition, flashing system, glazing, surrounding roofing materials, and any signs of moisture intrusion or deterioration.
This proactive approach helps identify potential concerns before they become expensive emergency repairs. For multifamily communities, replacing aging skylights during scheduled roof renovations often reduces overall project costs while minimizing disruptions for residents.
By incorporating skylight replacement into your long term asset management strategy, property managers can improve budgeting accuracy, extend roofing system performance, and better protect the value of the community’s investment.

Quality Installation with Reliable Protection
Choosing experienced professionals and quality products provides peace of mind long after construction is complete. Lemus Construction follows manufacturer installation guidelines and industry best practices to ensure every skylight installation performs as intended.
By installing trusted VELUX skylights with compatible flashing systems and roofing materials, we help maximize product performance and preserve available manufacturer warranties.

The result is a durable skylight system backed by reliable products, experienced installers, and a commitment to long-term performance.
Professional Installation
from Start to Finish
Every skylight installation follows a carefully planned process designed to protect both the roofing system and the interior of the building. We begin by evaluating the existing skylight, surrounding roof structure, and roofing materials before safely removing the old unit when replacement is required.
New waterproof underlayment and manufacturer-approved flashing are installed to create a secure barrier against moisture. The new skylight is then positioned, fastened, and integrated with the surrounding roofing materials according to manufacturer specifications.
Once installation is complete, our crews perform detailed quality inspections to verify proper sealing, flashing, and overall performance. This systematic approach helps ensure every skylight functions as intended while providing long-lasting protection against the elements.
Comprehensive roof evaluations before every skylight installation project begins.
Careful removal of existing skylights without compromising surrounding roofing materials.
Precision flashing installation for maximum waterproofing and weather protection.
New skylights installed to manufacturer specifications for dependable performance.
Final inspections verify proper installation before project completion.
Advance scheduling and communication with residents before construction begins.
Safe, organized work areas are maintained throughout the roofing project.
Efficient skylight installation coordinated with roof replacement activities.
Minimal interior disruption while protecting finished living spaces.
Thorough cleanup and final inspections completed before project closeout.
Preparing for Skylight Installation
Resident communication plays an important role in every multifamily skylight installation project. Before work begins, our team coordinates with property management to provide scheduling information and explain what residents can expect during construction.
Roofing crews carefully remove existing materials around the skylight opening while protecting the surrounding work area. Residents may experience temporary construction noise, vibrations, and brief periods where interior access is needed to inspect or finish portions of the installation.
In most cases, skylight replacement is completed as part of the roof replacement process, reducing additional disruptions. After installation, our crews inspect the completed work, clean the job site, and confirm the skylight has been properly integrated into the roofing system before moving to the next phase of construction.
Protecting Your Investment
A skylight is only as reliable as the installation supporting it. Even the highest quality products can experience premature problems if flashing, waterproofing, or roofing materials are installed incorrectly.
Professional skylight installation focuses on creating a complete weather-resistant roofing system rather than simply sealing around the skylight itself. Proper integration with underlayments, flashing systems, shingles, and roof slopes helps prevent water intrusion while improving long term durability and energy efficiency.
For commercial buildings and multifamily communities, quality installation also reduces maintenance requests, protects interior finishes, and extends the service life of the surrounding roof. Investing in experienced installers helps ensure your skylights continue delivering natural daylight and dependable performance for many years.
