Skylight Installation Sydney — Velux and SolarTube Approved Installer

Skylights and daylight tubes transform internal rooms but they have to be installed properly - the flashing kit must match the roof profile, the ceiling shaft has to be insulated and lined, and the cut must align with both the roof rafter spacing and the ceiling joist spacing. Most leaking skylights we attend are non-genuine units fitted with generic flashings instead of the matched kit; the small upfront saving costs the ceiling rebuild later.

Tradetek installs genuine Velux (the global market leader, 80-year warranty history) and SolarTube (the original tubular daylight device). Velux fixed VS units bring direct natural light into living areas. Velux openable VSE units (manual or solar-powered) add ventilation to bathrooms, kitchens and bedrooms. SolarTube 250mm or 350mm tubes bring daylight into windowless internal rooms - hallway, walk-in robe, ensuite - via a reflective tube through the roof cavity.

Every install includes the manufacturer's factory flashing kit (Velux EDW for tile, EDL for slate, EDS for low-pitch metal; SolarTube manufacturer flashing matched to roof type), insulated ceiling shaft lined in plasterboard and painted, blockout or pleated blind option for Velux units, and a full roof penetration sealed with butyl tape under the flashing and Dektite-style EPDM where flashing meets sheeting.

Most single-storey installs complete in one day. Two-storey or complex roof structures take 1.5-2 days. You receive the manufacturer warranty (10 years on leak, 20 years on insulating glass for Velux), our workmanship warranty in writing, and a written photo report of the install - critical for insurance and resale.
