Our Process
Our Professional Skylight Installation Process
-
01
Free Site Consultation & Design
We start with a visit to your home to assess your roof structure, ceiling layout, light goals, and structural constraints. We’ll discuss skylight options — fixed (non-operable) for purely aesthetic light, or venting (operable) for light plus ventilation — and help you choose the right size and style for your space.
-
02
Permits & Pre-Installation Planning
Skylight installation requires roof permits in Denver and must pass building inspection. We handle all permit paperwork, manage the city approval process, and coordinate inspections to ensure everything meets current code.
-
03
Roof Opening & Framing
On installation day, our crew carefully cuts the roof opening in the exact location specified during design. We then build a properly sized and angled curb frame — this is the structural and waterproofing foundation that separates a successful installation from a future leak.
-
04
Skylight Installation & Flashing
The skylight unit is secured to the curb with manufacturer-approved fasteners and sealed using a combination of flashing and sealant. We overlap all materials following proper roof-water-shedding sequence — meaning water flows downhill without backing up under the flashing.
-
05
Interior Finishing & Final Walkthrough
We complete the interior opening with trim, drywall, insulation, or other finishes per your preference. We clean up all debris from both roof and interior spaces, test the skylight once more, and walk you through maintenance expectations.

Doing It Right Matters
Ready to Transform Your Space with Skylights?
Natural light changes how a home feels — it brightens dark spaces, makes rooms feel larger, creates a sense of openness, and builds a daily connection to the outdoors and weather. Skylights are an investment in your comfort, your mood, and your home value. At Core Roofing Systems, we treat every skylight installation with the precision and care it deserves. Our 25+ years of Denver roofing experience means we understand Colorado’s intense UV exposure, seasonal snow loading, temperature swings, and the critical importance of watertight installation.
Whether you’re adding a single skylight to a dark kitchen, brightening a bathroom, creating a feature focal point in a master bedroom, or planning multiple skylights across your home, we’ll guide you from initial consultation through final walkthrough and beyond. The Denver Metro is home to 320+ days of sunshine per year. That’s an incredible asset — and skylights let you capture it. Financing options are available to make your skylight project more affordable.
