Everything in Every Job

Structural Assessment
We evaluate the roof framing, rafter spacing, and attic space to determine feasibility and the right placement for your skylight.

We work with VELUX — the industry leader in skylights. Fixed, venting, and solar-powered venting models available in multiple sizes.
Roof Opening & Framing
Headers and trimmers installed to properly carry load around the new opening. Structural framing done to NJ code.

For solar-powered or electric venting skylights, we coordinate with a licensed NJ electrician for wiring if required.

Frequently Asked Questions

A single fixed skylight installation typically runs $1,500–$2,500 including the VELUX unit, structural work, flashing, and basic interior finishing. Solar-powered venting models run $2,500–$4,000. Pricing varies based on roof pitch, attic depth, and whether electrical work is required. B&T provides a free written estimate.

A properly installed skylight with quality flashing — as B&T uses — does not leak. Most skylight leaks in NJ are the result of improper installation, failed flashing (often from inferior aftermarket kits), or aged sealants. VELUX-matched flashing systems, installed correctly, provide a long-term watertight connection to your roof.

Most NJ municipalities require a permit for skylight installation, as it involves structural framing and a roof opening. B&T handles permit filing as part of the project. Permit costs vary by municipality and are included in our estimate.

As a rule of thumb, skylight area should be 5–15% of the floor area of the room it serves. Larger is not always better — oversized skylights in south-facing rooms can create too much heat gain in NJ summers. During our consultation, we'll recommend the right size and placement for your specific room and roof orientation.
