Velux Skylights for Brighter, Energy-Efficient Homes
Secure Construction Company installs Velux® skylights for homeowners in Huntington, WV, and throughout the Tri-State region of West Virginia, Kentucky, and Ohio. As a Velux-certified installer with more than 25 years of regional roofing experience, our team installs skylight systems designed to integrate cleanly with your roof and perform reliably in local weather conditions.
Skylights bring natural daylight into areas of the home that traditional wall windows cannot reach. Interior hallways, bathrooms, and upper-level rooms beneath the roofline often receive limited natural light, which can make these spaces feel dim even during the day.
Installing a skylight lets daylight enter from above, brightening these areas without changing your home's layout. When properly installed, modern skylights can improve natural lighting, enhance ventilation, and create a more open feel inside the space.
What Problems Do Skylights Solve in a Home?
Many homes have interior areas that sit directly below roof sections, yet they receive very little natural light. Traditional windows can’t reach these spaces, so they rely on artificial lighting and creative alternatives. Over time, those rooms can feel darker, warmer, and more enclosed than the rest of your home.
Homeowners often add skylights to these areas in order to:
Brighten interior hallways and stairwells
Add daylight to bathrooms or closets
Improve airflow in upper-level rooms
Reduce daytime electric lighting use
Make enclosed spaces feel more open
Because skylights bring light from above rather than from the side, they distribute daylight more evenly across the room.
What Happens During Skylight Installation
Adding a skylight requires precise roof integration so the opening remains watertight and structurally sound. Secure Construction installs Velux skylights using manufacturer-specified flashing systems designed to direct water away from the skylight perimeter.
A typical skylight installation includes:
Skylight sizing and placement planning
Roof opening and framing
Velux skylight and flashing installation
Interior sealing and finish
Final weatherproofing review
Once complete, the skylight becomes part of the roof system, allowing daylight in while maintaining full weather protection.
Are Velux Skylights Energy Efficient and Weather-Resistant?
Yes. Velux skylights are engineered to perform through the full range of Tri-State weather conditions — including heavy rain, snow load, freeze-thaw cycles, and summer heat — without compromising the roof seal or interior comfort. All Velux skylights installed by Secure Construction use manufacturer-specified integrated flashing systems and insulated glass units designed to meet or exceed ENERGY STAR requirements.
Key performance features of Velux skylights:
Integrated flashing system
Factory-engineered flashing directs water away from the skylight perimeter, which is the most common point of failure in poorly installed skylights
Insulated glass
Multi-pane, low-E glass reduces heat transfer in both summer and winter, helping stabilize interior temperature near the skylight opening
ENERGY STAR qualified options
Select Velux models meet ENERGY STAR certification standards for energy efficiency in the Northern and Southern climate zones
Fixed or venting configurations
Fixed skylights maximize insulation value; venting models allow warm air to escape from upper rooms, reducing cooling loads in summer
Solar-powered operation
Solar-powered venting skylights open and close automatically using a built-in solar panel — no electrical wiring required
Integrated blind options
Factory-matched blinds allow light control without aftermarket modifications that can compromise the skylight seal
Velux skylights are designed to last 20–30 years when professionally installed with proper flashing — significantly longer than skylights installed without manufacturer-specified components.

We’ve had Secure Construction for several jobs. They’re always on time and in budget. I get quick replies to any questions. They leave the job site well cleaned up when the work is finished. The quality of the work they do is well worth the price paid. Secure is always my first call when we need major work done on our property.
Bryan as well as the installers were always prompt and considerate. Estimate was detailed and fully explained. Installers were meticulous with their work and clean up. Wouldn't hesitate to use them again.
