Skylight install and replacemen

If you’ve lived in Vancouver for a while, you already know how grey our winters can get. Sometimes it feels like the lights have to stay on all day just to keep things bright. One of the simplest ways to fix that? Add skylights on roof. At GoodVans Roofing, we help homeowners bring more natural light into their homes with expert skylight installation and skylight replacement. We’ve been working on residential roofing in Vancouver long enough to know what works in our climate — and more importantly, what doesn’t.
Why Skylights Are Popular Here
Natural light makes such a difference. Walk into a room with a skylight, and suddenly it feels warmer, fresher, and more open. We’ve seen homeowners get that “wow” moment when they step into their living room after a new skylight goes in — and it’s like they’re seeing their home in a new way.
Of course, it’s not just about looks. With the right skylight, you can cut down on electricity use during the day. Some models even open up for ventilation, which helps keep kitchens or bathrooms from getting stuffy. In short, installing a skylight makes your home more inviting and a little more efficient at the same time.
Skylight Services We Offer
Because skylights are built right into your roof, you don’t want just anyone handling the job. They need to be installed or replaced by people who know residential roofs inside and out. That’s why our clients call us.
New Skylight Installation
Every roof is different. Before starting, we look at your roof’s slope, structure, and where the light would make the biggest impact. From there, our team of quality roofers recommends skylight options that match your needs and budget. Proper flashing and sealing are key to preventing leaks — and we take the time to make sure your skylight is watertight and built to last.
Skylight Replacement
If you’ve had skylights for years, there’s a good chance they’ve become cloudy, cracked, or drafty. Older skylights are one of the most common causes of roof leaks we see. Our skylight replacement service gives you a fresh start with modern, energy-efficient skylights that not only look better but hold up against Vancouver’s wet weather.
Why Vancouver Homeowners Choose GoodVans Roofing
When it comes to residential roofing contractors, experience matters. Skylights are more than simply holes in your roof; they need to be installed correctly so that your whole roof stays strong.

- Local know-how: We understand Vancouver’s unique mix of heavy rain, moss growth, and occasional snow.
- Skilled team: Our crew is certified, insured, and trained in all areas of residential roofing, not just skylights.
- Straightforward advice: We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is enough or if a full skylight replacement is the smarter move.

We don’t just call ourselves a residential roofing company. We back it up with work that keeps families safe, comfortable, and dry year after year.
More Than Just Light
There are many benefits that skylights bring to a room. They provide advantages that you will observe on a daily basis:
- Energy savings – Reduced requirement for lighting during the day, which results in energy savings.
- Health boost – It has been shown that exposure to more natural light can help improve one's mood.
- Resale appeal – The appeal of a home to potential buyers is increased when it is bright and contemporary.
- Ventilation – As a means of ventilation, certain skylights can be opened to allow in fresh air.
- Design impact – They contribute an architectural touch that is both contemporary and timeless in feel.
That’s why more Vancouver homeowners are including skylight installation when upgrading their residential roofs.
