Profitable Opportunities with Skylights: Sun Tunnel Replacements

Written by Kat Wiseman | August 23, 2019

It's time for another round of profitable opportunities with skylights!

Recently, we talked about how you can increase your profits by creating a room in the roof or replacing skylights. Today, we're here to talk about replacing old tubular skylights with newer, better VELUX Sun Tunnel™ Skylights.

 

Sun Tunnel™ Skylight Replacement

Not only do VELUX Sun Tunnel™ Skylights enhance homes with natural light, but they also represent a profitable opportunity for today's roofing professionals. Whether they're replacements or not, sun tunnels are the most versatile way to incorporate daylight into a home and, for most homeowners, are more financially feasible than traditional skylights.

By offering sun tunnel installation and sun tunnel replacements, you can easily broaden your business opportunities by offering more daylight to more homeowners.

There are two key reasons for why we see sun tunnel replacements as a profitable opportunity:

  1. Sun tunnel replacements allow you to maintain the integrity of your work with quality products that install fast. VELUX Sun Tunnel™ Skylights install in under two hours. And the flexible tunnel helps you work around attic obstructions to get off the roof faster.
  2. They allow you to offer higher value to your customers. With a sun tunnel, you can turn an average roofing job into so much more. Nothing transforms space like natural light...and nothing gets natural light into hard-to-reach spaces like a VELUX Sun Tunnel™ Skylight.

Start installing and replacing sun tunnels, and watch your referrals go through the roof!
