Tempe Roofing Pros provides professional roof skylight installation in Tempe, AZ for residential and commercial properties across the East Valley. The first honest thing about skylights in Tempe is that most homes want less sun through the roof, not more. Every square foot of glass overhead is a heat gain problem for eight months of the year, and we say so before we quote one.
Which is why the product we install most often is not a skylight at all. A tubular daylighting device brings usable light down a reflective shaft through a small curb-mounted dome, delivers a fraction of the heat, and costs a fraction of the framing.
For a hallway, a bathroom, or an interior kitchen it is the better answer nearly every time. It is also a smaller hole in a roof, which matters more than it sounds.
When a real skylight is the right call, and for a living room or a studio it often is, the unit matters more than the installation. Laminated glazing with a low-emissivity coating and a warm-edge spacer, factory curb-mounted, fixed rather than venting unless there is a reason to open it. Acrylic bubbles yellow and craze in this exposure and we do not sell them. Glazing choice is where the heat gain is either managed or accepted.
On a low-slope foam roof the installation detail is genuinely good news. A curb is set, and the foam is sprayed up onto and over it, so the skylight ends up flashed by the same monolithic surface as the rest of the field with no counterflashing to open later. Deck-mounted units on a shallow plane are a leak waiting to happen. Curb-mounted units on a foam field are among the more reliable details we install.
Existing skylights are usually repairable. Most calls we take are a failed perimeter sealant, a cracked dome from foot traffic, or a condensation stain that is actually arriving from a nearby penetration, and none of those need a new unit. We check the curb, the glazing, and the surrounding field before quoting a replacement. Replacing a unit that only needed sealant is a common and avoidable expense.
If you are adding one, the orientation is a decision worth ten minutes. North-facing glazing gives you steady light with the least heat, while a west-facing unit will bring in the afternoon that everyone in this city spends money trying to keep out. Placement is free at the design stage and expensive to change afterwards.
Our insured team brings the right materials and equipment to every job — sprayed polyurethane foam at three-pound density, acrylic elastomeric coating meeting ASTM D6083, high-solids silicone topcoat, dry film thickness measured in mils, electronic capacitance moisture survey, dusk infrared thermography scan — and backs the work with a written workmanship warranty. We serve Tempe and nearby communities including Mesa, Chandler, Gilbert, Scottsdale.

Materials, equipment and how we do roof skylight installation
The difference between roof skylight installation that lasts and roof skylight installation that gets redone in three years is almost always preparation and materials, not the finish you see on day one. We work with sprayed polyurethane foam at three-pound density, acrylic elastomeric coating meeting ASTM D6083, high-solids silicone topcoat, dry film thickness measured in mils, spec them to the job instead of to the invoice, and write the material grades into the free estimate so you know exactly what you are buying.
Every Tempe job runs the same way: site walk and measurements, written scope and fixed price, protection of the surrounding area, then the work itself with a daily clean-up. Years of roofing work in the East Valley means we have already met whatever your property is going to throw at us — awkward access, older construction, an HOA with opinions.

- ✓Cores cut and read before a tear-off is quoted, and a written recommendation to repair instead when the deck comes up dry
- ✓Color and reflectivity treated as a durability decision and explained in writing, since heat ages a roof faster than weather does here
