Velux Skylights
The communities on Northern Vancouver Island are a great place to live, with panoramic views of mountains and urban areas merging to create an epic landscape. Unfortunately, properties in the area often compromise natural light for their enviable location—but it doesn’t have to be that way.
Skylights are an excellent way to attract natural light into your home and enhance ventilation, giving you the best of both worlds.
Our Velux skylight designs combine style with functionality, giving you modern locking systems and unparalleled energy efficiency.
