Commercial Skylight Installation

Commercial skylight installation on your roof offers a wide range of benefits you can’t reject. Whether you’re remodeling your existing commercial structure or building a new one, you can’t just say no to skylights. Roofing experts often recommend quality commercial skylights as they make any building stand out.

They don’t just provide an unmatched natural light source but helps the commercial brand cut down on electricity usage for lights. Skylights minimize cooling costs by reducing heat from light sources and direct more of the transmitted light into space without damage to furnishings and merchandise.

If you’ve ever been to a site where skylights are installed, then you should be familiar with the word “daylighting.” They are used interchangeably, and only an experienced commercial skylight installation team can help you pull off your project effortlessly. Flat Roofs Toronto is not just a reliable brand that installs flat roofs. We pride ourselves as a team that has mastered all about skylight installations on roofs of commercial buildings.

Whether you’re looking to install a tubular, fixed, or ventilating skylight of any shape, we’re a brand that is always at your beck and call. We understand how much you need natural light in your commercial space, and your quest for the best practices in energy efficiency. Flat Roofs Toronto makes your dream commercial skylight installation come alive.

Best Quality Materials for Commercial Skylight Installation

Without a doubt, most property owners see it as a herculean task to make an ideal choice of materials to be used in their skylight installation project. There are numerous designs, and even types of glazing materials – these often tend to make some property owners indecisive. Don’t fret! Our team is always ready to work with you hand-in-gloves, to ensure we handpick and use the best materials for your skylight installation project.

You can choose to have to go for solar-heat control, plastic or even glass glazing material depending on your preferences and budget. Plastic glazing often comes in acrylic form and is very economical, but might turn yellow over time if there are no special coatings on it. Glass glaze is more durable and has enhanced longevity. However, solar-heat control glazing is highly energy-efficient and is often the choicest for many who opt for commercial skylight installation.

Flat Roofs Toronto Delivers only Watertight Skylights

When you’re ready to install your skylight, it’s always advisable to go for a team that understands that your skylights must be watertight. You wouldn’t want to spend more on controlling water leakage, skylight repairs, or replacement shortly after completing your commercial skylight installation project. We detest that and go even out of our way, if need be, to ensure that we deliver strictly watertight skylights.

frequently asked questions
Why install commercial skylights on flat roofs?

Commercial skylights significantly elevate a space by introducing natural light, improving office ambiance, and enhancing energy-efficient lighting—all while adding architectural flair to commercial buildings. Flat Roofs Toronto highlights the aesthetic and functional value of these installations for both new constructions and remodels.

What distinguishes Flat Roofs Toronto’s commercial skylight installation service?

They ensure skylight installations that are leak-resistant, using robust sealants and techniques suited to flat roofing. Their team tailors solutions to client needs, emphasizing quality and long-term performance across Toronto and surrounding areas.

What benefits can businesses expect from commercial skylights?

• Improved natural lighting enhances workspace brightness, which studies show can boost occupant productivity and reduce energy usage. 
• Ventilation and smoke control: Many commercial skylights offer natural ventilation and can act as smoke and heat exhaust systems (NSHEV), improving safety and air quality. 
• Roof access and safety: Some skylight units also double as discreet access hatches with built-in fall-through protection—ideal for rooftop maintenance and safety compliance. 

What types of skylight systems are available for commercial flat roofs?

• Curb-mounted skylights, elevated to facilitate drainage and reduce leakage potential.
• Flat or domed skylights, installed flush with the roof surface yet designed to shed water effectively.
• Pyramid or architectural-shaped skylights, offering both visual appeal and superior drainage.  
• Continuous skylights for large-scale daylighting—popular in warehouses, office buildings, and retail spaces.

How can installation quality be ensured on flat roofs?

Proper installation is essential. Key best practices include:
1. Selecting optimal positioning—choosing a location that naturally supports drainage.
2. Installing high-quality flashing and seals—critical to preventing leaks.
3. Adding tapered curb structures or insulation to further prevent water pooling and thermal loss.
Professional installers like Flat Roofs Toronto ensure these technical steps are properly executed. 

Can skylights support ventilation, safety, and code compliance?

Yes—commercial skylight offerings often include:
• Natural ventilation and smoke/heat exhaust capabilities for improved interior climate and emergency venting. 
• Fall-through protection, meeting non-fragile or OSHA safety standards, crucial for roofs requiring occasional access. 

What should businesses consider when specifying skylights?

• Material strength: Acrylic or polycarbonate domes (e.g., plexiglass) are often ideal for protecting against snow or impact on flat commercial roofs. 
• Frame options: Durable frames like vinyl or wood may offer long-lasting performance and aesthetic flexibility. 
• Thermal performance: Depending on the building’s climate needs, consider glazing with low-E coatings or multi-pane assemblies to minimize heat loss or gain. 

Should businesses hire professionals, or attempt DIY?

Professional installation is strongly advised. Commercial skylight installs carry complexity—ensuring watertight seals, structural support, and code compliance is critical. Mistakes can cause leaks, structural damage, or energy inefficiency; Flat Roofs Toronto’s expertise helps mitigate these risks.

What signs indicate a skylight needs inspection or repair?

Watch for:
• Leaks, condensation, or water stains around the frame or ceiling
• Old or degraded seals and flashing
• Damage or debris clogging the skylight curb or membrane
Flat Roofs Toronto emphasizes leak-free installations, implying the importance of early detection and maintenance.
