Advantages of Skylights

1. Boost Curb Appeal

Natural light is a big selling point for homebuyers. Other benefits that could draw in buyers are the positive health benefits and mood-boosting effects.

2. Control Light Coming In

By installing skylight blinds, you can control the amount of sunlight that passes through the skylight in the same way you control your other windows. Choose from either manual or remote-controlled blinds in over 60 different colors and styles.

3. Save on Your Cooling Bill

A skylight that opens allows hot air to rise and escape, reducing your reliance on air conditioning to cool your home during the year. Skylights create a chimney effect, directing moisture and odors out of your home, which improves air quality.

Financing Your Skylight Project Is Easy

Velux’s Solar-Powered “Fresh Air” Skylight is one of the most convenient options on the market for homeowners who want venting and light control without the hassle of electrical wiring. A small solar panel built into the skylight’s flashing captures available sunlight to charge an onboard battery, which quietly powers the motors for opening and closing the vent and operating the blinds. It is a clean, self-contained solution that works in virtually any room of your home.

Financing Options

A new skylight is an investment in your home’s comfort, appearance, and long-term performance. We can work with a range of budgets and will help you find the right product and approach to fit your needs. Ask us about financing options when you request your estimate.

“We had a leak in one of our skylights, so we called George Grove. After an initial visit, it was recommended that we replace the skylights. We agreed, and Jasen and Thomas came out to do the job. They were very friendly and efficient. They answered all our questions, and did a good job of cleaning up the little bit of debris that came down during the operation. We know that many other people who live in our development have been quite pleased with the work that George Grove has done on our roofs! “

Frequently Asked Questions About Skylight Installation

Thinking about adding a skylight to your home, but not sure where to start? You are not alone. Below, our team has answered the questions Lancaster County homeowners ask us most often about skylight installation, from what the process looks like to how long it takes and what to expect after the job is done. If you do not see your question here, we are always happy to talk it through.



The cost of a skylight installation depends on several factors, including the size and style of the skylight, the type of roof it is being installed on, and whether any interior finishing work is involved. Fixed units are generally more straightforward to install than vented or solar-powered models. The best way to get an accurate number for your specific home is to request a free estimate. Our team will assess your space and walk you through the options that fit your goals and your budget.
Most skylight installations are completed in a single day. The timeline can vary depending on the complexity of the project, roof pitch, and whether any interior work is needed after the unit is set. Our team works efficiently and keeps your home protected throughout the process, so disruption is minimal. We will give you a clear timeline before work begins so you know exactly what to expect.
A properly installed skylight should not leak. The key is correct flashing and integration with your existing roofline, which is exactly where less experienced installers tend to cut corners. At George J. Grove & Son, Inc., our skylight installers follow a careful process to ensure every unit is sealed and flashed correctly from the start. We also install Velux skylights, which are engineered with leak resistance built into their design, giving you an added layer of protection beyond the installation itself.
In most cases, yes. Adding a skylight to your home involves structural modifications to the roof, which typically requires a building permit from your local municipality. Requirements vary by township and borough across Lancaster County and the surrounding areas so that the specifics will depend on your location. Our team is familiar with local building requirements and can help you understand what is needed before work begins.
Yes, when properly selected and installed. Velux skylights are available with low-E glass coatings that reduce heat transfer, helping your home stay cooler in summer and retain warmth in winter. Vented skylights add another layer of efficiency by allowing hot air to escape naturally, which reduces the load on your air conditioning system. Solar-powered venting models take this further by operating entirely on captured sunlight, adding comfort and airflow with no increase to your energy bill.
