Financing & Rebates
Financing & Rebates for Skylight Projects
Helping homeowners across the Twin Cities brighten their homes—without stretching their budgets.
Adding or replacing a skylight is a meaningful investment in your home’s comfort, style, and energy performance. But that doesn’t mean it has to be out of reach. At North Star Skylights, we help you take advantage of financing, rebates, and tax incentives that make it easier to get the skylight you want, when you want it.
Whether you’re planning a full replacement, adding natural light to a single room, or upgrading to solar-powered models, we’ll guide you through your options and help you find the most cost-effective path forward.
Skylight Financing Options
We understand that homeowners sometimes delay skylight projects because of the upfront cost, even when a leaking, damaged, or outdated skylight needs attention. That’s why North Star Skylights partners with Synchrony to offer flexible financing options for qualifying homeowners.
Financing can make it easier to move forward with your project while keeping more of your savings available for other needs. If approved, financing may allow you to:
-
Pay for your project over time with manageable monthly payments
-
Complete a needed skylight project sooner
-
Avoid putting a large project expense on a high-interest credit card
-
Preserve savings for other household expenses or improvements
Financing is available for eligible North Star Skylights projects, including skylight installation and skylight replacement.
Financing Through Synchrony
North Star Skylights partners with Synchrony to provide consumer financing options for qualifying projects. Depending on credit approval and the promotional offers available at the time of purchase, you may be able to spread the cost of your skylight project over time rather than paying the entire amount upfront.
Our team can help connect you with the appropriate financing resources as part of the project-planning process and explain what to expect when applying.

Financing is subject to credit approval, and available terms and promotions may vary.
A Note About Promotional Financing
Some Synchrony promotional offers may be structured as “no interest if paid in full” within a specified promotional period. With these offers, if the promotional balance is not paid in full by the end of that period, interest may be charged from the original purchase date.
Be sure to review the specific terms, interest rates, minimum payment requirements, and promotional period associated with your financing offer before proceeding.
Local Utility Incentives and Energy Programs
Some Minnesota utility providers offer energy-efficiency rebates or green home upgrade incentives that may apply to solar-powered skylights, especially when paired with other upgrades like attic insulation or HVAC improvements.
While these programs vary by region and change frequently, we’ll help you explore available options based on your location and scope of work. Our team stays current with rebate programs in the Twin Cities and can direct you to the most up-to-date information.
VELUX Promotions and Seasonal Rebates
Throughout the year, VELUX occasionally offers seasonal promotions or product rebates. These may include discounts on installation, bundles of skylights with blinds, or incentives for upgrading to solar-powered models.
As a VELUX Skylight Specialist, North Star Skylights receives early notice of these promotions and can pass along the savings to you. Be sure to ask about any active offers during your consultation—we’ll let you know if you qualify and how to apply.

Skylights: A Smart Investment in Comfort and Efficiency
Skylights do more than brighten your home. They can help lower your utility bills, improve indoor air quality, and add measurable value to your property. Homes with updated, high-efficiency skylights often see improved resale appeal and reduced energy costs thanks to modern insulation, better ventilation, and automated climate controls.
Replacing an old skylight also protects your home from water damage, drafts, and UV exposure—saving you money on repairs and cooling costs over time. With solar-powered options, you can add these benefits while reducing your reliance on electricity altogether.
The return on investment is real. And with the right financial tools, it’s easier to get started.
