Who We Serve
Skylight Solutions for Every Residential Project
Serving homeowners, contractors, roofers, and architects with tailored skylight expertise across the Twin Cities.
At North Star Skylights, we understand that every skylight project starts with a different perspective. A homeowner may be looking to brighten a single room. A contractor might be working against a tight construction schedule. An architect could be designing an entire daylighting strategy. Whatever your role, we provide skylight solutions that support your goals, your project timeline, and your client expectations. And while North Star Skylights is focused on residential work, we also support select commercial and mixed-use projects through our extended capabilities.
As a VELUX Skylight Specialist, we offer certified installation, design support, replacement, and maintenance services—exclusively for residential skylights.

Skylights for Minnesota Homeowners
Natural light can completely change the feel of your home. It makes rooms brighter, improves your mood, and increases energy efficiency by reducing the need for artificial lighting. If you’re a homeowner looking to install, replace, or maintain skylights, we offer a full-service experience that takes the guesswork out of the process.
We start by understanding your home’s layout, lighting goals, and budget. From there, we guide you through skylight models, placement ideas, and accessory options that will make the most of your space. Our design support ensures your skylights are positioned for balanced light, privacy, and long-term performance.
Once your skylight is chosen, our certified installers handle the rest. We protect your home during the installation process, clean up afterward, and walk you through how everything works. And because we only install VELUX products, your new skylight will come with industry-leading features and be protected by a full warranty.
We also offer inspection and cleaning services for existing skylights, whether we installed them or not. If your skylight is foggy, drafty, or due for an upgrade, we’ll help you understand your options.
Homeowner benefits include:
- Design advice that matches your lifestyle and space
- Transparent quotes with no pressure or sales gimmicks
