Contractors

SolBright Skylights has been in business since 1993 and has completed 60,000+ Solatube installations.

Why do Contractors Include Tubular Daylighting?
Tubular daylighting is an upgrade that homeowners understand immediately because it solves a practical problem: dark spaces. Contractors use Solatube systems to add measurable value without introducing a complicated design-build scope.
Common reasons contractors include Solatube tubular daylighting:
- High perceived value: The visual “before/after” is easy for clients to appreciate.
- Design flexibility: Works well for interior rooms and tight layouts.
- Efficient coordination: A focused specialty scope that can be scheduled cleanly.
- Low regret upgrade: Homeowners tend to use and notice the improvement daily.
If your goal is to improve livability and client satisfaction while staying aligned with budget and timeline, tubular daylighting is often one of the strongest “small upgrade, big impact” options.

Where Tubular Daylighting Fits Best in Your Projects
SolBright Skylights supports contractors across remodels, additions, and new construction. The most common applications include:
Interior remodels + refresh projects
When walls aren’t moving and windows aren’t changing, daylighting can still be transformed. Solatube systems are a strong fit for:
- Hallways and interior corridors
- Bathrooms and powder rooms
- Closets, pantries, and laundry rooms
- Stairwells and landings
Kitchens and living spaces with “shadow zones”
Many layouts have areas that remain dim even with decent window coverage. Tubular daylighting helps balance the light distribution so the room feels brighter throughout.
New builds and pre-close upgrade packages
Tubular daylighting can be positioned as an upgrade that improves the “finished” feeling of the home—especially in interior spaces that otherwise rely on daytime electric lighting.
Partnership Options for Contractors
SolBright Skylights can support different ways of working, depending on project type and who owns the client relationship.
Option 1: Contractor-led project, SolBright Skylights executes specialty scope
You keep the homeowner relationship and overall schedule. SolBright Skylights completes the daylighting scope and coordinates timing and access through your team.
Option 2: Referral support
You refer the daylighting scope to SolBright Skylights and we handle consultation, selection, and installation end-to-end—keeping you informed for scheduling and sequencing.
Option 3: Coordinated scheduling for tight timelines
For projects with compressed schedules, we align around the most practical installation window so the work integrates cleanly with other trades.
How SolBright Skylights supports contractors
Contractors need specialty partners who keep scope tight and coordination easy. SolBright Skylights is structured for that.
Clear scope and predictable handoff
We define what is included, what the site requirements are, and how the work will be sequenced—so you can keep the project moving without ambiguity.
Design guidance that reduces change orders
Tubular daylighting performance depends on correct placement, tube routing, and interior finish selection. We help make these decisions early so expectations are aligned before installation begins.
Professional installation execution
SolBright Skylights installs the system with attention to roof integration, clean workmanship, and a polished interior result. This protects your reputation and reduces callbacks.
Communication that supports your workflow
We can coordinate directly with your PM/superintendent, or align through the homeowner—depending on how you run your projects.
Florida Daylighting for High-Wind Regions (HVHZ)
