Sunrise Roof Pros provides professional skylights in Sunrise, FL for residential and commercial properties across west Broward County. A skylight on a tile roof is a hole in the water plane with a lid over it. Whether it leaks is decided by how its curb and apron are woven into the underlayment, not by the glass, which is why replacing the unit alone so often fixes nothing.
Curb-mounted is what we install on tile. A built-up curb carries the unit clear of the tile field, an apron flashing goes down over the base plies on the up-slope side and under them on the down-slope side, and the tile is then set off the curb so water is thrown around it. Deck-mounted units designed for shingles do not belong in a tile field.
We argue against acrylic domes on any roof you intend to keep. They yellow, they craze, and the seal at the aluminum frame gives up in Florida ultraviolet light long before the curb does, so you are back on the roof in a decade. Laminated glass in a thermally broken frame costs more once and stops the conversation. On an impact-rated unit you also get a product approval a Broward inspector will accept.
Condensation gets blamed on leaks constantly. A cold glass surface in a humid house drips down the shaft and stains the drywall exactly where a leak would, and the way to tell them apart is timing: a leak follows rain, condensation follows a run of humid days and a hard-working air conditioner. A vented, insulated shaft usually cures it. A hose test settles which one you have before anyone quotes a new unit.
During a relay or reroof, an old skylight is the one item we push you to replace whether it is leaking or not. The unit is already surrounded by open membrane, the labor is already on the roof, and reinstalling a twenty-year-old frame into brand new underlayment guarantees that the first failure in the new assembly is the thing you saved money on.
For a dark interior room with no roof access line, a tubular daylight device is the honest cheaper answer. It needs a small deck penetration, a proper tile flashing kit, and no structural work in the ceiling, and it delivers usable light for a fraction of a glass unit. It is not a view, and we will tell you that before you order one.
Our licensed and insured team brings the right materials and equipment to every job — two-ply tile underlayment with a mineral-surfaced cap sheet, RAS 118 mortar-set hip and ridge, RAS 120 mechanically fastened tile, tin-capped base sheet fastening on a 12-inch grid, eave riser and anti-ponding strip, two-component polyurethane tile adhesive — and backs the work with a written workmanship warranty. We serve Sunrise and nearby communities including Plantation, Davie, Weston, Tamarac.

Materials, equipment and how we do skylights
The difference between skylights that lasts and skylights that gets redone in three years is almost always preparation and materials, not the finish you see on day one. We work with two-ply tile underlayment with a mineral-surfaced cap sheet, RAS 118 mortar-set hip and ridge, RAS 120 mechanically fastened tile, tin-capped base sheet fastening on a 12-inch grid, spec them to the job instead of to the invoice, and write the material grades into the free estimate so you know exactly what you are buying.
Every Sunrise job runs the same way: site walk and measurements, written scope and fixed price, protection of the surrounding area, then the work itself with a daily clean-up. Years of roofing work in west Broward County means we have already met whatever your property is going to throw at us — awkward access, older construction, an HOA with opinions.

Why Sunrise Chooses Sunrise Roof Pros
- ✓We quote from an opened assembly, lifting tile at valleys, penetrations and field corners rather than pricing from a drone photograph.
- ✓Every proposal names the underlayment system, the tile attachment standard and the Miami-Dade Notice of Acceptance numbers we are working to.
- ✓Deck repair is a written unit rate with an allowance, so soft plywood found after tear-off is not a surprise change order.
- ✓We will tell you when a repair beats a replacement, and we will decline tile sealing packages and coatings sold as underlayment substitutes.
The standards behind skylights
Quality here is not a matter of opinion — it is written down.
