Coastal Homes, Family Houses, Renovations and New Estates
The Mornington Peninsula and Outer South have a wide mix of home styles. Frankston, Langwarrin, Mount Eliza, Mornington and Somerville include many established homes, tiled roofs and renovated floorplans. Coastal suburbs such as Mount Martha, Safety Beach, Dromana, Rosebud, Rye, Blairgowrie, Sorrento and Portsea often include Colorbond roofs, low-pitch roof sections, beach-house renovations and rooms where wall windows are limited.
Common skylight locations include hallways, kitchens, bathrooms, laundries, walk-in robes, stairwells and open-plan rear living areas. Natural light from above can make these areas feel brighter, cleaner and more usable throughout the day.
A properly selected VELUX skylight installation, sun tunnel or roof window can improve the feel of the room without changing the footprint of the home.

Where Skylights Work Best in Peninsula & Outer South Homes
Skylights work especially well where normal windows are limited, privacy is important or the centre of the home feels dark during the day.
Hallways
Long corridors can become brighter with a fixed skylight or sun tunnel installation.
Kitchens
A skylight above a kitchen island, benchtop or dining area can transform the feel of the home.
Bathrooms
Solar opening skylights can add daylight and ventilation while maintaining privacy.
Living Areas
Open-plan rear living areas often suit larger fixed skylights or flat roof skylights depending on the roof profile.
Walk-in Robes
Compact skylights or sun tunnels can make wardrobes easier to use during the day.
Laundries
Internal laundries often benefit from daylight, especially in townhouses and renovated floorplans.
Stairwells
A skylight above a stairwell can create a strong vertical light feature in double-storey homes.
Coastal Extensions
Rear and upstairs additions in Peninsula homes often benefit from skylights where wall windows are limited.

Correct Flashing for Peninsula & Outer South Roofs
Flashing is one of the most important parts of a skylight installation. It helps integrate the skylight with the roof and directs water away from the opening.
Mornington Peninsula and Outer South homes can have terracotta tiles, concrete tiles, corrugated metal, Colorbond, Trimdek, Klip-Lok, flat roof membranes and low-pitch roof sections. Each roof type may need a different flashing solution, especially on coastal homes where roof condition and exposure should be checked carefully.
- VELUX flashing and custom flashing options
- Custom Colorbond flashing for corrugated metal roof situations
- Trimdek and Klip-Lok profiles need profile-specific flashing advice
- Flat roof skylight flashing and kerb/upstand advice
- Old dome replacements need careful measurement and roof assessment
Send roof photos before choosing
Before choosing a skylight or flashing, send us your outside roof photos, inside ceiling photos, room photos, approximate skylight location and suburb.
