Your home becomes brighter, more energy-efficient, and significantly more comfortable. Natural light floods your living spaces, reducing your electricity bills while creating that warm, inviting atmosphere you’ve been wanting. You’ll notice improved air quality and ventilation, especially in bathrooms and kitchens where moisture and odors escape naturally.
The best part? You get all these benefits without the worry of leaks or water damage that plague poorly installed skylights. Our leak-free installation process means you can enjoy the natural light and energy savings without the constant concern about the next storm.
When your skylight is installed correctly from the start, you avoid those costly repair bills that can run three to four times the original unit cost. You’re investing in long-term comfort and peace of mind.
SkyLuxe Construction Inc isn’t just another contractor – we’re a family legacy serving Suffolk County homeowners for decades. Our team understands exactly what Ocean Beach homes need because we live and work in this community.
We’ve seen what happens when skylights aren’t installed properly. The leaks, the water damage, the frustration of not knowing where the problem is coming from. That’s why we focus on getting it right the first time, using proper flashing techniques and quality materials that can handle Suffolk County’s harsh weather conditions.
Every skylight installation receives personal oversight from our experienced team. We’re fully licensed and insured, and we stand behind our work with guarantees that give you complete peace of mind.
First, we assess your roof structure and determine the best placement for optimal light and minimal heat gain. We consider your roof’s slope, orientation, and any potential obstacles that could affect performance.
Next, we carefully cut the opening and frame it properly, ensuring structural integrity throughout the process. Our team installs high-quality flashing systems – the critical component that prevents leaks. We use proven techniques that have kept our clients’ homes dry for years.
Finally, we install the skylight unit itself, seal everything properly, and complete any interior finishing work needed. Before we leave, we walk you through the installation and explain how to maintain your new skylight for maximum performance. You’ll know exactly what to expect and how your investment will perform for years to come.

Your skylight installation includes everything needed for long-term performance. We provide proper structural framing, professional-grade flashing systems, and quality skylight units designed for Long Island’s climate conditions.
Ocean Beach homes face unique challenges with coastal weather patterns and salt air exposure. Our installation process accounts for these local conditions, using materials and techniques that resist corrosion and maintain their seal integrity over time.
We handle all the details – from building permits to interior finishing work. If your skylight requires a light shaft through an attic space, we frame and finish that too. The installation cost typically ranges from $1,000 to $4,000 depending on the complexity and type of unit, but you’ll know the exact investment upfront with no surprises.
Skylight installation in Ocean Beach typically costs between $1,000 to $4,000, depending on the type of unit and complexity of the installation. The price increases for vented skylights, solar-powered units, or electrical models with remote controls.
The total investment includes the skylight unit, professional installation, proper flashing, any necessary structural work, and interior finishing. While this might seem significant upfront, remember that replacement costs are usually three to four times higher than getting it done right the first time. We provide detailed estimates so you know exactly what you’re investing in before we start.
Skylight leaks are almost always caused by improper installation, particularly with the flashing system. The flashing is the metal material that seals your skylight to the roof, and when it’s installed incorrectly or with inferior materials, water finds its way in.
We eliminate leak problems by using professional-grade flashing techniques and quality materials designed for Long Island’s weather conditions. Our installation process includes proper overlap patterns, quality sealants, and attention to details that prevent water intrusion. We’re so confident in our leak-free installation that we guarantee it. When skylights are installed correctly from the start, leaks simply don’t happen.
The best skylight for your Ocean Beach home depends on your specific needs and roof configuration. Fixed skylights work well for areas where you just want natural light, like hallways or living rooms. Ventilating skylights are excellent for bathrooms and kitchens where you need both light and moisture control.
For homes with attic spaces between the roof and ceiling, tubular skylights can bring natural light to areas where traditional skylights won’t work. We assess your home’s layout, your lighting goals, and your roof’s orientation to recommend the option that gives you the best performance. South and west-facing installations collect more direct sunlight, while north and east-facing units provide gentler, more consistent lighting.
Most skylight installations are completed in one to two days, depending on whether interior work is needed. Simple installations on accessible roofs with no attic complications can often be finished in a single day.
If we need to build a light shaft through an attic space or do extensive interior finishing work, the project may extend to two days. Weather conditions can affect timing, as we won’t install skylights during rain or storms. We coordinate the work to minimize disruption to your daily routine and always clean up thoroughly when we’re finished. You’ll have a clear timeline before we start so you know what to expect.
Yes, building permits are typically required for skylight installations in most areas of Suffolk County, including Ocean Beach. The permit ensures that the installation meets local building codes and safety requirements.
We handle the permit application process for you as part of our service. This includes submitting the necessary plans and specifications to the local building department. Having proper permits protects you if you ever sell your home and ensures that the work meets all structural and safety standards. The permit cost is usually minimal compared to the overall project investment, and it’s an important step in doing the job correctly.
Properly installed skylights require minimal maintenance, but a few simple steps keep them performing at their best. Clean the glass surface periodically to maintain maximum light transmission – this is especially important in coastal areas like Ocean Beach where salt spray can accumulate.
Check the flashing and seals annually, particularly after severe weather. Look for any signs of damage or wear around the skylight frame. Keep gutters and roof areas around the skylight clear of debris that could cause water backup. Most quality skylights are designed to be virtually maintenance-free for many years. We provide specific maintenance guidelines for your particular unit and are always available if you have questions about keeping your skylight in optimal condition.
