Skylight installation costs typically range from $1,000 to $4,000 depending on the size, type, and complexity of your roof. Fixed skylights are generally less expensive than vented models, and larger or premium skylights cost more.
The total includes the skylight unit itself, which ranges from $500 to $2,500, plus installation costs of $500 to $1,500. Factors affecting price include roof accessibility, structural modifications needed, and interior finishing requirements.
We provide detailed, transparent quotes that break down all costs upfront, so you know exactly what you’re paying for with no hidden fees or surprises.
Properly installed skylights don’t leak when the flashing, sealing, and structural work are done correctly. Most skylight leaks result from improper installation, damaged flashing, or worn seals that weren’t maintained.
We use premium flashing systems and weatherproofing materials specifically designed for Long Island’s weather conditions. Our installation process includes multiple leak-prevention measures and thorough testing before we consider the job complete.
Every installation comes with our leak-free guarantee because we’re confident in our materials and installation methods. If you experience any leaks related to our workmanship, we’ll return to fix the problem at no additional cost.
Yes, we regularly install skylights in existing roofs throughout Quogue and Suffolk County. The process involves cutting an opening, installing proper structural framing, and integrating the skylight with your existing roofing system.
We start by evaluating your roof structure, rafter spacing, and any obstacles like electrical or plumbing that might affect placement. Most homes can accommodate skylight installation with proper planning and structural modifications.
The key is working with experienced contractors who understand how to maintain your roof’s structural integrity while creating the opening. We handle all permits, structural work, and ensure the installation meets local building codes.
Energy-efficient, double-pane skylights with Low-E coatings work best for Long Island’s varied climate. These provide excellent insulation while allowing natural light, helping control heating and cooling costs year-round.
For areas prone to moisture like bathrooms or kitchens, vented skylights offer the added benefit of humidity control. Fixed skylights work well for living areas where you want maximum light without ventilation.
We recommend brands like Velux that are specifically engineered for coastal climates and offer features like automatic rain sensors, integrated blinds, and impact-resistant glazing to handle everything from summer storms to winter weather.
Most residential skylight installations take one to two days, depending on the complexity of your roof and whether structural modifications are needed. Simple installations on accessible roofs can often be completed in a single day.
More complex installations requiring structural work, multiple skylights, or challenging roof access may take two to three days. We provide realistic timelines upfront and keep you informed throughout the process.
Weather can affect scheduling, especially for roof work, so we build flexibility into our timeline. The goal is completing quality work that lasts, not rushing through installation and creating problems later.
Yes, properly installed energy-efficient skylights can significantly reduce lighting costs and help with heating in winter months. Natural light eliminates the need for artificial lighting during daylight hours, reducing electricity usage.
In winter, skylights capture solar heat that helps warm your home naturally. Modern skylights with Low-E coatings and insulated frames prevent heat loss while maximizing solar gain when you want it.
The actual savings depend on your skylight placement, size, and your home’s current energy efficiency. Most homeowners see noticeable reductions in their electric bills, especially in rooms that previously required artificial lighting during the day.
