We handle permits, inspections, and cleanup so you don’t have to manage multiple contractors.In Remsenburg’s coastal climate, salt air and winter freeze-thaw cycles are hard on roofing materials.

We’re not just installing a skylight—we’re protecting your investment in your home.

Will my new skylight leak like my old one?

Not if it’s installed correctly. Most skylight leaks are caused by improper flashing installation, not the skylight itself. We use a multi-layer flashing system with marine-grade sealants designed for Suffolk County’s coastal weather.Our installation process includes step flashing, continuous flashing, and ice-and-water shield barriers that create multiple lines of defense against water intrusion. We also test every installation under simulated storm conditions before considering the job complete. That’s why we can offer our leak-free guarantee with confidence.

How long does skylight installation take?

Most skylight installations take 1-2 days, depending on roof complexity and weather conditions. Simple installations on accessible roofs can be completed in a single day, while complex installations requiring structural modifications may take two days.We schedule installations during favorable weather windows to ensure proper curing of sealants and adhesives. Day one typically involves cutting the opening and installing the structural components. Day two covers skylight placement, flashing, and final weatherproofing. We’ll give you a detailed timeline during your consultation.

What's the best skylight for Remsenburg's climate?

For Remsenburg’s coastal climate, we recommend double-pane, low-E glass skylights with argon gas fill for maximum energy efficiency. Ventilating skylights work well here because they help manage humidity during summer months.The frame material matters too. We typically use vinyl or fiberglass frames that won’t corrode in salt air, unlike aluminum frames that can deteriorate quickly near the coast. For south-facing installations, we often add factory-installed blinds to control heat gain during summer while maximizing light in winter.

Do I need permits for skylight installation?

Yes, skylight installation in Remsenburg requires building permits because it involves structural modifications to your roof. The permit process ensures your installation meets local building codes for safety and energy efficiency.We handle all permit applications and inspections as part of our service. The permit fee is typically $150-$300 and covers the plan review and final inspection. Having proper permits protects you during future home sales and ensures your homeowner’s insurance remains valid. Most permits are approved within 2-3 weeks.

Can skylights really reduce my energy bills?

Yes, properly installed skylights can reduce lighting costs by 30-50% in rooms where they’re installed. Energy-efficient skylights with low-E coatings also provide passive solar heating in winter, reducing heating costs.The key is proper placement and sizing. Skylights should be no more than 5-15% of your floor area to maximize light without creating excessive heat gain. We calculate the optimal size and placement during our consultation to ensure you get maximum energy savings. Many customers see $20-40 monthly savings on their electric bills.
