You get more than just a hole in your roof. You get natural light that transforms dark spaces into bright, inviting rooms while cutting your electric bills. Your home stays comfortable year-round with improved ventilation that lets hot air escape during summer months.
No more relying on artificial lighting during the day. No more stuffy rooms that trap heat and cooking odors. Just clean, natural light that makes your space feel larger and more welcoming while adding real value to your Ronkonkoma home.
The difference is in the installation. When skylights are installed correctly with proper flashing and weatherproofing, they perform exactly as intended for decades without the leak problems that plague poorly installed units.
We’ve been serving Ronkonkoma and Suffolk County homeowners for decades, specializing in exterior home improvements that withstand Long Island’s challenging weather. We understand the unique demands of coastal humidity, winter freeze-thaw cycles, and summer heat that can make or break a skylight installation.
Our family-owned business combines traditional craftsmanship with modern installation techniques. Every project receives personal oversight because we know that proper installation the first time prevents costly repairs and replacements down the road.
Located right here in Suffolk County, we’ve seen what works and what fails when it comes to skylight installations in our local climate. That experience translates into installations that perform reliably for years, not months.
First, we assess your roof structure and discuss placement options that maximize light while considering your home’s layout. We measure carefully and check for any structural considerations that affect the installation.
Next comes the precision work. We cut the roof opening to exact specifications, install proper underlayment, and position your skylight with professional-grade flashing that creates a watertight seal. Every step follows manufacturer specifications and local building codes.
The interior work includes framing the light shaft if needed, finishing the drywall, and ensuring everything looks seamless from inside your home. We clean up thoroughly and walk through the completed installation with you to ensure everything meets your expectations.
You end up with a skylight that brings natural light into your space without the leak concerns that come with rushed or improper installations.
