You’ll walk into rooms that feel twice as large, bathed in natural light that cuts your electric bill month after month. No more switching on lights during the day. No more stuffy bathrooms or dark hallways.
The difference shows up immediately – spaces that were once cramped and dim become the rooms you actually want to spend time in. Your home feels more open, more valuable, and more comfortable year-round.
Most importantly, you won’t be dealing with water stains on your ceiling or emergency calls when it rains. That’s what happens when skylights are installed correctly the first time.
We’ve been handling exterior improvements in Suffolk County for decades. We’re not the new guys learning on your roof – we’re the family business that your neighbors have trusted for years.
We understand Sag Harbor’s coastal challenges. The salt air, the wind patterns, the way weather hits differently here than inland. Our installations account for these conditions because we’ve seen what happens when they don’t.
Every skylight we install comes with the kind of attention to detail that only comes from experience. We know which materials hold up, which techniques prevent problems, and how to do the job once so you never have to think about it again.
First, we assess your roof structure and discuss exactly where you want more light. We’ll show you options that work with your home’s layout and your budget, explaining what each choice means for performance and cost.
Next comes the precision work – cutting the opening, installing proper flashing, and mounting the skylight with the weatherproofing techniques that prevent leaks. We handle the interior finishing too, so you’re not left with an unfinished project.
The final step is our walkthrough where we show you exactly what we did and how to maintain your new skylight. You’ll know it’s done right because we test everything before we leave. No surprises, no callbacks, no problems down the road.

Fixed skylights work perfectly for living rooms and bedrooms where you want consistent natural light without ventilation. They’re energy-efficient and cost-effective for spaces that just need brightening.
Venting skylights are ideal for bathrooms and kitchens where you need both light and airflow. They help control humidity and remove cooking odors while bringing in fresh air. Manual or electric operation depending on your preference.
For smaller spaces like hallways or closets, tubular skylights channel sunlight through a reflective tube. They’re budget-friendly and perfect where traditional skylights won’t fit. All options come with proper flashing and weatherproofing designed for Sag Harbor’s coastal conditions.
Skylight installation in Sag Harbor typically ranges from $1,500 to $4,000 depending on the size, type, and complexity of the installation. Fixed skylights are the most economical option, while venting or electric skylights cost more due to additional features.
The total includes the skylight unit, professional installation, proper flashing, interior finishing, and our workmanship warranty. Factors like roof pitch, accessibility, and whether structural modifications are needed can affect the final price. We provide detailed estimates that break down all costs upfront so you know exactly what you’re paying for.
Not when it’s installed correctly. Skylight leaks are almost always the result of improper installation or inadequate flashing, not the skylight itself. We use advanced flashing techniques specifically designed for coastal conditions like those in Sag Harbor.
Our installations account for salt air, wind-driven rain, and temperature fluctuations that are common in this area. We seal every penetration point and use materials that won’t degrade in marine environments. Each installation includes a comprehensive warranty because we’re confident in our weatherproofing methods.
The key is working with contractors who understand coastal installation requirements, not just general roofing techniques.
Yes, we regularly install skylights on existing roofs throughout Sag Harbor. The process involves carefully cutting an opening in your roof deck, installing proper structural support if needed, and integrating the skylight with your existing roofing materials.
We assess your roof’s condition, age, and structure before starting work. Sometimes we recommend coordinating skylight installation with planned roof repairs or replacements for maximum efficiency and cost savings. Our team handles all aspects including permits, structural considerations, and interior finishing.
The installation typically takes one to two days depending on the complexity and number of skylights being installed.
Fixed skylights are designed purely for natural light – they don’t open and are the most energy-efficient and cost-effective option. They’re perfect for living rooms, bedrooms, or any space where you want consistent lighting without ventilation needs.
Venting skylights can open to provide both light and fresh air circulation. They’re ideal for bathrooms, kitchens, or any area where humidity control and air exchange are important. They come with manual operation or electric motors, and many electric models include rain sensors for automatic closing.
Both types offer the same energy savings and natural light benefits, but venting skylights provide the additional advantage of natural ventilation and temperature control.
Most roofs can support skylights, but it depends on your roof’s structure, age, and current condition. We perform a thorough assessment before any installation to ensure your roof can safely handle the modification.
We examine the rafter spacing, roof deck condition, and overall structural integrity. If additional support is needed, we handle those modifications as part of the installation process. Sometimes we discover issues like rot or damage that should be addressed before skylight installation.
Our assessment is included with every estimate, so you’ll know exactly what’s required before we start work. We never proceed with an installation unless we’re confident your roof can properly support it long-term.
Yes, properly installed skylights can significantly reduce your lighting costs and help with heating in winter months. Natural light eliminates the need for artificial lighting during daylight hours, which can account for 10-15% of your electric bill.
In Sag Harbor’s climate, skylights also provide passive solar heating during cooler months, reducing heating costs. Venting skylights offer additional savings by providing natural cooling in summer, reducing air conditioning usage. Energy-efficient glazing options maximize these benefits while preventing heat loss.
The exact savings depend on your home’s orientation, the number and size of skylights, and your current energy usage patterns. Most homeowners see noticeable reductions in their monthly utility bills within the first few months after installation.
