Your home deserves more than another dark hallway or gloomy kitchen. When we install your skylight, you get natural light that transforms how your space feels without the headache of leaks or callbacks.
Think about walking into a room that’s actually bright during the day. No more flipping switches at noon or squinting to read. Your skylight becomes the feature that makes guests ask, “Did you renovate?” when really, you just let the sun do what it does best.
The difference isn’t just the light—it’s knowing your installation was done right the first time. No water stains on your ceiling six months later. No drafts in winter. Just reliable natural light that works exactly like it should.
We bring decades of exterior renovation experience to every skylight installation in Speonk and throughout Suffolk County. This isn’t a side business for us—it’s what we’ve built our reputation on.
Every installation gets personal oversight from our licensed professionals who understand Suffolk County’s weather patterns. We’ve seen what happens when skylights aren’t installed properly, and we’ve fixed plenty of other contractors’ mistakes.
You’re working with a family business that’s been serving Suffolk County homeowners long enough to know what works and what doesn’t. Our installations come with warranties because we stand behind our work, not because we have to.
First, we assess your roof structure and determine the best placement for maximum light while maintaining structural integrity. We’re looking at roof pitch, existing rafters, and how the skylight will integrate with your current roofing system.
Next comes the installation itself. We cut the opening precisely, install proper flashing that actually prevents leaks, and ensure the skylight is sealed correctly for Suffolk County’s weather conditions. The interior work includes framing the light shaft and finishing the ceiling to match your existing space.
After installation, we test everything and walk you through the completed work. You get a detailed warranty covering both the skylight and our installation. Most importantly, you get a skylight that performs exactly as promised—bringing in natural light without bringing in water.

Your skylight installation includes everything needed for a complete, professional job. We handle the structural assessment, proper flashing installation, interior finishing, and final sealing. Every component is selected for Suffolk County’s specific weather challenges.
Speonk homes face unique conditions with coastal weather patterns and temperature fluctuations that can stress improperly installed skylights. Our installations account for these local factors, using materials and techniques that perform reliably year after year.
You also get our comprehensive warranty covering both materials and workmanship. If anything goes wrong with your skylight installation, we fix it. That’s not just good business—it’s how we’ve built our reputation in Suffolk County for three generations.
Skylight installation costs in Speonk typically range from $1,500 to $4,000, depending on the size, type, and complexity of your installation. Fixed skylights are generally less expensive than vented models, and tubular skylights cost less than traditional skylights.
The final cost depends on your roof’s pitch, accessibility, interior finishing requirements, and the specific skylight you choose. We provide detailed written estimates that break down all costs—no surprises or hidden fees.
Remember that quality installation is crucial because repairs typically cost 3-4 times the original skylight price. Investing in professional installation from the start saves money and headaches long-term.
Not when installed properly. Leaking is the number one skylight problem, but it’s almost always caused by poor installation, not the skylight itself. Our installations include proper flashing, quality sealants, and techniques specifically designed for Suffolk County’s weather patterns.
We use stepped flashing that integrates with your existing roofing system and premium sealants that handle temperature fluctuations without cracking. Every installation is tested and comes with our leak-free warranty.
Suffolk County’s coastal weather can be challenging, but that’s exactly why we’ve developed installation methods that account for wind-driven rain, ice dams, and temperature swings. Your skylight will keep water out where it belongs.
Most skylight installations in existing roofs take one to two days, depending on the complexity and interior finishing required. Simple installations in accessible locations can often be completed in a single day.
The process involves cutting the roof opening, installing flashing and the skylight unit, then completing interior work like framing the light shaft and finishing the ceiling. Weather conditions can affect timing, so we schedule installations during favorable forecast windows.
We coordinate the work to minimize disruption to your daily routine. The roof opening is sealed the same day it’s created, so your home stays weather-tight throughout the installation process.
For most Speonk homes, we recommend fixed or vented skylights from quality manufacturers like Velux. Fixed skylights are ideal for bringing light into hallways, stairwells, or rooms where ventilation isn’t needed. Vented skylights work well in kitchens and bathrooms where you want both light and airflow.
Tubular skylights are excellent for smaller spaces or areas where traditional skylights aren’t practical due to roof structure. They’re also more affordable and easier to install in most situations.
The best choice depends on your specific room, roof structure, and goals. We assess each situation individually and recommend the skylight type that delivers the best results for your particular home and budget.
Yes, skylight installation typically requires building permits in Speonk and throughout Suffolk County. The permit ensures your installation meets local building codes and safety requirements. We handle all permit applications as part of our service.
The permit process involves submitting installation plans and having the work inspected to verify it meets structural and weatherproofing standards. This protects you by ensuring the work is done correctly and safely.
Don’t worry about the paperwork—we manage the entire permit process from application to final inspection. Our experience with local building departments means permits are processed efficiently without delays to your project.
Yes, properly installed skylights can significantly reduce lighting costs and provide natural heating during cooler months. Studies show skylights can reduce artificial lighting needs by up to 80% during daylight hours, which translates to lower electricity bills.
Modern energy-efficient skylights also provide insulation benefits that help maintain consistent indoor temperatures. In Suffolk County’s climate, this means reduced heating costs in winter and less strain on air conditioning during summer.
The key is choosing the right skylight for your specific situation and having it installed correctly. We select skylights with appropriate glazing and energy ratings for Suffolk County’s climate, ensuring you get maximum energy benefits from your investment.
