When your skylight stops leaking, you stop worrying about water stains spreading across your ceiling or mold growing in your walls. You get back to enjoying natural light without the constant stress of checking for new damage after every storm.
A properly repaired skylight means lower energy bills too. No more heated or cooled air escaping through gaps and cracks. Your HVAC system works efficiently again, and you see the difference in your monthly utility costs.
You also protect your biggest investment. Water damage that starts small becomes expensive fast, but catching skylight problems early saves thousands in repairs down the road.
SkyLuxe Construction Inc has been serving Bohemia and Suffolk County homeowners as a full-service exterior home improvement specialist. We understand Long Island’s unique weather challenges – from nor’easters to summer storms – and how they affect your skylights.
We’re properly licensed and insured for Suffolk County work, which means you’re protected and we’re accountable. Our team focuses exclusively on residential exterior improvements, so we know exactly what Bohemia homeowners deal with when it comes to skylight problems.
Local expertise matters when you’re dealing with roof work. We know the building codes, the common issues homes face in this area, and the best materials that hold up to Long Island weather year after year.
We start with a complete inspection of your skylight and the surrounding roof area. This isn’t just looking at the obvious problem – we check the flashing, examine the seals, inspect the glass, and look for any signs of water damage that might have spread.
Once we identify the root cause, we explain exactly what needs to be done and why. No surprises, no upselling. Just straight talk about what it takes to fix your skylight properly.
The repair itself depends on what we find, but it might involve replacing worn flashing, resealing around the frame, fixing cracked glass, or addressing condensation issues. We use quality materials designed for Long Island’s climate and install everything according to manufacturer specifications. When we’re done, we test everything to make sure the repair holds up before we consider the job complete.

We handle every kind of skylight repair Bohemia homeowners face. Leaking skylights are the most common call we get, but we also fix cracked glass, replace broken flashing, repair vented skylight mechanisms, and solve condensation problems that cause foggy glass.
Suffolk County’s weather is tough on skylights. Winter freeze-thaw cycles crack seals, summer heat expands materials, and coastal storms test every seal and joint. We see these patterns year after year, so we know which repairs last and which ones fail.
Our service includes emergency leak fixes when storms hit, but we also handle planned maintenance and upgrades. Sometimes a skylight just needs new weatherstripping or a flashing adjustment. Other times, the smart move is upgrading to a more energy-efficient model that’ll save money long-term. We give you the honest assessment either way.
For emergency leaks, we typically respond the same day or within 24 hours, depending on weather conditions and the severity of the problem. We understand that water damage gets worse by the hour, so stopping the leak is always our first priority.
For non-emergency repairs, we usually schedule within a few days of your call. The actual repair time depends on what’s wrong – simple resealing might take a few hours, while replacing flashing or glass could take most of a day.
Weather plays a role too. We can do temporary emergency patches in light rain, but permanent repairs need dry conditions to ensure proper sealing and curing of materials.
The most common cause we see is failed flashing around the skylight frame. Long Island’s freeze-thaw cycles cause materials to expand and contract, which eventually breaks the seal between the flashing and the roof.
Worn-out seals and gaskets are another frequent problem. The rubber and silicone materials that keep water out deteriorate over time, especially with our coastal humidity and temperature swings.
Sometimes the problem isn’t the skylight at all – it’s condensation from poor ventilation or insulation issues. When warm, humid air hits a cold skylight surface, water forms and looks like a leak. We check for this during every inspection because the fix is completely different.
Most skylight repairs in Suffolk County run between $300 and $800, depending on what needs to be fixed. Simple resealing jobs are on the lower end, while flashing replacement or glass repair costs more.
Emergency leak repairs might have additional charges for same-day service, but we always give you the price upfront before starting work. No surprises on your bill.
If the repair costs approach what a new skylight would cost, we’ll tell you that too. Sometimes replacement makes more financial sense, especially if you’re dealing with an older skylight that’s likely to have more problems down the road.
Yes, we work on all major skylight brands including Velux, Andersen, Pella, and older brands like Insuladome and Wasco. Each manufacturer has different design quirks and common failure points, which is why experience matters.
We repair fixed skylights, vented skylights, and tubular skylights. We also handle both manual and electric opening mechanisms when they break or stop working properly.
Some older or custom skylights require special parts that take time to source. We’ll let you know upfront if that’s the case and give you options for temporary repairs while we wait for materials.
When we do the repair correctly with quality materials, most skylight repairs last for many years. However, skylights are exposed to harsh weather conditions, so they do require maintenance over time.
We use materials designed for Long Island’s climate and follow manufacturer installation guidelines. This gives you the best chance of a long-lasting repair that won’t fail in the next storm.
We also provide maintenance recommendations to help prevent future problems. Simple things like keeping gutters clean and checking seals annually can extend the life of any skylight repair significantly.
Skylight repairs involve working on your roof and dealing with waterproofing, which can be dangerous and complicated. One mistake can cause bigger leaks or even structural damage to your home.
Professional repairs also come with warranties and insurance protection. If something goes wrong with a DIY repair, you’re responsible for any damage. When we do the work, our insurance covers any issues.
Plus, we have access to professional-grade materials and tools that aren’t available to homeowners. The flashing, sealants, and gaskets we use are designed to last much longer than what you’d find at a hardware store.
