You’ll have complete peace of mind knowing your skylights are sealed tight and working properly. No more ceiling stains, no more buckets catching drips during storms, no more worrying about water damage to your expensive finishes and furnishings.
Most homeowners are surprised to learn that their “skylight leak” isn’t actually coming from the skylight itself. The real problem is usually damaged flashing, improper installation, or roof issues around the skylight that create water entry points.
That’s why our repairs last. We fix the actual source of the problem, not just the symptoms you can see.
We’ve been serving Cold Spring Harbor homeowners for years with professional exterior home improvement services. We’re a family-owned, licensed, and insured company that understands the unique challenges of maintaining homes in our area.
Cold Spring Harbor’s coastal location means your skylights face salt air, nor’easters, and temperature extremes that can break down seals and flashing over time. We use premium materials specifically chosen to handle Long Island’s harsh weather conditions.
Our team knows the difference between a quick patch job and a permanent repair. We take the time to do it right the first time because your home deserves better than temporary fixes.
We start with a comprehensive inspection of your skylight, flashing, seals, and surrounding roof to identify all issues—not just the obvious ones. Most contractors miss the real problems because they don’t look beyond the leak you can see.
You get a detailed explanation of what we found and a transparent quote before any work begins. No surprises, no hidden costs, no pressure to buy services you don’t need.
Our repairs include everything needed for a permanent fix: flashing replacement, seal repairs, weatherstripping updates, and any necessary roof work around the skylight. We use only premium-grade materials designed for Long Island’s weather extremes, then test everything to make sure it’s completely leak-free before we’re done.

Your skylight repair includes inspection, diagnosis, and permanent repair of all problem areas. We handle cracked skylight glass repair, damaged flashing, worn seals, foggy double-pane units, and vented skylight mechanism issues.
Cold Spring Harbor homes built in the 1950s and 60s often have original skylights that need attention. The coastal environment here accelerates wear on seals and metal components, especially on south and west-facing skylights that get the most weather exposure.
We work with all skylight brands and types, from basic fixed units to high-end vented models with remote controls. Every repair comes with a detailed explanation of what we fixed and how to maintain your skylights going forward, plus complete cleanup when we’re done.
Most skylight repairs in Cold Spring Harbor range from $225 to $800, depending on what needs to be fixed. Simple resealing services are on the lower end, while complete flashing replacement or glass replacement costs more.
The good news is that many skylight problems can be fixed affordably if caught early. Water stains on your ceiling or visible damage around the skylight frame are signs you should call us soon—waiting usually makes repairs more expensive.
We provide transparent, upfront pricing with no hidden costs. You’ll know exactly what the repair will cost before we start any work.
Three out of four skylight leaks we repair are actually caused by problems with the skylight itself or the flashing around it, not the roof. Common causes include cracked or fogged glass, worn weatherstripping, damaged flashing, and settlement that shifts the skylight frame.
Cold Spring Harbor’s coastal location makes these problems worse. Salt air corrodes metal components faster, and temperature swings cause materials to expand and contract, breaking seals over time.
The biggest misconception is that skylights just need new tar or flashing. Most of the time, the skylight unit itself has failed and needs professional repair or replacement to stop the leak permanently.
In many cases, yes. We can often repair cracked glass, replace worn seals, fix damaged flashing, and restore vented skylight mechanisms without full replacement. It depends on the age and condition of your skylight.
Our inspection will determine whether repair or replacement makes more sense for your situation. Sometimes a 20-year-old skylight with multiple problems is better replaced with a modern, energy-efficient unit that will last another 20+ years.
We’ll never push replacement if repair is the better option. Our goal is to give you the most cost-effective solution that solves your problem permanently.
Most skylight repairs take 2-4 hours to complete, depending on what needs to be fixed. Simple seal repairs or glass replacement can often be done in a morning, while complete flashing replacement might take most of a day.
Weather affects timing since we need dry conditions to do the work properly. We’ll schedule your repair for a clear day and let you know if we need to reschedule due to rain or high winds.
Emergency skylight leak fixes to stop active leaks can usually be done within 24-48 hours. We’ll do temporary weatherproofing if needed to protect your home until permanent repairs can be completed.
Yes, we repair all skylight types and brands, including Velux, Andersen, Pella, and older units from manufacturers that are no longer in business. We work on fixed skylights, vented units, tubular skylights, and custom installations.
Each skylight brand has different design characteristics and common failure points. Our experience with various manufacturers helps us diagnose problems quickly and source the right parts for your specific skylight.
Even if your skylight is old or from an obscure manufacturer, we can usually find a way to repair it or retrofit it with modern components that will extend its life significantly.
First, place buckets or tarps to catch water and protect your floors and furniture. If possible, get into your attic and look for where water is coming in—sometimes it’s not directly under the skylight.
Don’t try to go on the roof yourself, especially when it’s wet. Temporary fixes like tarps or caulk rarely work and can actually make the problem worse by trapping water in the wrong places.
Call us for emergency service. We can usually get to Cold Spring Harbor homes within 24-48 hours to stop active leaks and prevent further damage while we schedule permanent repairs.
