When your skylight starts leaking, every day you wait means more water seeping into your walls, ceiling, and insulation. You’re looking at potential mold growth, rotting wood, and thousands in interior damage repairs.
We fix skylight leaks permanently the first time. Our Suffolk County team handles everything from minor seal repairs to complete flashing replacement, so you never have to worry about that drip again.
You get back to enjoying natural light in your home without the constant stress of checking for water stains or placing buckets during storms.
We’ve been solving skylight problems for Suffolk County families since day one. We’re not the guys who show up, slap some caulk around the edges, and call it fixed.
We’re a family-owned business that understands Copiague’s weather patterns, from those brutal winter freeze-thaw cycles that crack flashing to summer storms that test every seal. Our team knows exactly how Long Island’s climate affects skylights and what it takes to make repairs that actually last.
When you call us, you’re getting contractors who live and work in your community, with a reputation we’ve built one satisfied neighbor at a time.
First, we inspect everything – not just the obvious problem area. We examine your skylight glass, flashing, seals, and surrounding roof materials to find the real source of the leak. Most skylight “repairs” fail because contractors only fix what they can see.
Next, we explain exactly what we found and give you a transparent quote before any work begins. No surprises, no upselling – just honest assessment of what needs to be done.
Then we complete the repair using premium materials designed for Long Island’s weather. We test everything thoroughly before we leave, so you know your skylight is completely leak-free and ready for the next storm.

We handle the full spectrum of skylight issues Copiague homeowners face. Cracked glass that lets water pour in during storms. Damaged flashing that’s failed after years of freeze-thaw cycles. Foggy skylights that block your natural light. Broken seals that let drafts drive up your energy bills.
Suffolk County’s coastal climate is particularly tough on skylights. Salt air accelerates corrosion of metal components, while temperature swings cause materials to expand and contract, creating gaps where water can penetrate.
Our repair services include complete flashing replacement, glass repair and replacement, seal restoration, and emergency leak fixes. We use materials specifically chosen to withstand Long Island’s weather patterns, from hurricane-force winds to ice storms that would destroy inferior repairs.
Skylight repair costs in Copiague typically range from a few hundred dollars for simple seal repairs to $1,500-$3,000 for complex flashing replacement or glass repair. The exact cost depends on your skylight’s size, type, location on your roof, and the extent of damage.
Many homeowners are surprised to learn that what looks like a major problem often has an affordable solution. For example, condensation issues that seem like leaks might only need improved ventilation or new weatherstripping.
We always provide free inspections and transparent quotes, so you know exactly what you’re paying for before any work begins. Our goal is to give you the most cost-effective solution that actually solves the problem long-term.
Yes, we perform emergency skylight repairs year-round in Suffolk County, including winter months. However, the approach differs depending on weather conditions and the type of repair needed.
For emergency leaks during winter storms, we can install temporary weatherproof barriers to stop immediate water damage, then schedule permanent repairs when conditions improve. Simple repairs like seal replacement can often be completed even in cold weather using specialized materials designed for low-temperature application.
Complex repairs involving flashing replacement or structural work are best scheduled for milder weather to ensure optimal material performance and worker safety. We’ll always recommend the safest, most effective approach for your specific situation and timeline.
Professional skylight repairs using quality materials should last 10-15 years or more in Suffolk County’s climate. The lifespan depends on the type of repair, materials used, and local weather conditions.
Flashing repairs using premium metal flashing and proper installation techniques typically last the longest. Seal repairs may need attention sooner, especially on older skylights where multiple components are aging simultaneously.
We warranty our repair work and use materials specifically chosen for Long Island’s challenging weather patterns. Regular maintenance, like annual inspections and prompt attention to minor issues, significantly extends the life of any skylight repair.
The most common cause of skylight leaks in Suffolk County is damaged or deteriorated flashing – the metal barrier that seals your skylight to the roof. Long Island’s freeze-thaw cycles cause flashing to expand and contract, eventually creating gaps where water can penetrate.
Other frequent causes include cracked or broken glass, failed seals around the skylight frame, and improper installation that doesn’t account for local weather patterns. Sometimes what appears to be a skylight leak is actually a roof problem near the skylight that’s allowing water to run down and appear to come from the skylight itself.
Age is also a factor – skylights typically need attention every 10-15 years as seals deteriorate and components wear out. The key is addressing problems early before they cause expensive interior damage.
Absolutely. We provide 24/7 emergency skylight repair services throughout Suffolk County, including Copiague. When your skylight is actively leaking during a storm, every hour matters in preventing water damage to your home’s interior.
Our emergency service includes immediate temporary repairs to stop water intrusion, followed by permanent solutions once weather conditions allow. We carry emergency materials and weatherproofing supplies to handle urgent situations quickly and effectively.
Emergency calls are prioritized based on severity – active leaks causing interior damage get immediate response, while minor issues can typically be scheduled within 24-48 hours. We understand that skylight problems don’t wait for convenient times.
The decision depends on your skylight’s age, condition, and the extent of damage. Skylights under 10 years old with isolated problems like damaged flashing or failed seals are usually good candidates for repair.
Skylights over 15 years old, especially those with multiple issues like cracked glass, corroded flashing, and failed seals, are often more cost-effective to replace. Older skylights may also lack modern energy efficiency features that can reduce your heating and cooling costs.
During our inspection, we’ll assess your skylight’s overall condition and provide honest recommendations. Sometimes a repair that costs $800 makes perfect sense; other times spending $1,200 on replacement gives you decades of trouble-free performance. We’ll explain all your options so you can make the best decision for your situation and budget.
