Hear from Our Customers
That water stain on your ceiling isn’t getting smaller. The bucket in your hallway isn’t a permanent solution. And hoping your skylight leak will fix itself isn’t a strategy.
Here’s what you actually want: to walk into that room and not even think about water damage. To hear rain and feel relaxed instead of anxious. To have a skylight that brings in light without bringing in weather.
When we repair your skylight properly, you get your peace of mind back. No more wondering if today’s storm will make things worse. Just a skylight that works like it should have from day one.
Most skylight problems in East Islip aren’t caused by age or weather. They’re caused by contractors who don’t understand how skylights actually work with Long Island’s climate.
We specialize in exterior home improvements throughout Suffolk County. We’re the contractors homeowners call when they need it done right the first time – or when they need someone to fix what went wrong the first time.
We’ve earned our reputation by understanding the real causes of skylight failures. Salt air corrosion, improper flashing installation, wrong sealant choices – we know what works in East Islip and what doesn’t.
Step one: we find the real problem. Not just where water is coming in, but why it’s coming in. We inspect flashing, examine seals, check glass integrity, and look at how everything connects to your roof structure.
Next, we explain what we found in terms you can understand. No technical jargon or pressure tactics. Just clear information about what’s broken and what it takes to fix it permanently.
The repair itself depends on your specific situation. Repairing leaking skylights might mean replacing damaged flashing, resealing glass panels, or fixing compromised weatherproofing. Whatever it takes, we use quality materials and guarantee our work.

Cracked skylight glass that lets water seep through. Damaged flashing around the edges. Seals that have failed after years of Suffolk County weather. Vented skylight mechanisms that don’t open or close properly.
East Islip’s coastal location creates unique challenges. Salt air accelerates corrosion. Temperature swings stress seals and joints. Storm-driven rain finds every weakness in improper installations.
We handle emergency skylight leak fixes when storms hit, plus planned repairs for problems you’ve been watching get worse. From simple skylight resealing services to complete flashing replacement, we have the right solution for your specific situation.
Skylight repair costs in East Islip typically range from $450 to $1,000, depending on what needs fixing. Simple resealing work costs less than replacing damaged flashing or cracked glass panels.
Your exact cost depends on the repair complexity, skylight accessibility, and materials needed. We provide upfront estimates with no hidden fees or surprise charges. What you see is what you pay.
The real value isn’t just stopping the leak. It’s preventing the water damage, mold problems, and structural issues that cost thousands more if left unchecked.
Most skylights can be repaired, even when they look beyond hope. We’ve saved skylights that other contractors wanted to tear out completely. But we’ll give you honest advice about when replacement makes more sense.
Leaking flashing, worn seals, and minor glass damage are usually repairable. Severely cracked glass, compromised frames, or skylights over 20 years old might be better candidates for replacement.
The decision comes down to long-term value. A proper repair should last years. If you’ll need another repair soon, replacement might be smarter financially.
The number one cause isn’t what most homeowners expect. It’s not the skylight itself – it’s improper installation or maintenance by previous contractors.
Flashing problems cause most leaks. When the metal barrier sealing your skylight to the roof is installed incorrectly, damaged during other work, or corroded by salt air, water finds a way in. Poor quality sealants that can’t handle our weather cycles fail quickly too.
Sometimes it’s maintenance neglect. Debris blocking drainage, cracked seals, or minor damage that grows into major problems. Catching issues early prevents expensive repairs later.
Most skylight repairs take between four hours and a full day. Simple seal replacement or minor flashing work finishes quickly. Complex repairs involving multiple components take longer.
Weather affects our timeline. We don’t work on roofs during dangerous conditions, and some materials need dry weather to cure properly. We’ll give you realistic expectations based on your specific repair and current conditions.
Quality takes precedence over speed. We’d rather spend extra time doing it right than rush through and have you call us back next season.
Yes, we respond to emergency skylight leaks in East Islip. When water is actively coming through your ceiling and causing damage, that’s not something you wait until next week to address.
Emergency repairs focus on immediate damage control – stopping the water intrusion and protecting your home’s interior. Sometimes this means temporary measures until we can complete permanent repairs safely.
Call 631-707-0172 for emergency situations. We’ll guide you through immediate damage control steps and get someone to your property as quickly as conditions allow.
Because we actually solve the problem instead of just masking symptoms. Too many contractors apply caulk around a leaking skylight and call it repaired. That’s not fixing anything – that’s creating a temporary patch that fails when you need it most.
We’re Suffolk County’s exterior specialists because we understand what works in our climate. We know different skylight brands and their common failure points. We use materials designed for Long Island’s coastal weather conditions.
Most importantly, we stand behind our work with real guarantees. Not because we have to, but because we know our repairs will hold up. When you hire us, you’re buying peace of mind, not just a service call.
