When your skylight stops leaking, everything changes. No more ceiling stains spreading across your rooms. No more buckets catching drips during storms. No more worrying about what’s happening inside your walls while you’re away.
You get back to enjoying the natural light your skylight was meant to provide. Your energy bills drop because heated and cooled air stays where it belongs. Your home’s structure stays sound, and your peace of mind returns.
Most importantly, you stop throwing money at temporary fixes that never work. Our repairs address the root cause, so you can finally cross “skylight problems” off your worry list permanently.
We’ve been solving skylight problems for Fire Island homeowners who need repairs that actually work. We’re not the guys who slap some caulk around the edges and hope for the best.
We understand Fire Island’s unique challenges. The salt air, the coastal storms, the temperature swings that make skylights expand and contract. These conditions demand expertise, not guesswork.
Our team is fully licensed and insured, and we’ve built our reputation on doing what others couldn’t: permanently stopping skylight leaks. When other contractors have failed, Fire Island homeowners call us to get it done right.
First, we inspect everything. Not just the obvious leak spot, but the flashing, seals, surrounding roof materials, and the skylight’s overall condition. Most leaks aren’t coming from where you think they are.
We explain exactly what we found and what needs to be fixed before any work begins. No surprises, no upselling, just honest assessment of what it takes to solve your problem permanently.
Then we complete the repair using premium materials designed for Long Island’s weather extremes. We handle flashing replacement, seal repairs, weatherstripping updates, and any necessary roof work around the skylight. Everything gets tested to make sure it’s actually leak-free before we clean up and leave.

Your skylight repair includes everything needed for a permanent fix. We don’t just patch the obvious problem and leave you hoping it holds.
Fire Island’s coastal environment is particularly hard on skylights. The salt air accelerates corrosion of flashing and seals. Storm winds drive rain horizontally into places it normally wouldn’t reach. Temperature swings from ocean breezes to summer heat cause materials to expand and contract more than inland locations.
We account for all of these local factors in every repair. Our materials are chosen specifically for coastal conditions, and our installation techniques reflect decades of experience working on Fire Island properties. You get a repair that’s built to last in your specific environment, not a generic fix that might work somewhere else.
Skylight repair costs in Suffolk County typically range from $378 to $472 for basic repairs, though complex issues can cost more. The final price depends on what’s actually causing your leak and how extensive the damage is.
Most homeowners are surprised to learn that the majority of skylight leaks aren’t caused by the skylight itself. Damaged flashing, improper installation, or roof issues around the skylight are often the real culprits. That’s why we start every job with a comprehensive inspection to identify the root cause.
We provide transparent pricing with detailed explanations of what needs to be fixed before any work begins. No hidden costs or surprise charges after we’re already on your roof.
Fire Island’s coastal environment creates unique challenges for skylights. Salt air accelerates the corrosion of metal flashing and deterioration of seals. Storm winds drive rain horizontally into places it normally wouldn’t penetrate.
The temperature swings from cool ocean breezes to intense summer heat cause skylight materials to expand and contract more dramatically than in inland locations. Over time, this constant movement breaks down seals and loosens connections.
Additionally, Fire Island’s exposure to nor’easters and tropical storms means skylights face more severe weather events than most Long Island locations. These factors combine to make professional installation and repair even more critical for lasting results.
Most skylights can be repaired if the glass is intact and the frame is structurally sound. We can fix issues with flashing, seals, weatherstripping, and minor frame problems without full replacement.
However, if your skylight has cracked glass, a warped frame, or has been leaking for so long that surrounding roof structure is compromised, replacement might be more cost-effective. We’ll give you honest recommendations based on what we find during our inspection.
Three out of four skylight leaks we see are actually caused by skylight failure rather than flashing issues, contrary to what many homeowners assume. Our thorough inspection process identifies the real source of your problem so you get the right solution the first time.
Most skylight repairs can be completed in one day, weather permitting. Simple seal repairs or weatherstripping replacement might only take a few hours, while complex flashing repairs could take a full day.
We understand that skylight leaks are often urgent problems, especially during storm season. That’s why we prioritize emergency repairs and work efficiently to get your home protected as quickly as possible.
The timeline can be affected by the extent of damage, weather conditions, and whether any roof decking needs repair. We’ll give you a realistic timeframe during our initial inspection so you know what to expect.
Yes, we stand behind our skylight repairs with a guarantee. We’re confident in our workmanship because we address the root cause of leaks rather than just treating symptoms.
Our comprehensive inspection process identifies all contributing factors, not just the obvious leak point. We use premium materials designed for Long Island’s coastal conditions and proven installation techniques developed through years of experience.
If a leak reoccurs due to our workmanship, we’ll return to make it right at no additional cost. That’s the level of confidence we have in our repair methods and the quality of materials we use.
If your skylight starts leaking during a storm, your immediate priority is protecting your home’s interior. Place buckets or tarps to catch water and move furniture or belongings away from the leak area.
Don’t attempt to climb on your roof during bad weather – it’s dangerous and you likely can’t make effective repairs in storm conditions anyway. Most emergency “fixes” during storms are temporary at best and can sometimes make the problem worse.
Call us as soon as it’s safe to do so. We provide emergency response for urgent skylight issues and can often get to Fire Island properties quickly to assess the damage and provide temporary protection until permanent repairs can be completed.
