When your skylight stops leaking, everything changes. No more buckets catching drips during rainstorms. No more stained ceilings or warped drywall. No more wondering if that small leak will turn into thousands in damage.
You get back to enjoying natural light without the anxiety. Your home stays dry, your energy bills stay reasonable, and you stop worrying about what the next nor’easter might bring to Huntington.
The difference between a quick patch and a proper repair is years of peace of mind. We fix the root cause, not just the symptoms.
SkyLuxe Construction has been serving Suffolk County homeowners who demand quality exterior work. We understand how Huntington’s coastal weather – from nor’easters to summer storms – affects your skylights differently than inland areas.
We’re not general handymen trying to figure out your skylight. We specialize in exterior systems: roofing, siding, gutters, chimneys, and skylights. We see how they all work together, which means we fix problems other contractors miss.
When you call us, you’re getting specialists who’ve solved skylight problems from Huntington Bay to Cold Spring Harbor. We know which brands fail where, which installations hold up, and what actually works in our local climate.
First, we inspect the entire skylight system – not just where you see the leak. Most skylight problems aren’t where homeowners think they are. We check the flashing, seals, glass, frame, and how it connects to your roof structure.
Then we explain exactly what’s wrong and why. No confusing technical jargon, no pressure tactics. You’ll understand the problem and your options before we touch anything.
The repair itself depends on what we find. Sometimes it’s new flashing or resealing. Sometimes it’s replacing damaged glass or weatherstripping. Sometimes the whole unit needs replacement. We use the right fix for your specific situation, not the most expensive one.
After the work, we test everything and show you what we did. You’ll know your skylight is actually fixed, not just patched.

Every skylight repair includes a complete system evaluation. We don’t just fix the obvious problem – we identify what caused it and prevent it from happening again.
Our repairs cover flashing replacement, glass repair or replacement, seal renewal, weatherstripping updates, and structural adjustments. We work with all major skylight brands including Velux, Anderson, and Pella, and can source parts for older units other contractors can’t fix.
In Huntington, we see specific patterns: salt air corrosion from Long Island Sound, ice dam damage from nor’easters, and wind-driven rain infiltration. Our repairs account for these local conditions. We use materials rated for coastal exposure and install everything to handle Suffolk County’s weather extremes.
You also get our guarantee on all work. If the repair fails, we come back and make it right. No arguments, no excuses.
Most skylight repairs in Suffolk County run between $450 and $1,000, depending on what needs fixing. Simple resealing or weatherstripping replacement costs less. Flashing repair or glass replacement costs more.
The real question isn’t the upfront cost – it’s what happens if you don’t fix it. Water damage from a leaking skylight can cost thousands in interior repairs, plus potential mold remediation. A proper repair now prevents much bigger expenses later.
We always give you honest pricing upfront. No surprises, no hidden fees. You’ll know exactly what the repair costs and why before we start work.
Yes, we handle emergency skylight repairs year-round, including winter. A leaking skylight can’t wait for perfect weather, especially when ice and snow are making the problem worse.
Winter repairs require different techniques and materials rated for cold weather application. We’ve developed methods that work even in freezing conditions, though we may need to schedule around severe storms.
For non-emergency repairs, we often recommend waiting for better conditions when possible. But if your skylight is actively leaking and causing interior damage, we’ll get it stopped regardless of the weather outside.
A proper skylight repair should last 10-15 years or more, depending on the type of repair and local conditions. Quality flashing work often outlasts the skylight itself.
The key is fixing the root cause, not just the symptoms. Many “repairs” fail quickly because they only address what you can see, not what’s actually causing the problem. We diagnose the whole system and fix everything that needs attention.
Our repairs come with guarantees because we’re confident they’ll hold up. We use materials designed for Suffolk County’s coastal environment and install everything to manufacturer specifications – not shortcuts that fail in a few years.
Most skylight problems can be repaired effectively for much less than replacement cost. We only recommend replacement when the skylight is severely damaged or so old that parts aren’t available.
Replacement makes sense if your skylight is over 20 years old, has multiple problems, or if you want to upgrade to more energy-efficient models. But don’t let anyone pressure you into replacement if a repair will solve your problem.
We’ll give you honest recommendations based on your specific situation. Sometimes a $500 repair is smarter than a $3,000 replacement. Sometimes replacement is the better long-term investment. You’ll get the truth either way.
The most common cause is flashing failure – the metal sealing system around the skylight. Suffolk County’s coastal conditions accelerate corrosion, and ice expansion can crack even good flashing over time.
Poor installation is another major factor. Many skylights leak because they weren’t properly integrated with the roof system originally. The flashing wasn’t installed correctly, or the wrong materials were used for our climate.
Age and weather exposure eventually affect all skylights. Glass can crack from temperature changes, seals deteriorate from UV exposure, and frames can shift as the house settles. Regular maintenance prevents most problems, but Suffolk County’s harsh conditions mean skylights need more attention than in milder climates.
Yes, we provide emergency skylight repair throughout Suffolk County. A major leak can cause serious interior damage in just hours, especially during heavy storms.
Emergency repairs focus on stopping the water immediately, then scheduling proper permanent repairs when conditions allow. We carry materials for temporary weatherproofing and can often stop leaks the same day you call.
For true emergencies – water actively pouring through your skylight – we respond as quickly as possible. Non-emergency leaks usually get same-day or next-day service, depending on weather and our current schedule.
