When your skylight stops leaking, everything changes. No more scrambling for buckets when storms hit. No more stained ceilings or warped floors. No more lying awake during rainstorms wondering if water is seeping into your walls.
You get real peace of mind knowing your home is protected. Your energy bills drop because heated and cooled air isn’t escaping through gaps. And you can actually enjoy the natural light your skylight was meant to provide instead of dreading the next nor’easter.
Most skylight repairs cost between $300-$1,150 – a fraction of what you’ll spend fixing water damage to your drywall, flooring, and belongings if you wait. We diagnose the real problem, not just patch the symptoms, so you get a solution that actually works long-term.
We at SkyLuxe Construction have been serving Suffolk County homeowners as a full-service exterior home improvement specialist. We know Long Island’s weather patterns inside and out – from February ice storms that create damaging ice dams to humid August nights that cause condensation problems.
Unlike contractors who treat skylight repair as a side job, we specialize in comprehensive exterior solutions. When we fix your skylight, we’re also checking your roof, gutters, and siding to make sure everything works together to protect your investment.
Huntington Station homeowners trust us because we’re local, licensed, and completely honest about what you actually need. We won’t try to sell you a $3,000 replacement if a $500 repair will solve your problem permanently.
First, we thoroughly inspect your skylight and the surrounding roof area. Most leaks aren’t coming from cracked glass like homeowners assume – they’re coming from damaged flashing, deteriorated seals, or installation mistakes from years ago. We find the actual source, not just where water is dripping.
Next, we explain exactly what’s wrong and what it’ll take to fix it permanently. No technical jargon, no surprise costs, no upselling. If your skylight can be repaired, we repair it. If it needs replacement, we’ll show you why and give you options that fit your budget.
Then we get to work using materials designed for Suffolk County’s climate extremes. We seal, replace, or repair whatever’s needed, test everything thoroughly, and clean up completely. You get a written guarantee because we stand behind every job we complete.

Your skylight repair includes a complete assessment of the flashing, weatherstripping, glass integrity, and surrounding roof materials. We handle everything from simple resealing jobs to complex flashing repairs that require coordinating with your existing shingles and gutters.
In Huntington Station, we regularly see skylight problems caused by ice dams forming along the roof edge and thermal expansion from our dramatic temperature swings. Your repair accounts for these local conditions, using installation techniques and materials that work specifically in Suffolk County’s challenging climate.
We also provide same-day emergency service when you have active leaks damaging your home. Because waiting isn’t realistic when water is pouring into your living room, and every day you delay makes the interior repairs more expensive and extensive.
Most skylight repairs in our area run between $300-$1,150, depending on what’s actually causing the leak. Simple resealing or weatherstrip replacement is on the lower end, while flashing repair or glass replacement costs more but still much less than full replacement.
The key is getting an accurate diagnosis first. If we can stop your leak by replacing worn seals or fixing minor flashing issues, that’s significantly less expensive than tearing out and replacing the entire skylight assembly. We always start with the most cost-effective solution that will actually solve your problem for good.
Emergency repairs add roughly $100-$300 to the base cost, but that’s still a bargain compared to what you’ll pay for water damage to your ceilings, walls, and floors. We provide upfront estimates so you know exactly what you’re paying before any work begins.
Most skylight leaks happen because of damaged flashing around the edges, worn weatherstripping, or poor installation – rarely because of cracked glass like most people assume. The flashing is the metal barrier that seals your skylight to your roof, and it takes constant abuse from our weather extremes.
Suffolk County’s freeze-thaw cycles cause materials to expand and contract repeatedly, which loosens seals and creates gaps over time. Ice dams put tremendous pressure on flashing and can actually shift skylights in their frames. Some skylights were simply installed incorrectly from day one, creating problems that don’t show up until years later.
Regular maintenance can catch these issues before they become expensive leaks. We recommend having skylights inspected every 3-5 years, especially if they’re over 10 years old. Replacing $50 worth of weatherstripping beats paying thousands for water damage repairs.
If your skylight is less than 15 years old and the frame structure is solid, repair is almost always the smarter financial choice. Most leaks can be permanently fixed by addressing the flashing, seals, or minor glass issues without the expense and disruption of full replacement.
However, if your skylight has multiple ongoing problems, is over 20 years old, or has been “repaired” several times already, replacement probably makes more sense long-term. Cracked frames, severely shifted units, or skylights with rotted surrounding wood typically need complete replacement.
We’ll always give you an honest assessment of which option makes the most sense for your specific situation and budget. Sometimes spending more upfront on replacement saves you money over the next decade by eliminating repeated repair calls.
We provide same-day emergency service in most cases when you have water actively coming into your home. We know skylight leaks can’t wait – every hour means more potential damage to your ceilings, walls, furniture, and personal belongings.
For emergency calls, we’ll stop the immediate water intrusion first with temporary measures if needed, then assess what’s required for a permanent solution. Often we can complete the entire repair on the first visit since we stock common materials on our service trucks.
When we can’t finish everything the same day due to material requirements or weather conditions, we’ll make sure your home is completely protected until we return. No living with buckets and tarps while you wait for parts to arrive.
Absolutely. We guarantee all our skylight repair work with written warranties that cover both our workmanship and the materials we install. The specific terms depend on the type of repair, but you’re always protected if the same problem returns due to our work.
Most repairs come with our standard labor warranty plus manufacturer warranties on any materials we replace like flashing, seals, or glass. We’ll explain exactly what’s covered and for how long before we start any work.
Our reputation depends on fixing things right the first time, so we use quality materials and proven techniques. If something does go wrong with our repair, we’ll return and make it right at no charge to you – that’s our commitment to every Huntington Station homeowner we serve.
We’re a complete exterior home improvement contractor specializing in roof repair, roof replacement, gutter guard installation, chimney repair, siding installation, and metal roofing throughout Suffolk County. This comprehensive expertise actually makes us better at skylight repairs.
Sometimes what looks like a skylight leak is actually a roof problem, or fixing your skylight reveals other issues that need attention before they become expensive emergencies. Having one contractor who understands how all your exterior systems work together means better results and fewer headaches for you.
Plus, when we’re already at your property fixing your skylight, we can spot and address other potential problems before they require separate service calls. It’s more convenient and often more cost-effective than dealing with multiple contractors who don’t communicate with each other.
