Hear from Our Customers
Water stains on your ceiling tell a story you don’t want to hear. Every drop that gets through your skylight is working its way into your home’s structure, creating problems that get more expensive by the day.
You need more than a quick patch job. You need someone who understands that most skylight leaks aren’t actually coming from the skylight itself – they’re coming from failed flashing, compromised seals, or installation issues that were never done right in the first place.
When we fix your skylight, you get dry ceilings, peace of mind, and a home that’s protected from Suffolk County’s unpredictable weather. No more buckets, no more worry, no more wondering when the next storm will make things worse.
We’ve been solving exterior home problems for Suffolk County families for decades. We’re not the biggest company, but we’re the one homeowners call when they need skylight repairs done right the first time.
Our team knows Mastic Beach homes inside and out. We understand how the salt air affects flashing materials, how winter freeze-thaw cycles create seal problems, and why so many skylights in older homes start leaking after 15-20 years.
You’re not just hiring a contractor – you’re working with neighbors who live in this community and stand behind every repair with our family name. When we say the leak stops here, we mean it.
First, we inspect everything. Not just the obvious wet spots, but the flashing, seals, surrounding roofing materials, and the skylight’s overall condition. Most contractors miss this step and end up chasing symptoms instead of fixing the real problem.
Next, we identify the root cause. Whether it’s damaged flashing from Suffolk County’s weather extremes, worn seals that have dried out from sun exposure, or installation issues from years ago, we find what’s actually letting water in.
Then we fix it right. We replace damaged flashing with premium materials designed for Long Island’s conditions. We update seals and weatherstripping. We handle any necessary roof work around the skylight. Everything gets tested before we consider the job complete.
You’ll know exactly what was wrong and exactly how we fixed it. No surprises, no guessing, no wondering if it’ll leak again next season.

Your skylight repair includes everything needed for a permanent solution. We handle flashing replacement, seal repairs, weatherstripping updates, and any necessary roof work around the skylight. All materials are premium grade and designed specifically for Long Island’s weather challenges.
Mastic Beach homes face unique conditions that many contractors don’t understand. The combination of salt air, temperature swings, and severe storms puts extra stress on skylights and their sealing systems. We use materials and techniques that account for these local factors.
We also clean up completely when we’re finished and test everything to make sure it’s working properly. Your repair comes with our guarantee because we know it’s going to last. When Suffolk County weather tests your skylight again, it’s going to pass.
Most skylight leaks aren’t actually from the skylight itself. Water stains around your skylight could be coming from damaged flashing, roof issues near the skylight, or problems with the sealing system.
The only way to know for sure is a proper inspection. We examine the flashing, seals, surrounding roofing materials, and the skylight’s condition to identify where water is actually getting in. Sometimes what looks like a skylight problem is really a roof problem, and sometimes what looks like a roof problem is actually a failed seal.
This is why temporary patches rarely work long-term. Unless you fix the real source of the water intrusion, you’re just buying time until the next heavy rain shows you the problem is still there.
In many cases, yes. A lot of skylight problems can be solved with flashing replacement, seal repairs, or weatherstripping updates without touching the skylight itself.
However, if the skylight glass is cracked, the frame is warped, or the unit is very old with multiple failure points, replacement might be more cost-effective than repairs. We’ll give you an honest assessment of what makes sense for your situation.
Age is always a factor. If your skylight is over 20 years old and having multiple issues, it might be time to upgrade to a modern, energy-efficient unit that won’t give you problems for decades to come.
When done correctly with quality materials, skylight repairs should last 15-20 years or more. The key is using the right materials for Suffolk County’s climate and addressing all the potential failure points, not just the obvious ones.
Cheap repairs with basic caulk and generic materials might stop leaks temporarily, but they’ll fail again within a few years. We use premium sealants, proper flashing materials, and weatherstripping designed for coastal conditions.
Our repairs come with a guarantee because we know they’re going to hold up. We’ve been doing this long enough to know what works in Mastic Beach homes and what doesn’t.
Yes, we understand that skylight leaks don’t wait for convenient times. When storms hit Suffolk County and water starts coming through your ceiling, you need help fast.
We provide rapid response for emergency situations. While we’re scheduling your permanent repair, we can also provide temporary protection to prevent further damage to your home’s interior.
Emergency repairs are about damage control first, then scheduling the proper fix. We’ll get your home protected, then come back to do the comprehensive repair that prevents the problem from happening again.
Time and weather are the main culprits. Suffolk County’s climate is particularly hard on skylights because of the temperature swings, salt air, and severe storms we get.
Flashing materials corrode over time, especially near the coast. Seals and weatherstripping dry out and shrink from sun exposure. The freeze-thaw cycles we get in winter can open up small gaps that turn into bigger problems during heavy rains.
Sometimes the issue is installation-related problems that don’t show up for years. Improperly installed flashing might work fine initially, but as materials shift and settle over time, water finds its way in. This is why a proper inspection is so important – we need to understand not just what’s leaking, but why it started leaking now.
Repair costs depend on what’s actually wrong with your skylight. Simple seal repairs might cost a few hundred dollars, while complete flashing replacement or multiple repairs could run into the thousands.
The good news is that most skylight problems can be fixed for much less than full replacement. We provide detailed estimates that break down exactly what needs to be done and why, so you can make an informed decision.
Keep in mind that delaying repairs almost always makes them more expensive. A small flashing issue that could be fixed affordably today might require extensive roof repairs if water damage spreads. Getting a professional assessment early can save you significant money in the long run.
