Your skylight stops leaking. Your energy bills go down because heated and cooled air stays where it belongs. You sleep better knowing water isn’t slowly destroying your ceiling, walls, or floors.
That’s what happens when skylight repair is done right. No more buckets catching drips during storms. No more stains spreading across your ceiling. No more wondering if today’s the day a small leak becomes a big problem.
When we fix your skylight, it stays fixed. You get back to enjoying natural light without the stress of water damage hanging over your head.
SkyLuxe Construction Inc has been handling exterior repairs for Suffolk County homeowners who need work done right the first time. We understand what Mount Sinai’s weather does to skylights.
Heavy rains test every seal. Temperature swings cause expansion and contraction that can crack flashing. Strong winds drive debris that damages glass. We’ve seen it all, and we know how to fix it permanently.
You’re not getting a generic repair crew who learned about skylights last week. You’re getting contractors who’ve built our reputation on solving the specific problems that Long Island weather creates.
First, we inspect your entire skylight system. Not just the obvious problem area, but the flashing, seals, glass, frame, and surrounding roof structure. Most leaks have multiple contributing factors, and we find them all.
Next, we explain exactly what’s wrong and what it takes to fix it permanently. No surprises, no upselling, just honest assessment of what your skylight needs.
Then we make the repairs using quality materials designed for Long Island’s climate. We test everything before we leave. Your skylight either works perfectly, or we’re not done yet.

Leaking flashing gets replaced with properly sealed, weather-resistant materials. Cracked glass gets upgraded to impact-resistant options that handle debris better. Worn seals get renewed with premium weatherproofing that expands and contracts with temperature changes.
We also handle the problems most contractors miss. Condensation issues that create ongoing moisture problems. Improper ventilation that causes fogging. Structural issues where the skylight wasn’t installed correctly in the first place.
Mount Sinai homes face specific challenges. Proximity to the water means more humidity and salt air. Mature trees mean more debris. We factor in these local conditions when we design your repair solution, so it lasts longer than generic fixes.
Skylight repair costs depend on what’s actually wrong with your system. Simple seal replacement might run a few hundred dollars. Flashing repair typically costs more because it involves removing and reinstalling roof materials around the skylight.
Major repairs like glass replacement or structural fixes can cost significantly more, but they’re often less expensive than dealing with ongoing water damage. We always inspect first and give you exact pricing before any work begins.
The real cost isn’t just the repair – it’s what happens if you don’t fix it. Water damage, mold remediation, and energy loss from drafty skylights add up fast. Most homeowners save money by fixing problems early rather than waiting until they get worse.
Long Island weather is tough on skylights. Heavy rains test every seal and joint. Snow loads stress the frame. Temperature swings cause materials to expand and contract, which can crack flashing or separate seals.
Wind-driven debris is another major factor. Branches, leaves, and other materials can crack glass or damage flashing. Salt air near the water accelerates corrosion of metal components.
Poor installation is probably the biggest cause we see. Skylights that weren’t properly flashed or sealed from the beginning will eventually fail. When we repair these, we essentially reinstall the skylight correctly so the problem doesn’t come back.
Yes, but emergency repairs work differently than planned maintenance. If your skylight is actively leaking during a storm, we can make temporary weatherproof repairs to stop immediate damage, then schedule permanent fixes when conditions improve.
Winter repairs require different materials and techniques. Sealants need to cure properly in cold temperatures. We use cold-weather compounds and sometimes need to create temporary enclosures to ensure repairs set correctly.
The key is not waiting until the next storm to address problems. If you notice issues during warmer months, get them fixed before winter weather makes both the damage and the repairs more complicated.
Quality repairs using the right materials should last 10-15 years or more, even with Long Island’s challenging weather conditions. The key is using components designed for coastal climates and temperature extremes.
Cheap fixes fail quickly here. Bargain sealants crack within a few seasons. Low-grade flashing corrodes faster in salt air. We use marine-grade materials and proven techniques that handle what Long Island throws at them.
Regular maintenance extends repair life significantly. Annual inspections catch small issues before they become big problems. Keeping gutters clean and trimming nearby branches reduces stress on the skylight system.
Yes, we respond to emergency skylight leaks that are actively damaging your home. Water coming through your ceiling can’t wait for regular business hours, especially during storms when the damage accelerates rapidly.
Emergency repairs focus on stopping immediate water intrusion and protecting your home’s interior. We make temporary weatherproof repairs that hold until permanent fixes can be completed safely and properly.
Call us immediately if you have active leaks. The sooner we can stop water intrusion, the less damage occurs to your ceiling, walls, and belongings. Emergency response is part of being a responsible local contractor.
It depends on the skylight’s age, condition, and how extensive the problems are. Skylights over 20 years old with multiple issues often make more sense to replace, especially if the glass is fogged or the frame is deteriorating.
Newer skylights with isolated problems like damaged flashing or worn seals are usually good candidates for repair. The frame and glass are still solid, so fixing the specific issue costs less and extends the skylight’s life significantly.
We evaluate each situation honestly. If repair makes sense, we’ll fix it properly. If replacement is more cost-effective long-term, we’ll explain why and give you options that fit your budget and needs.
