When your skylight starts leaking, every day you wait increases the risk of serious damage to your walls, ceilings, and floors. You’re looking at potential mold growth, ruined drywall, and thousands in interior repairs if the problem isn’t fixed properly.
We diagnose the real cause of your skylight leak – not just the obvious symptoms. Most contractors assume it’s a flashing issue and slap on some sealant, but that only works about 25% of the time because three out of four skylight leaks actually come from the skylight unit itself.
You get a thorough inspection, honest assessment, and repair that stops the leak for good. No more buckets on your floor, no more stained ceilings, no more worrying every time it rains.
We’ve been serving Suffolk County homeowners for years with the kind of quality work that builds lasting relationships. We’re not the biggest company, and we’re not trying to be – we focus on doing excellent work for our neighbors in Old Field and surrounding communities.
Our team understands the unique challenges of Long Island’s coastal weather and how it affects older homes in areas like Old Field, where many properties were built in the 1970s. We know these homes inside and out, and we know how to fix their skylights right the first time.
When you call us, you’re getting certified technicians who take pride in their work and stand behind every repair with our commitment to quality and customer satisfaction.
First, we do a complete inspection to find the real source of your leak. This isn’t a quick glance – we check the skylight unit, flashing, seals, and surrounding roof area to understand exactly what’s happening and why.
Next, we explain what we found in plain terms. No confusing technical jargon or pressure tactics. You’ll know exactly what needs to be fixed, why it’s necessary, and what it’ll cost before any work begins.
Then we make the repair using the right materials and proven techniques. Whether it’s resealing, flashing repair, glass replacement, or fixing a vented skylight mechanism, we handle it with the precision that comes from years of experience. We clean up completely when we’re done, leaving your property exactly as we found it – except with a skylight that actually works.

Our skylight repair services cover everything from emergency leak fixes to complete skylight restoration. We work on all major brands including Velux, Anderson, Pella, and older units like Insuladome and Thermovue that are common in Old Field’s established neighborhoods.
For Old Field homeowners, we understand you’re dealing with valuable properties where quality matters more than cutting corners. Your 1970s-era home might have original skylights that just need expert attention to perform like new again, or they might need strategic upgrades to modern standards.
We handle cracked glass replacement, foggy skylight clearing, flashing repair, resealing services, and vented skylight motor repairs. Every repair comes with our commitment to stopping the leak permanently – not just temporarily patching it until the next storm.
We offer same-day emergency service for active leaks in most cases. When you have water coming into your home, we understand it can’t wait until next week.
For emergency calls, we can typically be at your Old Field home within a few hours to stop the immediate leak and assess what needs to be done for a permanent fix. Sometimes we can complete the full repair the same day, depending on what parts or materials are needed.
If it’s not an emergency situation, we usually schedule repairs within 2-3 business days. We keep common repair materials in stock specifically so we don’t leave you waiting while water continues damaging your home.
Most people assume it’s the flashing around the skylight, but that’s actually only the cause about 25% of the time. Three out of four skylight leaks we repair are caused by failure in the skylight unit itself.
In Old Field’s older homes, we commonly see issues with the skylight’s internal seals, worn weather stripping, or problems with the skylight frame where it connects to the glass. The coastal weather here accelerates wear on these components.
We also see problems with blocked weep holes, especially during winter when ice and snow cover the skylight. When these drainage channels get blocked, water backs up and finds its way inside. That’s why proper diagnosis is so important – fixing the wrong thing just wastes your money and leaves you with the same problem.
It depends on the age, condition, and type of skylight you have. We always look for repair options first because they’re typically much more cost-effective than full replacement.
If your skylight is structurally sound and the issue is with seals, flashing, or minor components, repair is usually the smart choice. You can often get many more years of life from a quality skylight with the right repairs.
However, if the skylight frame is compromised, the glass is severely damaged, or you’re dealing with a very old unit that’s constantly having problems, replacement might make more financial sense. We’ll give you honest advice about which option makes the most sense for your specific situation and budget.
Yes, we stand behind all our skylight repairs with a solid warranty on both materials and workmanship. The specific terms depend on the type of repair, but we guarantee that our work will stop your leak.
If you have any issues with a repair we’ve completed, we’ll come back and make it right at no additional cost to you. We’ve built our reputation in Suffolk County by doing quality work that lasts, and we’re not about to compromise that for any single job.
Our goal is to fix your skylight problem once and for all, not to create a customer who needs to keep calling us back. That’s not good for you, and it’s not good for our business reputation in the community.
Most skylight repairs in the Old Field area range from $450 to $1,000, depending on what needs to be fixed. Simple resealing or weather stripping replacement is on the lower end, while flashing repair or glass replacement costs more.
We provide upfront, transparent pricing before any work begins. You’ll know exactly what the repair will cost and what’s included. No surprise charges, no hidden fees, and no pressure to add services you don’t need.
For emergency leak repairs, we focus first on stopping the water damage, then we can discuss any additional repairs that might be needed for a permanent solution. We understand that unexpected home repairs can strain your budget, so we work with you to prioritize what’s most urgent.
Yes, we can perform most skylight repairs even in cold weather, though some repairs work better in warmer conditions. For emergency leaks, we absolutely will come out regardless of the weather to stop water damage to your home.
Winter actually creates some unique skylight problems here on Long Island. Ice dams can block skylight drainage, and the freeze-thaw cycle can worsen existing seal problems. We’re equipped to handle these cold-weather repairs safely and effectively.
Some types of sealants and adhesives work better when applied in warmer temperatures, so depending on the specific repair needed, we might recommend a temporary emergency fix to get you through winter, followed by a permanent repair when conditions are optimal. We’ll always explain your options and help you decide what makes the most sense.
