No more buckets catching drips during storms. No more stained ceilings or warped drywall. No more wondering when the next leak will start.
Your skylight works the way it should – sealed tight, energy efficient, and built to handle whatever Long Island weather throws at it. You get back to enjoying natural light without the constant worry about water damage destroying your home’s value.
Most importantly, you get a repair that actually fixes the root problem instead of just covering up symptoms for a few months.
SkyLuxe Construction has been fixing what other contractors couldn’t for decades right here in Suffolk County. We’re not the guys who show up, slap some caulk around your skylight, and disappear.
We’re the family-owned team that actually understands how skylights fail in our climate. Setauket’s freeze-thaw cycles, coastal humidity, and storm patterns create specific problems that need specific solutions.
Every repair comes with our guarantee because we use premium materials designed for Long Island’s weather extremes and we do the work right the first time.
First, we inspect everything – not just the obvious problem spots. Most skylight leaks aren’t coming from the skylight itself. Damaged flashing, improper installation, or roof issues around the skylight are usually the real culprits.
Next, we identify the root cause and explain exactly what’s wrong and how we’ll fix it. You’ll know the full scope before any work starts.
Then we handle the complete repair using premium materials. This includes flashing replacement, seal repairs, weatherstripping updates, and any necessary roof work around the skylight. We test everything to make sure it’s leak-free and clean up completely when we’re done.

Your skylight repair includes everything needed for a permanent fix. We handle cracked skylight glass repair, skylight flashing repair, resealing services, and emergency leak fixes. All work comes with premium materials designed specifically for Suffolk County’s challenging weather conditions.
Setauket homes face unique challenges with our coastal location and temperature swings. Your skylight needs to handle everything from summer heat and humidity to winter freeze-thaw cycles that can destroy inferior repairs within months.
We also coordinate with any interior repairs needed from water damage. Our goal is getting your home back to normal as quickly as possible with repairs that actually last.
Most skylight repairs in Setauket range from $450 to $1,000 depending on what needs to be fixed. Simple resealing jobs cost less, while complete flashing replacement or glass repair costs more.
The key is getting an accurate diagnosis first. Many homeowners waste money on temporary fixes that fail within months because the real problem was never identified.
We provide detailed estimates that break down exactly what work is needed and why. No surprises, no hidden costs – just honest pricing for permanent solutions.
Most skylight leaks in our area come from damaged flashing around the skylight, not the skylight itself. Suffolk County’s freeze-thaw cycles cause flashing to expand and contract, creating gaps where water can seep in.
Improper installation is another major cause. Skylights need specific techniques for our climate, and many contractors don’t understand the requirements.
Age is also a factor. Seals and weatherstripping deteriorate over time, especially with our coastal humidity and temperature swings. Regular maintenance can prevent most problems, but once leaks start, professional repair is usually needed.
Cracked skylight glass usually needs complete replacement. There’s no reliable way to repair cracks that will hold up to Suffolk County weather long-term.
The good news is that glass replacement is often less expensive than homeowners expect, especially compared to the water damage costs if you wait.
We can upgrade you to energy-efficient tempered glass during replacement, which is much stronger than the old plastic skylights many Setauket homes still have. This prevents future cracking and improves your home’s energy efficiency.
Yes, we provide emergency skylight leak repair throughout Suffolk County. Skylight leaks can cause serious water damage quickly, especially during storms.
Our emergency service includes temporary leak stopping to prevent further damage, followed by permanent repairs once conditions allow. We’re available 24/7 because we understand that leaks don’t wait for business hours.
For emergencies, we can often provide same-day service to at least stop the immediate problem. Then we schedule the complete repair work to fix the underlying issue permanently.
Properly done skylight repairs should last 15-20 years or more in Long Island conditions. The key is using the right materials and techniques for our specific climate challenges.
Cheap repairs using standard caulk or generic flashing materials often fail within 1-2 years because they can’t handle our freeze-thaw cycles and coastal humidity.
We use premium flashing materials and sealants specifically designed for marine environments and temperature extremes. This costs slightly more upfront but saves thousands in repeat repairs and water damage costs.
Repair is possible when the skylight structure is sound but has issues with sealing, flashing, or minor damage. Replacement is needed when the skylight itself is cracked, severely damaged, or so old that repairs aren’t cost-effective.
We evaluate each situation individually. Sometimes a $500 repair can give you another 10-15 years of service. Other times, spending $500 on repairs for a skylight that needs $2,000 in replacement soon doesn’t make financial sense.
Our assessment includes the skylight’s age, condition, energy efficiency, and your long-term plans for the home. We’ll recommend the most cost-effective solution for your specific situation.
