That water stain on your ceiling isn’t getting smaller. Every storm brings anxiety about what you’ll find dripping in your living room afterward.
When we fix your skylight, you get your peace of mind back. No more buckets strategically placed around the house. No more wondering if this is the storm that finally ruins your hardwood floors or causes mold in the walls.
Your home stays dry, your belongings stay protected, and you can actually enjoy the natural light your skylight was meant to provide.
We’ve been serving Suffolk County families for years as a full-service exterior specialist. We’re not just another roofing company that “also does skylights.”
We understand how Long Island’s coastal weather affects your home. The salt air, the nor’easters, the summer storms—they all take their toll on skylights differently than they would inland.
Sound Beach homeowners choose us because we show up when we say we will, give you straight answers about what needs fixing, and stand behind our work. No games, no surprises, no excuses.
First, we inspect the entire skylight system—not just where you see the leak. Most skylight problems aren’t where you think they are. The water you see dripping in your kitchen might be coming from damaged flashing three feet away.
We check the glass, the frame, the flashing, the surrounding roof area, and the interior connections. Then we explain exactly what’s wrong and what it’ll take to fix it properly.
During repairs, we protect your interior with tarps and work efficiently to minimize disruption. We fix the root cause, not just patch the symptom. When we’re done, you get a warranty on the work and the confidence that comes with knowing it’s fixed right.

We handle everything from emergency leak repairs to complete skylight resealing. Cracked glass, damaged flashing, failed seals, condensation issues, broken mechanisms on vented skylights—if it’s skylight-related, we fix it.
Sound Beach’s coastal location means your skylights face unique challenges. Salt air corrodes flashing faster. Storm debris can crack glass. Temperature swings cause seals to fail. We’ve seen it all and know how to address each issue properly.
Our service includes protecting your interior during repairs, using quality materials designed for coastal conditions, and cleaning up completely when we’re done. You shouldn’t have to live with buckets and tarps while waiting for a permanent solution.
Most skylight leaks can be repaired if caught early. We can typically fix issues with damaged flashing, failed seals, minor cracks, or condensation problems without replacing the entire unit.
Replacement is usually only necessary when the skylight frame is severely damaged, the glass has major cracks that compromise structural integrity, or the unit is very old with multiple failing components. During our inspection, we’ll give you an honest assessment of whether repair or replacement makes more sense for your situation and budget.
The key is getting it looked at quickly. A small leak that could be a $400 repair today might become a $2,000 replacement if water damage spreads to the surrounding roof structure.
The most common cause is damaged or improperly installed flashing—the metal barrier that seals the skylight to your roof. Over time, flashing can corrode, shift, or develop gaps that let water in.
Other frequent causes include failed seals around the glass, cracks from storm debris or settling, and condensation issues from poor ventilation. Sometimes what looks like a skylight leak is actually a roof leak nearby that’s running down to the skylight area.
In Sound Beach’s coastal environment, salt air accelerates flashing corrosion, and storms can shift or damage components. That’s why it’s important to have skylight issues inspected by someone familiar with Long Island’s specific weather challenges.
For emergency situations where water is actively coming into your home, we can typically provide temporary protection within 24 hours to stop further damage. This might involve tarping, emergency sealing, or temporary flashing repairs.
Permanent repairs usually take 1-3 days depending on the extent of the problem and weather conditions. We won’t leave you with a tarp for weeks while waiting for parts—we stock common repair materials and can source specialty items quickly.
The most important thing is stopping the water intrusion immediately to prevent damage to your ceilings, walls, and belongings. Once your home is protected, we can schedule the proper repair work at a time that works for your schedule.
We take extensive precautions to protect your property during repairs. Interior areas below the work zone are covered with heavy-duty tarps, and we use drop cloths to protect flooring and furniture.
For exterior work, we’re careful around landscaping and use plywood walkways when necessary to avoid damaging plants or lawn areas. Any debris is cleaned up completely before we consider the job finished.
Most skylight repairs can be completed from the exterior without needing access through your home’s interior. When interior work is necessary, we schedule it at your convenience and minimize disruption to your daily routine.
Most skylight repairs in our area range from $450 to $1,200 depending on the problem. Simple resealing or flashing repairs are on the lower end, while more complex issues involving glass replacement or structural work cost more.
We provide free estimates and explain exactly what needs to be done before starting any work. No surprise charges, no “while we’re here” upsells. You’ll know the cost upfront and can make an informed decision.
Compared to skylight replacement costs of $2,000-$4,000+, repair is usually the smart financial choice when the unit is structurally sound. We’ll give you an honest assessment of whether repair makes sense or if replacement would be more cost-effective long-term.
Yes, we warranty all our skylight repair work because we stand behind the quality of our craftsmanship. The specific warranty terms depend on the type of repair, but typically range from one to three years.
Our warranty covers both materials and labor, so if something goes wrong with the repair itself, we’ll fix it at no charge. This doesn’t cover new damage from storms or normal wear and tear, but it does protect you if our repair fails.
We’re a local Suffolk County business, so we’re here to honor our warranties. You’re not dealing with a fly-by-night contractor who disappears after collecting payment. When you choose us, you’re choosing a company that’ll be here to take care of you long-term.
