Water stains on your ceiling disappear. No more buckets catching drips during storms. Your home stays dry, your walls stay mold-free, and you stop worrying about structural damage every time it rains.
That’s what happens when skylight repair is done right the first time. Most leaks stem from damaged flashing, worn seals, or improper installation – problems that keep coming back if you don’t fix the root cause.
We diagnose the actual problem, not just the symptoms. Whether it’s cracked glass, failed weatherstripping, or flashing that’s letting water seep into your roof deck, you get a permanent solution that protects your Southampton home for years.
SkyLuxe Construction Inc brings decades of exterior home improvement expertise to Southampton homeowners who need skylight problems solved permanently. We hold Southampton License #L-004191 and understand the unique challenges coastal properties face.
Our family-owned business has built its reputation on transparent communication and quality work that lasts. When Southampton residents search for reliable contractors, they find us because we’ve earned trust through consistent results, not promises.
We’re not the cheapest option – and that’s exactly why our repairs don’t fail six months later. You’re investing in fewer callbacks, less water damage, and real protection for your home.
First, we inspect your skylight and surrounding roof area to identify the actual leak source. Many contractors guess – we know the difference between flashing failure, seal deterioration, and glass damage because we’ve seen it all.
Next, we explain exactly what’s wrong and why, showing you the problem areas so you understand what needs fixing. No surprise charges, no upselling – just honest assessment of what your skylight needs.
Then we complete the repair using quality materials designed for Long Island’s weather conditions. We test everything before we leave, ensuring your skylight keeps water out and lets light in exactly as it should.

Our skylight repair services cover everything from emergency leak fixes to complete skylight replacement. We handle cracked glass repair, flashing replacement, seal restoration, and motor repairs for vented skylights.
Southampton’s coastal environment creates unique challenges for skylights. Salt air accelerates seal deterioration, while temperature swings cause expansion and contraction that can crack glass or loosen flashing. We understand these local conditions and use materials that withstand them.
Whether you need emergency repairs after storm damage or planned maintenance to prevent problems, we provide the expertise Southampton homeowners rely on. Our work comes with guarantees because we stand behind every repair.
Most skylight leaks can be repaired if caught early, but the decision depends on the skylight’s age, condition, and leak source. If your skylight is under 15 years old and the glass isn’t cracked, repair is usually the best option.
We look at flashing condition, seal integrity, and frame stability during our inspection. Damaged flashing can be replaced, worn seals can be restored, and minor glass issues can be fixed. However, if the skylight frame is warped, multiple seals have failed, or the glass has extensive cracking, replacement becomes more cost-effective than repeated repairs.
The key is getting an honest assessment from experienced contractors who aren’t trying to sell you the most expensive option. We’ll tell you if repair makes sense or if replacement is your better long-term investment.
Southampton’s coastal location creates several conditions that cause skylight leaks. Salt air corrodes flashing and metal components faster than inland areas, while temperature fluctuations cause materials to expand and contract, breaking seals.
The most common causes we see are damaged flashing around the skylight perimeter, worn weatherstripping that no longer creates a watertight seal, and improper installation that allows water to penetrate the roof structure. Storm debris can also crack glass or damage protective coatings.
Older skylights often develop multiple issues simultaneously – the flashing corrodes, seals shrink and crack, and the glass develops stress fractures. Regular inspection helps catch these problems before they cause interior water damage.
We offer same-day emergency service for active skylight leaks that are causing interior damage. Our goal is to stop water intrusion within hours of your call, then schedule permanent repairs once conditions allow.
Emergency repairs typically involve temporary weatherproofing to protect your home until we can complete permanent fixes. We carry emergency materials and can often provide temporary solutions that last several days, giving you time to schedule the full repair without ongoing water damage.
For non-emergency repairs, we typically schedule within 2-3 business days. Southampton’s weather can affect timing, but we work around conditions to complete repairs as quickly as possible while ensuring quality results.
Yes, we guarantee all skylight repairs against defects in workmanship and materials. Our warranty coverage varies by repair type but typically includes 2-5 years on labor and matches manufacturer warranties on materials.
If your repaired skylight develops the same problem within the warranty period, we return to fix it at no charge. This guarantee covers our repair work specifically – it doesn’t extend to damage from severe weather events or normal wear on components we didn’t replace.
We’re confident enough in our work to put guarantees in writing because we use quality materials and proper installation techniques. Most of our warranty calls are for minor adjustments, not repair failures.
Skylight repair addresses existing problems like leaks, cracks, or mechanical failures. Maintenance prevents these problems through regular inspection and upkeep of seals, flashing, and moving parts.
Repair work might involve replacing damaged flashing, resealing glass panels, fixing motor mechanisms, or patching cracked glass. These are reactive services that solve problems after they occur. Maintenance includes cleaning glass, inspecting seals, lubricating hinges, and checking flashing condition before problems develop.
Regular maintenance extends skylight life and prevents emergency repairs. We recommend annual inspections for skylights over 10 years old, especially in Southampton’s coastal environment where salt air accelerates component deterioration.
Skylight repair costs depend on the problem type and repair complexity. Simple seal replacement might cost $200-400, while flashing repair or glass replacement can range from $400-800. Complete skylight replacement starts around $800-1500.
Emergency repairs often cost more due to urgency and after-hours service, but preventing water damage usually justifies the expense. We provide detailed estimates before starting work, so you know exactly what you’re paying for.
The most expensive skylight repair is the one that doesn’t work. Cheap fixes often fail within months, requiring repeated service calls that cost more than doing it right initially. We focus on permanent solutions that protect your investment.
