You wake up to water stains on your ceiling again. That slow drip has turned into a real problem, and you’re tired of putting buckets out every time it rains.
Here’s what happens when we fix your skylight right: no more water damage spreading through your walls. No more expensive heating bills because cold air isn’t seeping through gaps. No more stress every time storm clouds roll over Terryville.
Most contractors just slap some tar around the edges and call it done. We dig deeper because three out of four skylight leaks come from the skylight itself failing, not just the flashing around it. When we’re finished, your skylight works the way it should have from day one.
SkyLuxe Construction has been fixing skylights for Suffolk County families since we started. We’re not some big company that treats your home like just another job number.
When you call us, you’re getting people who live and work right here in your community. We understand how Terryville’s weather beats up on skylights – the heavy rains, the freeze-thaw cycles, the summer heat that warps seals.
Our approach is simple: figure out what’s really wrong, fix it with quality materials, and make sure it stays fixed. We’ve built our reputation on doing what we say we’ll do, when we say we’ll do it.
First, we inspect your skylight properly. Not just a quick look from the ground – we get up there and check the glass, the seals, the flashing, and how everything connects to your roof.
Most leaks aren’t where you think they are. Water finds the easiest path down, so that stain on your ceiling might be coming from a completely different spot. We trace it back to the real source.
Then we explain exactly what needs to happen. Sometimes it’s a simple reseal job. Other times the glass is cracked or the whole unit needs replacing. We’ll show you what we found and give you options that make sense for your budget.
The actual repair depends on what’s broken, but we always clean up after ourselves and test everything before we leave. You’ll know your skylight is fixed because we’ll show you how it’s supposed to work.

Every skylight repair we do in Terryville comes with a thorough inspection, quality materials, and work that’s guaranteed. We’re not the cheapest option in Suffolk County, and that’s intentional.
Cheap skylight repairs fail. You end up calling someone else six months later to fix what should have been done right the first time. We use proper sealants that handle Terryville’s temperature swings, quality flashing that won’t corrode, and glass that’s actually designed for roof installations.
Most of our repairs cost between $450 and $1,000, depending on what needs fixing. That includes labor, materials, and the peace of mind that comes with hiring people who know what they’re doing. If your skylight needs full replacement, we’ll tell you upfront and explain why.
We’re available 24/7 for emergency leaks because we know water damage doesn’t wait for business hours. When you need help, we show up.
Most skylight repairs in Terryville cost between $450 and $1,000, depending on what’s actually wrong with your skylight. Simple resealing jobs are on the lower end, while glass replacement or flashing repair costs more.
The biggest factor in cost is whether we can repair your existing skylight or if it needs complete replacement. We always try to save you money with a repair first, but sometimes the skylight is too far gone and replacement is actually the more cost-effective option long-term.
We give you a detailed estimate before starting any work, so you know exactly what you’re paying for and why it’s necessary.
Three out of four skylight leaks we see come from the skylight itself failing, not just the flashing around it. The glass develops cracks, the seals deteriorate, or the frame warps over time.
Suffolk County’s weather is particularly hard on skylights. We get heavy rain, snow loads, freeze-thaw cycles, and hot summers that expand and contract materials. Poor installation makes these problems worse – if the skylight wasn’t sealed properly from the start, it’s going to fail sooner.
Other common causes include debris impact from storms, clogged drainage systems, and simply age. Most skylights last 15-20 years before they need attention, but that timeline gets shorter if they weren’t installed correctly or maintained properly.
If you’re seeing water stains, feeling drafts, or noticing condensation between glass panes, your skylight needs professional attention. Small leaks and minor seal failures can usually be repaired cost-effectively.
Skylights need replacement when the glass is cracked, the frame is warped beyond repair, or when repair costs approach replacement costs. We also recommend replacement for skylights over 20 years old that have ongoing problems – at that point, you’re better off starting fresh with modern materials.
During our inspection, we’ll show you exactly what’s wrong and explain whether repair or replacement makes more sense for your situation and budget. We’re not trying to sell you the most expensive option – we want to solve your problem permanently.
Foggy skylights usually mean the seal between glass panes has failed, letting moisture get trapped inside. This is a common problem with double-pane skylights as they age, especially in Suffolk County’s humid climate.
Sometimes we can reseal the unit if we catch it early, but most foggy skylights need glass replacement or full skylight replacement. The fogging won’t clear up on its own, and it actually gets worse over time as more moisture gets trapped.
The good news is that replacing the glass or the whole skylight eliminates the fogging problem permanently and often improves your home’s energy efficiency. Modern skylights have much better sealing systems than older units.
Yes, we provide 24/7 emergency skylight repair throughout Terryville and Suffolk County. Water damage doesn’t wait for convenient times, and neither do we.
Emergency calls usually involve active leaks during storms, broken glass from debris, or skylights that have come loose. We’ll come out immediately to stop the water intrusion and prevent further damage to your home.
For true emergencies, we can do temporary repairs to stop the immediate problem, then come back when conditions are better to complete the permanent fix. Our goal is always to protect your home first and worry about the perfect repair later.
Properly done skylight repairs should last 10-15 years minimum in Suffolk County’s climate, often longer depending on the specific repair and materials used. We warranty our work because we’re confident in our methods and materials.
The key is using the right materials for our local conditions. Cheap sealants fail quickly in our freeze-thaw cycles. Low-grade flashing corrodes in our humid summers. We use commercial-grade materials designed to handle Long Island weather.
Regular maintenance helps repairs last longer. We recommend having your skylights inspected every few years, especially after major storms. Catching small problems early prevents them from becoming expensive repairs later.
