Hear from Our Customers
You know that sinking feeling when you spot water stains spreading across your ceiling. Or when you hear that dreaded drip-drip-drip during the next storm. Your skylight isn’t supposed to be a source of stress – it should bring light and beauty to your home.
When we fix your skylight properly, you get back to enjoying your space without constantly checking the weather forecast. No more buckets strategically placed around your living room. No more worrying about ceiling damage or mold growth. Just a skylight that does what it’s supposed to do: let light in and keep water out.
Most importantly, you get peace of mind knowing the repair will actually last. We don’t just slap some caulk around the edges and call it done.
SkyLuxe Construction has been solving exterior problems for Suffolk County homeowners for decades. We’re not some fly-by-night operation that disappears after the check clears. We’re your neighbors, and our reputation in West Bay Shore and surrounding communities matters to us.
What makes us different is simple: we actually understand skylights. Most contractors treat every leak the same way, but skylights are specialty items with unique challenges. We know the difference between a flashing problem, a seal failure, and a structural issue.
Our team is fully licensed and insured in Suffolk County, and we stand behind every repair with real guarantees. When Long Island weather tests your skylight, you want contractors who’ve seen it all before.
Here’s the thing about skylight leaks: most of them aren’t actually coming from the skylight itself. Damaged flashing, improper installation, or roof issues around the skylight are usually the real culprits. That’s why we start every job with a comprehensive inspection.
Our technicians examine the flashing, seals, surrounding roofing materials, and the skylight’s overall condition. We don’t just patch symptoms – we identify and fix the root cause so your repair actually lasts. You’ll know exactly what’s wrong and exactly how we’ll fix it before any work begins.
Your repair includes everything needed for a permanent fix. We handle flashing replacement, seal repairs, weatherstripping updates, and any necessary roof work around the skylight. All materials are premium grade and designed for Long Island’s weather extremes. We also clean up completely when we’re done and test everything to make sure it’s working properly.

Living in West Bay Shore means your skylights face some serious weather challenges. Between nor’easters, summer storms, and the constant salt air from the Great South Bay, your skylights take a beating year-round. We understand these local conditions because we live and work here too.
Our skylight repair service covers every type of problem you might encounter. Cracked glass from hail damage, failed seals letting in moisture, flashing that’s pulled away from constant wind, or weatherstripping that’s deteriorated from UV exposure – we handle it all. We work with all major skylight brands and can source parts for older units that other contractors might write off as unrepairable.
What you get is a complete solution tailored to your specific situation and our local climate. No generic fixes or shortcuts that’ll fail in six months. Just professional repair work that keeps your skylight functioning properly for years to come.
Most homeowners assume water coming in around their skylight means the skylight itself is broken, but that’s usually not the case. About 75% of skylight leaks we repair are actually caused by issues with the flashing, roof materials, or installation problems around the skylight.
The water you’re seeing might be traveling from somewhere else entirely before showing up near your skylight. That’s why proper diagnosis is so important. We inspect the entire area – not just the skylight itself – to find the real source of the problem.
Our technicians know exactly what to look for and can tell you definitively whether you need skylight repair, roof work, or both. Don’t let another contractor guess at the problem and waste your money on the wrong fix.
It depends on what’s actually wrong with your skylight. If the glass is cracked or the frame is damaged beyond repair, replacement is your only option. But many problems that seem serious can actually be fixed with proper repair work.
Common repairs include replacing weatherstripping, resealing joints, fixing flashing, or replacing individual components like the operating mechanism on vented skylights. These repairs typically cost between $800-$1,000 and can extend your skylight’s life significantly.
Replacement becomes necessary when the skylight structure itself is compromised or when repair costs approach replacement costs. We’ll always give you honest recommendations about which option makes the most financial sense for your situation.
Most skylight repairs can be completed in one day, weather permitting. Simple fixes like replacing seals or weatherstripping might only take a few hours, while more complex repairs involving flashing work could take a full day.
The timeline depends on what we find during our inspection and whether we need to order any special parts. We’ll give you a realistic timeframe upfront so you can plan accordingly. Emergency repairs to stop active leaks can often be done immediately to protect your home.
Keep in mind that we won’t rush the job just to finish quickly. Proper skylight repair requires attention to detail and allowing materials to cure properly. We’d rather take the time to do it right than have you call us back in six months.
Absolutely, but only if it’s done correctly with the right materials. We use premium-grade sealants, flashing, and weatherstripping specifically designed for coastal climates like ours here in West Bay Shore.
Long Island weather is tough on skylights – we get everything from hurricane-force winds to ice storms to constant salt air exposure. That’s why we don’t use generic materials or shortcuts. Every component we install is chosen for durability in our specific climate conditions.
We also back our repair work with real guarantees because we’re confident in our methods and materials. If you have any issues after we complete your repair, we’ll come back and make it right at no charge to you.
Yes, we work on skylights of all ages and brands. Many of the older homes in West Bay Shore have skylights that are 20-30 years old or more, and finding parts can be challenging. But we have relationships with suppliers who specialize in older skylight components.
Even when original parts aren’t available, we can often retrofit modern components that will work with your existing skylight frame. This gives you the reliability of new materials while avoiding the expense of complete replacement.
Our experience with older skylights means we understand the common failure points and can often prevent future problems during the repair process. We’ll also let you know if your skylight is reaching the point where replacement makes more sense than continued repairs.
Yes, we provide emergency skylight repair services throughout Suffolk County, including West Bay Shore. We understand that skylight leaks don’t wait for convenient times – they usually happen during storms when you need help most.
Our emergency service includes temporary repairs to stop active leaks and protect your home from further damage. We can tarp or seal problem areas to get you through the immediate crisis, then return to complete permanent repairs when conditions allow.
We prioritize emergency calls because we know how quickly water damage can escalate. A small leak can turn into a major problem in just a few hours, so getting professional help quickly is crucial for protecting your home and belongings.
