When your skylight stops leaking, you stop worrying about water stains on your ceiling, mold growing in your walls, and expensive repairs down the road. You get back to enjoying the natural light your skylight was meant to provide.
No more buckets catching drips. No more scrambling during rainstorms. Just a properly sealed skylight that does its job without the headaches.
That’s what happens when you work with contractors who understand that skylight repair isn’t just about stopping water – it’s about protecting everything underneath it.
SkyLuxe Construction Inc has been serving Yaphank and the greater Suffolk County area as a full-service exterior improvement specialist. We focus exclusively on residential work, which means we understand exactly what Suffolk County homeowners deal with.
Long Island weather puts skylights through the wringer – from winter freeze-thaw cycles to summer heat expansion. We’ve seen every type of skylight problem that can happen here, and we know how to fix them right the first time.
Licensed, insured, and local. We’re not going anywhere, which means you can count on us to stand behind our work long after the job is done.
First, we inspect your skylight thoroughly – not just the obvious problem areas, but the flashing, seals, and surrounding roof structure. Most skylight leaks aren’t where you think they are.
Next, we explain exactly what’s wrong and what it’ll take to fix it. Sometimes it’s a simple resealing job. Other times you need new flashing or glass replacement. We’ll tell you the difference and why.
Then we fix it using quality materials and proven techniques. We don’t cut corners because we know you’re counting on this repair to last. When we’re done, your skylight works like it should – keeping water out and light coming in.

We handle every type of skylight repair Yaphank homeowners need. Cracked skylight glass repair, damaged flashing replacement, worn seal restoration, and emergency leak fixes. If your skylight opens and closes, we repair those mechanisms too.
Suffolk County’s coastal climate means skylights face unique challenges – salt air, temperature swings, and plenty of precipitation. We use materials and techniques specifically chosen for Long Island conditions, not generic solutions that might work somewhere else.
Whether your skylight is 5 years old or 25, we’ll give you an honest assessment of what makes sense – repair or replace. Sometimes a $200 seal replacement saves you from a $2000 skylight replacement. Sometimes it doesn’t. We’ll tell you which situation you’re in.
If you see water stains on your ceiling, feel drips during rain, or notice condensation between glass panes, you need professional help. These aren’t problems that fix themselves – they get worse over time.
Small leaks become big leaks. Water damage spreads from your ceiling to your walls, and eventually to your home’s structure. The longer you wait, the more expensive the fix becomes.
We offer free inspections because we’d rather catch a problem early when it’s still affordable to fix. Most skylight repairs cost a fraction of what interior water damage repairs cost.
Most skylight leaks happen because of failed flashing – the metal seal between your skylight and roof. Long Island weather is tough on flashing, especially the freeze-thaw cycles we get every winter.
Cracked or shifted skylight glass is another common culprit, usually from settling or impact damage. Sometimes the skylight itself is fine, but the seals around it have deteriorated from age and weather exposure.
Poor installation is surprisingly common too. If the original contractor didn’t install the flashing correctly or used substandard materials, problems show up within a few years. That’s why choosing the right repair contractor matters as much as choosing the right materials.
In most cases, yes. Many skylight problems can be fixed with targeted repairs – new flashing, fresh seals, or glass replacement. Full skylight replacement is usually only necessary when the frame itself is damaged or severely deteriorated.
We start with the least invasive repair that will actually solve your problem. If resealing your skylight stops the leak permanently, that’s what we recommend. If the flashing needs replacement, we’ll do that instead of selling you a whole new skylight.
The key is proper diagnosis. We inspect every component of your skylight system to identify the real source of the problem, not just the obvious symptoms. That way you get the repair you actually need, not the most expensive option.
Simple repairs like resealing or replacing weatherstripping usually take 2-4 hours. More complex jobs like flashing replacement or glass repair might take a full day, depending on the skylight size and roof access.
Emergency leak repairs can often be completed the same day you call, especially if it’s a straightforward sealing issue. We carry common repair materials on our trucks so we don’t have to make multiple trips for basic fixes.
Weather affects timing too. We won’t attempt permanent repairs during active storms, but we can provide temporary protection to prevent further damage until conditions improve. Your safety and the quality of our work both matter more than speed.
Yes, we guarantee our skylight repairs against leaks. If your skylight starts leaking again due to our workmanship, we’ll return and fix it at no charge. We stand behind our work because we’re confident in our methods and materials.
Our guarantee covers the specific repair we performed, not unrelated skylight problems that might develop later. For example, if we repair your flashing and your glass cracks six months later, that’s a separate issue. But if our flashing repair fails, we’ll make it right.
We’re a local Suffolk County company, so we’re here when you need us. We don’t disappear after completing your job – our reputation in the community depends on keeping our customers satisfied long-term.
Protect your interior first – move furniture, place buckets to catch drips, and use tarps or plastic sheeting to protect floors and belongings. Don’t attempt repairs yourself during active weather – it’s dangerous and usually ineffective.
Call us as soon as it’s safe to do so. We provide emergency skylight repair services and can often provide temporary protection the same day. Even if permanent repairs have to wait for better weather, we can stop additional damage from occurring.
Document the damage with photos for insurance purposes, but don’t delay getting professional help. Emergency repairs cost more than planned repairs, but they cost far less than letting water damage spread throughout your home. The sooner we can assess and protect your skylight, the less total damage you’ll face.
