You’ll notice the difference immediately—brighter rooms, better ventilation, and lower energy bills from reduced artificial lighting needs. That’s what proper skylight replacement delivers.
We’ve been serving Centerport and Long Island homeowners for years with quality skylight replacements and installations. Our licensed contractors understand the unique challenges of Long Island weather and roofing systems.
We’ve earned a 5-star rating from over 70 verified reviews because we do what we say we’ll do. When Centerport residents need skylight work done right, they call us—and they keep recommending us to their neighbors.
Our team uses the latest equipment and proven techniques to ensure every skylight replacement is watertight and built to last through Long Island’s changing seasons.
We start with a thorough inspection of your current skylight and roof structure to identify any underlying issues. This helps us determine whether you need a simple replacement or if there are other problems to address first.
Next, we carefully remove your old skylight and assess the opening for proper sizing and structural integrity. We install new flashing, ensure proper waterproofing, and fit your new Velux skylight with precision.
The final step involves testing the seal, cleaning up completely, and walking you through your new skylight’s features. We don’t consider the job done until you’re completely satisfied with the results.

Every skylight replacement includes professional removal of your old unit, proper flashing installation, and precision fitting of your new Velux skylight. We handle all the structural work, waterproofing, and interior finishing.
Centerport homes face unique challenges with coastal weather patterns and temperature fluctuations. We account for these local conditions in every installation, using materials and techniques that perform well in Long Island’s climate.
You’ll receive a detailed explanation of your new skylight’s operation, maintenance requirements, and warranty coverage. We also provide guidance on optimal positioning for maximum light and energy efficiency based on your home’s specific orientation and roof design.
Skylight replacement in Centerport typically ranges from $3,000 to $6,000, depending on the size, type, and complexity of installation. Velux skylights with professional installation generally fall within this range.
The final cost depends on factors like your roof’s pitch, the type of roofing material, whether structural modifications are needed, and which Velux model you choose. We provide detailed estimates that break down all costs upfront—no surprises or hidden fees.
Most homeowners find the investment pays for itself through energy savings and increased home value, especially when upgrading from older, inefficient skylights.
Most skylight replacements take one to two days to complete, depending on weather conditions and the complexity of your specific installation. Simple replacements where we’re using the existing opening can often be finished in a single day.
We work efficiently to minimize disruption to your home and routine. Our team arrives prepared with all necessary materials and equipment, and we protect your interior spaces throughout the process.
Weather can affect timing, as we won’t compromise quality or safety by working in unsuitable conditions. We’ll communicate any delays clearly and reschedule as needed to ensure proper installation.
Skylight repairs work for minor issues like small leaks, worn seals, or damaged flashing. However, if your skylight has cracked glass, structural damage, or is more than 15-20 years old, replacement is usually the better choice.
Older skylights often lack modern energy efficiency features and proper waterproofing technology. Replacing rather than repeatedly repairing typically saves money in the long run and gives you warranty protection on the entire system.
We’ll assess your current skylight honestly and recommend the most cost-effective solution. Sometimes a repair makes sense, but often replacement provides better value and eliminates ongoing problems.
Yes, we’re experienced Velux installers and recommend them for their superior quality and reliability. Velux skylights feature advanced flashing systems, energy-efficient glass, and are designed to withstand Long Island’s weather conditions.
Velux offers comprehensive warranties—up to 20 years on glass and 10 years on installation defects when properly installed by certified contractors like us. Their skylights also include features like automatic rain sensors and smart home integration options.
The build quality is simply better than most alternatives. While the initial investment may be higher, Velux skylights typically last longer and perform better, making them the smart choice for most Centerport homeowners.
When installed properly with quality materials, modern Velux skylights are extremely reliable and leak-resistant. The key is proper installation, which includes correct flashing, adequate sealing, and attention to your roof’s specific characteristics.
Many older skylights leak because they were installed with outdated techniques or inferior materials. Today’s installation methods and Velux’s advanced flashing systems create multiple layers of protection against water intrusion.
We guarantee our installation work and use only proven techniques that have kept our customers’ homes dry for years. If you do experience any issues, we stand behind our work and will make it right.
We can perform skylight replacements during milder winter days when conditions are safe and appropriate. However, we won’t compromise quality or safety by working in severe weather, ice, or when temperatures are too extreme for proper sealant curing.
The best time for skylight replacement in the Centerport area is typically late spring through early fall when weather conditions are most predictable. However, if you have an urgent leak situation, we can often work around weather windows to get you protected.
We’ll be honest about timing and weather constraints. It’s better to wait for proper conditions than to rush a job that needs to last for decades. We’ll work with you to find the best timing for your project.
