Hear From Our Clients
Picture waking up to natural light streaming through a perfectly sealed skylight instead of scrambling for buckets when it rains. Your heating and cooling bills drop because your new skylight actually insulates instead of bleeding energy.
No more water stains spreading across your ceiling. No more wondering if structural damage is eating away at your home’s frame.
Your skylight does what it should – brings beautiful daylight into your home while keeping East Farmingdale’s unpredictable weather outside where it belongs.
We’ve served East Farmingdale homeowners for years, and we know what your house is up against. The coastal weather, the aging housing stock from the 1940s-60s boom, the unique challenges of Long Island living.
We’ve replaced hundreds of failing skylights in homes just like yours. Most were original installations that finally gave up after decades of salt air, wind-driven rain, and thermal cycling that breaks down seals and flashing.
Licensed, insured, and committed to getting it right the first time. Because in a market where homes average $820,000, you need contractors who understand the stakes.
We start with a thorough inspection of your skylight and surrounding roof area. You’ll see exactly what’s failing and why, with photos and clear explanations of your options.
Next comes careful removal of your old skylight and assessment of the roof opening. We fix any structural issues we find and properly prepare the opening for your new installation.
Finally, we install your new skylight using proven techniques designed for Long Island weather. Proper flashing, quality sealing materials, and attention to details that prevent future problems. We clean up completely and show you how everything works.

Your skylight replacement includes complete removal and disposal of the old unit, any necessary roof repairs, and professional installation of your new skylight with commercial-grade flashing and sealing.
East Farmingdale’s location means your skylight faces salt air, driving rains, and temperature swings that test every seal. We use installation methods specifically designed for coastal conditions, not generic techniques that fail in real Long Island weather.
You get premium Velux skylights with industry-leading warranties, our workmanship guarantee, and the confidence that comes from working with contractors who’ve solved these exact problems hundreds of times before.
Skylight replacement typically runs $1,800 to $4,500 depending on size, type, and roof complexity. This includes removal of your old skylight, any needed roof repairs, the new unit, professional installation, and proper weatherproofing.
Vented skylights, larger sizes, or complex roof configurations increase costs. But quality installation pays for itself through prevented water damage, lower energy bills, and increased home value in East Farmingdale’s strong housing market.
We provide detailed, upfront pricing with no hidden fees. You’ll know exactly what you’re paying before we start, and we guarantee our work.
Flashing failure causes most skylight leaks. The metal barriers that seal your skylight to the roof corrode and crack under East Farmingdale’s coastal conditions – salt air accelerates deterioration while thermal cycling breaks seals.
Poor original installation is another major cause. Skylights installed without proper flashing techniques or quality materials will eventually fail, especially in Long Island’s challenging weather.
Age compounds these problems. Rubber gaskets become brittle, sealants crack, and even well-installed skylights eventually need replacement. We address all these issues with modern materials and proven installation methods.
Most single skylight replacements take 4-6 hours to complete. We typically finish in one day unless weather intervenes or we discover extensive roof damage that needs repair.
The process involves careful removal, roof assessment and preparation, new skylight installation with proper flashing, and interior finishing. We protect your home throughout the work and ensure everything is properly sealed.
Multiple skylights or complex installations may take longer, but we’ll give you realistic timeframes upfront. We work efficiently while maintaining the quality standards that prevent future problems.
Yes, we specialize in Velux skylights and recommend them for East Farmingdale homes. Their quality construction and comprehensive warranties make them ideal for Long Island’s demanding climate conditions.
Velux offers fixed skylights for natural light, manual venting models for fresh air, and solar-powered units that integrate with smart home systems. All come with excellent warranties and are designed for long-term performance.
We’ll help you choose the right Velux model for your needs and budget. Their accessories like blinds and rain sensors can enhance functionality, and we’re experienced with all their product lines.
Sometimes, but complete replacement usually makes more sense for East Farmingdale homes. Glass-only replacement works if the frame and flashing are in excellent condition, but that’s rare in skylights over 10-15 years old.
Older skylights have outdated sealing systems, less efficient glass, and frames that may look fine but have hidden deterioration. Replacing just the glass often leads to new problems within a few years.
Complete replacement costs only moderately more than glass replacement but gives you modern efficiency, better warranties, and long-term reliability. We’ll assess your specific situation and give you honest recommendations.
We provide comprehensive workmanship warranties on our installation work, plus you get the manufacturer’s warranty on your new skylight. Velux typically offers 10-year product warranties with longer coverage on specific components.
Our workmanship warranty covers everything we do – installation, flashing, sealing, and any related roof work. If you experience leaks or issues related to our installation, we return to fix the problem at no charge.
We stand behind our work because we use proven techniques and quality materials. Poor installation causes most skylight failures, which is why choosing experienced contractors with strong warranties protects your investment.
