Hear From Our Clients
No more buckets catching drips during Hampton Bays’ coastal storms. No more stained ceilings or rotting wood around your skylight. No more watching your energy bills climb because your old skylight can’t keep the salt air and weather out.
When we replace your skylight, you get a completely sealed system that keeps water where it belongs – outside your home. You get energy-efficient VELUX glass that actually helps lower your heating and cooling costs instead of fighting against them.
Your rooms stay naturally bright without the constant worry about the next nor’easter. That’s what happens when skylight replacement is done right the first time by contractors who understand Long Island weather.
We’ve been serving Hampton Bays and the surrounding Long Island communities for years, earning the trust of thousands of New York residents. Our licensed contractors and skilled roofers know exactly what it takes to handle skylight replacements in this challenging coastal climate.
We understand the unique demands Hampton Bays homes face – from salt air that corrodes seals faster to the wind-driven rains that test every roof penetration. That’s why we use industry-grade equipment and proven installation methods specifically designed for Long Island’s coastal conditions.
We’ve built our reputation on delivering what we promise: leak-free installations that stand up to everything from summer heat to winter storms.
We start with a thorough inspection of your current skylight and the surrounding roof area. This isn’t just looking at the glass – we check the flashing, examine the deck seals, inspect the surrounding shingles, and identify any signs of water damage that need addressing before your new skylight goes in.
Next, we carefully remove the old skylight and examine the roof opening. If there’s any rot or damage from previous leaks, we fix it properly so your new VELUX skylight has a solid, dry foundation that will last decades.
Then comes the installation using proper flashing techniques and marine-grade sealants designed specifically for Long Island’s coastal weather. We test everything thoroughly before we clean up and consider the job complete, so you know your skylight replacement is completely watertight from day one.

Every skylight replacement includes professional-grade VELUX products engineered specifically for energy efficiency and leak prevention. These aren’t the basic plastic skylights that yellow and crack after a few Hampton Bays summers – we’re talking about tempered glass units with low-E coatings that meet Energy Star guidelines.
In Hampton Bays, where coastal weather can shift from calm to severe in hours, this engineering matters. You get skylights designed to handle everything from summer heat and humidity to winter storms and ice, with proper ventilation options that actually help regulate your home’s temperature year-round.
We also include comprehensive flashing systems and weatherproofing that’s designed to last decades in salt air conditions, not just until the next big storm. Plus, every installation comes with our warranty backing both materials and workmanship.
Most skylight replacements take one full day, weather permitting. We start early and work efficiently to minimize any exposure of your home’s interior to the elements – especially important during Hampton Bays’ unpredictable coastal weather.
For standard-sized skylights on accessible roofs, we can typically complete the removal, any necessary roof repairs, and new VELUX installation in 6-8 hours. Larger skylights or those requiring significant roof repair work may extend into a second day.
We always check marine forecasts before starting and will reschedule if storms are expected. Your home’s protection is more important than rushing a job, and we’d rather wait for clear weather than risk water damage during installation.
If your skylight glass is cracked, broken, or has failed seals, replacement is your only real option. There’s no way to properly repair shattered tempered glass or restore compromised weatherproofing that will hold up to Hampton Bays’ coastal conditions.
Minor flashing issues or small seal problems might be repairable, but in our experience serving Long Island homes, skylights showing signs of failure are usually better candidates for replacement. The salt air here accelerates wear on all the components, not just the visible ones.
We’ll inspect everything thoroughly and give you an honest assessment. Sometimes a repair buys you a year or two, but replacement gives you decades of worry-free performance. We’ll help you make the choice that makes the most financial sense for your situation.
Yes, when properly installed and matched to your specific needs. VELUX skylights are Energy Star qualified and engineered with low-E coatings that help regulate heat transfer – crucial in Hampton Bays where you’re dealing with both summer heat and winter cold.
In our coastal climate, this means they help keep your home cooler during those humid summer months by reflecting excess heat while still flooding your rooms with natural light. In winter, they help retain indoor heat while providing the daylight that reduces your need for artificial lighting.
The key is proper installation and choosing the right glass package for your home’s orientation and Hampton Bays’ specific weather patterns. We’ll evaluate your situation during our consultation and recommend the most energy-efficient option for your home.
It won’t leak – that’s what separates professional installation from the quick fixes you see elsewhere. We use proven flashing techniques and marine-grade sealants specifically chosen for Long Island’s salt air and weather extremes. Every installation is pressure-tested before we consider the job complete.
We also back our work with a comprehensive warranty covering both materials and labor. If there’s ever an issue with our installation – which there won’t be – we’ll return to make it right at no cost to you.
We’ve been serving Hampton Bays long enough to know that our reputation depends on installations that stay leak-free through nor’easters, summer storms, and everything else Mother Nature throws at Long Island homes. That’s why we never cut corners on materials or installation methods.
Absolutely. Flat roof skylights require different installation techniques and specialized flashing systems, but we handle them regularly throughout Hampton Bays where many homes have flat or low-slope sections, especially on additions and modern designs.
Flat roof skylights actually need more careful attention to drainage and weatherproofing since water doesn’t run off as quickly. We use curb-mounted systems with proper slope built in to ensure water moves away from the skylight opening, even during Long Island’s heaviest downpours.
The installation process takes a bit longer than sloped roof skylights because of the additional weatherproofing required, but the end result is just as reliable when done with the right materials and techniques for coastal conditions.
Most homeowners in Hampton Bays invest between $1,200 and $3,500 for complete skylight replacement, including professional-grade VELUX materials and expert installation. The final cost depends on skylight size, roof accessibility, and any additional weatherproofing needed for coastal conditions.
VELUX skylights cost more upfront than basic units, but they’re engineered to last 20+ years in salt air conditions while providing measurable energy savings. When you factor in lower utility bills and the fact that you won’t need another replacement for decades, they’re actually the most cost-effective choice.
We provide detailed, written estimates that break down all costs – materials, labor, and any additional roof work needed. No surprises, no hidden fees, just honest pricing for quality work that protects your Hampton Bays home for years to come.
