Hear From Our Clients
You stop worrying about the next rainstorm. No more buckets, no more ceiling stains, no more calling someone back to fix what should’ve been done right the first time.
A proper skylight window replacement means new flashing, new seals, and materials that can handle nor’easters and August downpours without flinching. You get modern Velux skylights with Low-E glass that cut your energy bills instead of bleeding heat all winter. And you get a warranty that actually means something—because we live here, work here, and stand behind what we install.
Most leaks aren’t the skylight’s fault. They’re flashing problems. Bad installation. Shortcuts that turn a $1,500 job into a $3,000 repair two years later. When we replace your skylight, we’re fixing the root problem—not just covering it up until the next storm rolls through.
We’ve been handling roof skylight replacement across Suffolk County long enough to know what works here and what doesn’t. We’ve seen what happens when skylights aren’t installed with Long Island’s freeze-thaw cycles in mind. We’ve fixed the aftermath of that record-breaking August storm that dumped nearly 10 inches of rain in 24 hours.
We’re not the guys who show up, slap some caulk on it, and disappear. We’re licensed, insured, and local. When you call us for a skylight replacement in North Amityville, you’re getting contractors who understand coastal humidity, high winds, and the kind of weather that tests every seal and flashing joint twice a year.
We start with an honest assessment. If your skylight is under 10 years old and the leak is just a flashing issue, we’ll tell you. But if it’s older, cracked, or losing you money every month in energy costs, replacement makes more sense than patching.
Once we’re on the same page, we remove the old skylight and inspect the roof deck for any hidden damage. Then we install new flashing—the integrated kind with multiple waterproof barriers—and set the new Velux unit with proper sealing and alignment. We protect your interior with tarps, and most single skylight replacements are done in one day.
You’re not left wondering if it’ll leak. We test it, clean up completely, and back it with a leak-free guarantee. If there’s an issue with our installation, we come back and fix it at no charge.
Ready to get started?
You’re getting full removal of the old skylight, disposal included. New storm-rated flashing designed for Long Island wind and rain. A new Velux skylight with double-pane, Low-E glass that’ll cut heat loss by up to 35% compared to older units. Professional installation that meets local building codes and manufacturer specs.
We handle the permit if one’s required. We protect your home during the work. And we give you documentation for insurance if the replacement is storm-related—photos, measurements, the full breakdown.
North Amityville homes deal with salt air, temperature swings, and storms that would make most roofers nervous. That’s why we don’t use cheap materials or rushed timelines. A skylight replacement done right here means flashing that won’t fail in three years and seals that hold up when the next nor’easter hits. You’re paying for work that lasts, not work that looks good until the next storm.
Most residential skylight replacements in North Amityville run between $1,200 and $2,500 per skylight, depending on size, accessibility, and whether there’s any roof deck damage we need to address. That includes removal, disposal, new flashing, the Velux unit, and installation.
If you’re replacing multiple skylights or dealing with storm damage, the price can shift. But we give you upfront pricing—no surprises halfway through the job. And if your skylight was damaged in a storm like the August flooding, your homeowners insurance may cover part or all of the replacement cost.
Cheaper quotes usually mean cheaper materials or shortcuts on the flashing. That’s where leaks come from. You’re better off paying for it once and having it done right than paying twice to fix someone else’s work.
If your skylight is under 10 years old and the leak is clearly a flashing or seal issue, repair might make sense. But if it’s older than 15 years, you’re likely dealing with degraded seals, outdated glass, and hardware that’s past its useful life. At that point, replacement is the smarter move.
Older skylights also cost you money in energy loss. They let heat escape in winter and turn your upstairs into an oven in summer. A new Velux skylight with Low-E glass will pay for itself over time in lower utility bills—and you won’t be patching leaks every couple of years.
We’ll tell you honestly which route makes sense. If a repair will hold up, we’ll say so. But if you’re throwing money at a skylight that’s going to fail again, we’re not going to pretend otherwise.
Most single skylight replacements take between four and six hours, and we complete them in one day. We’re not leaving your roof open overnight or dragging the job out over a week.
If we find unexpected damage to the roof deck or framing once we remove the old skylight, that can add time. We’ll let you know right away if that’s the case. But for a straightforward replacement with no hidden issues, you’re looking at a same-day job from start to cleanup.
We protect your interior with tarps, work efficiently, and test everything before we leave. You’re not waiting around wondering when it’ll be finished or if it’s going to rain before we’re done.
You get two warranties. Velux covers the skylight itself—materials, glass, hardware—for up to 10 years depending on the model. We cover the installation with a leak-free guarantee backed by our workmanship warranty.
If your skylight leaks because of something we did wrong—improper flashing, bad sealing, installation error—we come back and fix it at no charge. That’s not a “we’ll take a look” promise. That’s a commitment.
The difference between a skylight that lasts 20 years and one that leaks in three usually comes down to installation quality. We’re not cutting corners, and we’re not disappearing after the check clears. We live and work in Suffolk County, and our reputation depends on standing behind what we install.
We can, but there are limits. If it’s dry and temperatures are above freezing, skylight replacement is doable. Sealants and flashing materials need certain temperatures to cure properly, so we won’t install in conditions that compromise the quality of the work.
If you’ve got a leak that can’t wait, we can do emergency temporary protection—tarp and secure the area—and then schedule the full replacement when weather permits. That keeps water out of your home without rushing a permanent fix in bad conditions.
Long Island winters are unpredictable, but we’ve handled plenty of off-season replacements. We’ll tell you straight if the timing works or if waiting a few weeks will give you a better result. We’re not risking a bad install just to get the job done faster.
We install Velux because they’re built for climates like ours and they hold up. Velux skylights are rated for high winds, they come with solid warranties, and the energy efficiency is measurable—up to 35% better than older plastic units.
That said, if you have a specific brand preference or an existing skylight that requires a particular replacement model, we’ll work with you. But for most residential skylight replacements in North Amityville, Velux is what we recommend. They’re not the cheapest option, but they’re the one that won’t have you calling us back in five years with another leak.
We’ve installed enough skylights across Long Island to know what performs and what doesn’t. Velux performs. The materials handle freeze-thaw cycles, the flashing systems integrate properly, and the glass actually reduces your energy costs instead of just letting light in.
