NEW SKYLIGHT REPLACEMENT NEAR FREEPORT
Expressway Specializes In Seamless Skylight Replacements
If you would like to minimize the possible costs of a pricey repair or replacement, it is optimal for you to keep your current skylight clean and well-maintained from the time of its initial replacement. During the colder months, water typically freezes and expands in unmaintained skylights – which causes problems. This cycle will cause gaps to grow – and after a few seasons of continuous expansion and contraction, you may detect that the skylight may start to leak as it allows water to enter. Another reason you may need a new skylight replacement is imperfect construction of what you have there now. As a projecting roof feature, they are more prone to problems like cracks or leaking than other spots of a home’s roof. The likelihood of discovering that your skylight is leaking increases with its lifespan. If you detect your skylight is leaking, it’s important to take timely action. No matter what the time of year, a skylight is a prime and cost-effective way to let essential natural light into your your property. Replacement is not always the answer – especially if the problem is small and localized.
The window that makes up the skylight must be fitted precisely to the opening made for it. If the skylight fitting is not installed correctly, you may experience leaks immediately. High humidity will also lead to the development of condensation that drips down the glass of your dwelling’s skylight. Luckily, an indoor humidity problem is easy to fix. An anti-fogging material will eliminate the condensation build-up and ensure that moisture can no longer condense. Still, it’s a good move to get your skylight tested by a professional skylight tech.

Types of Skylights We Install
Our pros may test the skylight flashing, check the skylight’s insulation, replace the weather seals – or replace the skylight itself – if it is beyond repair or the actual culprit. We’ll evaluate the skylight’s flashing – which is the metal component installed specifically to prevent projecting roof elements from developing leaks around their sides.
We’ll analyze the skylight’s insulation – because without enough insulation – or no insulation at all – warm air will flow up freely from inside the structure and cause condensation. When insulation touches the glass, condensation often results, which brings you right back to the problem from above. In some cases, rain could also infiltrate poorly insulated spaces, eroding more insulation as it leaks through. If your skylight is leaking, the weather seals may have aged and peeled thanks to exposure to the intense Long Island sun.
