Professional Skylight Installation Process

Simple Process, Lasting Results

We start with a thorough inspection of your roof structure and attic space to determine the best placement and type of skylight for your needs. No guesswork, no surprises later.

Next, we carefully measure and mark the openings, then cut precise holes in both your roof and ceiling. Our experienced installers handle the flashing, sealing, and weatherproofing that prevent leaks. For sun tunnels, we connect the reflective tunnel system that channels maximum light down to your room.

Finally, we install the interior diffuser and trim, test everything thoroughly, and clean up completely. Most installations are finished in under 90 minutes. You get immediate results without the mess and disruption you might expect.

How much does skylight installation cost in East Moriches?

Skylight installation in East Moriches typically ranges from $2,300 to $3,100 for standard installations, though costs vary based on skylight type, roof complexity, and specific requirements. Sun tunnels are generally less expensive than traditional skylights.

Factors affecting price include the size of the unit, whether it’s going on a sloped or flat roof, accessibility challenges, and any structural modifications needed. VELUX skylights with advanced features like solar-powered operation or impact-resistant glass cost more upfront but often qualify for energy efficiency rebates.

We provide detailed written estimates that break down all costs so you know exactly what you’re paying for. No hidden fees or surprise charges after we start the work.

Traditional skylights are windows installed directly in your roof that provide both light and a view of the sky. They work best in rooms directly under the roof with minimal obstructions. Sun tunnels use a reflective tube system to channel light from the roof down to interior spaces.

Sun tunnels are perfect for hallways, bathrooms, closets, and other areas where traditional skylights aren’t practical due to distance from the roof or structural obstacles. They’re also more energy-efficient because they don’t transfer heat like glass skylights do.

Both options brighten your space significantly, but sun tunnels are typically faster to install, less expensive, and work in more locations throughout your home. We’ll assess your specific situation and recommend the best solution for each room.

Proper installation is everything when it comes to preventing leaks. We use advanced flashing systems, ice and water shield, and proven sealing techniques that create multiple barriers against water intrusion. The flashing integrates with your existing roofing system, not just sits on top of it.

Most skylight leaks happen because of poor installation, not skylight failure. We see this constantly when fixing other contractors’ work. Corners get cut on flashing details, sealants aren’t applied correctly, or the wrong materials are used for the specific roof type.

Our installations come with comprehensive warranties on both materials and labor. We also offer annual inspections to catch any potential issues before they become expensive problems. Prevention is always cheaper than repairs.

Yes, we install skylights on flat roofs using specialized curb-mounted systems designed specifically for low-slope applications. These units sit on a raised curb that ensures proper drainage and prevents water pooling around the skylight.

Flat roof skylights require different flashing techniques and materials compared to sloped roof installations. The drainage patterns are completely different, and we have to account for thermal expansion and contraction that affects flat roofs more than pitched ones.

We work with several flat roof skylight manufacturers and can recommend the best system for your specific roof type, whether it’s EPDM, TPO, modified bitumen, or built-up roofing. Each requires slightly different installation approaches to ensure long-term performance.

VELUX sun tunnels with solar-powered night lights qualify for the federal 30% solar tax credit, which can save you hundreds of dollars on your installation. This makes the total cost of the sun tunnel and installation eligible for the credit.

Energy-efficient skylights may also qualify for local utility rebates or state energy efficiency programs. Requirements change regularly, so we stay current on available incentives and help you understand which ones apply to your specific installation.

We provide all necessary documentation for tax credit applications and work with your accountant or tax preparer to ensure you get maximum benefit from available programs. The savings often make premium skylights cost-competitive with basic models.

Quality skylights like VELUX units are designed to withstand coastal conditions and typically last 20-30 years with proper installation and minimal maintenance. The key is using materials that resist salt air corrosion and UV degradation.

East Moriches’ coastal location means skylights face salt spray, high winds, and intense summer sun. We use marine-grade sealants and corrosion-resistant flashing materials specifically chosen for these conditions. Cheaper materials simply don’t hold up.

Regular maintenance includes cleaning the glass, checking seals, and inspecting flashing annually. Most issues we catch during routine maintenance can be fixed inexpensively before they become major problems. We offer maintenance programs to keep your skylights performing like new for decades.
