Skylight Repair & Installation NYC | Velux

Skylights are wonderful — until they leak. The good news is that 90% of "leaking skylights" are not actually the skylight unit; they are the flashing around it. We have repaired hundreds of leaky skylights and installed new ones in NYC homes from brownstones to single-family Cape Cods.

Common Problems We Solve

Water dripping inside the skylight frame
Stains on ceiling around skylight
Cracked glass or polycarbonate
Foggy double-pane glass (seal failure)
Old skylight needs replacing
Adding a new skylight to brighten a dark room

Identify whether unit, flashing, or both
Velux step-flashing kits for proper waterproofing
Replace failed seals or full skylight units
New install: framing, flashing, finishing inside
Drywall & finish work coordinated with our trusted finisher (or yours)
5-year warranty on workmanship

Velux fixed, vented (manual and solar-powered), and tubular skylights. Velux EDL/EDW step-flashing kits. Lead-coated copper for historic homes.

Frequently Asked Questions

In our experience, 90% of skylight leaks are flashing failures, not skylight failures. We can usually re-flash the existing unit for $400–$800. Full replacement runs $1,500–$3,500 depending on the unit.

If the unit is over 20 years old or the seals have failed (foggy glass), replace. If the unit is sound and the leak is at the flashing, repair.

Yes — we frame, flash, and install new skylights regularly. We coordinate with a finisher for the interior drywall work.
