Skylight Installation & Repair in Rochester, NY
Skylights transform spaces with daylight and sky views—but only when they’re installed and flashed right. We handle new skylight installs, replacements, and repairs that protect against Rochester’s wind-driven rain and snow. From selecting the correct curb height and pitch kits to using manufacturer flashing systems, our team builds skylight details that stay dry for the long haul.
New Installs & Retrofits
We size skylights to your room and structure, evaluate rafter spacing, and lay out the shaft to optimize light spread. For replacements, we upgrade from dated domes to energy-efficient, Low-E, argon-filled glass units with solar or manual shades. Interiors get clean drywall and trim for a finished look.
Flashing & Underlayment Done Right
Our assemblies include ice-and-water shield up the roof slope, step flashing integrated into each shingle course, and counter-flashing where required. We protect against snow drift and splashback with saddle flashing on the upslope side.
Condensation & Venting
We address the usual condensation suspects—poor ventilation and uninsulated shafts—by improving attic airflow and insulating the light well so interior moisture doesn’t collect on cold surfaces in winter.

Choosing the Right Skylight for Rochester
Fixed, venting, and solar-powered skylights each solve different problems. Fixed units deliver simple, efficient daylighting. Venting skylights add natural exhaust to stuffy kitchens and bathrooms. Solar-powered options improve airflow without wiring and can qualify for incentives. We’ll help you pick glazing packages that block UV and maintain winter efficiency while still bathing the room in light. Shades and tints let you fine-tune brightness and privacy. Crucially, we match skylight kits to your roof pitch and material so the flashing actually works in Rochester storms.
Our Leak-Free Flashing Method
Most skylight leaks are flashing leaks. We follow a strict sequence: self-adhered underlayment wraps the curb; step flashing interlaces with each shingle course; counter-flashing sheds water at the top and sides; and a saddle on the upslope breaks snow drift and diverts water around the curb. We avoid shortcuts like exposed fasteners in high-flow areas and use sealants rated for freeze–thaw flexibility. The payoff is a skylight that keeps the weather out—season after season.

Interior Finish & Ongoing Care
We don’t leave you with a raw opening. Our team completes insulation in the shaft, drywall installation, and trim so the skylight looks built-in, not tacked on. We’ll also map simple care: occasional glass cleaning, shade maintenance, and a quick seasonal check of the exterior flashing during roof inspections. With the right product and detail work, a skylight becomes a highlight of your Rochester home—not a maintenance headache.
