Skylight Installation in Westhampton Beach & the Hamptons, NY
Velux and premium skylight installation, replacement, and flashing repair across Long Island’s East End — add natural light without compromising your roof’s weather protection.
Skylights Done Right on the East End
A skylight installed without proper flashing is one of the most common sources of roof leaks on Hamptons homes. The junction between a skylight curb and the surrounding roofing material is a complex detail that demands experience — especially on cedar shake roofs where the stepped flashing process requires careful hand-work. Straightline Roofing has been installing and flashing skylights on East End homes for over 20 years. We do it right the first time.
We are experienced with Velux skylights — the standard for quality residential skylight installation — as well as VELUX sun tunnels and other premium skylight systems. Whether you are adding a new skylight or replacing a leaking, fogged, or outdated unit, we handle the full scope: structural opening preparation, skylight installation, and complete custom flashing for your specific roof material.

Frequently Asked Questions
My skylight is leaking — does the whole skylight need to be replaced?
Often no. The majority of skylight leaks we see are flashing failures, not skylight failures. If the glass and frame are in good condition, repairing or replacing the flashing is typically the right and more economical solution. We will diagnose the actual source before recommending anything.
Are skylights a good idea in a coastal Long Island climate?
Yes, when properly installed. Modern Velux units are rated for high wind and use impact-resistant glass. The key is correct installation with appropriate flashing for your specific roof material — which is exactly what we specialize in.
