Skylight Repair in Austin, Texas
When your skylight isn’t functioning properly, TAG Roofing & Exteriors offers prompt, professional skylight repair services that Austin homeowners need. Our experienced contractors can assess and fix issues ranging from leaks and cracks to broken seals and faulty components, extending the life of your existing skylight without the need for a full replacement.
Common Skylight Issues
Condensation and Fogging
Condensation often occurs due to temperature differences between indoor and outdoor environments. Over time, poor insulation or faulty sealing can allow moisture to accumulate between skylight panes, resulting in persistent fogging that blocks natural light and reduces energy efficiency.
Malfunctioning Ventilation
Skylights that include ventilation features—such as those that open manually or electronically—may experience issues with sticking, jamming, or failure to open and close correctly. These problems can result from worn-out motors, broken cranks, or debris lodged in moving parts.
Skylight Repairs We Offer
Leak Repairs
Our skylight contractors use advanced techniques and premium-grade sealants to identify and eliminate leaks. We ensure a watertight fit that holds up during Texas storms and humidity.
Glass and Diffuser Replacement
We make replacing cracked or shattered glass or plastic diffusers quick and efficient, restoring both visibility and safety to your skylight without unnecessary disruption to your home.
Sealing and Insulation
Proper sealing enhances your home’s insulation by reducing energy loss by up to 11%. We ensure all repairs meet or exceed modern energy standards.
Functional Hardware Repair
We repair or replace critical components, such as manual cranks, solar-powered openers, electric motors, hinges, and latches, so your skylight opens and closes smoothly again.
Benefits of Repairing Your Skylights
Improves Energy Efficiency
A well-sealed skylight reduces heat loss in the winter and heat gain in the summer, lowering your monthly energy bills and keeping your home more comfortable.
Prevents Water Damage
Timely skylight repairs can prevent severe water damage, including mold, rot, and stains on your ceiling or drywall.
Enhances Visual Appeal
Restored skylights look like new, maintaining your home’s polished interior and exterior aesthetic.
Extends Your Skylight’s Lifespan
Like any home feature, skylights need maintenance. Regular repairs can prolong your skylight’s functionality so it lasts for many years.
Cheaper Than Skylight Replacement
When caught early, repairs are far more affordable than a complete skylight replacement, saving you money in the long run.

Adds Value to Your Home and Curb Appeal

Signs Your Skylights Might Be Ready For Replacement
1. Discoloration Around the Edges or Ceiling
Stains and dark marks near your skylight may signal trapped moisture, mold, or long-standing leaks—all signs it’s time for a replacement.
2. Visible Cracks
Cracks in your skylight weaken its integrity and insulation. Skylight replacement is the safest and most effective solution.
3. Moisture or Leaks
If your skylight is dripping, it could be the start of a major roof leak. Prompt replacement can protect your attic, drywall, and flooring.
4. Whistling, Rattling, and Drafts
These sounds indicate that your skylight isn’t properly sealed, allowing air to enter and reducing your home’s energy efficiency.
