Flat Roof Skylights in North Loop / Highland, TX

Flat Roof Skylights for North Loop / Highland homes, done by experienced, insured independent crews. A flat or low-slope roof needs a fundamentally different skylight approach than a pitched composition shingle roof, because there's no natural slope to shed water away from the opening. Flat roof skylights are curb-mounted on a raised frame, with the flashing and drainage detailed specifically to keep standing water off the seal.

North Loop / Highland: North Loop and Highland see the same roughly 2,665 hours of Central Texas sun a year as the rest of Austin, hitting a mix of older post-WWII rooflines and denser rental housing across the area.

Central Austin's mid-century ranch stock in Allandale, Crestview, and Barton Hills commonly carries flat or low-sloped rooflines, the strongest flat-roof skylight market in the metro by housing count. Correct curb height and drainage detailing matter especially here given how many of these homes are original construction reaching replacement age.

Can a standard skylight be installed on a flat roof?

Not safely without curb-mounting. A standard deck-mount skylight relies on roof slope to shed water and will pond and eventually leak on a flat or low-slope surface. Flat roofs need a curb-mounted unit raised above the roof plane with drainage specifically detailed around the base, which is a different installation method than a standard pitched-roof skylight.

What roof membrane types work with flat roof skylights?

TPO, EPDM, modified bitumen, and built-up roofing all support curb-mounted skylights, but each needs flashing and adhesion methods specific to that membrane. The crew identifies your roof membrane before finalizing the flashing approach so the skylight integrates with the existing roof system rather than working against it.
