Skylight Repair for East Austin homes, done by vetted Austin-area crews. A leaking skylight is a same-week call, not a research project, and most leaks trace back to the flashing, not the glass. The crew you're matched with runs a hose test or checks the flashing, sealant, and curb condition to find the actual leak path before opening anything up.

Minor sealant and gasket repairs run $250 to $650. A full flashing kit replacement, needed when the metal step flashing itself has failed, runs $500 to $1,200 depending on your roofing material and pitch. The crew gives you a firm number after tracing the actual leak path, since a sealant fix on a flashing failure won't hold.
Condensation shows up as moisture on the inside of the glass, usually on cool mornings, and it's normal to some degree on any glazed surface. A real leak shows up as water staining, dripping, or a wet spot on the drywall around the light well, usually tied to rain events. If you're not sure which you have, the crew checks both during the inspection rather than guessing.
