Wells Branch homeowner questions about skylight replacement

What is skylight replacement in Wells Branch actually like?
Wells Branch shares the hail exposure common to Central Texas and the mature tree canopy typical of a neighborhood built out through the 1970s and 1980s. Northwest Hills homes from the late 1950s through 1980s are hitting the age where original skylight seals and glazing have failed, common replacement candidates.
How do I know if I need replacement instead of repair?
If the glazing is cracked, fogged from a failed seal, or the frame itself is warped or rotted, replacement is the right call. If the skylight is otherwise sound and the problem is a leak at the flashing, repair usually solves it with a smaller scope. The crew you are matched with inspects both the unit and the curb before recommending either path.
Can I use the same opening and curb for the new skylight?
Often, yes, if the curb and deck framing are still sound and the new unit's dimensions are close to the old one. Skylight standard sizes have shifted over the decades, so an exact match isn't guaranteed. When the curb has rotted or the new unit needs a different footprint, the crew rebuilds the opening rather than forcing a mismatched fit.
