Solar Tubes for Anderson Mill homes, done by vetted Austin-area
crews. A solar tube pulls daylight from the roof through a reflective metal tube and drops it into a room through a ceiling diffuser, no wiring, no header framing, no drywall demo beyond a ceiling and roof cut. Solar tube installation is one of the fastest daylighting jobs there is, and it's a strong fit for interior bathrooms, hallways, closets, and laundry rooms that a standard skylight can't reach because there's no direct roof access above the room.
Anderson Mill: Anderson Mill sits in the same hail-prone stretch of Central Texas as the rest of the metro, with mature tree cover typical of a neighborhood built out in the 1970s and 1980s.
