Installation for Bastrop homes, done by vetted Austin-area
crews. New skylight installation in Austin means more than cutting a hole in the roof. The crew you're matched with picks curb mount or deck mount based on your roof pitch and framing, sizes the glazing to Austin's climate zone, and steps the flashing correctly so the unit sheds water instead of collecting it.
Bastrop: Bastrop shares the same hail alley exposure as the rest of Central Texas, and its mixed small town character means roofs here range from older county seat homes to newer construction on the edges of town.

Why is installation different in East Metro?
Manor's Whisper Valley community already ships every home with solar and geothermal systems, so a skylight pitch there lands as finishing the energy story with daylight, not introducing a new concept. Elgin's mixed housing ages, from pre-1939 stock to new construction, make it the strongest dual-angle install market in the East Metro.

How much does skylight installation cost in Austin?
A basic fixed skylight installed on an easy composition-shingle roof usually runs $400 to $1,200. A vented, remote-controlled unit with rain sensors and upgraded low-e glazing runs $900 to $2,800. Steep pitches, tile or metal roofing, and new framing between rafters add to the number. The crew you are matched with gives you a firm quote after a roof walk, not a phone estimate.
Curb mount or deck mount, which is right for my roof?
Deck mount sits flush against the roof deck and suits most standard-pitch composition shingle roofs common in Central Austin's mid-century ranch stock. Curb mount raises the unit on a short frame and is the standard choice for low-slope and flat roofs, which is why it's the default on many mid-century and commercial buildings across the metro. The crew evaluates your pitch and picks the method that sheds water correctly.
