San Angelo Roof Pros provides professional skylights in San Angelo, TX for residential and commercial properties across the Concho Valley. Skylights fail at the framing far more often than at the glass. On a board deck the point is sharper than usual, because a curb has to land on real structure and a board edge is not real structure, whatever it looks like once the shingles are off.
So a retrofit here is partly a carpentry job. The opening gets cut, headers go in between the rafters, and blocking is added so every side of the curb is supported by framing rather than by the unsupported end of a plank. Skip that and the curb racks slightly as the roof moves through its seasonal cycle, which opens the very joint the flashing is trying to protect.
We install curb-mounted units on most low and medium-slope roofs and use the manufacturer's own step-flashing kit rather than a fabricated substitute. Head flashing over the underlayment, sides woven into the courses, apron at the bottom lapped correctly, and a self-adhered membrane wrapping the whole curb before any metal goes on. Sealant is a backup in that assembly and never the plan, which is why we do not price a skylight by the tube.
Glazing choice matters in this sun more than in most places. Laminated glass with a low-emissivity coating cuts the solar heat gain that makes an unshaded skylight a liability by July, and it holds together rather than showering the room if a hailstone finds it. Plastic domes cost less and they haze, yellow and craze here faster than the brochure suggests, so on a west-facing plane we would rather you spend the difference once than twice.
Sun tunnels are the underrated option and we fit a lot of them. A reflective tube of ten or fourteen inches will light a dark hallway, a closet or an interior bathroom through a far smaller opening, with no framing altered and nothing like the heat gain of a glazed unit the same width. For most rooms people ask us about, it is the better buy.
Repairs we handle without replacing the unit when that is fair. Failed perimeter sealant, cracked or corroded flashing, condensation being mistaken for a leak, a fogged sealed unit that can be swapped on its own. When the frame itself has gone or the flashing was never right, we say so and replace it properly rather than adding another layer of caulk.
Our licensed and insured team brings the right materials and equipment to every job — 1x6 board decking, 7/16 inch OSB sheathing overlay, ring-shank roofing nails, UL 2218 Class 4 impact-rated laminates, self-adhered valley membrane, R-panel over 1x4 wood battens — and backs the work with a written workmanship warranty. We serve San Angelo and nearby communities including Grape Creek, Christoval, Miles, Rowena.

Materials, equipment and how we do skylights
The difference between skylights that lasts and skylights that gets redone in three years is almost always preparation and materials, not the finish you see on day one. We work with 1x6 board decking, 7/16 inch OSB sheathing overlay, ring-shank roofing nails, UL 2218 Class 4 impact-rated laminates, spec them to the job instead of to the invoice, and write the material grades into the free estimate so you know exactly what you are buying.
Every San Angelo job runs the same way: site walk and measurements, written scope and fixed price, protection of the surrounding area, then the work itself with a daily clean-up. Years of roofing work in the Concho Valley means we have already met whatever your property is going to throw at us — awkward access, older construction, an HOA with opinions.

Why San Angelo Chooses San Angelo Roof Pros
- ✓We open a test area and measure the board gaps before writing a replacement estimate, so the sheathing quantity is measured rather than discovered mid-job.
- ✓Every proposal names a fastening pattern and a nail length, because on a plank deck the fastener decides the outcome more than the shingle brand does.
- ✓Hail inspections are recorded by slope aspect with ten-foot test squares, so a west elevation is never averaged against a sheltered north one.
- ✓We will recommend metal panel over new battens on outbuildings when it saves you the cost of a sheathing overlay entirely.
The standards behind skylights
Quality here is not a matter of opinion — it is written down. The skylights work we do in San Angelo follows published industry standards: NRCA publishes the Roofing Manual, the industry's reference for details and slope minimums, and Asphalt Roofing Manufacturers Association sets the shingle application and ventilation guidance the warranties reference. If a contractor cannot tell you which standard a detail comes from, that is worth asking about before you sign.
Every skylights project in San Angelo gets the same attention, whether it is a single room or a full commercial job. We show up on schedule, keep the site clean, and stand behind the work — the estimate is free and there is no pressure.
