A New Skylight, Flashed and Sealed to Last.

Class 4 Impact-Rated Steel
Skylight installation is structural and weatherproofing work disguised as a glass feature. It requires cutting an opening into the roof deck, framing that opening correctly, and flashing it to integrate seamlessly with the surrounding roofing material. The skylight unit itself is rarely the point of failure. The flashing and integration work around it is where quality separates a watertight installation from a future leak.
Ark installs new skylights and replaces existing units that have reached the end of their lifespan or were installed incorrectly the first time.
Hail impact, UV degradation, and dramatic temperature swings all test skylight flashing more aggressively in Central Texas than in milder climates. An installation that would hold up fine in a temperate region can fail here within a year if the flashing wasn’t done correctly. Ark’s installation standard accounts for what this specific climate does to the materials around a skylight opening.
A skylight opening is a deliberate breach in your roof’s weatherproofing envelope. Every layer of flashing, underlayment, and sealant around that opening has to work together to redirect water away from the gap rather than into it. Get the step flashing wrong, skip the underlayment extension, or use the wrong sealant for Central Texas UV exposure, and the leak shows up eventually, usually during the storm that tests it hardest.
Ark integrates skylight flashing with the surrounding roofing system as part of the installation, not as an afterthought bolted on after the roof is already done.
Ark’s VELUX Certified Installer status means that standard is applied specifically to VELUX’s flashing and installation requirements, not a generic approach adapted to fit.

Ark not only replaced my roof, they totally redone my home's exterior. The best-looking work I have ever had done. Nice to have a local Georgetown business right up the road.
The company president is personally committed to excellence from start to finish. He conducted a detailed survey, including an inspection from inside the attic and a drone overview. One of the best experiences we have ever had with a contractor.
Luke and his team were very professional and good at communicating throughout the whole process. They took care of everything and made the work pretty painless. Don't hesitate to give them a chance.
