Rivera's Roofing is a skylight contractor in Lubbock, TX. We put in new skylights and we fix the ones that leak, crack or fog up. The inspection is free, and you see the price before work starts.
Free inspection. Price in writing before work starts. You deal with the owners.
Tell us what the skylight is doing and we will call you back.
A skylight is a hole in the roof with glass in it, so the person you want is a roofer. Call us when any of these show up:
Water does not wait. A small leak around a skylight soaks the drywall and the framing, so the sooner it is looked at, the smaller the fix stays.
Two skylight services, one crew. Both start with a free look at the roof. Not sure which one you need? Call and describe what you see, and we will tell you which of the two fits.
A skylight brings daylight into the rooms a window cannot reach: the hallway in the middle of the house, the bathroom, the kitchen over the counter. We cut the opening, set the unit and flash it into the roof so it sheds water like it was always there. See how we handle skylight installation in Lubbock.
Most skylight leaks start at the flashing or the seals around the frame. The glass itself is rarely the problem. We find where the water is getting in, reseal or reflash it, and swap out the domes or glass that hail has cracked. You get an honest call on whether the repair will hold. See how we handle skylight repair in Lubbock.
Same five steps on every skylight job, install or repair.
Tell us what the skylight is doing: a stain, a drip, a crack, or a room you want daylight in. We set a time that works for you.
We get on the roof and check the skylight, the flashing and the shingles around it, then look at the ceiling inside. The inspection is free.
We tell you what it needs and what it costs in writing before anything starts. You say yes or you say no, and either answer is fine.
Install or repair, the skylight gets set or sealed and the roof around it goes back watertight.
The crew cleans up the yard and the room below, then walks you through what was done so you can see it for yourself.
The price is agreed before work starts. You will never find a surprise line item on the bill after we leave.
Every skylight job is different, so we do not post prices here. These are the things that move the number up or down:
The free inspection is where the real number comes from. Once we have seen the roof and the room, the quote covers the whole job.
Hail is a real skylight hazard here. Lubbock sits in Texas hail country, and a storm like the one in June 2025 cracks an acrylic dome in a single hit. Glass holds up better, and hail-rated options exist for exactly this reason. After any bad storm, the skylight deserves a look right along with the shingles.
Then there is the sun. West Texas UV is hard on rubber seals and acrylic. Seals dry out and shrink. Old domes go cloudy and crazed until they barely let light through, and the next hailstone finishes them.
Wind-blown dust does its part too. Fine dust works into the seal bead and the weep channels, which wears the seal and clogs the drainage a skylight relies on.
And the housing stock explains the demand. Lubbock is full of slab ranch homes with long interior halls and bathrooms that have no window at all. A skylight is often the only way to get real daylight into those rooms, which is most of the install calls we get.
Rivera's Roofing is owned by Jaime Rivera Jr. and Micah L. Rivera. Micah runs the business side as business manager and co-owner, and their Google profile says they have been roofing here since 1989. Read the reviews and you see the same names customers meet: Micah and Zenia, right alongside the crew that did the work.
A skylight lives in the roof, and the flashing that keeps it dry is roof work. That is why a roofing contractor in Lubbock is who you want on the job. Call (806) 535-6570 and you talk to the owners themselves.
Every review on the Google profile is five stars. Here is every one of them, word for word.
"I was referred to Rivera's Roofing after the hail storm in June 2025. Zenia and Micah were extremely helpful, knowledgeable and quick. After the free inspection, Zenia helped with submitting the insurance claim and kept me and my insurance company updated throughout the process. Once the insurance claim was approved, Micah and her roofers got the roof replaced in one day and I am glad I went with their recommendation to use the darker color roofing material which improved my home's curb appeal."
"These guys came out and worked hard to install a great roof quickly and efficiently! They did a fantastic clean up job also! Zenia was available with helpful information through the entire process! Before and after photos posted."
"They were very nice fast, and pleasant they have my house looking good an they are very polite and friendly, professional and I really appreciate the work Rivera's done for me."
Both. Skylight installation and skylight repair are the two services under this page. We also work them into roof replacements, which is the best time to add one.
Often, yes. Most leaks start at the flashing or the seals, and those can be redone without touching the skylight itself. If hail cracked the dome or the glass, that part gets swapped. We tell you straight which one you have.
Storm damage is usually covered, wear and tear usually is not. A skylight cracked by hail is storm damage, same as the shingles around it. Get it inspected and photographed first, and if there is a claim to make we help you put it in, the same way Zenia did for Stevie.
Yes. Acrylic domes are the first thing hail takes out on a roof. A big enough stone cracks or punches through them, and even smaller hits star the plastic so it leaks later. After a storm it is worth a look from the roof, because the crack is easy to miss from the ground.
A reseal or a flashing repair is usually a few hours. Swapping a dome or glass is similar. A brand new install with the inside finish work runs longer, and weather moves everything. You get the real timeline with the price before work starts.
No state roofing license exists in Texas, which puts the weight on insurance instead. Before anyone steps on your roof, ask to see current liability coverage and workers comp for the crew.
