Skylights Unlimited Inc

I am very pleased with my skylight. I am sure to save on energy costs as the top floor is now cooler. The service was excellent, on time and courteous.

We asked Skylights Unlimited to give us a quote to replace two damaged/leaky skylights. We had seen the company working on a neighbour's skylights, and the neighbour was happy with their services. Owner Denis Charron came promptly to give a quote. His explanation of the work required was remarkably clear and detailed. The work itself was done in a timely manner, workers were unobtrusive, cleaned up at the end.
Denis Charron had told me that the new skylights would reduce the heat gain on the top floor of the house. Indeed, he is correct, we are pleasantly surprised at how much cooler the top floor of the house is even on a hot day. Denis' prediction about our AC working better after the new skylights now has come true!

It's been about a year since we had our new skylights installed by Skylights Unlimited, and my only regret is that we did not do it sooner! Instead of two leaky old "bubble"-style skylights that acted as a magnifying glass on the third floor of our townhouse, making it uninhabitable all summer, we now have two good-looking, watertight insulated skylights with blinds that make our upstairs room usable all year round. The difference in temperature is amazing. Even better, one of the skylights opens to let in fresh air. And I just love the remote-control blind. It's a joy to sit and read under the skylights now, rain or shine.
The Skylights Unlimited team made the whole experience painless from start to finish, from the initial estimate through to the installation and cleanup. They were friendly, efficient and their work was immaculate. They know their product and make it clear why it's an excellent value. I highly recommend them as the go-to choice for skylights.

We had skylights installed just when the company started and they were great although when we had the roof done shortly after they leaked. The roofers blamed the Skylights and the Skylight company blamed the roofers therefore they leaked for awhile.

Eventually we had them replaced by the same company. It was obvious circumstances had changed with the company as work was outsourced the skylights were basically placed where the existing ones had been without bothering to make it look nice. Also none of the differences in the product were explained as they are now glass the look dirty all the time, the rain is loud and because they are flat the quality of light is inferior. If you have a bubble skylights don't get rid of them..in my opinion they are superior to the glass flat skylights. BUT they don't leak..that was truly horrible.

All in all there was minimal attention to detail and no personal service only weeks after installation they called us to find out if we wanted to replace our skylights. I think they were drumming up business from old lists of customers. We have cracks appearing and when we called they said to just fill it in with a little crack filler. Nice.

No leaks, great energy savings, and cleaned up very well. Wish I had used them for the first installation. Neighbors have used them too and are very satisfied. Job well done.

I have been extremely pleased with the job that Skylights Unlimited did of replacing my skylight and redoing the valley below it. The workers were very professional and the follow up with pictures kept me informed.

We had an acrylic dome skylight that was acting like a magnifying glass in our 3-storey townhouse. We wanted to replace the skylight with an energy-efficient, low-e, glass skylight with an integrated shade.

With other companies, we received one quote by phone, and then an inflated quote when the representative came out to see us. I guess they sized us up as being able to "afford" a premium for the install. Not so with Skylights Unlimited. Their quote was competitive, consistent, and when we added extras (solar-powered shade, venting) the cost only went up marginally (only by the amount that Velux charged for the extra -- not a special, nice-home premium).

To top it off, the team was professional, efficient and (we could hear them on our roof) took extra steps to do the job well. We needed an extension rod for our cathedral ceiling (we opted for the manual venting skylight, not electronic) and someone from Skylights Unlimited drove it over to our place the next week. No extra charge.

I would recommend to anyone who would like to install a skylight to go with Skylights Unlimited. The pre-installation interview with Denis provided me with the honest advice of using good Velux products, as well as the suggestion of a complete service which included not only the installation of the skylight, but also repairing the damaged stucco ceiling due to water leakage. The price was also reasonable. The technicians who did the installation and repair services are experienced, skillful and courteous. Now I have a no leak skylight and my stucco ceiling is restored back into shape. The job was well done.

Thanks,

Davey

I found Skylights Unlimited by googling on the internet. After reading their online reviews and meeting with Denis, I have decided to use Skylights Unlimited for our new skylight installation. Denis was very helpful and quick to respond to any of my questions. He also provided great referrals for ceiling work that needs to be done at my house. He was very accomodating and allowed their scaffold (built by his team) to be re-used by another contractor to finish off the ceiling work. His team of men, Ed, Gord and Darko were very professional, clean and provided great advice for any question that I have related to my house. I would definitely use them again and refer them to friends/relatives. Great job!

In 2001, Denis and his crew installed a large ( 4 ft x 4 ft) skylight and a smaller for us. Both were Velux. We have been very happy with them for the past 10 years. The job was well done and they kept the area clean. Recently, the large one leaked a tiny bit. The leak was so minor that we debated whether it was actually a leak or condensation, and should we call in Denis to fix it at all? It did not leak for the following month while we decided, although there had been heavy rains and storms. It had not leaked all winter or ever before. When there's a 4 foot hole in your roof, you do fix it. With the rainy spring, scheduling the repair was tricky, but eventually, there was a good day to go ahead. Denis sent two polite young men and a repair kit. They spent 3 hours removing the glass, cleaning the channels, installing the kit and glass, and carefully caulked it all. It is now guaranteed for another ten years. We're happy with the work and would not hesitate to recommend Denis and his crew. They are very knowledgeable and do not rush the job to get to the next one.
