Finally replaced that old skylight

Sought out Skylights Unlimited because of their certified Velux installers when an ancient skylight sprung a leak. Denis was a great professional to work with, appreciated his expertise and frank assessment. Our new Velux skylight and blinds are great, took the temperature in our loft down 5 degrees in the summer adding the blinds and ability to open and vent. We're very happy with this project.

Thanks for the feedback on that new opening skylight + blind.
Because a opening skylight is usually at the highest point of the house, it can produce that "chimney effect".
Hot air wants to rise and escape quite naturally and that allows the cool A/C air to take its place.
Much more comfortable.
Enjoy the cool fresh air.

Remove old skylight and install new.

Excellent work. On time and very clean. Installers were very polite and did excellent work. The owner of this company installed our original skylight in 1988.

It was such a pleasure to se a client from way back in 1988.
That is the year I started the company.
And, although the original skylight had a cracked dome, it was 36 years old....Good Lifespan!!
I think you will enjoy the new LoE3 glass skylight from Velux. It has improved energy efficiency and will help stop the heat gain from the hot summer sun.

Thanks for your feedback.
We wanted to make sure it wasn't related to the skylight and, since it was a minor roof issue it was our pleasure to take care of it for you.

2 Skylights brighten my day

I'm so happy when I see the brightness in my family room even on cloudy days, it makes a big difference. The workmanship and preciseness of the labour is so evident that all my friends & family notice right away. Skylights Unlimited were so careful to ensure minimal disruption, very detailed and always tidy. A pleasure to have working in my home anytime.

Always use specialists when the risk of not doing so is high eg. when cutting holes in your roof

We had two skylights installed during a large reno about 15 years ago. For some time we've had condensation issues with both, so thought they were probably builder grade (we were on a very tight budget) and likely needed replacement. Denis came out for a look and to our surprise, the originals were actually quality Vulex skylights, but entry level, and still had some life left in them. We decided to replace them anyway, given our condensation challenges. We received a surprisingly reasonable quote and the team was ready to go in just a couple of weeks. When Chime and Liam started to remove the original skylights it became clear they'd been improperly installed, and this was the source of our problem. The guys had the old ones out, and the new top tier Velux skylights in, along with a solar blind, in half a day. They were friendly, fastidious and skilled. General contractors do a lot of good things, but when it comes to sensitive things like cutting big holes in your roof, I cannot emphasize enough the importance of going with a specialist who does only this for a living. We highly recommend Skylights Unlimited and have zero hesitation recommending them to our friends and family. Great job guys!

Thanks for such detailed feedback.
Although the original skylights were Velux ( which are the best ) they were not well sealed against air infiltration.
That can cause condensation in the winter. So, with the new triple pane LoE3 glass units you will have much better comfort inside and no more condensation.
Enjoy the sunshine!

New Skylight

We had a serious leak from our old skylight...from our first contact with Denis and then with Chime (the installer), the service was honest, efficient, professional, fairly priced...every promise they made came true. When Chime installed the skylight, he provided excellent feedback and advice...telling exactly what he was doing and why. Thank you!
