I needed my 2 acrylic domed skylights replaced and after reviewing several skylight installers on homestars and getting quotes, I decided to go with Skylights Unlimited and I was glad I did. Their quote was comparable to others and they actually matched a lower quote. Denis the owner came by assessed and described the work to be done which was nothing out of the ordinary. Their installers (Gerik and Goran) came on time and were providing me information throughout the whole installation. The only issue was the shingles that they brought did not match the existing shingles on the roof. Since it was the holiday weekend, many roofing suppliers were closed and Denis and Santo assured me that they will find a vendor who sells these shingles. After a couple of follow up calls with Skylights Unlimited, they found the shingles and their installers finished up the job and right on time as well..a day before the a huge rainstorm! They put enough ice and water shield so that no their would be no leaks and sure enough there wasn't. My wife and I are happy with the new skylights and they make a huge difference in terms of looks, noise and energy efficiency. I definitely woule recommend them to anyone who wants to use their services.
- Approximate cost of services:
- $2,100.00
- Any advice to offer fellow homeowners facing a similar project?
- Make sure you get an energy audit before you do anytype of work that inolves using energy efficient producst in order to take advantage of the grants. Also, make sure the installers have the same type of shingles to match your existing ones.

Hi Gerry,
We're glad you're happy. I must admit it was difficult finding your match for shingles. I recall even your roofer had the wrong colour on his quote. Thanks for your patience during our hunt for shingles. There is a huge difference going from Dome (acrylic/plastic) to Velux LoE3 Energy Star Rated glass skylights. You not only see the difference but also feel the difference. Enjoy your skylights.
Regards,
Santo
