We purchased skylights through Mark, and he was great about taking time (on a weekend!) to help us figure out which windows would work best for us. Extremely knowledgeable, and although he was booked up and couldn't do the work, he was happy to be available should our second choice need any advice on installation.
Description of Work: Mark couldn't do the work because he was too busy, but he recommended someone else.

The project went very well. Mark visited us quite soon after the initial call and gave us 3 options for taking care of our problem of inadequate light in the living room due to porch roof. Mark was especially sensitive to costs and gave top to bottom line solutions. As soon as weather permitted he arrived and in one day installed 3 new skylights and replaced two others returning the next Monday to finish. The job was highly professional.
Description of Work: Mark installed a custom size three lite skylight and replacement of three existing skylights with new flashing. These were exterior on a wrap-around porch.

They completed the job in 3.5 days (Wed-Fri, and then part of Monday), which would have taken only three days but one of their crew had a small accident (cut finger). They were extremely professional, respectful (wore booties to protect carpet, covered everything to protect from dust, cleaned up impeccably afterwards), and helpful. Mark even inspected my roof for a leak that happened in another part of the house while they were there (due to a major wind/rainstorm) and recommended a great roofer. They were very concerned about the delay (even though I wasn't), and made sure it was OK to finish the following Monday, and Mark came over and did the work himself. They were all very personable and I felt comfortable leaving my key and letting them let themselves in and out of the house. I would recommend them highly. The skylights look great!
Description of Work: Mark and his team installed two skylights in our attic converted bedroom. They also relocated a fan. The skylights they installed were velux and they also installed venetian blinds.

Based on my phone conversation with Mark, I decided I wanted have him give me an official quote. To do this, he needed to come to the house to see the cracked skylight and take measurements. We were playing phone tag trying to coordinate a date for him to come out and the next thing I know, I get a voice message from him saying he came to the house when I wasn't home to do the site inspection. Since I didn't know him from "Adam" and I am somewhat liability paranoid, I did not appreciate this. The skylight ended up being 3' x 4' (not a standard size) and he quoted $750. I got one other quote from a local remodeling company that doesn't specialize in skylights which was higher. A third company didn't even return my calls after leaving two messages. Mark's workmanship is excellent and he is very pleasant and knowledgeable. The price was what he quoted, no surprises. I would definitely use his services again.
Description of Work: Mark replaced one of our skylights that was cracked the full width of the skylight.

Mark was very professional and easy to talk to. He explained options and answered all our questions. His crew, who actually did the work, were prompt and courteous. They were careful to cover all affected areas, as well as cleaned up afterwards. Mark followed up the next day to make sure we were satisfied with the work performed. I would highly recommend this company! A++
Description of Work: Mark graciously inspected our skylights after an estimate call at our neighbor's. He climbed on the roof and found 2 of the 3 skylights had seals that were ''at risk''. He showed us parts that were literally lying on the roof and drew out pictures of what it currently looked like, compared to how it should be. He taped up seals before he left with no commitment from us.

Although it was difficult to get in contact with Mark, the owner/quoter, when he came over, he was very knowledgeable. Was able to get lights installed within 2 weeks of approving the quote because one of their larger projects was delayed.

Was on time, polite and professional. A little spendy, but worth it.
Description of Work: Excellent work. It took some time to get an estimate, but was in contact with us. Once we agreed on the work, the work was done quickly and professionally. They removed an old skylight and installed a new, more efficient, small skylight in our bathroom. Also repaired the roofing after taking out old skylight.

The entire experience was great. Mark suggested options regarding the placement of the skylights to achieve various effects. He invited us to visit his shop to actually see the lights which helped us make the decision between the various brands. The install started during a heavy rain, yet the excellent site prep prevented any water from getting into the house. Communication regarding the various finishing options was good. Final cleanup of the site was good. Terrific contractor!
Description of Work: Mark and his crew installed a bank of three skylights in our dining room, and a single skylight in our study.

Mark is a pleasure to work with. Honest, reliable, and genuinely interested in satisfying his customers. He was easily accessible and always had time to assist and advise me. His many years in the business make him a great resource, in both technically know-how and aesthetic design. His recommendations come from tried and true experience. His prices match or beat the big box store. Availability of products was excellent. Mark had all of my skylights on site while the big box store told me it would take 21 days to get them.
Description of Work: I purchased my skylights and "sun tunnels" from Natural Light Skylights. Mark, the owner, gave me excellent advice about how to select the right skylights for my purposes. I am very happy with them. I did not have Mark install my skylights, but in hindsight I wish I had. Instead, I had the roofing company install them while they re-shingled the roof. While the roofer did the installation for "free", some mistakes were made that a skylight professional such as Mark would not have made.

Mark was knowledgeable, personable and articulate, returned his phone calls, dealt with minor issues that arose after installation, and in general was a pleasure to deal with. He is very experienced and knows his products well. He explained our choices (hand crank versus electric, etc.) in an easy to understand way, explained the advantages of the products he recommended, and gave us options for different budgets. And, of course, he did a fine job installing the skylight, with which we are delighted. I'd recommend Mark and Natural Light to anyone looking for skylights of any sort.
Description of Work: Natural Light removed our old fixed acrylic skylight in our bedroom and replaced it with an electric opening skylight. Mark also replaced some roofing material around the skylight decking, and installed the new skylight decking that was required for this different configuration of skylight.

This company is known in our neighborhood as ''the one'' to use to install skylights and to do skylight repairs. The work they completed in my home rates five stars. All three: Mark, Doug and Ryan were wonderful to have around the house. They are efficient, are very careful to do top quality work and are cheerful. They completed the job on time and even were able to begin the project a week earlier than the promised start time. They explained what they were going each step of the way. There just aren't enough words to describe how highly I value this company. You might have to wait awhile to get them to work with you as they are in high demand. But, believe me, it will be worth the wait.

At our initial visit, Mark provided excellent suggestions on where to place out skylights to get the amount of light and contemporary look we were hoping for. A team of 3 guys performed the work. They were on time, worked hard, did a good job installing the skylights, and cleaned up. They are professional and know what they are doing. I'd hire them again anytime.
Description of Work: They installed 3 new Velux skylights (two 2by6 and one 2by4) and replaced one old skylight with a Thermolite (2by4). The two smaller skylights open.

Mark and his crew were prompt and professional. The entire experience was a joy. They protected the flooring from dirt and ladders. They worked as a team and were very efficient. No question was too small. One of my most pleasant experiences with contractors in the home. I would totally hire them again.

(Funtionality--window opening; blind tilting; blind raising; rain sensor--all electrically operated and controlled via remote control.) Two 2' X 4' fixed curb mount skylights were replaced with fixed Thermolite Low E products.

We have been extremely pleased with each of our encounters with Mark. He is very knowledgeable about skylights. We were very happy with the repair job Mark did two years ago and with the recent installation done by two guys who work with Mark (Doug and Ryan). Mark, Doug, and Ryan have always arrived when they said they would, were very pleasant, seemed very capable and knowledgeable, and were very careful to protect our furniture, etc. while working. I was a little concerned when it started to rain during the recent installation, but in no time, Doug and Ryan had a canopy put up on the roof to prevent any water from entering the hole in the roof. We feel very fortunate to have found Mark and have no hesitation in recommending him.
Description of Work: Four years ago, we bought two skylights from Mark. He didn't install them; we already had a contractor lined up to do it. Two years ago, an older skylight developed a crack. We called Mark, and after finding out we had a new roof installed a few months prior, he suspected the roofers may have caused the crack. Mark came out, inspected the skylight, and determined that this was the case. It turns out Mark has a very good reputation with our roofing company; the owner of the roofing company said if Mark says the roofers caused the crack, then we'll go along with that and pay Mark to fix the problem. Mark replaced the broken glass. We bought a new home recently and needed to replace two skylights. We called Mark. He came out to discuss our options and even discussed things such as optimal open positions for openable skylights, in order to get good ventilation. The amount of $2,550 was for the recent job (installation of two 4'x4' opening skylights and shades).

Mark was on time, very courteous, and fun to work with. The work went exactly as Mark said it would and was completed on time with minimal fuss. We were very impressed by Mark's professionalism and willingness to make us satisfied customers. We would have no hesitation in recommending Mark's services if you need to install skylights.
Description of Work: We had a very dark entry way, stairwell, and living room area in the center of the house that required the lights to be on at all times of the day. Mark surveyed our attic, construction of our ceiling, and roof and suggested several alternatives. Things were also complicated with the fact that we have a false cathedral ceiling. We decided on the installation of a custom built ridge skylight measuring 5'x8'. Now we have beautiful sunlight that fills our house and a nice piece of architecture in our ceiling with the angle of the well and sheet-rocked ceiling beams.

Mark has ruined us for hiring other contractors. He is the person against which we will judge all other contractors - and they'll probably be found wanting. He is a true craftsman, who is extremely professional and brings a real passion to his work. He found his niche with skylights and brings years of experience and knowledge to the job. We needed to replace an old skylight in our entryway and we were also considering adding a skylight to our bedroom. Luckily, he had an opening in his schedule to squeeze us in for the replacement. He brought a great crew who quickly and efficiently installed the venting skylight. While this project wasn't cheap for our budget, the quality of work and ease of working with Mark was worth it. You get what you pay for. We decided to wait on the bedroom project until our budget allows, but Mark looked at the asthetics and dynamics of air flow to offer several great options. We'll definely be using Mark when we're ready to move forward with that project.

Mark and his crew installed an oversized venting Velux skylight in an upstairs bathroom of our 100 year old Victorian house. The bathroom had nominal light from a non-opening, antique stained-glass window & no ventilation. Mark came over quickspeed to give us an estimate, was wonderfully creative in suggesting an oversized skylight for our unique layout, and came back to install our skylight nearly a month before we were originally scheduled. He & his crew worked on our roof in the pouring rain, and our skylight was completely installed in one day. They were SUPER professional, and we now have natural light and ventilation in our bathroom. What a major improvement! We'd never use anyone else for our future skylight needs!

I discovered this company right here on Angie's List! They appeared to be the highest ranked of those specializing in skylights within the list. (We had a poor experience in the past with a roofing company who also bid on this project. We decided we wanted a specialist for this task.) Mark, the owner of the company, came to our house to give us ideas and suggestions regarding best suitability, positioning and aesthetics of the lights. He was very professional, patient and thorough in his explanations and suggestions. Once the job began, he and his two employees were always on time and cautious about damaging floors, walls and belongings. Doug and Ryan were exemplary in their detail, professionalism and courtesy. Work was performed quietly and unobtrusively. (I was even able to take a nap while they worked!) Clean-up was performed at the end of each day. Mark called a couple of weeks after finishing to see if everything was alright. I suggest you call Natural Skylights first!
Description of Work: Placed three manual venting VS Velux (model #106 - I think)skylights in our upstairs master bedroom and stairwell. Cut and re-framed roof joists in ceiling and trimmed out all openings. (Though somewhat expensive, you get what you pay for.)
