Excellent. Mark and Tim were super responsive and did an excellent job. Mark and I first talked on the phone and he was able to get a sense of the house using Google Maps. He then came out and looked at my house, a few days later, and I picked the various types of Velux skylights for install. A few weeks later the skylights arrived and Mark and Tim came to install them. Super duper professional throughout. I will certainly use again (thinking of adding a fourth skylight at some point) and have recommended them to friends.
Description of Work: Replaced three old regular skylights with three new ones. One was a new fixed skylight, another was a fixed skylight with a solar powered sunshade, and the third was a solar powered skylight that opened. The latter two skylights were controlled by remote control units. Also did the necessary reflashing and caulking necessary to seal the skylights from the elements and attic.

Some years back, my wife and I purchased a house built in 1972 with its original skylights; skylights - two of them - that we knew would ultimately need replacing. 4 years later that time was upon us. Enter Mark Slick and the Natural Light Skylight Company. I'll just start out by saying from the first contact with him till the time the work was complete, Mark consistently met and exceeded our expectations. When for the first time we used our remote to open our new solar-powered shades letting the sun shine through our new Velux skylights, Mark had not only delivered the beautiful products he had promised, he found a way to do so weeks earlier than planned. He managed to use the Velux skylights without the extra cost of customization - our skylight cut out dimensions, standard for 1972, are NOT standard today. And he did so easily besting the conservative cost estimate he had given to us even before he came to our house to inspect the premises in person. Mark's service is terrific for any number of reasons: - He is extraordinarily mindful not to waste his customer's time and money. He used satellite imagery of our rooftop and photos of our skylights I messaged to him with my phone as the basis for his off premises estimate. - He is a great project manager. His estimate was very carefully constructed to include all contingencies, expertly and precisely calculating cost of materials, cost of labor AND the savings we will enjoy in the form of a tax rebate. - He really knows his product, has a great eye for the aesthetic decisions you'll need to make, for example suitable shade type and color options considering the existing decor, and he just loves what he does. - Finally, last, but certainly not least, Mark has got great people skills. You will enjoy having him in your house. In fact, it was because of these skills and the high regard everyone has for him that he was able find a way to use product on hand for another customer to do our installation weeks ahead of schedule, all the while keeping to the promised schedule for that other customer. In the midst of a long, hot summer, we love that we can dial the sun out with the touch of a button. We love our solar-powered shades and UV shielded skylights. Thank you Mark!

We just thought Mark was great from the moment we met him. He is the real deal~words that would describe him would be professional, honest, smart, skilled in his trade and full of integrity, not to mention super nice. He explained everything clearly and gave us options for new skylights, and did a great job of replacing them. They are beautiful and keep the house cooler. He also fixed the problem areas with the flashing around them and did such a great job with our large skylight as well. He even taught us how to open it the proper way which we had never known. He cleaned the big skylight which I had been unable to do just because he is so nice. Mark responded to our request for a bid really quickly, and we knew he was the one to do it without getting any more bids because we liked everything about him from the start. He came when he said he would, finished the job to perfection, and left everything clean and neat. He and his sidekick (Ron?Rick?-sorry I can't remember!) were just outstanding. We really enjoyed and appreciated the whole experience~thanks so much, Mark!
Description of Work: Mark and his super nice sidekick replaced our horrible bubble skylights with two superior energy efficient skylights, cleaned and fixed the flashing around them, and also cleaned/repaired our large skylight and replaced the crank mechanism with a rebuilt one that works great.

We had Mark replace a skylight with a broken seal with one that opened...great move!. He did a great job and made the process so easy for me. He was able to look at my house with Google Earth and provide me with a spot-on estimate without me ever leaving my office. He fit me in his schedule quickly, arrived on time, did excellent work and cleaned up. We have skylights that face both north and south. The broken one was on the south side. Mark said we would get better performance from the open skylight by putting it on the north side...so he removed the broken skylight, moved one of our north-facing skylights to the south side and then installed the opening skylight on the north side....FOR NO EXTRA CHARGE. He told me he just wanted to ensure the best performance for me. He was professional, friendly and a self-described 'skylight n***'. He took the time to educate me about how the skylight worked as well as the airflow of our house and how best to regulate temps with the skylight. Great guy...great service...I highly recommend him.

One of our 2 existing openable skylights had begun to leak and we needed to repair or replace them. They were about 20 years old. Mark and his partner replaced them with 2 new skylights with blinds. The new skylights (and blinds) are operated with a controller and are powered by a small solar cell at the base of the skylight. It took a couple of weeks to obtain the skylights from the manufacturer, and a little longer for a good weather day for installation. The actual job was completed by Mark and his partner in one business day. Mark showed me how to use the controller, which is quite user friendly. The skylights look great, and having blinds to help control the room temperature on hot days is a real plus.

We had two old 5 foot by 3 foot skylights that had damaged frames. I called Mark to get an estimate on replacement. Mark came out to give me a quote and was extremely professional. He showed me what was wrong with the old skylights and spent an hour properly closing and sealing the old skylights to hold me over until the new skylights were installed. We accepted the quote, gave a down payment, and Mark ordered the new skylights. When they arrived, Mark called me to schedule the install. They got the work done in one day! I am very happy with my new skylights and would recommend Mark to anyone looking for a knowledgeable, honest, and professional skylight expert.

We had s skylight that was leaking in two spots and he fixed it. This was a skylight that was installed when our home was built in the 90s. It was a mess. The fiberglass cracked and there was no saving it. We had a roofer say it could be salvaged. There was no way it could. We were skeptical and didn't want to spend ~$900 on bandaid fixes when the unit will need to he replaced. We called this company as they are specialists - they know skylights very well. I don't want a jack of all trades - I want an expert. I thought they were going to be outrageous as the roofer positioned themselves as the most cost effective option for skylight work. Not true. It took this skylight company about 30 minutes to replace the unit and overall this was the most cost effective option for us.

Mark was very professional and personable. He was punctual, addressed all concerns, and completed all work on time and exactly as quoted. He provided all information needed for rebates and energy credits. I have a concrete tile roof which had just been cleaned and inspected. Mark verified all sealing had been done correctly. I would definitely use his services in the future if needed.

I called inquiring about replacing 2 cracked skylights. Mark spent some time on the phone with me explaining different options and costs. We set up an appointment for him to come out to take actual measurements and look at our situation. I would have loved to get the solar-powered opening skylights and blinds, but they were just not in the budget. Mark was very knowledgeable about the products, options, and tax credits with the solar-powered units. We decided to go with the standard fixed skylights. Because both of our skylights were cracked, he worked us in as soon as possible. Mark and his partner were here a little after 9:00 AM the following Wednesday, and were done before 10:30. They put tarps down under both skylights and vacuumed up what little mess was made. It started lightly raining that afternoon. Thank you Mark!

Mark and Tim removed the existing skylight and replaced it with a new one. Mark explained the reasons the old one had failed and the improvements in technology and construction since the original skylight was installed. They added some trim work to make the new installation function and appear better. There was a minimum amount of work inside the home and a tvery good cleanup.

I can't say enough good things about this company. I had 3 skylights, that another contractor had improperly installed, changed out for different ones. The original contractor put in 3 skylights that were the wrong color, style and improperly installed. They had sheetrocked them shut because they had 2 people do the job, 1 do the roofing part and a sheetrocker who had never sheetrocked skylights, sheetrock them shut. So when I called Mark from Natural Light Skylight Co. he was on vacation. He still responded to all my questions. He asked for me to text him some pictures of the skylights so he could get an idea of the problem, while he was on vacation! Not many people would be willing to care about work while on vacation, but he did. So he kept in touch me while he was on vacation and through speaking on the phone and the pictures I texted, he gave me a quote. He came and changed out my skylights right when he got back from his vacation. I forgot to say that he also educated me on all the choices I had, since I had gotten the wrong skylights put in originally because the original contractor never had offered any choices. He gave me the most inexpensive option (dig out some of the sheetrock and put a crank on) or change the skylight out , for something like I originally wanted. I chose to change them out for ones with blinds, but these were even better, because they were solar powered blinds that the company offers a 30% tax break for. Mark was punctual and fast at changing them out and they looked great! I really can't say enough good things about Mark. He's a great guy, who really cares. After all the negative experiences I've had with other contractors, he was a breath of fresh air. I plan on getting other skylights and will definitely have him do them.

I contacted Mark to get an estimate on replacing a number of skylights. He was sick as a dog when I contacted him, but he made a grand effort to answer all of my questions and provide great detail to his process, service, options, etc. He made the entire engagement pleasant and professional. Using Google Earth and my emailed photos, he knew exactly what sizes and styles of windows were going to be the best choices. When he felt just a tad better, he came to the house, showed me the materials, climbed up on the roof and got the job planned and ready. We put the deal together, he ordered the materials, and he and his ace assistant came in and installed the new skylights in less than two hours, being careful to put down tarps on the interior to protect furniture, etc. They got it done, cleaned it up, smiled and said "Thanks for the business" and rode off into the sunset.

Mark was great to work with. We had a skylight that was about 15 years old and the seal started to fail. We sent him an email through Angi''s list late one evening and he responded the same night with a note that he would call by 9:00am. He called promptly the next morning. He looked our house up on Google maps and asked if it was the skylight on the north or south side. I sent him pictures and he knew exactly what type it was. He provided a quote for a new energy efficient skylight. He was prompt and professional and took great care to make sure everything in the house was protected while he was working. He even completed a small gutter repair for us while he was on the roof at no charge. Simply.... WOW! I would highly recommend Natural LIght Skylights Company!

They were great. Mark is very careful and planned with me how to get the optimum natural light into my kitchen. We worked together on the placement and the results are pretty stunning. He was even willing to have me hold back some money so he could search for these special lenses. I like that Mark works the jobs himself, with his very amicable assistant Tim. He checks with you regularly as the job progresses and they are neat and orderly. All-in-all I am very please with this company and the new light in my kitchen.

From the first contact to the final clean-up, Mark was professional in every manner. He was more knowledgeable than any of the others I contacted. I liked the fact that he used Google Earth to look at our situation while we were on the phone and discuss our options. His knowledge and experience runs deep and the products he carries are top quality. From initial contact to final install was less than one week, and there was a holiday that week. The price wasn't the lowest, but the product quality was the best I looked at. Considering that the price was in the range of the others, THIS WAS GREAT VALUE.
