"My wife and I received 5 bids for our deck refinishing project. We asked for a detailed statement of work, and Costas provided us with a thorough and comprehensive list, and he won our business. He is professional, prompt, readily reachable, practical, and knowledgeable. We value his advice. He has a good team, and the work was completed on schedule, and the attention and care to detail is exemplary. We are 100% satisfied with the result, and will work with True North again."

"Bobby was fabulous - I had barely submitted my request via service magic before h e called. He had his guys out to our house the next day and somehow, miraculously, they climbed through the huge snow banks to get up on our roof and deice the wall of ice we had up there. Very friendly, helpful, and reliable. Would call him again in a heart beat."

"I called Paul Modzeleski on a Friday. He came by Monday and gave me an estimate after about 30 minutes of measuring, discussing and calculating. I gave him the go-ahead that night, knowing that he had an opening two days later. (I did not seek estimates elsewhere as a lower estimate would not have particularly interested me; they are not primarily marketing on price.) The shingles and other GAF products were delivered to my driveway by the wholesaler (Heritage Wholesale) on Tuesday, the day before the job. Without my asking, the wholesale delivery man / forklift operator volunteered that Sentry was a great crew.
They got to my house at 8AM Wednesday with a crew of 6, soon augmented to 8. This manpower and their equipment (including a gas-powered hoist) proved enough to do the job the same day, which is a plus when rain threatens later, as it did. They put down tarps, stripped everything off, and put up a new roof with ridge vents and working around skylights. Squashing of foundation plants was minimal and I don't think could have been less (only dying bulb foliage, and a bush that was already brittle and half-dead and slated for replacement, were damaged).
Their crew leader/foreman was knowledgeable and friendly. I was using a pair of binoculars to scan the roof; I pointed out to the foreman a small crease in one of the shingles, which he had a man replace quickly, and without any disagreeableness. They did a very thorough job cleaning up as the job progressed, and at the end of the job, including wheeling around a magnet to pick up nails. 
I am very satisfied and have already recommended them to 2 other couples who, prompted by my news, said they were looking into a roof.

"We recently had a complete roof replacement. Before proceeding, we did comprehensive research of area companies and Vista came out on top, with good reason! All appointments were not only on time but were extremely punctual. We met first with Product Specialist Holly, who was enthusiastic, very knowledgeable and helpful. While at our home assessing the proposed job, Project manager Rick explained the entire process in layman's terms. The day of the job, Project Supervisor Marc arrived early and went over the entire job with the crew. All company representatives left us with a business card with their cell #'s to call if we required anything. The installation crew was amazing. They arrived early and began immediately. They were no nonsense, very focused and, worked like a well oiled machine. All Vista team members were polite and respectful of my special request to be cognizant around some of my more cherished trees & shrubs. Vista was fastidious in their care for my home and lawn, not one speck of debris was left behind. Vista, the installation crew, company representatives, everyone, exceeded our expectations. Vista stands behind their work and products. If you wish to relax after a major home improvement project knowing the job was done correctly, you will want to consider Vista. Dan & Kim Belchertown"

"The workers were great and worked in some rough weather. The roof looked great when finished. There is a small customer satisfaction issue that keeps me from giving them an A across the board. I had a major leak around my skylight during the very next heavy rain. The roofer came out the following day without a ladder so he could not get a good look at the skylight but did point out a problem with my gutters which I fixed the following day. I took a good look at my skylight while I was up there and found the flashing in the back had popped off at some point and fixed it. So most of my leak is fixed. The end caps/flashing on my skylight however went missing. That is my issue. They said they would be back but have not showed up. If you get a new roof I suggest new flashing on everything. Insist on it."

"They were the only roofing Co willing to do a small sunroom roof replacement that had a skylight that was 20 yrs old and started leaking, so I could not wait to have the work done. I had a high-quality set of gutters and leaf/rain guard installed which they took no care of when carelessly removing old shingles. And the price to replace the skylight was higher than it should have been. But the work needed to be done. And all the recommended roofers were too busy with full roofing work at the time."

Skylights questions, answered by experts

Yes, you can add blinds or shades to both roof windows and skylights, but roof windows tend to have more options available. Retractable skylight shades are popular on both options for added privacy, light control, and heat reduction, although they’re more expensive than manually-operated blinds or shades. If you have a roof window or skylight set in a high ceiling, a motorized or solar-powered skylight window covering is probably your best bet.

Local window and door specialists, glaziers, and roofers should all install skylights. You can also do an internet search to find companies that specialize in skylight installation near you. Keep in mind that skylight installation is very complex and can be dangerous without the proper tools and safety precautions, so we don’t recommend this as a DIY project.

Whether you need a permit to install a skylight depends on the scope of the project and local regulations. Generally, permits are required if the installation involves altering the structural components of your home, such as moving roof rafters. In some municipalities, a permit might also be necessary if the skylight protrudes above the highest point of your existing roof. However, if no structural changes are made, a permit may not be needed. The cost for a skylight installation permit is typically under $100. A convenient time to add a skylight is during a roof replacement, as your contractor can incorporate the new opening into the design.

The most popular treatment for a skylight is skylight shades. There are five primary types: manual, motorized, blackout, cellular//honeycomb, and Venetian. Motorized skylight shades are the most convenient, especially for skylights that are higher up, but manual shades are the most cost-effective treatments. Cellular/honeycomb shades are a perfect option for anyone who wants energy efficiency and an attractive look.

Water will leak through a skylight if there are issues in the sealing of the skylight. Find and fix those issues yourself if possible, but it’s a good idea to contact a professional, as there could be much more water damage than you initially saw. Plus, it’s dangerous to work on a roof without the proper safety equipment and know-how.
