What Your Neighbors Are Saying:

“Many thanks, Doug. From day one of our plea for help in making our home as functional and lovely in the future as it is now, you listened and answered with compassion and thoroughness. Not only were you on time for our visit, you followed through in a timely manner with answers, additional information, and photos of potential solutions. Your systematic list relieved our anxiety about aging in place in a home where we hope to stay.”

“Thanks so much for sending us a thorough report that helped us set our home refurbishment priorities. Both the assessment and the resources are invaluable and will help us move quickly on smaller, doable projects such as improving lighting and securing rugs. You provide an excellent service, one we are happy to recommend to others!"

"We recently had Doug Zabor certify our home for sale as meeting aging-in-place criteria set by the Triangle MLS (Multiple Listing Services). The process was very easy, as Doug had a list of all the necessary requirements and was very efficient in going through them and explaining the benefits. He was able to tell us our score immediately and made suggestions for improvements.”

What Your Neighbors Are Saying:

"John was amazing to work with! He actually returned our call (unlike some other vendors). On top of communicating and following up with us, he paid attention to the weather and squeezed our job in between rainstorms. I appreciate that he was in tune with his schedule and our needs. He is friendly and easy to work with. Very fair pricing compared to at least one other vendor."

"We used John's services for a> concrete patio. It needed to meet certain specifications, and John was more than willing to contact the other vendor for us, to find out information that I was having a hard time understanding. It was not a huge job, but I'm not used to such excellent customer service."

What Your Neighbors Are Saying:

"We had Sunlit Homes <Editor's note: Carolina Skylights was formerly Sunlit Homes> install two tubes and an attic fan. We were 100% satisfied with their service from the first phone call to the end result, and we recommend them highly."

"In early 2018, Sunlit Homes <Editor's note: Carolina Skylights was formerly Sunlit Homes> installed three Solatubes installed in our kitchen. What a wonderful difference the daylight made (and even the bright evening moonlight, which can provide some nice nighttime lighting effects). In the daytime, guests often ask where the on/off switch is located, believing the Solatubes to be electric lights. The diffusers spread the light pleasantly throughout the kitchen, and we are very pleased with the installation."

Paul was such a good sport and delivered the item exactly as promised. Highly recommended!"
