The solar tube has made a huge difference in the bathroom, thank you, but not only there…..the light spills out into the passageway and is illuminating that area as well!

Thank you for your email and for your excellent service. We are very thrilled with the solar tubes and suitably surprised each morning to come in to the room and find that “someone has left the lights on” cos that’s how it appears!
We appreciate very much Tim, the extra miles you went to, washing the roof down, keeping the room clean, replacing those broken tiles with the ones you took out, putting the extras away and taking the broken ones. It was a great help to me, as Mike was unable to do any jobs.

Would highly recommend Hometech Solatube. We had 2 installed last week and are blown away with how much of a difference they have made to the entrance hall and the tiny office room we have. The skylight that was in the office was useless and l had to always work with the electric light on. Now, l have to keep reminding myself that there is no light on! Plus the white light is so much better than the electric. Tim got us to choose the internal surround and it’s made a feature on the ceiling. Very thrilled.
Tim was efficient and a very tidy worker and we appreciated the drop sheets and clean up afterwards. Thank you.
The communication and service we got from Sandra in the office was great too. Thank you. She kept us informed re installation dates and especially because of all the wet weather over the last couple of months that had impacted heavily on the installation dates and therefore the changes needed.
Overall, a lovely company to deal with and the service was great and the end product and outcome are terrific.
Thank you.

We were nervous whether these would work as we (vaguely) remembered from over 20 years ago. Well, we’re delighted. It was a darkish day with shadow over most of our roof when you finished installation but the next day – fine and with morning sun – showed them in their full brilliance.

We had three installed last week. The whole process including communication and install was exceptional. Our home was dark and to be honest we were keen to move on to a lighter brighter place, but for a fraction of the price of moving we put these in and OMG the difference is amazing. We had a unit with a light in the kitchen and two normal ones in the hall and we are so so happy. Thanks to Leigh-ann and Tim for your communication and professionalism!
