Sky Renovation and new construction are true professionals in every aspect of work. They recently remodeled our kitchen and we wanted combination of modern and classic look so not simple task but remodeled kitchen looks just as we wished it will look like, even better. We didn't had a single complaint about Sky Renovation team, they were nice, quick and efficient, informed us about working progress all the time and gave us some very important advises. Also the quality of materials they used was highest quality. This contractor deserves highest possible rating, thanks!

I cannot say enough good things about this company - they exceeded my expectations in every way possible! Firstly, the price was incredibly reasonable, especially considering the high quality of work that was done. Communication was also top-notch. But perhaps what impressed me the most was their work ethic. The crew arrived early and worked tirelessly throughout the day to get the job done. They were respectful of my property, leaving everything clean and tidy at the end of each day. And the end result? My roof looks absolutely fantastic! The repairs are solid, and I feel confident that my home is now better protected from future storms. Five stars all around!

I had the pleasure of working with Roger on two projects -- and will definitely be back for more! I had a telephone bench reupholstered. Roger's selection of durable, easy care and beautiful fabric made the decision easy. The precision of the work and comfort of the seat are impeccable. Next I had a different project - adding built in cupboards to add storage space in my dining room but having them blend into the background. The cabinets are hand built with an amazing paint finish. Everything is flush, the hardware works effortlessly and the interior shelves are very sturdy. I couldn't be happier. I should add that sketches were drawn and changes made so it was completely clear how the unit was going to be built.
