We had a leaking and old skylight. Ford and Sons was the most professional, prompt, knowledgable of all three companies we got estimates from. They have a great online estimate and invoice system that is clear, and much faster than doing everything by mail. The service was very prompt which was great as water was dripping into our family room when it rained or snowed. We love the new skylights, they are clean, let in great light, so quiet, and I'm sure they will be much better for our heating and air systems as well. Thank you!
