About us

What does a picture of a fleet of installation vans tell you about a company?

It proves we are really in business. It demonstrates that we provide our installation teams with the resources they need to safely do the work you have hired us to do. I hope it displays our commitment to being the best at what we do and the pride we all have in our company, showing everyone who we are and what we do.

All of our installers and their assistants are VELUX trained and certified.

You see we know that our customers can only be satisfied if we do our job correctly. By spending time teaching our installers the correct methods of installation, by paying them a significantly better wage than our competitors, and by sharing the profits our company earns with all employees, we can assure you that our people are the best in the business. They care, that says it all, but look at our reviews if you need more proof.

We stand behind our products and our installations.

VELUX offers a ten-year warranty on their skylights; we match that so you never have to worry about who’s covering what. And we try never to let our profit conflict with customer satisfaction. Sure, we get taken advantage of once in a while, but we learned long ago that when you take care of your customers your presence will grow and so will your profits. And without profit no company can survive to honor their commitments.

Our pricing is fair, consistent and adequate.

What does that mean? It means that we are not trying to be the lowest cost skylight installation firm out there. It means that our pricing metrics attempt to ensure a fair profit on each job. If we overprice a job, or it turns out to be more efficient than we estimated, we refund the difference. What company do you know does that?

There is always going to be someone willing to work for less, that is not what we’re about. Usually our competition cannot offer the quality or level of workmanship we deliver, nor can they match our knowledge and experience. You would not believe what we get called out to fix. So when you compare our pricing to others, understand what you’re getting and realize that Houseworks is delivering quality and peace of mind. We’ll do the job right with the correct skylight and you will have been told of your options and settled on the correct product.

We are honored to announce that Houseworks Daylighting Solutions has been named a Signature Skylight Specialist by VELUX. We are also the Midwest’s oldest and most experienced Skylight dealer. Established in 2001, Houseworks has grown to service large areas of both Illinois and Iowa. No one sells or installs more VELUX skylights, Sun Tunnels™, and Solar Attic Fans in Illinois and Iowa than Houseworks.

We are proud of our Better Business Bureau Accreditation and carry the highest “A+” rating. We have also been awarded the BBB “Complaint-Free” Award for each of the last nine years; an accomplishment few have achieved. We opened our doors in 2001 and have literally thousands of very satisfied customers. Please call us for references and pricing.

Solar powered venting skylight

★★★★★
Houseworks replaced an existing non-venting skylight with a solar powered venting skylight. Everyone was very professional and friendly from sales to installation. They did not leave any mess at all. They explained all the features of the skylight and how to use it. We are very happy with our new skylight. I highly recommend them.

We love our new skylights

★★★★★
I just wanted to drop a Thank You to your team for the excellent service you provide your customers. We ordered and received two solar skylights and the whole process was so smooth, from Mark (our estimator), the installers and Houseworks. We love our new skylights and already received our rebates. Good customer service is not something I take for granted as it is hard to come by these days. Thanks

Replacing an old attic fan

★★★★★
The 18 year old skylight in my master bathroom had become cloudy and streaked. I sought an installer and learned about Houseworks Daylighting Solutions from Angies list. Their salesman/estimator helped me decide on the model and style of skylight I needed. Additionally, I was interested in replacing an old attic fan. They had a solar-powered attic fan which interested me. Both items were installed today in about 4 hours and am happy with the finished products. I had had a prior estimate from a Roofer, for the same work, which would have been less expensive. I chose to go with Houseworks because of the high quality and reputation of the specific skylight they offered (Velux) and its long warranty (20 Yrs). Only Houseworks offered a solar attic fan.

Houseworks has been working with Weather By Request to help us accurately schedule skylight installations. By employing an experienced, professional meteorologist we can make better decisions regarding weather. Obviously protecting our customer’s property is important, but so is expediting installations on days others don't work because they rely on generic forecasts. Our weatherman tailors his forecasts to areas we are working to increase our efficiency and make our scheduling more reliable.
