Nelson and Tasman

Not Every Room Gets the Natural Light It Should

Even in one of New Zealand’s sunniest regions like Nelson, Tasman and Marlborough, many homes still have areas that don’t get enough natural light. Hallways, bathrooms, kitchens and internal living spaces often rely on artificial lighting, even during the day.

Solatube skylights offer a simple, effective way to bring natural daylight into these spaces.

Using advanced daylighting technology, Solatube captures sunlight at roof level and delivers it evenly into your home, creating a bright, comfortable space while helping manage glare and UV exposure.

Isaac Ibbotson and his team have helped homeowners throughout Nelson, Tasman and Marlborough transform darker areas into spaces that feel lighter, more open and more enjoyable to live in.

Our Solatube makes an incredible difference to what was once a dark and dingy corridor. Isaac was great to deal with, really friendly, and the installation was quick and easy. I would recommend it to anyone looking for a great natural light solution.

Michael Williams, Picton

A great addition to our home. It was installed quickly and efficiently and now brings so much light into what was once a very dark area. We now only use the light at night or on very dull days. A totally awesome product.

It is even better than we hoped. Very quick installation and friendly service. We are very pleased with the results.
