Natural Light Can Change the Way Your Home Feels

Many Auckland homes have areas that don’t get much natural light during the day. Hallways, bathrooms, kitchens and internal living spaces often rely on artificial lighting, even when the sun is shining outside.

Solatube skylights offer a practical 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. The light is diffused throughout the room, creating a bright, comfortable space without the glare or excess heat often associated with traditional skylights.

Across the North Shore, West Auckland and Rodney, Simon Ellender has helped homeowners transform darker areas with natural daylight solutions designed specifically for Auckland homes.

What Our Customers Are Saying

I found the whole process very easy. Simon came out and discussed the best options for over an hour, explaining the product thoroughly as I had no idea how the system worked.

Everything was done in a very professional manner and the timeframe was adhered to. I would highly recommend your service to others.

Bernadette McPhatter, Titirangi

Simon was very helpful and efficient, and we absolutely love our Solatube. We wish we had done it years ago. It's a pleasure to walk out in the mornings and not have a dark hole to look into. We especially love that it is square, which fits in with our ceiling.

Elaine Walls, Stanley Point

My Solatube and fan are SO fantastic and have made such a difference in my bathroom (which doesn’t have any windows)! I don’t have to turn the lights on when I’m putting on my makeup in the morning anymore. Even in the middle of the night there is enough light.

Christine Speight, Oteha

What a fabulous invention — a really good amount of light is now available. In fact, I still have occasions where I think I need to turn the light off! Very good installers too. I thoroughly recommend Simon.

Catherine Perry, Pāremoremo
