Owner Gary
Weston got started in 1977 as a general
contractor specializing in room additions. At
one point Gary did a large addition. Upon
completion of the job, the owner was
very pleased with the addition but was
disappointed at the loss of light in
their living room caused by the addition. It
was very dark. Asked for a solution,
Gary suggested "have a couple of
holes cut in the roof."
Skylights were installed and the improvement
was significant.
During an open house to showcase the
new-and-improved room, the addition
was appreciated but the skylights got
most of the attention.
Gary's concluded that the skylight
market was wide open and he decided
to specialize in this market.
Word of mouth jump-started his career
in skylights. (Skylights by Weston)
In 1991 the tubular product became
popular. Gary's answer to round
tubular skylights was the innovative
SQUARE-FLEX Tubular skylight.
Since 1998 Skylights Unlimited Inc
has been manufacturing the SQUARE-FLEX
Skylight Tube. The tube is sold
directly to consumers, with installation
included, and wholesale to the
trade. The reaction to this new
product has been phenomenal.
According to owner, Gary Weston, "Skeptics
have ended up with as many as nine
Square-Flex tubes once they see the
remarkable effect they have on interior
space."
