Skylight Shades in Toronto & the GTA
Skylight shades are cellular (honeycomb) shades built on side tracks so they hold flat on overhead and angled glass. They cut summer heat, glare and UV fading, help keep winter heat in, and can darken a bedroom skylight. Because skylights are hard to reach, most clients choose a motorized or telescoping-pole operation.

How skylight shades are quoted
Every window is different, so we don't publish one-size-fits-all prices. Your quote depends on window size, fabric or material, operation (cordless, chain or motorized) and mount. After a free in-home measure, you get a clear written quote per window — before tax, with no inflated "sale" pricing.

Can you cover a skylight that's out of reach?
Yes. We usually recommend a motorized skylight shade with a remote or app, or a telescoping pole for manual operation.
Will a skylight shade block heat?
Cellular skylight shades reduce heat gain and glare noticeably. A blackout fabric blocks the most light and heat.
