MA's BEST CHOICE FOR YOUR SKYLIGHT AND ROOFING PROJECTS
Proudly Serving all of MASSACHUSETTS and New England!
Synergy Skylights and Roofing was founded by Laureyn Furtney and Nick Belland to provide a reliable, honest, and seamless customer journey. With Nick’s background as a licensed construction supervisor and contractor, and Laureyn’s vast product knowledge and customer oriented sales method, they saw an opportunity to provide a better, more synergistic experience for customers looking to replace existing skylights or replace their existing roofing system. By remaining specialized in roofing and skylights only, they have been able to hone their craft and give their customers the individual attention each project deserves.
