Installing skylights can be a difficult undertaking. Depending on the slope of your roof and the depth of your house, the lightwells might rise to significant heights above your top floor. Our 2-story house was 36’ deep with an 8/12 roof pitch. For an ideal installation (smooth, reflective lightwell walls), this means using 4’ x 12’ sheetrock panels. For two 2’ x 4’ skylights, you need nearly 270 sq ft of new “wall” – in your attic – and all of it must be insulated consistently (in our case R-30). 270 sqft is the equivalent of an 8’ high wall 34’ long. The level of effort involved and the associated logistics (working up to 20' above the top floor) is almost inconceivable. We asked Velux for certified installers in our area (Reston-Herndon-Sterling) and they gave us 3 names. We were most impressed with Bull Construction (Reston). The owners of the company – Elmar & Shawn – visited our jobsite at least once a day and dealt with all of our concerns. The final result could not have been better or more dramatic. Bull Construction was very punctual and easy to deal with. If you’re thinking about installing skylights, take it from us – get the Bull in your corner! Our family and friends inspected our 2 new skylights at Thanksgiving. Our nephew shook his head and said “that company could build the pyramids”. Yep.

My experience with Bull when my skylight malfunctioned during rain (mercifully, light) was simply extraordinary. Way, way out of the norm. Velux referred me to Bull and, even though I called out of hours, Sean was not just available but extraordinarily helpful, holding my hand as we worked through the possible issues carefully and thoroughly. I couldn't possibly have asked for more. The following morning, Diego showed up as early as I could have wished, went through the possibilities with me again, and we worked out the problem. There is simply no question that in the future, it's Bull I'll call -- for anything at all, major or minor. And call right away.

We are very happy with the Skylight installation performed by Elmar and his crew of professionals. Did an excellent job in a short time . We highly recommend Bull Co. to anyone looking for a solid and reliable Company.
