"I was impressed with the work. The insulation was done everything was explained pictures were shown to. Us. The men who were here were new. What they were doing."
"I hired Brandon in March 2019 to do the contracting for a complete kitchen remodel on my 1960’s era home. The job included a complete rewire of the kitchen/dining room, moving plumbing, adding insulation and new drywall, tearing out the floors down to the subfloor, new French doors, the list goes on. All of his subcontractors did excellent work and I am beyond happy with the job they did. Brandon did an even better job of keeping everything on budget. When I get ready to redo the bathrooms I’ll be calling Wilson Home Services again."
"We needed repair/replace the insulation under our house. They came, gave an estimate and did the work. Replaced the moisture barrier, cleaned up. We are very pleased."
"Luke was a very personable person, gave me an estimate and that was what I paidâ ¦..No hidden cost or add ons . He was on time and left everything cleaner than he found it! I would recommend Cool Hand Insulation to anyone needing insulation."
"There's no better expert in insulation than someone who has lived in Alaska and did it up there where it's -40. I know it doesn't get that cold here in NWA but if he can insulate homes up there?! Yeah, just talk to Charles for half a second and you'll see he knows more about your insulation needs than anyone else. He sprays perfectly even so there isn't waves, it's all even so the temp stays perfect. He's got all the pictures to show you. If you want some amature insulation don't go here, if you want the absolute best? This is it."

"Would rate very good to excellent. . Personable, professional, punctual. Carpet, furniture, doors, windows and trim well protected before any work was started. Perhaps could have had less drywall damage with wallpaper removal in half of room. Wall surface repaired, primed, prepped for painting including sanding and painted.. ."
"I initially contacted three separate companies about solar panel installation. Solergy is the only one who seemed interested in my business and called me back right away to schedule a consultation. Roderick, the Sales Rep, was able to set up an appointment for the following day. When he arrived, he was very professional and courteous. He explained thoroughly the benefits of having solar panels, the type of superior quality solar panels they install (with individual micro-inverters for each panel) (all with a 25-year warranty), the cost, rebates, and tax incentives involved, and the typical installation process... from local permitting (including submissions to our local HOA), to the physical installation of the panels. By the time he left, I felt my wife and I had all the information we needed to make a decision on how we were going to proceed. Our biggest debate was how big a system we wanted to put on our roof, but Roderick was patient with us while we discussed our options. We felt no pressure to rush things. He gave us the time we needed to make the best decision for our needs and intended purpose for the system. I appreciated that. On the day before installation day, they dropped off the pallets of panels and other hardware. I recommend having an area cleared in your garage or carport for when they drop it off to keep the items secure and the boxes from getting wet and soggy if it happens to rain in your area overnight. They worked quickly and efficiently on installation day, and had the complete system installed on my house in one full day. They got there at 7:30 in the morning, and they were done by 4-5 p.m. that afternoon. The crew was friendly and courteous, and answered all my questions about the installation as the day progressed. I was happy and satisfied with the installation, and it looked professionally done. A day or so later, they provided a system monitoring app I could use to monitor the health of my system, showing information from each individual panel, an overview, and a really cool feature, where you put in the price you’re currently paying (per kilowatt hour) for energy, and it will tell you the equivalent amount you are saving by having the system installed. All real-time information. I think it’s pretty cool. Overall, I think they did an excellent job, from the first inquiry to the follow-up visit and calls during and after the installation. I would and will be recommending them to all my local family, friends, and neighbors. If you like this review, let them know that Don Jones in Haslet, Texas sent you. (When you purchase your system through them, they have a top-notch referral program, too!)"
The best type of attic insulation depends on where you live, your budget, and what stage of construction the attic is in. For example, if you're building a house, then structural insulated panels are a worthy investment since they're easy to install during construction and they're the most energy-efficient type of insulation.
Additionally, if you live in a very warm climate, then you can potentially save quite a bit of money by opting for reflective insulation, which is more affordable than comprehensive insulation but doesn't work well for cool climates. Blown-in, loose-fill, and spray foam insulation are all great options for attics in moderate climates.
R-value stands for resistance value and is a number assigned to insulation that states how good the insulation is at heat transference (insulation). The R-value of injection foam is around 4 which homeowners will be happy to know is actually quite good. Another benefit of injection foam versus fiberglass foam is that the colder it gets, the more injection foam retains its resistance properties, whereas fiberglass tends to lose its efficiency in colder temperatures.
Depending on the size, insulation condition, and removal method, it can take anywhere from four hours up to twenty hours. Therefore, be prepared to split the projects into phases, or leave it to a professional. Insulation is an intermediate project with various risk factors and can be challenging to someone unfamiliar with the process.
You should not use spray foam insulation in several specific areas. Avoid applying it in spaces exposed to high temperatures, such as near electrical boxes or recessed lighting, unless the foam is specifically rated for such use. Applying foam near electrical boxes can damage the wiring, and using it too close to lightboxes or recessed lights creates a potential fire hazard. Additionally, do not use spray foam in areas prone to shifting or movement, as this can lead to cracks and gaps in the insulation. Finally, open-cell foam is unsuitable for use below ground or in areas exposed to moisture because it can absorb water, which compromises its insulating effectiveness.
If you feel your energy bills are too high or your HVAC system is working harder than necessary to maintain the correct temperature in your home, you may have an under-insulated home. If you’re unsure, consider having your system’s efficiency assessed by a local independent energy auditor.
