Chuck was very prompt in coming out and giving me a estimate on new ac install in a existing furnace. Prompt delivery and install at a fair price I am very happy with their work. Would highly recommend them for ac work. Returns phone calls promptly. Very pleased.

Rooter guy was super helpful throughout the process. I met Kris Grimes, and he helped me to determine that a tankless water heater just wasn't ideal for my home. Others might have tried to go through with the install and left me to suffer with the poor water heating later on. I will...

The workers were professional, efficient, friendly, and competent. There was no waste of heat which was my concern considering the windows were installed in subzero weather! They definitely knew what they were doing. The workmanship is excellent. They replaced 12 windows.

Called and received a ball park estimate. Called later for a detail estimate for which they did a visit and measured. Both estimates were in agreement. The office did a great job working around a HOA that kept changing the rules. Eventually they were able to do the installation to meet my tough...

Even with bad weather they were able to complete the job is a very satisfactory time period. I can already tell a difference in the temperature of my house, because of the installation they applied under the siding (well worth the extra cost). The neighbors are raving about how nice the house...

Doorbell Installation questions, answered by experts

A moisture or vapor barrier helps separate the warm air inside your home from the cold air outside of it. Without it, your walls could collect condensation, mold, or other damage. Check your local building codes to see if including an interior vapor barrier is necessary for your building project or renovation, especially for rooms that are likely to be humid, like bathrooms.

DIY insulation installation is feasible, particularly for basic rolls or batts, if you have the right protective gear and knowledge. However, hiring a professional ensures even, full coverage for maximum efficiency.

Vapor barriers in attics are a bit outdated and most areas no longer recommend them for attic spaces. For vented attics, the best method is usually to install drywall and cover it with latex paint before attaching insulation fiberglass, cellulose, or foam insulation. When renovating an attic to use as a living space, a contractor can guide you on the best way to cover insulation.

Insulating windows with plastic works, but it can be time-consuming, and the end results can—and often do—end up lacking in aesthetics. Window film and caulking your windows to make sure there are no drafts are two options that increase the energy efficiency of your home in a low-cost way. Plastic can be a good strategy while you consider alternatives.

Insulating windows without plastic is usually the better method. Outside of simply replacing your windows, you could buy cellular shades, which trap air between the window and the home, add a window film that blocks UV rays and traps heat, or cover your windows with a low-emissivity coating called “low-E.”
