"I love this company! Garrett came to my home and assessed how efficient our current insulation, etc was. He was very informative and friendly — explained what we needed and how they could help. At the time, I decided to hold off and he never pushed the sale. When I was ready, he was quick to accommodate my schedule. His team: Angel, Luis, Tommy and TJ were great! They arrived early, were professional, courteous, kind, very helpful with my questions and were above and beyond to help fix things that I wasn’t even aware of. They also were more than happy to help with small problems that I had no idea how to fix. They worked quickly and cleaned up afterwards. You could tell they cared about their work which makes me feel confident that the job was done right. They were also fun to have around — my Great Dane loved them too! Garrett and Dave checked in with me during and afterwards to make sure things were going well and if I had any questions. I highly recommend Eagle Shield."
"Did the whole thing in two-three days. Two days for the duct work, and after they finished, an separate contractor came in, and blow in the extra insulation in the attic."
"absolutely phenomenal!!! They were so patient with all of my questions, and I had a lot of questions as a new homeowner. They were always prompt, professional, and most of all friendly. The bid was much lower than I had expected for removal and reinstalling insulation. I am thrilled with the service and price!"
"We wont know the value of this insulation job for a few months so that is reason for this rating. The sales rep was very personable and the installer was extremely efficient. We are hoping to see a reduction in our heat/air bill."
My wife and I did a thorough search in getting the best A/C Contractor in the Sacramento area. The search included Angie?s List, Better Business Bureau, California State Contractor?s License reviews, personal recommendations from neighbors and friends. After all our searching we ended up going with Diamond Heating and Air. We signed the contract with Bob Weatherford who is also the owner of Diamond Heating & Air.
Both my wife and I were especially impressed with Bob?s thoroughness in explaining the type of system we really needed, the SEER rating of the equipment, and the best way of replacing the existing outdated heating and cooling system, inadequate insulation, and faulty duct installation. These were all good suggestions in transforming our home into a more energy efficient and comfortable environment. Also, it was pointed out that some of the existing ducts became loose and disconnected. Fiberglass insulation was blowing into one of the rooms. The outdated ducts were installed many years ago, and were poorly installed, wasting lots of energy, and the duct work was hanging too low below the floor joists.
Bob suggested that the new duct system be relocated and strapped contiguous to the floor joists which would allow us to walk underneath the house so we could better utilize the space for movement and storage. Another big task involved the installation of new attic insulation. This was a big job that required the knowledge that Bob has as being a Licensed Building Contractor.
Again, the thing I appreciated the most was Bob?s honesty and the effort he made to make things right. Bob and Elaine worked hard to qualify us for the SMUD low interest rate financing and qualify us for the rebates that SMUD and PG&E were offering. This helped us tremendously in bringing down the costs of the project. My wife and I are extremely happy that our home now has an excellent home energy assessment from SMUD and PG&E. We expect that our annual electric savings will be significant. We are very happy to recommend Diamond Heating & Air to our family and friends.
I had water damage in my garage from a leaking toilet and the drywall and insulation had been removed by another vendor. I needed to replace the drywall to the original specifications. I called 5 contractors from Angie's List and got proposals from 3 contractors.
We decided to go with Ciro Mejia for the following reasons:
1. Ciro called me back 30 minutes after I left him a voice message and I was able to schedule him to see my garage the next day. The other contractors were not as responsive to me.
2. When we met with Ciro he was able to immediately access the scope of work and gave us a verbal proposal and he emailed me a written proposal when he said he get it to me. I liked his responsiveness.
3. When another contractor suggested using mold resistant drywall, I called Ciro back and he said he would use mold resistant drywall for the same price he initially proposed.
4. We liked Ciro when we initially met with him, he was on time and we could tell that he knew about drywall.
5. His proposal was the lowest of the 3 proposals we received.
Overall, we thought that the quality of the work performed by Ciro's crew (Cireo, Elmer, Roberto and Benny) was excellent. They arrived on time and finished the installation of the drywall and plastering in 1 day. After the plaster dried for 1 day, the painter came by the following day and put primer and paint on the drywall that matched perfectly the rest of the garage.
We would definitely recommend Ciro and his crew. Ciro is the "King of Drywall"!!
If your Sacramento home experiences uneven temperatures, persistent drafts, or high energy bills during summer, it’s likely a strong candidate for insulation service projects. Homes built before energy codes were updated, especially those with uninsulated attics or older windows, often benefit most.

Sacramento’s hot, dry summers and cool, wet winters make insulation service projects essential for year-round comfort and energy efficiency. Insufficient insulation can lead to high cooling costs and uncomfortable temperature swings. Scheduling insulation service projects in the fall or spring helps avoid extreme weather, allowing for easier installation and better performance before peak heat or rainy conditions arrive.

For insulation service projects in Sacramento, blown-in cellulose and fiberglass batts are effective for attics, while spray foam excels at sealing gaps in walls and crawl spaces. Rigid foam boards are ideal for foundations, especially with the region’s clay soil.
