The Solar Guys was founded by John & Marilyn Teel in 2001 in response to the rapid demand for quality, innovative natural day lighting products, and Solatube was the obvious choice. Since 2001 The Solar Guys has grown from a small home based company to largest Solatube dealer in the United States. Our territory originally included Alachua, Marion, Citrus, Lake and Sumter counties. In 2010 The Solar Guys acquired the Orlando market as part of our service area. This included Volusia, Flagler, Seminole, Orange and Osceola counties. In 2012, The Solar Guys acquired exclusive marketing rights for the sale and installation of Huper Optik window film in Marion, Lake, and Sumter counties. In 2014 The Solar Guys started our insulation division initially offering water heater wraps and garage door insulation. This quickly grew to whole house radiant barrier and blown-in attic insulation. In 2015 Chris Teel acquired minority ownership once again reaffirming our belief of keeping the “family” in family business. Chris currently qualifies The Solar Guys with a Florida Certified Building Contractor License (CBC1260615), Certified Roofing Contractor License (CCC1330841), & Certified Solar License (CVC57042).

Todd Orie, the owner of A Certified Screen Service, Inc. began his career in the aluminum industry at the age of 14, when he began working at his father's aluminum company in Orlando. While working for his father, Todd gained first hand knowledge of the aluminum industry and installation of all home improvement products that the company carried. Todd became a State Certified Building Contractor in 1987. In 1990 Todd decided to start his own aluminum contracting company. Later the company was expanded to include service to service their customers on the East Coast, with the opening of a 3200 square foot sale and service facility in Port Orange. His wife JoEllen, of over 20 years started an active role in the accounting department in 1995. In 2003 they completed the 3 year building project of A Certified Screen Service located at 560 S. Yonge St in Ormond Beach. The company is presently serving contractors and homeowners in Volusia, Flagler, St. Johns County and relocated loyal homeowners in Ocean Reef, Key Largo, Florida. Service area covered: Volusia County, New Smyrna Beach, Flagler County & Key Largo

"They were excellent. When I first called, Tiara told me up front that they had about a 10 week lead time. I said ok, and she had a guy out in 2 days to measure. He was very professional and went over the different types of screen and how they could fix the gutter. We got a quote which was in line with the screen calculators I found on the net. I asked if they could do it any sooner because 2 of the screens were damaged and no matter how hard I tried, one if my cats managed to find a way out at night. So Tiara said she'd move us up if she could. Yeah! 3 weeks later Ricky and Sean showed up. They went above and beyond. Our lanai was a mess. I had put up this temporary fencing and wired it up to keep the cat in. And it hadn't been power washed in an age. It had all this black mold. They took everything down, cleaned everything til it was bright white, put 2 splices in the gutters, cleaned the pad, rescreened, and cleaned up after themselves. It took 2 days and they really worked hard. It is so nice to be able to use my lanai again. I would use them again in a heartbeat. Thanks A-Certified! ??"

Insulation questions, answered by experts

Yes, professionals install and upgrade insulation for all home or business areas.

To keep cold out, look for treatments that sit close to the window frame and are made from thick, insulating materials. Thermal curtains, cellular shades, window quilts, and insulated shutters can all help retain heat. Layering window treatments, like pairing lined curtains with cellular shades, can provide even better insulation by further reducing drafts and heat transfer.

It is usually possible to install insulation yourself, but it’s often better to hire an insulation professional. An experienced insulation pro can determine which type of insulation is best for your space and the R-value get the most value and comfort in your home. Certain types of insulation can cause skin, eye, and lung irritation, and a professional will have the equipment necessary to keep themselves safe and limit the effect on your indoor air quality after the installation. Certain types of insulation—like blown-in and loose-fill insulation—demand a professional for proper functionality and safe installation.

Plaster itself has a higher R-value than drywall. However, there are other considerations surrounding plaster and insulation. As a general rule, it's easier to obtain consistency in insulating value and quality when working with drywall rather than plaster. Plaster walls often don't contain any insulation behind the wall covering by design, and careful evaluation is necessary when choosing to add it.

Because of the moisture concern, open-cell foam requires a vapor barrier. The barrier protects against high humidity and moisture exposure in rooms such as basements, bathrooms, or exterior walls. It wouldn't be necessary in dry interior spaces.
