The team that performed the job included one of his son and they were all very courteous, professional and clean-up after the job was performed.
This is a great company to work with and Bob Bird is always very responsive and he made sure that we were happy with the work.
look through the entire house. After a brief time, he came back and asked if the house had cold spots. I indicated the
house was drafty and he recommended cellulose insulation to make the house more comfortable.
The company had good reviews on Kudzu, so I authorized the company to install cellulose insulation, additional ducts and
drywall the bonus room. The crew was professional and punctual.
Outcome:
1. The comfort level of the home did not improve. Everyone commented that the house still felt very drafty. I contacted the
company to inform them of the situation, but was told that comfort was "subjective" which I found odd since that was the same metric used during the quote process.
I subsequently hired an energy audit company to do an analysis of my home which revealed extensive leaks around windows, doors and baseboards which account for the draftiness. I wished I had an audit first then I would have quantitative information to drive my decisions on improving my home comfort and how to best spend my limited financial resources. For now, I'll have
to continue cranking up thermostat.
2. The drywall installation was of very poor quality. The walls are not smooth and numerous "nail pops" and cracks have developed. I will have to demo the existing drywall and have it done over
again.
Overall, these were not the results I expected, especially having seen all the positive reviews about the company on Kudzu.
I particularly was disappointed the company did not at least come by to take a look at my concerns.
Overall the project ended up with a great result. The biggest complaints we had were not knowing what the insulation would look like and the cleanup afterwards for which the crew didn't follow typical protocol. The owner himself and the crew manager came out personally after the job to address our concerns. They did not make excuses and took full accountability for not performing proper prep and cleanup of the space during the job. They would not except payment until we were completely satisfied. They came out and finished the job to our complete satisfaction. They even moved some boarding that was in our attic space over to a smaller attic space and secured it down for flooring at no extra charge. We didn't realize that the cellulose insulation would look "dirty" since it's brown in color. As the result of our project, they have performed re-training for cleanup purposes and are planning to create a catalog of pictures to show customers what the finished job will look like. It was a win-win because they really listened to our concerns and are taking measures to make sure it won't happen in the future. In addition, we really learned a lot from them about insulation and energy efficiency. They really know what they're doing and we will definitely use them again in the future.
They were very courteous and they did a very good and clean job. Just reading about them online and looking at the reviews on angie's list made me decide on them.
