"Highly recommend Neil. When we first met he arrived as a worker not a guy in a suit. He arrived when he said he would, he kept me advised of his work. He and his crew re-insulated the underside of my rental module home. He had only a crawl space to work in and I know it was very dirty work. When he found an additional problem he talked to me about it. The estimate he gave for the job was very fair. He is currently working on another estimate for repairing my deck and replacing a sliding glass door. If I could give him 10 stars I would. I am not related to him and never met him until he showed up to work up the estimate. If you need a job done Neil is your guy!!!"
"Horn Insulation did a tremendous job insulating our house. The quality of their work was great and they were a pleasure to work with.
I highly recommend them!"
"We had them come out to give me a price on adding more insulation to 2 sides of our house. And to put new guttering on the 2nd floor . While here they talked us into insulating the attic too. We agreed the attic would be a good job for the guys to do in the winter. We signed papers and gave them a $2500.00 dollar check for the down payment . The salesman Josh said he be in touch with us the next week to see when they could do it. Josh had come out on sat October 7th. Well I tried to send photos of our house to Josh 2 times . So after a week & half I called the office. And ask did he work there?She said yes she would have him call . But no call . So I called office and she gave me there email and I sent pictures to her. I had.questions on the photos, and asked them to call . Ii called in again to see if anything was being done, and secretary said the boss said they were working on a schedule and someone would call me. At this point we are 3 weeks out from our signing and cant get a call from anyone. We are at this point not happy, and figure our $2500.00 is gone. So my daughter called to see if there was a process to get our money back. And I got my 1st. Phone call . 1 day from being 4 weeks of signing. And this guy as nice as he was said we probably won't get it back because we signed a contract. . I have delt with other companies , and any time I sign a contract ( that big ) some always calls to go over it , or to ask if you have questions. But now I don't want them, I'm just going to get someone else .if I can get my money back. If they can't return my calls, why should I think there going to do what I want them to do?.?"
"when we noticed that the insulation in our attic was wet, we called Home Comfort. They came, look at the insulation, confirming it was wet and we had mold in our attic. They removed the wet insulation, put in new insulation after the mold was abated. The also added more vent tiles in the attic and sprayed insulation around the sole plates in our basement."
"Everything was fine until I got the final bill. The estimate they gave was different and the final bill was different. They had put extra charges. When I called them about it, they didn't back down. They also said that because of the extra insulation they used they did they couldn't reduce the cost. Other than that, the job was done fine. At one point, the insulation had blown in, they had a little problem, but that was worked out."
"Neil did the job fantastically and explained what he was doing throughout, always asked for an inspection to make sure it was done to my satisfaction. Pricing was extremely fair and he was timely and quick. Would highly recommend for any insulation work you need done. Can’t speak on the other work he does, but if it’s on par with what he did for me, then you’d be doing well."
"This service went above what was expected. They fixed issues that came up and needed attention without altering the original bid. I will recommend them to anyone needing insulation."
"Well, the first time the replacement was ordered it was the wrong one, which of course, delayed the installation a week. When it was finally installed I had to pay an additional $850 for code upgrades. This I was not informed of by Home Shield. Then we noticed that there was water on the garage floor and found that the pipe coming in from the wall was leaking at the wall so had to call the plumbing company back out to fix it. They first tried to say it was not their fault but since there wasn't a leak before they installed they did fix it. I have used Home Shield a few times before and never had a problem. Some of the companies they use are not the best so you have to research them before you commit. I have found HS service to be good if you do your homework. At the end of the day I was without hot water for almost 3 weeks but it was do to the plumbing company they sent out."
"We had a fantastic experience with Marco and his team. They did insulation work for our attic and the results were excellent. You can really tell he cares about quality and customer service."
Through expert matching of texture and paint for an invisible repair.
You’ll want to inspect your plaster walls for signs of damage before painting. If you notice soft spots, deep cracks, bubbling, or areas where the plaster is crumbling or pulling away from the wall, it likely needs repair. While small hairline cracks are common and likely cosmetic, you should address larger issues before painting to ensure a quality, smooth finish.
Plaster walls typically last between 30 and 70 years, but depending on the quality of the materials and the moisture levels in the building, they can last for over 100 years. With expert application and consistent maintenance, plaster can even last for centuries. To extend its lifespan, it is important to have the plaster professionally installed, address any water damage promptly, and repair small cracks as they appear. Regular inspections by a professional can help identify and address concerning cracks before they become significant issues.
While fumigation chemicals cannot pass through solid objects, they will seep into any openings in walls, doors, or other closed spaces. This allows them to get into tight places where pests may be hiding and causing damage, like termites ruining the foundation of your home. It also means that your home needs to ventilate for 48 hours before returning to ensure that no harmful chemicals remain in your space.
You should not leave drywall outside, especially overnight or in a wet, humid climate. Exposure to rain and humidity can damage the drywall, weakening its structural integrity and making it susceptible to mold growth. If you must leave drywall outside during a project, be sure to cover it with a tarp or keep it inside a storage shed to protect it. Even drywall intended for exterior projects requires a protective moisture barrier. For best results, store any extra drywall in a dry area away from the elements.
