Very reasonable price for 40 hours of skilled labor, especially due to a significant government-mandated credit from the utility companies. Good quality work and professionalism. A couple areas of initial concern were quickly and completely addressed when brought to their attention. The monitoring equipment used showed a 40% efficiency improvement which should cost-justify this project within 6 months.

This was an excellent use of time and money. I have some peculiar attic issues and he diagnosed them perfectly and gave me a very reasonable quote to fix them. The main thing is that he understood the problem - most HVAC people have no clue. Once things get a little warmer I will contact them about doing the work. I was very satisfied with the service and would highly recommend it. It
Description of Work: This was a classic analysis of heat loss in the house. But my particular interest was more focused - excess heat in the attic. They hooked up the fan to the door to lower pressure in the house and then found all the leaks. They also used an infrared camera to show the heat losses pictorially. Very quick and thorough.

Andrei and team were very good to work with. Both Andrei and Dimitrei spent the extra time to walk me through every step of the analysis and the insulation project. We identified a significant lack of insulation over one bedroom and over our kitchen cabinets where we had been having temperature problems. They were able to get insulation into these very hard to reach area's and we noticed an immediate difference the next week when the temperature dropped into the 30's and the wind was blowing hard. Overall, very good to work with and did a good job of cleaning up.
Description of Work: Performed Energy Audit and identified several area's that were in need of air sealing and insulation. Included a whole home thermal camera scan and provided the pictures along with the recommendations in a report. Provided a proposal. Services provided: 1. Whole home blower door testing to identify and quantify unwanted air infiltration through windows, doors, attics, crawlspace, hvac duct work and electrical outlets 2. Analysis of current insulation & thermal envelope 3. Health and safety checks for asbestos and mold 4. Detect pest & rodent nests None detected at the time of inspection 5. Detect water leaks and their origin - walls, flooring, roof, moisture that cannot be physically reached with moisture meters 6. Detect electrical “hot spots” which can cause potential fire hazards 7. Recommendations and prioritization for efficiency improvement measures

These guys were terrific. The thoroughness of the audit made it clear that money was just flowing out of my roof and windows. They did the audit on one of our coldest days of the year (I felt sorry for them) and provided pictures, explanations and a plan to seal up all the leaks. I will be hiring them to execute the plan now that the temperature is tolerable.

It was amazing--Dimitri and his crew were fantastic--cleaned up each day (it took 4 days for them to complete everything). They were punctual and stayed as long as possible each day. I was extremely impressed and would highly recommend this team for your work.
Description of Work: This project began with an energy audit using the blower fan and infrared camera. It confirmed my suspicions of all the leaks but also showed all the interior wall problems. We have an attic that is the full length of our ranch house that we use for storage and had flooring. Andrei looked at it and consulted other experts and said that trying to blow in insulation over the entire area and then trying to restore the storage capabilities would be cost prohibitive. Instead, he added 3 inch dense foam board insulation on top of the floor and then also added another layer of plywood so we could still use it for walking and storage. He also added eaves and blew in insulation in the sides where we had no flooring. His men also boxed in our heating vents and caulked the entire inside of the house (windows, doors and walls)

We called the company in and they came in a timely fashion. He met with my husband. He said the man was gruff but thorough. Then when the estimate came we asked if he could perform not the whole thing - but a simple insulation portion in our daughter's room; he refused. That was a year and a half ago. Since that time I called once more to ask if he would please just do her crawl space. We never got a reply. It was time to write a review for the unfortunate experience and to warn others that this man is looking for a big payback and won't stick to the $500 insulation deal.
Description of Work: We bought a deal ($150 for $500) worth of services and it was throwing money in the toilet. He came in and estimated to insulate the roof and two crawl spaces. He said the work was more than $2000 dollars, which blew us away. We then asked if we could only do the crawl space next to our daughter's room because it gets so cold in there; he said no. It should not be an all or nothing approach. If you put a deal on Angie's List, and we only want one portion of our home done (as a cost saving measure and to keep our kid warm) then you should do it. Now we are out $150 with no insulation to speak of.

Response from Green Attic Insulation
Hi (deleted member name). This is Andrei. I was the one who came out for an estimate at your house. I meet your husband and I remember pretty well everything that followed. I said that by insulating that crawlspace wont actually solve the problem of your daughter's room being so cold. I said it does not make any sense to do it because its gonna be a waste of time and material. Im a professional, you called me for an inspection and recommendations, so then how come you're telling me what I supposed to do? No job is too small, but I cant put my name on a job that wont meet code, wont make any improvements or its not even according to common sense. If I were to do what you think would help, it wouldnt be any good, and then by the end you would blame me for not doing a good job and not realizing that the problem is with what you wanted me to do and not my services So what difference does it make if you wont be satisfied either way? Im not looking for big payback as you said, my prices are really reasonable. You said when you found out the job would be $2000 it blew you away... How is that my fault? If you didnt have any idea of insulation prices, what dont you get couple more estimates? See what other contractors would charge you... Im sure you'll find somebody doing it for $200 with no license, insurance, any certification but dont forget: you get what you paid for. It sucks when you try to help people, give them good advice, really make their homes more comfortable and more efficient and what you get back? Bad reviews because you're honest and dont wanna do bad jobs? Nice. Now last but not the least, when you bought the coupon it clearly said: $149 for $500 Worth of Blown-in Attic Insulation! Only valid for whole home insulation projects and cannot be applied towrd repairs or partial attics... not one word about crawlspace. Even so we did do work for some customers in crawlspace and garage using this coupon, but it really made an improvement for them, it was the right thing to do. In your situation is not. 'Since that time I called once more to ask if he would please just do her crawl space.' that is not true. You sent me an email asking if I can lower my cost or offer a payment plan. I have all our email conversations. The job was $2150 minus the $500 deal, final price was $1650. I said fine Ill make an exception and do it for $1500.00 for you, like anybody else I cant work for free... but again Im a bad guy... Let it be. Wish you best of luck. P.S. 'the man was gruff but thorough' it made me laugh, good one.

Andrei was very friendly and knowledgeable. He did not push any additional insulation services that I did not need (I am not up to government recommended insulation amount and he considered the ROI for me and did not push extra insulation). He found some areas in my house that needed to be addressed. Very happy with Andrei.

We wanted an est. on 2 attics for insulation and an unfinished crawlspace.We live in a split level home so we have two attic areas. The service man peeked his head in the attics and never went in them. He said, "Some areas look good and some don't". Then he said the crawlspace wasn't worth doing anything. We basically spent $250.00 for nothing. He said "If you want to add some insulation to the top attic it would be around $1,500.00". Outrageos price for a small area.We now have discovered ventaltion issues that cause moisture problems. He never said anything about that. He basically came out for his check of $250.00

Response from Green Attic Insulation
Hello Member. I think you wrote us a review by mistake. We offer free estimates and there is no reason for us to charge you $250.00. Usually the estimates we offer are complex in writing (most of the time emailed to the customer with copy of our license, insurance and spec sheet for the material we use) with full description of scope of work. The proposal always includes installation of the bafles for soffit area and a line saying: 'Ventilation to be improved prior to any insulation work to prevent moisture and mold related problems. Installation of roof vents, an attic fan and soffit vents will be sufficient to meet necessary ventilation requirements.' Also how could you blame any contractor who didn't do the job on your attic for moisture and ventilation problem??? I think logically you have to call the company who you chose to do your insulation work for that kind of problem. As far as the crawlspace goes I can see why somebody will suggest that to do the crawlspace is not worth it. You see the crawlspace is the most expensive place to insulate in a house and savings that will come from it are not significant, so insulating the crawlspace you're doing it more for comfort and not for savings, it will take a long long time to pay it off. Hope this helps and you'll rethink your review. Good luck.

Service was superior-see above.
Description of Work: I am very pleased by their work. Green Attic went out of their way to make sure the house was kept clean. They put a barrier in our front door during the installation to prevent cold air from entering and laid down tarps from the door to the attic stairs. I had previously built a platform in my attic for storage and at no extra cost, they raised the platform (a process that took several hours) so that additional insulation could be blown in under the platform. In addition, they actually added more insulation than was called for in the contract. I all areas, they went above and beyond what was expected and what was contracted.

We purchased the "Big Deal" on Angie's List and then talked to the owner of Green Attic. We received an estimate and then scheduled the service date. The team came on time and put rulers throughout the attic to monitor insulation levels. We can clearly see how much insulation was applied. The team was very professional and laid cloths over the carpet to keep it clean. The process took less time than told which was a bonus.
Description of Work: We were very satisfied with the service received. Our concern was that the deal was not really a "Big Deal" when comparing with other companies' charges for this service.
