"If you're looking for an A-player insulation contractor, I would recommend looking elsewhere. 
The energy consultant arrived on time and was friendly.   The estimate process was somewhat of a joke.   Basically, whatever I pointed to and said I'm interested in having something done, his response was "yeah we can do that" and then quoted some #'s from his head.   Really didn't take any time to look at anything in depth.  Didn't even go in the crawlspace to really see the extent of what needed to be done.   This compares to another company that came out and did blower-door test and used infrared thermometer equipment to check for heat loss (no charge).
The energy consultant said he would follow up with a quote via email.   I received nothing and checked junk mail folders.   I emailed for follow-up on my own and was told I would be contacted by a specialist. 
Specialist called and wanted to give me the hard sell on how they really wanted to stop by when my wife would be home.   I work in high-tech sales so I understand why they want to do this.  However, it's a huge red flag to me and exposes how they conduct their business, which is not how I conduct business.

Energy Efficiency Auditing questions, answered by experts

To find a reputable home energy auditor, start by researching local companies that offer the service and check their reviews, methods, and certifications. The most reputable professionals are often Home Energy Professional (HEP)-certified by the Building Performance Institute (BPI). You can also consult the Department of Energy’s certified list of energy auditors or use a state licensing tool to review local guidelines and ensure you are hiring a certified professional for your area.

If you have central air conditioning, it’s fine to run your AC all day if that’s what you want—as long as the AC unit is in good condition. But if your AC runs constantly when you don’t want it to, there may be a problem with your system (like the ones we’ve mentioned above). Window AC units and wall air conditioners aren’t as powerful as central AC, so you should only run those kinds of air conditioners for eight to 12 hours at a time.

Upgrade to double-glazed glass or apply energy-efficient coatings to reduce heat loss and utility costs.

Wood windows fall in the middle of the window frame materials when it comes to energy efficiency. They’re more insulating than aluminum and vinyl, but they aren’t as efficient as fiberglass or composite frames. If you love the look and lifespan of wood windows and want to maximize efficiency, you can upgrade to double-pane or triple-pane glass and consider window tinting and low-emissivity (low-E) coatings to minimize heat transfer.

Blower door tests are measured in a few different ways, but the most popular are air changes per hour (ACH) and cubic feet of air (CFM) moving through the house per hour. A good ACH score is less than 2ACH, but 1ACH is better. This means the house experiences a total air change within 60 minutes (for 1ACH). For 2ACH, there’s a complete change every 30 minutes, and so on. CFM scores are similar in that a lower score means less air change, and therefore less leakage.
