"Insul-Kings is wonderful to work with. They called in the morning to narrow the arrival time, which is very considerate. Nate and his crew arrived on time and CRANKED like a well oiled machine. I have a 4' crawl space. You can barely crouch. No problem! That's why God invented knee pads. They foamed and installed the insulation like it was their own home. It was a work of art. and came out better than I imagined. They patiently indulged my "old man" inquisitiveness. The crew represented Insul-Kings very well. I highly recommend them. This was done through the Mass Save program. So the $2100 job only cost me about $500.00"

"I was plagued with recurring ice dams in a few areas of my roof. After investigation, it was discovered that the insulation in a few visible areas was sub-par. Roland came in and quickly spotted the problem areas. He assured me that the could fix these problems immediately. He used a combination of rearranging existing batts, blown-in fiberglass and spray foam to seal the attic space, over the course of two visits. He's extremely personable and always called me back or answered the phone right away."

"United did a great job with finishing our basement.  We worked mostly with Junior (the project manager).  He met with us to go over what we were looking for and gave us a quote for 25,000 which was a great price and about the price range we was looking for.  We ended up adding more things we wanted later that were not included in the quote which pushed the price up, but we were always comfortable with the price and there were no hidden costs or anything like that.   We ended up adding a floor instead of painted concrete, we upgraded the electrical work (more lights added, LED lights. baseboard heat), added insulation, re-did the steps going down to the basement and a few other things.  
We ended up spending around 50,000 with all the extras and cost for materials etc. Junior was great with working with us and getting us quotes for any extra things we wanted to add. He was also very responsive.  Any questions or concerns we had he would answer promptly.  It took about 4 months for the entire project to be done, which was longer than we wanted or expected but to be fair we never gave them a hard date to when it needed to be done by.  They started off super fast and got alot done in a short amount of time, but mid way through they started to slow down.  I told Junior about it and they ended the project very fast too.  So as long as your upfront about how quickly you need it done, they will get it done for you.  The actually work was great and the basement looks spectacular.  Any little issues they fixed at the end.  For example, the faucet we installed wasn't flowing properly, I told Junior and he had the plumber come back to fix it (on Columbus day no less!).
We will def use United again in the future if we have any other construction projects."

"Pro Home Services was extremely professional right from the start. Eric came out to give an estimate and was extremely knowledgeable about the work that we wanted done. He explained everything thoroughly, which was reassuring. He also provided homes that they had worked on and references for us so that we could feel good about making the right decision. Eric was easy to contact as were the other workers. Once the contract and deposit were signed, we did notice the urgency of responding to our calls and emails was not there any more. However, we were still pleased with their work. We were told the project would start on a Monday but it was the week of the hurricane. We weren't contacted at all that week, even though we understood that they would be delayed. After waiting to hear from them, we called and they told us a new date that they would start, which they followed through with. From the beginning, we kept saying that we wanted the house to look exactly like it had originally but newer. After we came home on the first day of the siding being put up, the width was larger than it had looked originally. This was very frustrating since we kept saying we wanted it to be the same as it had been. Eric explained that the width of the original siding was different in different places so he rounded up to the 5 inch boards. I wish he has clearly stated this to me since I had just assumed that what he wrote in the contract would match what the original siding had looked like. We grew to love the look (especially since we had no money to fix it :) Overall, the worker(s) arrived early each day and cleaned up each evening. They were very helpful when we had questions and the final product looks amazing! They had promised to paint the PVC trim where it didn't match the hardie trim color, which they couldn't do since the project had gotten pushed back and it was too cold. This was unfortunate since they had said they would do the downspouts too but there wasn't anything we could do about the weather. When we had issues come up about the project, they listened and fixed it. They did work above and beyond what other contractors had offered to do. All of our windows got new flashing, we got our porch roof replaced, and they cleaned up some insulation that was sticking out of our attic windows. They even left the dumpster for us to use when they were done. We definitely plan to use them in the future if we need to! You won't go wrong if you choose Pro Home!"

This is probably not your roof:
But, if your roof has damaged flashing, missing shingles, curling, blistering, buckling, rotting and algae growth (which appears as dark or greenish stains), you probably need a new roof.
If you’re roofer doesn’t talk about these, you’re talking to the wrong guy:

"The technician who came was a pleasant, competent professional who examined the unfinished attic to evaluateit w/r/t insulation only or insulation as part of a full finishing of the space. He took measurements and scratched out some information on his pad.. I told him that I intended to review my options before any decision. I offered payment at that time and he told me there was no charge for this service. It struck me as odd that he told me that what I had agreed to pay $19.00 for was actually free but I asumed billing would accompany an actual report/proposal. A month on I've never seen anything like a report although I have been charged via credit card for the inspection service. Perhaps the report-recommendation is still on its way? PLEASE NOTE THAT THIS REVIEW FORM REQUIRES A YES/NO HIRE AGAIN RESPONSE. I WOULD HAVE PREFERRED TO ANSWER UNDECIDED."

"Roberto was the technician and he was very professional, polite, and personable. He inspected the rest of our system and told us things that needed to be changed or repaired. He showed me pictures of everything. Everything he told me about was accurate. He quoted me a price for R38 insulation , Some of our ducts were plastic and he recommended them to be changed. I agreed completely and didn't know they were plastic. I would have had them done the work but I had no price comparisons to make and besides I didn't have the money right then. So he just finished the vent cleaning and left his card. He did a great job on the vent cleaning and was happy with the work."

"CSA subed the electrical, HVAC, plastering plumbing and painting and did the repair work on the kitchen floor, lock replacement, vent installation, refinishing and some wall and ceiling prep for the painters.  The experience and knowledge possessed by the former owner Brad Sterns completely reshaped the project much for the better and we would hire them again just for his expertise.  We are very pleased with the result, except for the quality of the painting work.  The overall quality of their work was very good; but they had trouble properly staffing and overseeing the subs so that some of the sub work was below par and the contract work,which should have be finished by the end of June wasn't completeuntil the first week in September and cost us a lot of grief as well as extra money staying in hotels while the painting was finished.  The subcontractors were on the whole excellent except for the painters who were terrible, did not properly prep the walls properly and got paint on the woodwork and furniture.  The painters wanted extra for washing two walls; but painted over cobwebs and dust on the others.  Nothing was sanded on the walls.  The HVAC sub did an excellent job installing the new gas heating and air conditioning; but inadvertently left a drain pipe too short and got some condensate water into the newly insulated walls.  When told about the problem, rad Sterns fixed it right away - hopefully no damage was done in the 3 weeks the problem went unnoticed.

Insulation questions, answered by experts

High humidity, bad insulation, warmth from sunlight, and poor circulation are all reasons your home’s hotter inside than out. While this is what you want in the colder months, summer can become unbearable if this is a constant. Try to find the cause, but you need to remember that issues like this require a permanent fix (unless you want to bear down during the summer months).

A garage ceiling needs a vapor barrier if it’s a heated garage or if you’re installing insulation in the ceiling. Without a vapor barrier, you risk moisture issues and mold growth. If you have an unheated garage and don’t plan on installing insulation that could get wet and harbor mold, the ceiling doesn't need a vapor barrier.

While fiberglass is dangerous to work with, it’s a perfectly safe material once it’s installed. If you’re tackling the installation yourself, make sure you take the proper safety precautions and wear the right gear to avoid skin and eye irritation and lung complications. Working with a professional insulation company can mitigate these risks.

You do not always need to remove old insulation before adding new. If the existing insulation is in good condition—not wet, physically damaged, moldy, or infested with pests—you can add new insulation directly on top of it for a compounding effect. You can also mix different types, such as adding blown-in insulation around existing fiberglass batts.

However, removal is recommended if the old insulation is compromised by water damage or pests. You should also remove it if you plan to install a different type of insulation, like switching from roll or batt insulation to spray foam. If the existing insulation is very old or damaged, you will likely get more benefit from removing it and starting fresh.

Expect your home insulation project to take between five and 12 hours to complete on average for batts or boards and two to five hours for spray foam or blown-in insulation. It might take longer if you need to remove your home’s existing insulation, you have a higher-than-average square footage, or accessibility is limited.
