"Person who visited was very polite and noted that what I purchased was likely not something that would meet my expectations. I wanted an energy audit, how my systems could be improved in home, lighting, heating, insulation and air conditioners. What I got was a list of things they could work on and the price to do that work. The work list in no way was considered an energy audit, rather it was a punch list of things I could do based on their visual inspection. I did not have a comparison of work and benefit/savings calculation. There was no checklist of inefficiencies and how that translated into energy losses. For example, multiple hi hat lights in house, they spoke about boxing and insulating a few, less than 10, when I have almost 90 in house. Overall I was disappointed, the tech who came said the offering needed to be better presented prior to start of work."
"We had a horrendous situation with a basement floor installation that went wrong leaving our house full of fumes, and a week later we discovered our basement was contaminated by asbestos in the process. When we called Bill and Contractors Unlimited, they were extremely responsive. Although other companies gave us bids, Bill was able to work his schedule to fit us in weeks sooner than the others. Although the cost was a bit more, that saved us money because we were displaced and could not even go into our house because of the fumes. CU set up negative air machines to replace the air, they followed asbestos abatement laws, they cleaned every item that could be salvaged in our house. They even saved more than we thought which really reduced our overall expense. Bill and his team were extremely professional, friendly, helpful, and really went out of their way to ease our stress from this situation. At the end of their process, Bill arranged for a air quality inspection which we happily passed - able to return home. I would gladly recommend Contractors Unlimited for asbestos abatement. I just wish we had called them before the floor guys created such a disaster. Thank you Bill! "
"They were great. I did not use them because someone that lives near me was a roofer, which I didn't know at the time of purchase, and they beat this companies price. Otherwise, I would not have hesitated to use this company. "
"It cost us about $12,000 but then we got a refund and tax rebate. I think on the whole it was a positive experience. We had to have them come back and redo the basement because they hired some people who never knew what they were doing. They covered some things which shouldn’t have been covered and so that was pretty bad. They came and looked at it and the guy who was in charge of the insulation came and said that it was not going to stand and the best guy they had came out and tore out the bad stuff and completely redid a third of the basement to our satisfaction. They did a good job ultimately but it was just a drag and I had to call and tell them it was not right. I went with another company who arranged for these guys to come out and so I didn’t price shop. We are very happy with an insulated house. It is a lot quieter and it was definitely worth doing. The big ticket was that we decided to inject foam into the walls. We have an old balloon frame house and we paid $7500 for that and you could do it for less money but we chose an expensive one. Once they came back and fixed it the quality was good and I was happy with it. We wouldn’t use them again because we did call them to do a ventilation job and they wanted $3000 to do ventilation up there and we were kind of concerned that they never mentioned it when they were doing the insulation. I feel that if I weren’t there to watch out and see what they were doing they would have left the basement in the way I didn’t like it. I had to call them and tell them that I didn’t like and it was not appropriate and then they came right over and fixed it. I feel that was not my job. I felt that my job was to hire somebody and their job was to do it right. "

Yes, crawl space insulation is worth it if installed correctly. Installing insulation in your crawl space will improve the air quality, help stabilize your home's temperature, lower your energy bills, and prevent pests from entering your home. Though you’ll pay more to install insulation initially, the savings you get from installing insulation can help offset those initial costs over time.
To keep cold out, look for treatments that sit close to the window frame and are made from thick, insulating materials. Thermal curtains, cellular shades, window quilts, and insulated shutters can all help retain heat. Layering window treatments, like pairing lined curtains with cellular shades, can provide even better insulation by further reducing drafts and heat transfer.
Yes, products made from renewable resources and with reduced chemical impacts.
Spray foam insulation can last between 80 and 100 years, depending on the type. Closed-cell spray foam is more durable, while open-cell foam is more susceptible to moisture damage and deterioration. It's important to consult a professional installer to understand which type of foam will be used and its specific longevity. Additionally, be aware that some spray foams can damage plastic piping, so if you have PVC or CPVC pipes, discuss this with your installer.
