Best insulation pros near Funkstown, MD

"HIGHLY RECOMMENDED! GREAT WORK AND STELLAR CUSTOMER SERVICE! I had an excellent experience with Founders Insulation and owner Brian Handy. Brian's a great guy—knowledgeable, honest, responsive, and easy to work with. He clearly explained what was needed, what was optional, and why. He showed exactly where the insulation and air-sealing problems were, giving me complete confidence in his recommendations. There was no pressure to add unnecessary work, and everything stayed within budget. Work included removing old attic insulation, extensive air sealing, insulating the attic to R-60, sealing the attic hatch, adding insulation to vaulted ceilings, and spray-foaming problem areas and a cantilever. The team did an incredible job. I was especially impressed with how thoroughly they cleaned up afterward. Most importantly, I've noticed a significant decrease in my heating and A/C costs since the work was completed. Excellent communication, quality work, fair pricing, and no surprises."

"I had several options to pursue in finding a remedy for my hot attic. After meeting with the insulation consultant who was extremely knowledgeable, patient, and provided detailed explanations of how to insulate I knew proceeding with the job was the right decision. My attic is noticeably cooler and I highly recommend"

"On time, courteous, clean and efficient. Foamed and drywalled the garage efficiently, and cleaned up well after the job. Provided advise on issues seen during insulation preparation. Great service."

"I hired Atlas Home Energy Solutions to remove old insulation and replace it with the foam technique. However, I ran into numerous unexpected problems due to a slow leak from old pipes. It took awhile to sort out. Atlas Home Energy Solutions gave me lots of expert advice. They were willing to come out and review the situation. They were also willing to reschedule and wait until another contractor dealt with the water issue and its ensuing problems. They helped me make some difficult decisions before they could insulate the crawl space. When it was ready for them to come and insulate the area they bumped their schedule forward to get it done. This company did sterling work. Their expertise and professionalism were outstanding. They really know what they are doing and guided me through a more protracted process than originally envisioned. I would highly recommend them to anyone."

"Accurate insulation came promptly at the specified time. They were thorough and so professional. The quality of work is fantastic. Couldn’t be more satisfied. This is the second time that we’ve used them and will not hesitate to use them again shall the need arises."

"Between Brad K., the company’s support team, and the crews who come out to do the job and execute the work, you cannot select a better company to help you make your home energy efficient and reduce your utility bills by insulating the house and sealing your duct work. As for Brad K., the job begins with Brad coming to your house and conducting an Energy Audit. This gives everyone a far better understanding as to what needs to be done in your home. And, Brad concludes with conducting a “ Test Out,“ to see the improvements. Pepco will offer you a partial rebate for the work completed and they are very satisfied with a 20% reduction. As for us, we hammered Brad with dozens of questions over the course of time before and after we ratified an agreement. In every case, Brad was extraordinarily responsive especially with him being burdened performing audits throughout the day and being offsite. We couldn’t be happier with Brad’s performance. The same goes for the inside team including Jeff, Gordon and Ashley. And, everyone of the guys and their team leads who came to the house not only focused on executing their expertise, but were also very customer focused. In our case, the “test out demonstrated a 36% reduction,“ and Brad believes the partial rebate will be even greater. A Little Constructive Feedback Here: Be sure to ask and fully understand what needs to be done prior to the crews arriving. We had three teams over three days (not in a row) and learned at that moment what more needed to be done to fully finish the job. This will minimize to virtually eliminate any further challenges for the crews and yourselves. However, the job was completed. Over the next 45 days or so, after our utility bill fully cycles, we look forward to seeing the results of Atlas’s work and the reduction in our utility bills. Atlas Home Energy Solutions is Your Best Buy. We are certainly available to provide any further references. RichandJames Peterson Silver Spring, MD (301) 592-1616 Email: [email protected]"

"We had a great experience with Ridge. The salesperson was very clear about the insulation options at the outset. The removal of old insulation and installation of new was done in one day. We are very pleased."

"We had insulation blown into our attic. Job was completed quickly and cleanly. We would recommend them to others who need the same service."

"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."

"This company is great to work with! A Cut Above Carpentry is responsive, treats us like were their only customer, and I have yet to have a repair or project they couldn't help with. They've helped us on at least 1/2 dozen different service calls for repairing our rental property and our home. We have had indoor repairs completed [from painting, to tile work, to replacing electrical fixtures] and outdoor repairs [they repaired rotten wood at the windows, replaced roof shingles and trim, repaired my deck, and fixed a water leak]. If they had not discovered the leak and located the source of it we would have had major damage in the Living Room. They repaired a problematic door that my home had for years which may seem like a small issue but I had previously paid other licensed handymen and professional carpenters who had "tried" to fix it on at least 4 different occasions. After having those others come back again and again I had given up. Marty offered to give it a shot and I told him that I did not want to pay to repair it again since I had already paid others hundreds of dollars to fix it in the past. A Cut Above Carpentry was able to fix it when they were there for another repair and did so at no charge! It has now been more than 5 years without a re-occurrence. [In the past the problem popped back up within 2 - 3 months]. My only regret is that in hindsight I wish I had paid them something for that repair since they were the only ones who could fix it right, the first time. These guys are great, there is no detail overlooked from the initial phone call to the repairs to the final billing and the follow up. They even gave me the tax form, and the paperwork to support it, to apply for a energy credit when we had our insulation upgraded - another thing we didn't know we needed. When fixing the water leak from a roof vent they discovered that we had little to no insulation in the attic! The fact that they let me know without pressuring me to fix it immediately gave me the feeling that they had genuine concern for my home, rather than just how much money they could make off of me and my old house. As usual they gave me a reasonable estimate and we had the work done within two weeks (not because they couldn't do it right away but because we had to save for the unexpected repairs). They explained that they took credit cards which was a lifesaver because we determined with winter coming it was very important to do ASAP. So glad we did since it turned out to be one of the coldest winters in years and we made it through with a lower heating bill than the year before. They completed the job in no time - under budget - and left my hallway cleaner than before they began. They are always on time, communicate well, have fair prices, and excellent customer service. Everyone I have worked with is pleasant, professional, and always seem to enjoy their work. I appreciate the accurate estimates so that there are no surprises when the final bi"
