"Exactly as the same as the first time I air sealed my attic in my previous house. Last year when we decided to sell our house I was inspecting my house as I would have if I was purchasing it. I noticed a small (1/4") gap between the master bathroom vent fan grill and the ceiling. I could not adjust it. Upon further inspection I realize it was because the foam that was installed when my attic was air sealed had expanded creating the 1/4" gap. I had that work done two years prior by Houle Insulation. I contacted Arne and inquired if he had any suggestions. His only suggestion was that he would correct the problem. Two days later he had two workers in my attic correcting the issue. Just like the first time, they were prompt and cleaned up after the work. I offered to pay, he would not have it. He said he should have noticed when the job was originally completed two years prior. There was no discussion or haggling, he simply said he would correct it. As impressed as I was with the lower energy bill, I was more impressed with how he and his team comported themselves. Also my house was more comfortable because the temperature was more uniform within my house. This year when we moved into our new house, built in 1992, the first thing I did was call Arne to air seal the attic. My choice of whom to hire for air sealing my attic was a no brainer, Houle Insulation. They also performed a blower door test. They also sent in all the information required for me to receive an energy rebate from my utility company. The best recommendation I can make is that when I decided to air seal our new home the first person I called was Arne. He made a wise decision to correct what needed with correcting without any questions. He did what should have been done, and therefore he got my repeat business and I was happy to give my business to him!"

"The thermal inspection was cheap. They came out, were on time, and were friendly. They came out one day and it was warmer than we expected so they came out the next day so they could point out the cold areas so that was nice of them."

"Mark and his crew showed up on time (Friday morning) to perform the work.  They initially laid down pads and painters sheets since blowing in cellulose insulation can get quite dusty/messy.  They performed the work exactly as described in the bid.  Insulating my attic to R60 (up from what it was of R12-15) and filled in all the joists, etc.  They even build a wooden platform around an air handler in the attic so it can still be maintained with ease.  One of Mark's co-worker spent most of the time in the basement fixing the frozen pipe issue.  He applied insulation and sealant in a crawl space near the main water line and reseated an air vent behind the wall, while applying more insulation.  He even went to a local hardware store and procured a vent to cover up a hole in the wall we wanted to leave exposed so warm air can flow through (didn't even ask or think to charge me for the vent).  The job lasted about 6 hours (which was exactly what Mark quoted).  They cleaned up with a shop vac so the house looked very clean when they left.
All in all, was very pleased with the professionalism, knowledge and service provided by Mark and his crew.  I proudly displayed a sign in my front yard advertising his services to others and would recommend him to family/friends.

"Another reliably good service transaction from Cady and Dustin (and two roofing sub-contractors). We got an estimate for this project during a previous visit. Price was competitive with another Angie's-Listed electrician. We went with a known entity. NuTone 2.5-sone bath fans, with switches independent of the light switch, were installed in two bathrooms. A separate switch had to be installed in one of the locations because of room configuration; the other room had a simple replacement of switch type. It was an all-day project, but work was good and a decent value. Dustin kept up cleaning attic insulation throughout the day. Only minor complaint I have is a small divot put into the wall plaster near one of the switches."

"Two man crew and a supervisor occasionally showed up, but the two men were BETTER then i had every anticipated.
I'm not sure how long the two men that installed my eGress have been doing this kind of work, or how long they have been working for Greene Construction Inc, but they have been trianed in great.
They took very good care of my home and of my property, the detail of the exterior and the interior is a wonderful addition to my home.
 I had choice to go with a wooden treated exterior WELL , instead of the metal one, so again the two men crew hand dug the hole, CUT a hole into my house, as i came and went, I seen them use what seem to be 3 different types insulation around the window, some kind of thick tape, some kind of wired sticky expanding foam, and what ever else, and small pebbles rocks which are about 10 inchs below the very bottom of the new installed eGress window.
Just two days after the job, we had some serious rain, and i had no fear to my home, but 3 hours after the rain had stop, I went to the exterior to check just how the new WELL had head up, if it had any water pooled, and as the crew told me, there should not be, and there was none.
SO would i use Greene Construction Inc, again, YES, would i recommend to friends or others, YES.
You will not be disappointed with this company.
yours

"I know a lot of people hate them, but they've always been, pretty much with anything that has gone wrong, they've been really responsive. We used another one previous to them, I can't remember their name, I wish I could because I really would want give them an "F". American Home Shield has been good. The last time we had something done, it was just over what our deductible was, which, I want to say, is like $100. They pretty much covered everything else, which was a few hundred dollars."

"We had water damage due to a plumbing leak. The company removed the old drywall in the bathroom, bedroom and lower floor ceiling. They installed new insulation, new drywall, coat it in joint compound and sanded everything in four days. They kept me current on what is going on with the project, They kept the dust to a minimum by containing the entire area. They really are drywall ninja's."

Insulation questions, answered by experts

Selling a house with spray foam insulation can be challenging due to concerns about improper installation or its compatibility with the home's structure. If not applied correctly, spray foam can cause issues such as moisture buildup, cracking, or damage to wiring and plumbing. If the insulation didn't cure correctly, there are also flammability concerns. Removing or repairing this type of insulation can pose risks as well.

Opting for insulated ducts can lead to significant long-term savings on your energy bills and contribute to a more efficient HVAC system. The precise amount you can save depends on various factors, including your climate, usage patterns, and the insulation's quality. However, on average, insulated ducts can result in savings of up to 20% on your annual heating and cooling costs, according to ENERGY STAR®.

The cost to rent an insulation vacuum ranges between $250 and $350 per day. The price will increase if you choose to rent for additional days, but you may get a discounted daily rate if you rent it for a whole week, which could cost up to $1,000. Once you've removed the insulation and are ready to replace it, the cost to rent a blown-in insulation machine ranges between $100 and $500.

Chimney liners often benefit from insulation, though it is not always required. Insulation helps improve the liner's efficiency by keeping flue gasses hotter, which enhances draft and reduces creosote buildup. It also prevents condensation, which can lead to corrosion. Insulation is important for chimneys on exterior walls or in colder climates. Some building codes may require insulation, so checking local regulations is essential.

When installing metal siding, a high-quality house wrap is considered the best protection against condensation and moisture infiltration. House wraps can increase a home's efficiency significantly. However, a house wrap is not a replacement for a vapor barrier because it can be permeable when moist air passes through siding. This is why it's essential to follow manufacturer instructions for insulating siding when installing new siding.
