"From the initial interaction through sweeping up - the insulation inc team were thorough in explaining their bid, the cellulose insulation product- and the process. They showed up on time - blew our garage attic and left the garage clean."
"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!"
"One of the most enjoyable interactions I've had with a contractor. Mike and Maurice where professional and personable. On time with quality workmanship during the project. Really appreciate my first encounter with Mike during his first visit for a quote as there was no high-pressure sales tactics (i.e. quote only good for today). Project was weatherization and re-insulation of the attic. They told me exactly what they were doing and why and answered any question I had. I'd had friends tell me when they had this done it was messy...not so with MnM as they cleaned up very nicely when the job was finished. I'd have no problem recommending them to family/friends who were looking for the same type of project."
"The pricing was very reasonable. I had my attic insulated. The blown in insulation took less than an hour. They were very friendly. I would use this company again for future work."
"Ed was very professional, was able to answer my questions, recommended a solution, and was present onsite the day of the job to connect all the dots with the team completing the work. Would highly recommend for your insulation needs"
"I was hesitant about installing insulation in both the attic and walls, but am really glad I did. My split level was so hot upstairs in the summer and I immediately noticed an incredibly comfortable difference on the next 80+ degree day. They also made sure I knew about rebates and tax credits available. So helpful! Thank you, USA Insulation!"
"This review is for St. Cloud Retro Green. We own a home built in 1900. It was never insulated. 2x8 construction. They arrived on time and finished on time. They were super polite and did an excellent job!! We are very happy with them and highly recommend them!!!!"
"I was really impressed with the whole team at Guevara Insulation. They worked efficiently, the quality, and attention to detail was top notch. As a builder, and remodeler I've worked with many tradesmen over the years. So I can tell when guys really care about what they do, and it shows in their work. I had them work on my personal home build. They spray foamed all the exterior walls, and joist pockets, installed fiberglass batts, poly'd and caulked all framing seams. Then came back to finish the blow in once the drywall was up. I'll definitely be using them on my future projects, and will be recommending them to anyone needing insulation work done."
"We’ve had a great experience working with this company on several projects. They’ve completed batt insulation, spray foam, and blown-in insulation for us, and the quality of their work has always been excellent. Their team is knowledgeable, reliable, easy to work with, and does a great job keeping things clean and professional on the jobsite. We appreciate their attention to detail and consistent communication and would highly recommend them for any insulation needs!"
Energy-efficient homes generally have higher appraisals and appeal to buyers.
Reflective and high R-value batt or roll insulation are often considered energy-efficient, offering significant thermal resistance benefits.
Three signs that you need crawl space insulation are drafts, high energy bills, and mold. Drafts can start in crawl spaces and cause hot or cold air to spread to the rest of your home through holes in the floors and walls. And even if your entire home is well-insulated, you can still feel an unchecked draft from your crawl space and in your utility bill. Uninsulated crawl spaces can let in air and moisture, and because they’re built directly on the ground and difficult to dry out, they are hotspots for mold and mildew.
If you have access to the foundation walls, adding spray foam insulation to your existing unfinished basement or crawl space is straightforward. Replacing existing insulation in your unfinished attic space is possible after removing the old insulation. However, spray foam insulating an existing wall after the drywall is in place isn’t possible unless you remove most of the drywall.
Depending on where you live and the conditions of your basement, you may not need to insulate your basement. Your best bet is to talk to a basement remodeling company to find out what they recommend doing.
Insulating your basement can help improve your home's energy efficiency, but it will also increase the cost of your basement remodel project. The average cost of installing basement insulation is $2,400.
