"Very well, these guys are great, they seal everything right and load tons of insulation. My house is now at a R60. And this was not cheap, however I do not expect heating costs to go down for many years to come unless we all go solar."
"I could not be more impressed with Jesse and his team. They were so responsive, so professional, and so incredibly helpful. Great communication throughout. Great work product. Pricing that was very competative and reasonable. The next time I have an insulation need I won't even both to get bids from other shops. I will just use Century. Highly recomend."
"Ed and his crew were awesome to work with. He called back within minutes and we had his bid an hour or two later. After 4 other bids we ultimately went with Ed because he helps his crew on the roof. They do excellent work and the clean-up was great too. Roof was done in two days. Highly recommend Ed."
Trevor was part of the team when we were finishing a kitchen remodel in 2014. At that time we had him open a space in a wall for a future cabinet, but not cut through the wall until we knew what we wanted. We figured out what would work best and asked him to finish the wall cut-out and smooth the sides so the new cabinet will fit. While Trevor cut the drywall, his helper vacuumed up all the dust. They also moved a storage unit to another room. Trevor also answered some questions I had about a problem outside.
They were done with everything within 40 min and no dust or drywall fragments remained. I'm sure he will return to help with some other job in the future.
"As always, we are thrilled with the work done by Hoffman Weber Construction. Love the look of the windows - but also the safety factor. The installers were on time, friendly, and did a super job. We would hire them for any of their services."
"Mark was very prompt with the inspection and bid, and was able to get right to work. He sized up my situation expertly and suggested details that I would have overlooked. His crew of two were very efficient and finished the job in five hours. Mark was present for the start and finish of the job. He had excellent advice for a future phase of my project, and was open to doing those parts of it that are beyond my expertise. (In other words, he can work small and not insist on taking the whole job). Affable guy too, with an enthusiasm for insulation. Recommended. "
"Damien and his crew are fantastic! I highly recommend them for any and all of your construction needs. I am a picky interior designer, and they surpassed my expectations! They went above and beyond to recommend other subcontractors and talked through everything with me thoroughly throughout the project. They worked quickly, always cleaned up at the end of each task and were friendly, punctual and very easy to communicate with by phone and email.
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).
Traditional clapboard siding, particularly with panels made from wood, is not a significant insulator on its own. However, you can keep your home cooler in summer and warmer with "insulated clapboard siding," which is a type of vinyl clapboard siding with a built-in foam insulation. Consult a local siding contractor to determine whether insulated siding is right for your home.
One of the biggest disadvantages of glass garage doors is that they are not the best at insulating your garage. In the summer, heat can enter through the glass, while in the winter, heat can escape through the glass, increasing your electricity and gas bills as you crank up your HVAC unit. You can help mitigate the poorer insulation by investing in insulated glass and insulating your garage.
Minimal but regular checks can ensure maximum thermal performance.
The best way to reduce heat upstairs is to release it by opening a window. Hot air rises, and if you can create some airflow by opening a window upstairs and also one on a lower level, the hot air should be pushed out of the home. Remember that fans pointing out the window do a much better job of circulating air than fans pointing into the home.
