"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.
As long as a licensed professional installs your gas lines, you don’t have to do anything extra to prepare for cold weather. If there are pipes that require a wrap, your installer should have done it for you already. If you want to be absolutely sure your gas system is good to go for winter, the best option is to schedule a gas line inspection.
Depending on the size, insulation condition, and removal method, it can take anywhere from four hours up to twenty hours. Therefore, be prepared to split the projects into phases, or leave it to a professional. Insulation is an intermediate project with various risk factors and can be challenging to someone unfamiliar with the process.
The primary purpose of insulation is to maintain comfortable temperatures in a home, whether that’s cool air when it’s hot out, or warm air in winter, but that’s not all it can do. All options will also minimize heating and cooling needs, lowering both your carbon footprint and energy bills in turn. And some options, like rigid foam boards, even offer soundproofing benefits, too.
The best time to insulate a garage ceiling is when the weather is mild and dry. That means it shouldn’t be stormy, snowy, or raining, and the temperatures should be comfortable. Ideally, you’ll insulate your garage ceiling in the fall, before winter hits. Not only will you be the most comfortable, but you’ll also likely see the greatest energy savings heading into the colder weather with a newly insulated garage.
Polyisocyanurate foam, or polyiso for short, has the highest R-value per square inch: 6.5 to 6.8. Polyiso is a rigid foam that comes with a reflective foil on both sides to serve as a radiant barrier. Given its high R-value, rigid foam is usually meant for foundations and basement walls.
