RetroGreen Energy

Great process, from bid to completion.

Excellent company! Excellent work!

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!!!!

We hired RetroGreen to install foamed-in-place insulation in our house, which was built in 1960, with only 2" of wall insulation. For most houses, which have horizontal siding, installation is fairly simple. Our house has vertical board and batten siding, which makes the project more difficult. The installer can't simply remove a couple of courses of siding, do the work, and replace the siding. One approach for board and batten siding is to drill holes through the boards and insert plugs after installing the insulation. No matter how carefully this is done, I suspect the result would be visually unacceptable, with rows of obvious plugs around the house. Instead, I asked them to drill holes only behind the battens. I removed all of the battens, first marking the sides, RetroGreen skillfully drilled their holes within the lines, so when I replaced the battens, all of the holes were concealed. In one small area, that didn't work, so they provided plugs that closely matched the siding boards. Chris was quite helpful throughout the process, discussing options and making suggestions. The team was professional and efficient, providing protection and cleaning up on completion. The result is excellent; there is no visual evidence of the installation.

Education and honesty. Great company

Absolutely Excellent! Ethical, professional, detailed, fair pricing! Thank you!

They were late but did a great job and cleanup was perfect.

Would recommend

The main individual started out polite and everything seemed fine. However, when they did the actual work, the quality was poor and I had to ask them to correct NUMEROUS areas where they had no more than 1/2â of insulation, gaps, etc. I paid them $2600 for ONE ROOM. He became very rude when I asked him to correct items that were complete gaps, and he had the gall to rudely hand me a razor blade to cut away the areas they left sticking out well past the window edges . Worse yet, they had many areas sticking out well past the height of the 2x2â s so that it would have been impossible to install the Sheetrock! I had to have them fix many items and even then I had to correct several things myself at $100+ an hour my rate to trim / fix various areas ....

Professional and courteous. The folks on site took time to answer any question, wore masks and cleaned up well. They did great job painting the stucco after insulation and patching - house looks great. The insulation is already making huge difference in my 1911 house in Minneapolis- not sure the boiler will kick in till December.

Great job, no complaints

These "experts" told us our problem with ice dams would significantly improve and our energy bills would be reduced by replacing and upgrading our insulation in the attic. We paid them over $13,000 and the result- ice dams got WORSE and the energy bills didn't go down. We asked them to re-evaluate. They admitted they should have done some vents and other things differently, and said they'd return to make those corrections. Guess what....they never showed up and now they won't return our calls or emails. Needless to say, we are very disappointed. We threw $13,000 down the drain. Do not use this company. Go elsewhere.

Very accommodating, professional service.

I found them to be on time, very cordial, went right to work got the job done quickly cleaned up after themselves just did an outstanding and excellent job. Guys that did the job were dressed well for the job clean in appearance took care of business and left. Just very excellent I am sure you would not be disappointed. their pricing seems to be right.

awesome job

They were excellent! Highly recommend!

Great company. Did great work and it made such a difference

Everything was performed as outlined. They cleaned up after themselfs. Before and after test results showed 64% improvement in insulation and air sealing. I m pleased.

Fantastic experience end-to-end. The estimate/sales presentation was thorough but not pushy, clearly explaining their unique product. Communication throughout was clear and met all expectations. The crew showed up on time, were polite and efficient.

Very accomodating- Worked around my schedule

THEY WERE SO NICE. THEY WORKED HARD AND FINISHED MUCH FASTER THAN I THOUGHT. THEY CLEANED UP EVERYTHING BEAUTIFULLY.

Fast friendly and curtius.got the job done in one day. Only complaint I have is cleanup. Still cleaning up old insulation from where dumpster was. Would deffently hire them again

Very good communication regarding plans and times.
