Allied Spray Foams Inc

There are three different ways that people can be harm by this product. 1st, Spray Foam is a mixture of toxic chemicals that cure in 24 hours but if not mixed properly, it will not cure in 24 hours.And then the chemical might not mixed evenly so it may cure in some areas and not to some other areas. If it will not cure ,it will leave an odor and its supposed to be an irritant. 2nd, Sealing and air space seems to change the smell of the natural gas additives so that the gas leak might not be identified. 3rd, inadequate combustion air to a gas appliance can result to Carbon Monoxide gas which is dangerous and deadly. I believe all three of these consequences but Allied Spray Foam and not required to be licensed. I just thought I was just insulating my home, I was never warned. I had three coats of Zero VOC primer and three coats of VOC sealant to the Spray Foam to contain the fumes. I experienced nausea for one year before discovering a gas leak that might be present for the whole year. I lost consciousness and was injured, and I believe that the Carbon Monoxide was the possible cause. I was not able to prove this but I feel that my home is not safe.

The spray foam has made my home partially uninhabitable. It was installed in February 2016 and I have never been able to move in completely. I have many of my attic belongings in storage and boxes and furnishings piled in two rooms and a shed and a bathroom. Allied has not stood behind the product. Spray Foam Alliance said that when the foam is installed in cold temperatures it may emit excess 'amines' which are malodorous; also they said there are different grades of spray foam and some lower grades may offgas more. The manufacturer is SWD Urethane and they acted like they don't know what I am talking about. I tried having the attic ceiling spray painted with two coats of Sherwin Williams zero VOC product and that did not work so I called Green Building Supplies and they said that the AMF hard coat sealer always works in two coats. First I tested the AFM sealer at someone's rental over pet urine and three coats sealed it perfectly and I could breath fine. So I had three coats applied to my attic ceiling but that did not remove the odors. I had also rented a commercial fan to try to evacuate the air space after the S/W paint. I also purchased a high BTU portable AC/fan that is vented out the roof which I have run. Would you guess that running fans has elevated my electrical bill rather than lowering it? What a surprise! I believe I am out a couple thousands of dollars on remedies and storage so far and without the comfort of a well organized home with livable space.

Professional and courteous! These guys did a tremendous job.

I hired Scott a few years ago to encapsulate my crawl space. Great guys, professional and thorough. I was in the market for additional work to seal my attic and increase insulation under my master suite that sits over the garage. Honest, fair and professional. The whole crew has been together for a long time and they did a great job. With the second floor a/c and furnace in the attic just inches from the roof, encapsulating the attic will increase the seer rating of the system and should net a 65% or so decrease in overall heating and cooling costs. No brainer benefit for the cost. If you are considering spray foam insulation, these are the guys to hire.

They did a really good job and foamed everything. I highly recommend them.

Very pleased with results. Showed up on time each of the two days they were here. Extra effort was made to assure work area was cleaned before they left. Scott made sure to keep me informed both before and after the job was complete.

I wanted to store things in the attic in a climate-controlled atmosphere but it was prohibitively expensive to finish the attic so my contractor suggested spray foam instead. The job took about a day and a half. I am extremely pleased with the results. The attic stays within a few degrees of the temperature of the second floor and the second floor stays warmer. The attic and the second floor are much quieter. I was somewhat skeptical at the start but I am a believer now. Scott and his team were very professional and personable and have had a great deal of experience. They answered all my questions and explained everything they were doing and why. The price was a little steep but I am supposed to receive a $500 rebate from Duke Energy Progress for the insulation upgrade and a $500 tax credit from the Feds.

Everything went just as they had described it would. Great job cleaning up after and making sure I was happy. I am planning on having them do my house in apex next month.

Scott was good to work with from Estimate through final payment. His crew was punctual, and work was completed as expected. I was, and continue to be 10 months later, very happy with both their work as well as my decision to spend extra on foam. Combined with quality garage doors, the insulation in my garage allows this space to nearly cool itself in the summer and heat itself in the winter just from the constant-ish 60 degree slab/ground temperature.
I will note that I am an extremely nit-picky person, especially with this garage project. With that in mind, I do have one VERY small, ultimately non-consequential, recommendation for Allied and anybody using _any_ spray foam service for that matter. Because this garage space had been in use, I did have new, shiny diamond plated fluorescent light fixtures in place. These hung down 16and quot; or so from the ceiling by chains, so I didn't think anything of them being in the way, and I left them in place so the crew would have some lighting. Many of these got a speckling of and quot;oversprayand quot; on them which none of the chemicals I have tried will remove. This overspray is effectively invisible in usage (on top of the fixtures), and didn't affect light output in any way, so it's not critical at all, but also not ideal. I have NOT brought this up with Allied directly, nor reduced my rating at all for this as it's ultimately very minor, but I will say that identifying the potential for this overspray up front would have been even better!

Sonny and team arrived on time and worked efficiently to complete the work in about 6 hours. Placement of the insulation looks perfect with no gaps for heat loss or gain to the outside. Outcome way exceeded my expectation.

Very well. The whole team was courteous and professional. The work was performed on time and schedule. Just by chance, the Progress Energy Home Rebate Program Managers were conducting a training meeting and asked if they could visit our home to check out the work. The management team was impressed with the quality and professionalism of the job and processed my rebate on the spot!
