"Standard Insulating Company sent David E to our house to a**** a problem we were having with hot spots in certain areas. David was up front with his assessment and explained everything in a way we were able to understand. The quote he emailed us was surprisingly reasonable with no hidden fees or surprises. We chose to have our insulation capped as well as radiant barrier installed. The work was scheduled less than a week later and the crew was professional, knowledgable, quick, efficient and kept the whole work area clean. I highly recommend Standard Insulating Company to anyone looking to have any type of insulation work done."
We had some questions about some problems under the house. A man came out and explained to me what they could offer to try to solve those problems. They call it the doctor energy specialist or something, I don?t know. It?s about removing moisture and other things from under the house and making sure the ducts are properly attached and that they are insulated properly. That the house insulation is proper and they sealed most of the vents to keep the wet air from coming in. They put in a dehumidifier and all that stuff. They did a large amount of work. They put in a new moisture barrier and corrected some problems that we already paid somebody to do and they didn?t do. They even attached the dryer duct, which wasn?t attached and the air was going out all under the house. They were very very good. They did what they said. They took all the trash and everything they found out from under there. This whole experience has been a nightmare. Those people at GSM were super. The inspection he did not charge us for, but we put an amount down on the work they were going to start doing. It was excellent because he went under the house, he took pictures of all the things he was going to tell me about, and then he explained the different treatments that were available and the prices for those treatments. And what particular things they would correct. It was very clear and he was very good about answering my questions. He seemed very experienced.
"Did not do work, but pricing was competitive with everyone else. Invoice got lost in junk e-mail, so did not think I ever received invoice, but I found it a month or so after job was completed again. If\when I have another job will call All Foam and make sure Invoice doesn't get lost in junk e-mail! "
"Outstanding! Mario and his workers did a fantastic job! They removed all insulation. They sanded off all wood and treated with a solution to kill any residual mold. They placed new insulation. They encapsulated the whole crawl space and placed a dehumidifier. I felt very confident that the job was "done right". The whole organization very professional."

"John (the owner) emailed me promptly. He provided me a quote with a clear explanation of what is covered. At the end I did not use his company because I needed the job done sooner than he could schedule."
Insulating ductwork improves your HVAC system's energy efficiency by protecting the air from external conditions and preventing energy loss as it travels through the ducts. This means your system doesn't have to work as hard to heat or cool your home, leading to lower energy bills and a reduced carbon footprint. Additionally, insulated ducts help maintain a more consistent and stable indoor temperature, enhancing comfort. Proper insulation also improves indoor air quality by reducing the entry of allergens and pollutants and helps prevent problems like condensation and mold formation within the ductwork.
A dehumidifier can reduce condensation on your ductwork by lowering humidity levels in the air. Condensation occurs when humid, warm air makes contact with cold ducts. A dehumidifier can help maintain your home's indoor humidity below or around 50%, minimizing moisture buildup. However, if condensation is caused by leaks, cracks, or other damage, a dehumidifier won’t solve the problem.
Yes. Proper, complete insulation will ensure that you trap the most cool or warm air inside your home, preventing high energy bills. In addition, insulation tends to settle and compress, leaving gaps over time; the more you insulate completely during the initial installation, the less you’ll need to do down the line.
Durable materials suited for climate include aluminum for coastal areas or composite wood in varying environments for durability and minimal upkeep.
You don’t need to staple insulation, as your drywall and studs will hold it into place. But if you already have a staple gun and staples lying around, it can help keep the product in place and avoid any shifting. But, most experts agree it’s an unnecessary step.
If you’re adding a vapor barrier, you will need to staple that in place.
