"The insulation crew was prompt, professional, and did a fantastic job installing my new insulation. I highly recommend this company for anyone in need of insulation services."
This was a $150 big deal purchase. I don't think that went very well. It did not really mitigate our issues. Later on we brought in other contractors from a different service to come in and seal some cracks and whatnot. They just sort of did the bare minimum. I think they charged more than the price of the deal because it was a larger surface area. They did not really solve any of the issues and hey didn't bring to light any other things that could be causing our insulation problems.

"Joe did a great job on this, our dining room was a add on to connect the original home and the garage and had no insulation and boy in the winter it was unusable as well as the kitchen basically (the best part of the house). Joe came and drilled small holes in the attic floor that they sealed up later to allow for blowing in the insulation. And they cleaned up well. we have a 20 month old but there was nothing left over for the baby to put in her mouth. Joe is great! Our dining room is toasty and the kids can play in there year-round Plus they are were less than half of the expensive "efficiency" guys PSEG sent over. Those providers wanted to charge $10,000+ for basically the same job."
"Mark Group was great to work with, very knowledgeable, professional and responsive. We really got the sense that they were experts, and felt the most comfortable with their proposal and recommendations. Our 1950 ranch-style home developed significant mold in the attic, requiring a new roof/ventilation, mold removal and, as a final step, new insulation. Mark Group was very helpful in advising us about potential considerations with roof replacement in addition to the energy/insulation component they were focused on. The team did a terrific job, were very respectful of our home and property and completed the work in a single day. "
"I was emailed photos of the step by step removal of old insulation, mold treatments ant the poly and R30 insulation install and everything went well, I'm out of state and JohnForsyth was my contact and he keep us informed. A project well done. "

"I walked up the second flight stairs, everything was clean. When I reached the top landing there were no boxes, no debris, and all evidence that a renovation had taken place was gone. It was the day before the renovation was going to be finished and I was feeling a sense of relief. And I felt a second emotion, a sense of feeling cared for. Working Construction had completed my 100+ year old bathroom renovation on time, in a clean and orderly fashion, at a reasonable price, with hardly any glitches. I started this project with a great deal of trepidation, but the experience turned out to be a first time major renovation rite of passage. I could hardly believe my eyes when I saw the finished product and have barely used it since fearing I would somehow awaken from a dream too good to be true. With that said the bathroom has been used by others including my sister, brother and guests. Seasoned renovators may view my account of this renovation as overdramatic, but owning a very old grumpy Brownstone who relentlessly hurls obscenities at you in the form of bad plumbing, boiler complaining, cracked walls, poorly insulated windows, creaky unlocking doors, peeling linoleum floors, screaming ugly navy blue tiles, greased up fifty year old orange kitchen cabinets, moldy walls, and many and all matter of home repair nightmares, we could only imagine what would be unraveled when completely gutting out a bathroom. Vince and Harold arrived on a Sunday morning to assess the situation. They were reassuring and listened attentively and intently as I discussed my concerns. They assured me it would all be okay and warned me of any possible problems that we might encounter. Of course these were two businessmen that wanted to close the deal, but I sensed sincerity in their voices, and their faces did not indicate any sneaky salesman tactics. There was No macho posturing which I can not stand. I explained that I was sort of in a time predicament. If we were going to start sooner than later the project had to be done quickly, otherwise we would have to start in the new year. Later that day Vince got back to me with a quote and a timeline. He said they could get it done in one week for 11,000. They had the best offer with the quickest turn around and the best demeanor. I said “Yes.” And we were off. The bathroom was gutted out and the building didn’t collapse. Harold and his crew fiercely attacked demolition and the bathroom was completely gutted out in one day with all materials moved off site. They met their objective. Prior to the renovation the bathroom was composed of pink mauve tiles from floor to ceiling, which were starting to come off the wall. Once the walls were removed mold was revealed. We discovered that starting the whole project turned out to be imperative as the loose tiles that had come off the wall had allowed water to seep through causing mold. Harold showed me the decaying wood once all the walls were eliminated. Our new bathroom consists of white modern subway tiles (4 x 6), a hardwood ceramic tile floor, a round mirror with three lights above, a white cabinet, white toilet, and white sink vanity. To create a larger feeling in what was a very small bathroom Harold expanded the bathroom ceiling. I’m not sure why the original ceiling was only about eight feet high since the apartment ceilings are ten or rather twelve feet high, but Harold raised the ceiling making the bathroom feel more expansive. Not only did Harold replace the light fixture, but he added high hat lights inside the shower stall as well, which added additional brightness reflecting off the white tiles. Seriously, when I saw the new bathroom I was like one of those people on a home renovation show rendered speechless. I can’t describe the overwhelming sense of relief I feel having found Working Construction. The project wound up costing a total of 13,000, which was still under budget from what my sister and I had expected to pay. I have additional projects which I plan on seeking their help for, but more than this Working Construction has given me a clearer sense of the possibilities of this building. This bathroom is the best Christmas present I could have asked for and it was delivered by my Christmas angels at Working Construction."
Costs depend on insulation material, labor, accessibility, and whether existing insulation requires removal.
Insulation can be easy to install, depending on the condition of your walls, but there are many safety considerations and potential challenges involved. For example, most types of insulation are made from materials that can cause irritation if inhaled or if they come into contact with your skin. Additionally, installing insulation incorrectly can actually make moisture issues in your home worse.
Although the cost might seem high, winterizing your home is important for your health and the structural integrity of your home. Winterizing will keep your home warm and toasty during the cold months and prolong the life of your appliances, windows, pipes, sprinkler system, pool, and more.
Minimal, mainly occasional checks for damage or mold in extreme conditions.
You should not use spray foam insulation in several specific areas. Avoid applying it in spaces exposed to high temperatures, such as near electrical boxes or recessed lighting, unless the foam is specifically rated for such use. Applying foam near electrical boxes can damage the wiring, and using it too close to lightboxes or recessed lights creates a potential fire hazard. Additionally, do not use spray foam in areas prone to shifting or movement, as this can lead to cracks and gaps in the insulation. Finally, open-cell foam is unsuitable for use below ground or in areas exposed to moisture because it can absorb water, which compromises its insulating effectiveness.
