I picked Nu-Way Insulation to provide insulation for my upstairs bedroom walls, attic space, and garage ceiling. I settled on using Nu-Way after evaluating multiple insulation providers for about a month. I contacted Nu-Way after reading a number of positive reviews, and eventually hired them. I'm glad I moved forward with using Nu-Way.
My first meeting with a representative of the company was with Louis Mazzio (one of the company owners). Louis was very pleasant, patient, and accommodating. Louis admitted that sales was not his strong point, so his sales pitch might not be typical. After viewing the space that I wanted insulated, he explained to me what his crew would do, what materials would be used and how they compare to other well known products (cellulose vs. foam), and how long the job would take. Louis even drew me a small picture to better explain what the inside of my walls most likely looked like at the time and what they would look like afterwards. He did a great job at comparing the services that his company offered versus what competitors offered. Lastly, Louis gave me a price that I could accept, which was more favorable than what competitors were charging. I got the impression that Louis was not interested in selling the service, but was more about helping me to understand why I needed the service from his company.
After my first meting with Louis, I did not immediately settle on using his company. I actually went back to a competitor to see how they would respond to some of the new information I had as a result of my meeting with Louis. I was not too impressed with the answers I got, but I still was not yet completely sold on hiring Nu-Way. I was not yet sold only because I really wanted to make sure that I would be making the right decision in who to hire.
After making the decision to hire Nu-Way, the day of the appointment arrived. Louis and his crew of seven arrived promptly at 8:30am. I was impressed immediately by Louis' crew. It should be noted that Nu-Way's crew consists of long time Nu-Way employees, some of which also happen to be family members of Louis. Since part of the crew is related to Louis and or are long time employees of the company, the crew has a stake in how well the company performs. Therefore, they strive to do a great job. After the crew introduced themselves, they immediately got to work. They took great care in prepping the space, so as to avoid making a mess in my bedroom and garage. A number of access holes would have to be cut out to get behind the walls and into the attic space, so there would be a lot of drywall dust left on the floors and in the air. They covered my floors and furniture with their own carpets or plastic. They moved what furniture needed to be moved and cleared out closets that had to be worked in. All of my personal items were handled very carefully. The crew worked the entire day (from about 8:30am to 4:00pm), only stopping to take a lunch break. Lou had to leave the work site on a few occasions to handle other business, but he did stop in on two or three occasions to check in on the work and to do a final walk through when the work was completed. The crew left my home in the condition that it started in (floors vacuumed and access holes patched and left ready for me to paint).
Overall, I was very impressed with Nu-Way, Louis, the crew, and the work that was done. After a few conversations with Lou, I feel like I know him and his crew on a personal level. I am already seeing a benefit of the insulation. I have noticed that my boiler is not running as much as it did prior to having the insulation added. This means that the work is already paying off in the form of helping me save on energy costs. I am looking forward to hiring Nu-Way again in the near future to do additional insulation work on my first floor.
Spoke with Lou on the same day we called Nu-Way in late Sept. We arranged a mutually convenient time for the estimate. Lou inspected the attic and garage areas after listening to our list of drafty, cold areas in the house. He gave us a reasonable estimate on the back of his calling card. He gently reminded us that the busy season for insulation would soon start & that if we decided to go with Nu-Way, not to delay calling back to get on the schedule.
Since Nu-Way was in the ball park of estimates, we engaged Nu-Way. There was no deposit requirement until the work began with 50% required at the end of the first day and the balance at the end of the second and last day.
We expected work to begin in late October, but the installation actually began in mid November which was fine. A full crew arrived a little late but Lou called ahead to let us know. They were very professional, neat ( covered hard wood floors and rugs for the exit pathway) respectful of our home and cleaned up at the end of each day.
The job took 2+ days to complete. The finishing touches on the closure of the ceiling where the whole house fan was located took another 2 hours on a third day. Well worth the extra time as the repair was seamless!
With the arctic cold that we experienced in December and January, we can vouch for the great improvement in the comfort of our home this winter! In comparing Con Ed bills from our previous 2 winters in this home, the amounts are a little less, but this winter has been much colder and the Con Ed rates are higher.
We highly recommend Nu-Way!
The day of the job Louis, Juan, Bryan and the crew arrived on time and immediately set out to move furnishings and made sure everything was properly covered and protected.They covered every bit of area that they were walking and working on.
I was impressed with the work done and the clean up that they did so I decided to have them do the first floor walls also.
I was worred about the mess doing the main floor would cause but the crew kept the dust and noise to the bare minimum.
Because we added work to what was initially agreed they had to come a second day and repeated exactly what they did on the first day.
The crew allowed me to oberve them as they work and answered questions on what they were doing at all times, T
They were willing to do lots of extra little jobs that I asked of them.
Nu-way is extremely punctual and did an excellent job cleaning up.
The folks from Nu-Way Insulation were prompt, provided an immediate clear and concise proposal, and delivered above and beyond expectations. They were a pleasure to have in the house, cleaned up after their work and followed-up to make sure all was completed satisfactorily. We immediately felt the difference, and after a couple of 95 degree days, the condensation problem seems to be solved and the A/C had no problem cooling the upstairs rooms.
I would absolutely use them for any insulation related job and highly recommend them to my friends and neighbors.
