About us

The Fifth Fuel is a family owned and operated business. With over 30 years of experience in the industry, we’re not new to energy conservation and building science. As leaders in energy efficiency, we invest in educating our staff. The Fifth Fuel team receives ongoing training to stay on top of building science innovations. We are a Class A contractor operating in VA, DC, and MD. We are large enough to weatherize and insulate a multifamily subdivision yet small enough to take care of a cold floor over a small addition on the back of the house.

After reviewing our roof and attic space, the team recommended just blown fiberglass instead of foam. Super happy with the quality of work and the fair price.

Thorough explanation of work being completed. Answered all questions quickly. Work was done quickly and respected our home during the work. When finished they gave us pictures of work completed according to the contract.

They gave me the lowest estimate of four companies. Very courteous and professional staff, showed up on time, and delivered as promised. The estimator was clear, honest, and didn't try to upsell me stuff I didn't really need.

These guys were the benchmark for contracting work. Quick estimates on pricing that they stuck to. Timely quality work, and a great clean-up effort. 10/10 would recommend for insulation work.

I would get everything in writing. At each phase of start and completion, I would have someone on the team confirm what is being done. I paid over six thousand for two 6 to 7 hours daily work. This company did not seem to appreciate an informed consumer. The workers and sales were courteous and hard-working, following orders from management. The supervisor and Management were not customer friendly when questioned about certain parts of the job. Next time I will pick someone from the BBB list. Just my opinion.

Very reasonable price, quick work, protected and cleaned up any area of the home they were in. So far I have seen a very noticeable difference in the amount of time the hvac unit runs everyday compared to similar previous days.

Very efficient. Showed up on time; did exactly what they proposed. They had the job done two weeks before the other company was even ready to come out and give an estimate.

After researching and obtaining quotes from a number of companies, I selected The Fifth Fuel to air seal and insulate my attic (blown-in cellulose), cantilevers, and rim-joist. From the initial consultation with Adam to email follow-up, the project and my options were clearly explained. When I asked about putting a higher R-value in my attic, Adam provided the price but explained why it didn't make sense for me. I appreciated that he didn't try to oversell me. The proposal laid out everything they would be doing. The cost was reasonable. It wasn't the lowest bid, but was less than 50% of some other bids. The day of installation, the crew arrived a bit early. Throughout the install they were professional, kind, and clean. They protected the inside and outside of our house and vacuumed afterward. They conducted a blower door test at the end to quantify the difference made by air sealing. Within two hours of them leaving, we've already noticed a difference in our comfort and our A/C is not even running half the time it was before.

Josh was great with the estimate and the installation crew were clean and professional. Our upper level is now noticeably cooler on hot days. Well worth it.

They were on time with both calling and showing up to the job. They were polite and neat, placing plastic coverings over all areas they came in contact with and totally cleaned up after competing the job.
