"Avoid them...their own intall tech walked into my house, looked at the work order and -incredulously- declared to me that 'whoever wrote this up...they were probably new. But this isn't going to solve your problem". That ACTUALLY HAPPENED. Drying Company completely botched the job. They failed to finish the work (offered some laughable small credit instead) and then sought civil remedy for an amount I don't owe. Oh, and they kept the deposit. To summarize: THEY BOTCHED A JOB AND THEN SUED THEIR OWN CUSTOMER. I was going to let sleeping dogs lie but now I'm going to use every consumer digital megaphone available. Just look at the photo! They were hired to spray foam my crawl space!! That's what they left...They claim this crawl space has been mitigated for pipes freezing."

"Great. The first day was removal of the old materials and cleanup. The second day they installed the new liner, a large dehumidifier, and sealed access (from rodents). The third day an electrician came to do what we needed for the power and to install a controller on the wall. The gentlemen who did the work were punctual and polite and left no mess. Note that there is no category for "crawl space work" so I selected what seems to be the closest option."

"Terrible company. They are not upfront about cost of services and tack on additional fees without informing you. This is a company that is only after the money and hook you into a contract. The product is not even very effective. I have watched them perform the service via my home security system while I have been away and the yard guard is a joke. They casually apply it around the perimeter of your home, but isn't it intended to guard your entire yard? This company is a joke. Never again."

Tidewater Roofing has been in business since 1982 and remains family owned and operated to this day. Thanks to a great product and the support of our awesome customers, we have grown from a small family-run startup into one of the largest roofing companies in the area! We specialize in just about every roof style you’re likely to find on a residential or commercial building in Hampton Roads and parts of the Greater Richmond area. Flat roofs, sloped roof, 3-tab, architectural shingles, metal roofs, hip roofs, and more. If you want it, we can do it. We offer some of the best warranties in the industry, so you can feel good knowing that your investment is one that will last! We carry all the proper licenses, insurance and triple-check our work to ensure we meet or exceed all appropriate standards… and your expectations. When it comes to roofing and gutters, we’re the pros. Contractors license #2705 051867A.

"My wife and I were in need of a roof replacement. So, we spent time shopping around and getting different quotes. Eventually, I came across Tidewater Roofing. They sent Homer Gurganus out to give us a quote. He was very personable and polite. He gave us a reasonable quote compared to other quotes from different companies. So, my wife and I agreed to use their services because of Homer's great customer service, the price, and eagerness to replace our roof (surprisingly, my wife and I had this problem with other companies). However, this is where the pleasantries ended. The first sign of poor communication arose when it came to paying the down payment for the services. I waited over a week for someone to contact me to make the down payment. I eventually had to call them. I'm not sure if this was a misunderstanding on my part or a lack of communication on Tidewater Roofing's part. Either way, I was happy to start the process to replace our roof. Once the down payment was made, I was told that the production team would be in contact with me to schedule the roof replacement. I understand that this process could be longer due to a large number of jobs or could be delayed to weather however I figured someone would contact me within a week. I waited over a week and called them back. I was told that the production manager will give me a call. This continued for nearly two months. I was told either the production manager was on vacation (everyone deserves a vacation and that is not my issue) or he would call me back each time I called. Eventually, I emailed Homer about the issue we were having. After contacting Homer, my wife finally got a call from the production manager to schedule the roof replacement. On June 12, 2022, the roofers showed up at our house and proceeded to work on our roof. They worked exceptionally hard throughout the day to get the roof finished. For the most part, the work looks great however there are some issues with a few spots. I included a picture that highlights the worst area. The remaining issues are not as bad but aren't what we paid for. I mentioned this to Homer who had the guys sent out but they did not fix any of my concerns. A week later, I get my final invoice which is nearly $2000 over the initial agreement. In the contract, there is some subject to change in the agreed-upon price however I never approved this amount. In every home renovation that I know of, they get approval from the contractee before they add any additional charges. We were never given any options or warning about these additional charges. What seemed like a great decision to employ Tidewater Roofing became frustrating at the very least. I regret choosing them for our roof replacement. I left this same review on google reviews. The owner responded to me with "We apologize for the experience you had with your roof replacement. It is our understanding that our project manager is already scheduled to visit with you to inspect and address your concerns with the installation as well as review the terms & conditions of the contract you agreed to in regards to additional charges for wood replacement (which we significantly discounted from the amount stated in your signed contract)." I appreciate the quick response but this will be the second time someone has been sent out. The first time they did nothing to fix the issue nor did they come to talk to us. I understand that they "discounted'' the cost that was in our contract however no one discussed with us any additional repairs that needed to be done. If someone had come to talk to me before this additional cost was added, I could have either approved or denied the changes and we could have gone from there. There was zero communication from the beginning of our roof replacement."

Insulation questions, answered by experts

It depends on your needs and preferences, though many homeowners think it is worth it. Not only is blown-in insulation easy to install, but it is highly efficient with thermal regulation. Most types are mold-resistant, flame-resistant, insect-resistant, and, most importantly, completely safe.

The best type of attic insulation depends on where you live, your budget, and what stage of construction the attic is in. For example, if you're building a house, then structural insulated panels are a worthy investment since they're easy to install during construction and they're the most energy-efficient type of insulation.  

Additionally, if you live in a very warm climate, then you can potentially save quite a bit of money by opting for reflective insulation, which is more affordable than comprehensive insulation but doesn't work well for cool climates. Blown-in, loose-fill, and spray foam insulation are all great options for attics in moderate climates.

Expect your home insulation project to take between five and 12 hours to complete on average for batts or boards and two to five hours for spray foam or blown-in insulation. It might take longer if you need to remove your home’s existing insulation, you have a higher-than-average square footage, or accessibility is limited.

Yes. Bathroom insulation requires a vapor barrier. As a matter of fact, bathrooms and kitchens are the two areas of the home that should always get a vapor barrier because of the excess moisture. If you don’t have a vapor barrier in place in these rooms, the moisture will build up and eventually lead to mold and bacteria, not to mention the destruction of the insulation.

Winterizing your outdoor plumbing keeps your outdoor spigot from freezing and potentially bursting. This includes draining residual water out of the pipe and spigot after turning the valve off, then removing garden hoses and other attachments from the spigot before winter comes. Insulating the pipe that leads to the spigot and installing a freeze-proof faucet also help, as does installing an outdoor faucet protector.
