They did a great job. Were very responsive to my emails and questions. Coordinated well with other contractors that were doing work. Cleaned up after themselves. They did spray foam in the walls, roof, basement, and waterproofed the crawlspace.

Very well. They arrived on time, set up the blower and inspected all areas of the house. I received an itemized list of recommended improvements with cost estimates, two weeks later.

Building Energy preformed and energy audit for me. They recommended doing work that made no impact on the efficiency of my home. Their bid for the work was twice other bids. I had another licensed contractor do the work for $3,000. When the results showed no change, they suggested I give Building Energy another $4,000 to insulate other areas of the home, because I shouldn't have used another company. 
They just want to the work and want to over charge me for the work. 

Response from Building Energy
"We are sorry to hear you did not feel the work that was recommended in your audit report would have a significant impact on the efficiency of your home. As a member of our Efficiency Vermont's Efficiency Excellence Network (EEN), we understand which measures will save you the most money and we pay attention to important health and safety details like air quality and moisture control. We stand behind our comprehensive reports, our BPI certified auditors, and the quality of our work. Warm Regards, Building Energy"

Smart alec, know-it-all foreman. Tried to get us to remove vermiculite that they failed to find despite a full two-day inspection. Took much longer than estimated. Aside from the foreman the crew consisted of nice guys, and the Boss overrode the foreman on the vericulite, which they ultimately removed. I would definitely look for another provider, as this experience left a really bad taste in my mouth.
