We had Houle Insulation out to assess our attic's needs. We had insulation blown in 30+years ago…read morewhen we bought but then just forgot about it. The owner came out, inspected, explained in detail what we needed and gave us a quote. He also offered that Xcel was offering a rebate for some of the work we needed down and they would file all the paperwork for it. He was on time, personable and professional and the bid was reasonable and fair. We had the work done and the crew that did the work was on time, efficient, did an excellent clean up after the work was done. They did file the rebate and we received it in the time Xcel said it would take to receive it. It's rare these days to find a business that is honest, timely and fair with respectful crews but Houle Insulation was all of that and more. I would HIGHLY recommend them and in all honesty I am a hard to please customer because I won't "settle" for less than I expect. These guys are good. Because they are good they are busy so just know it may take a little longer to get scheduled but the wait is worth it! We have noticed a huge difference this winter. Heating bills are down and the house feels warmer.

I cannot speak highly enough of Houle Insulation. Today Todd from Houle came by my house, after…read moreinspecting the attic he told me that the insulation I already had was sufficient and installed properly. He said that he wouldn't take my money just to add to or replace what was already there. I was shocked, because another company had quoted me over $3800 recently without ever bothering to tell me I didn't need it. Even though I didn't hire Houle to complete any job, I happily give them 5 stars for integrity. I will be recommending them to anyone I know looking for insulation work.

Fabulous service and all done with a hand shake! Warren and crew were on time and done when they…read moresaid they would be done.

Guy that showed up was in a bad mood and kept complaining about his thermal camera app not working. Weeks later I was still waiting for an estimate to be emailed. Received a call from this company asking me if I wanted to get going on the project. I informed him that I never even received an estimate. He apologized and informed me that the guy at my house no longer works for them. So we set up a new appointment to get an estimate. The 2nd appt I was contacted 20min beforehand by Ryan letting me know that he is 90min away and won't be coming out because it is a waste of his time and his $50 in gas and it would be bad for the planet with his xtra emissions. So here I am 2 months later with no estimate and 2 failed attempts. I attached a photo of the voicemail I received just before my appointment for all of you reading this thinking, it can't really be this bad can it?

Their booking system was super easy, we requested a quote online & then were able to schedule via email; once we had our quote emailed to us, we could accept it via a link & set up a time for the actual install. We were lucky to squeak in on a cancellation, so we actually got our appointment set up really quickly. The team who came out are super friendly & efficient, it was nice to see that they even put drop cloths around to make sure our floors stayed semi-clean while they came in & out. With this drafty old house (1907!), we're really looking forward to seeing an improvement in our energy bills! We would absolutely recommend working with this company.

We recently worked with SNAP Construction after they reached out to inform us about rebate programs…read moreavailable through local energy companies, the federal government, and other sources to help improve home insulation. Layne came to our home and did an excellent job explaining the different rebate options, financing plans, and the entire insulation process. He made everything easy to understand and stress-free. Alexis and Tarik handled the actual work. They removed all of our old attic insulation, sealed any openings, and installed new insulation that helps repel mice and bugs. The next day, they returned to insulate the walls. They arrived on time, were respectful of our home and furnishings, and left everything clean when they were done. Overall, I'm very satisfied with the quality of work and professionalism from SNAP Construction. Highly recommend!

Peter who handled the job was always on time and not only did everything neatly but also explained what he was doing.

I would recommend Northwind Insulation to anybody that wants their home insulation done right.

I recently hired Abra Kadabra recently to help us get rid of a wasp nest from our backyard and I'm…read morethrilled to report the wasps are still gone and I would absolutely hire AK again. I used the "Projects" feature in Yelp to get a few bids and AK was competitive. When I scheduled the appointment to have someone come to the house, they got me on the books for the next day. My wasp problem wasn't an emergency situation, but it was great to know they could come out fast if needed. The specialist they sent out was great and he explained what he was going to do and what the expected outcome was. Within 30 minutes, he'd finished up and was gone. I hope I don't need them again, but I'd hire AK again if ever there's another pest issue!
