    From initial communication and receiving a quote, to the explanation of the steps and process of insulation installation, I was very impressed with the professionalism and attention to detail from Chris and his team. I would absolutely refer AARCO to family and friends! I had about 1-2 inches of insulation left and AARCO brought it up to the standard amount needed and checked off some other needs in my attic. Chris is not only professional and considerate in working with the homeowner and resident pup, but I also noticed the kind and thoughtful way he communicates with his team members. I will always support a business that is run that way!

    Great quick and efficient job by Scott, Nick, and Chris. The job was done right 100%. If anyone is in need of attic insulation work to be done I strongly recommend Scott and his crew at AARCO. You can see in the pictures in the before and after along with pics where Scott sprayed insulation foam around conduit going from attic to main floor to prevent air drafts and created a attic door buffer using foam as a wall to keep loose insulation from falling through if attic door is opened. He also put a sheet of insulation above the attic door to prevent any drafts.

    After in my secondary attic area

    Scott was great to work with. He came out promptly when I called for an estimate. I had the estimate later that evening. The pricing was very fair. Installation day went great. Scott and his team laid down tarps and plastic to keep my space clean. Scott has me take a look as he finished each section. He also sent before and after photos of the work. highly recommend Scott and AARCO. He's honest, upfront, and does quality work.

While other assessors came across with a salesman approach, Jim was super practical and realistic from the start about my options. Like I was initially set on getting cellulose for my attic, but Jim pointed out some limitations given the age and construction of my home (condo built in the 1970s). He mentioned examples of older places with cellulose developing issues like sagging ceilings. No other assessor mentioned this, so deciding to work with Jim was an easy choice. He was honest and only recommended what worked best for my situation. As of writing this review, it's been over 2 weeks since his crew came and completed both air sealing and insulation. Before, my second floor would always had a 4 to 5 degree temperature difference from my main floor. Since their work, there is no significant difference. I even checked the temperature consistently for a few days just to make sure. Whatever they did, it's made a huge difference! Overall, I'm very happy with Jim, his team, and the quality of work they provided.

I am not sure how long ago my home was insulated, and it's a 100 year old house. Jaime and Alvaro were extremely professional, always polite and made sure everything was spotlessly clean when they were done.

    I cannot recommend Green Attic based on my experience…read more My project involved repeated scheduling problems, crews arriving with damaged equipment, incorrect materials, and equipment they did not know how to operate. There were multiple visits where the crew remained at my home for only a few minutes before leaving, resulting in another rescheduled appointment. This repeatedly disrupted my schedule and caused me to rearrange my commitments. During the work, my basement flooded after my sump pump was unplugged, my dehumidifier was damaged, spray foam contaminated personal property, including BMW seats I had stored in the basement, caulk was left on kitchen surfaces and furniture, and other belongings were damaged. Instead of feeling like my home was being protected during the project, I was left with significant cleanup and repair issues. After I reported the damage, I experienced confusion and conflicting information regarding how to pursue reimbursement. I was directed from one insurance source to another without resolution, and the process became frustrating and time-consuming. What disappointed me most was the lack of accountability. When problems occurred, I did not feel that responsibility was accepted or that meaningful efforts were made to fully resolve the damages caused during the project. If you are considering hiring Green Attic, I encourage you to thoroughly document your property before work begins, ask detailed questions about insurance coverage and claims procedures, and carefully inspect all completed work before signing off. My experience was stressful, costly, and left me with damage to my home and belongings that I am still working to resolve. Based on my experience, I would not hire Green Attic again.

I was first turned off by the gruff attitude I received over the phone, and numerous times to call to get any return call. After they Re worked our attic I am glad I did not give up. I could not be happier. I worried about my new roof being cut open to add 8 vents to my ranch home. The guy on the phone did the math with me and explained the codes and how he calculated the number of vents. This team even visited my home spent a lot of time taking pictures measuring, and looking for missing baffels in my attic soffit vents. It turned out we were missing almost everything to do it right. This proposal Engineer spent 45 minutes evaluating everything. Vaulted ceilings in 3 areas of my ranch home. Truly are experts, not just a name, its actually real honest and scientific expert type person. My heating bill in the first 3 months went from 230 per month to 89.00 a month, and the two rooms in front which needed heaters for the grandkids now stays at 68 min to 73 all the time. 8 vents 2 bathroom fans and re designed with proper size hoses 6 inches of blown in installation that from the side looks like my crew cut hair cut. How they got that to be perfect is awesome in itself. 9 vent baffles were installed, sealed all lights and any holes they found My roof vent from Storm Guard roof company had 2 areas where the roof vent went sideways and was never glued down. They repaired it too. Not one detail or little detail was missed. You can trust these people to do it Right. They did it all in 4 hours 15 minutes. I may go for the automatic Attic Fan in 2022 now, I just saved the money for that install in 4 months ROI is easy to justify. Thanks Guys, I was not a happy easy to get a long with guy at first too. both parents had passed away the week before, and I was knee deep in bills and paperwork. You recommend now, I will buy it. Trust is hard for me to give. Your team has earned it. Sandwich IL

One night the heat went out and the indoor temp dropped to 49 degrees, so that sealed the deal, we needed better insulation. They also encapsulated the crawl space with spray foam. Turns out there were mice living down there that we had no idea about. One even fell on a worker while they were pulling out the old stuff. Made sure to tell my wife who was on the fence originally about having this done. Big difference since then. No more mice sightings, heating bills are noticeably lower, and the house stays comfortable even when it's really cold outside. Solid work all around. I'd recommend them if you're dealing with the same issues.

But when those areas need attention, it's essential that the work is done right and by someone you can trust. Randy and the team at Paragon Insulation & Services delivered an experience I'd recommend to anyone. My attic was poorly ventilated -- damp, musty, and overdue for attention. After deciding to bring in a professional, Randy came out to my home, thoroughly assessed the problem areas, and put together a detailed quote on the spot. The scope of work included removal of the existing insulation, air sealing around all attic entry points, sanitizing, air baffle installation, and installation of new Weather Blanket cellulose insulation. The new cellulose achieves an R-value that meets or exceeds Illinois code requirements. Paragon's pricing was competitive, though admittedly a bit higher than some of the larger corporate outfits. What made the difference was Randy's willingness to walk me through the entire plan and clearly explain what justified the investment. That transparency, combined with the comfort of working with a local, owner-operated business, made the decision easy. The crew came in and completed the job in about half a day -- fast, efficient, and clean. The entire process was documented with photos and videos, all of which were included with the final invoice. While up in the attic, they even took the time to correct some substandard work a prior contractor had left behind on my bathroom exhaust fans. I couldn't be happier with the results. I've already noticed a meaningful improvement in temperature consistency and overall comfort throughout my home. If you're looking for a trustworthy, professional insulation contractor, I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Paragon Insulation & Services.

I told the rep that other companies have inspected our home and stated that our walls are suitable for blown in insulation. ARC never came to visit our home - while their competitors did this as a standard account management cycle. Fast forward to this week, I was ready to sign the agreement and pay the deposit - the rep asked me to confirm the 2x4 framing. I asked him how he wanted me to do this - he suggested I drill pilot holes in each wall or pay a 3rd party to do this and that ARC was not responsible for verifying the details of our home. Not responsible for validating a critical project detail before having you customer pay thousands of dollars?! Extremely poor customer service and frankly, a lazy sales team.
