It's hard to explain how much this guy messed up our house. If you are even considering calling him for a quote put down your phone and smash it with a hammer -- it'll save you money. He showed up late and went home early. Every day. He left open our roof and it rained inside the house. He hired a terrible subcontractor who left beer bottles hidden in the rafters. He sprayed gunk all over our walls. What was supposed to be done in a week went on for a month. He ran out of money and asked us to front him for materials. His truck broke and I had to hire a generator for him. And then I caught him lying about how much foam he'd put into the roof. So he had to come back. And now, even a year and a half later, I'm still having insulation problems that go back to the terrible, terrible work done by this guy. My wife considered taking him to small claims court but we realized we'd never see a dime -- even if we won. He's broke, and he's broke because he blows jobs like ours again and again. Seriously: Run. read more

tl;dr skip to the numbered part below! Originally i was not going to write a review, but it seems each day i find something else. So this may be long but i want to cover everything. Contacted via email, responded over the weekend got a basic estimate and said he would come take a look, to confirm. All seemed great Came when he said he would, looked over the project, installing a drywall ceiling and fiberglass insulation for the ceiling in a garage. Explained i wanted the garage door angle iron dropped and the drywall slid in to place. Said that is the only way he does it. Explained the ceiling joists were not evenly spaced, ranged from 20 to 22 inches on center. Again he said no problem. Said he should be able to start the next Thursday, i said when ever is fine. That Thursday i receive an email around 1:00 PM saying how about Saturday. I respond saying fine, but Monday is fine as well. I do not hear back, but 9:30 AM on Saturday a truck pulls up. Had i known i would have had he garage emptied and ready for them to work. Together we empty the garage quickly and they start to work. First problem they brought 15 inch wide insulation the joists are spaced further than that. Well the spacing has not changed since you looked at it 6 days ago. i agree to have it laid perpendicular to the joists. (should have quit while i was ahead) . A warm day so i bring cold water throughout the day. Through out the day they borrow my tools to work Fast forward 6 hours later they are calling it a day. Again i help putting everything back even. Jaime says he will bring back a pressure washer to clean my drive way where the truck leaked oil/hydraulic fluid. (before that there was not a single oil stain on my driveway) Once they leave i look there are numerous drops and at least 5 puddles the size of my foot or bigger (size 10 shoes, and yes i mean puddles) i put down some absorbent materials and treat to help prevent to much of a stain, and to make it easier to clean up for them. I also find a handful of drywall screws in the driveway. They said they would return Monday at 8:00AM, I wake up to make sure the garage is empty and ready for them to work. Some time between 9:30 and 10:00 AM they arrive. Different truck (yeh! hopefully no additional stains, no pressure washer either., but i think i am ok with it because they probably would have done more harm then good.) They leave for lunch so i decide to see how they are doing, and notice for one garage rail they put the drywall in as i requested and they said they would, but for the other 2 they just drywalled around the angle iron leaving numerous opening between the insulated and uninsulated area. i also notice huge gaps around outlets and light fixtures. No rhyme or reason to the screwing of the dry wall. 1/3 of the screws still sitting above the drywall service. Areas sagging because not enough screws in areas. Many additional screw wholes with no screws. I question first about the rails as to why it was done that way, they said it was to hard to reattach the spring, they were not strong enough to stretch it. Now first of all i think anybody who has ever done anything with a garage door knows when the door is open there is very little spring tension and that is when you need to work with the springs, for anybody who does not know how to work with garage doors there is this real handy thing called the internet. At this point i realize they have no idea what they are doing, i start thinking i should just fire them now, unfortunately i am a nice guy and tell them i will put the drywall in between the angle iron and the joists myself. (a fat, out of shape desk jockey all by myself, next day it took me about 3 hours) So they finish drywalling and the insulation, do a quick sweep and say they are done, i gave them a check for the full amount with out looking so they would leave, they left so fast i am surprised they did not spin their tires. ok, so since they have left the list below are all the faults i found. 1. Did not drywall around the garage door angle iron as they said they would, leaving the garage door crooked so it scraped the paint of the front of the door rubbing on the opener track, and would not close all the way. 2. Only reinstalled one light fixture, if i ever find the bulbs i will finish, but i have to wonder if did such a poor job putting the fixtures back they were afraid they would catch on fire if they put the bulbs back in. 3. Drywall screws above the surface, ones that never made contact with wood, on the garage floor and again in the driveway. Anybody know how much 19 inch performance tires cost,.....alot. 4. My tools, god knows where they put them or did they just take them, It has been a week still haven't found them. read more

tl;dr: DO NOT HIRE I called Jaime because he was recommended by a friend. We scheduled a visit for an estimate. He never showed up. I should have dropped him right there... We rescheduled the visit for the next day. He showed up 15-20 minutes late. We told him we were going to put on a new roof and asked him to spray from the outside while the roof was off. He said no problem and that he could do the roof for us as well. We decided it would be easier and faster to have him do the whole thing. He told us the entire job-5" of spray foam throughout our roof and putting on a new roof-would take about 4 to 5 days. He asked for a 50% deposit on the job, which was fine. We agreed on a start date. This project was a disaster before it even started. We got a call from Jaime that he couldn't cash our check because of some new requirement at his bank (which seemed like a bunch of bs to me) and asked us to give him a few grand in cash. We trusted him because of the recommendation from our dear friend. We shouldn't have. From there the 4-5 day job turned into a month. Every day there was an excuse why he didn't show up or couldn't work or whatever. One day he said he couldn't come over because he had to finish another job or the guy was going to sue him. Now I get why. Over that month they maybe worked 6-7 days, none of them full days. When they did show up, they were totally unprepared. We spent half the time running around getting materials for them just to try to keep them working. They tore our existing roof off and left the trash and debris all over our property. They left our roof open for almost a month and every time it rained, it poured into our house (we weren't living at the house full time yet so we weren't always there to know). We went up and tried to tarp it ourselves, but we suffered a ton of damage to the interior of our house because of them. We had a huge mold bloom throughout the house and had to tear out tons of wood and drywall immediately so we didn't get sick. After they tore the old roof off, Jaime parked his giant spray foam truck in our yard and left it there for 2-3 weeks. I was on the verge of having it towed. There were a million problems with his truck so he never sprayed any foam until the very end of that period. We went up and checked their work on a day they weren't there and discovered that he only sprayed 2" of foam (supposed to be 4-5") and left part of the roof completely empty. He had his guys seal that part of the roof up fast as a way to hide it. We had to have them open it back up and put more foam in. Jaime had some excuse. Jaime's excuse about the foam was that his rig was busted and he didn't have the money to fix it. He asked us to give him more money. We told him no way. We were pretty desperate to have the job finished by that point so we rented him a generator which he used for one afternoon at our house and then presumably took around to other jobs for the next four days. After Jaime spray foamed our roof, we returned to find spray foam EVERYWHERE. He had put no protection on the exterior or interior of our home and had done a horribly sloppy job. Our yard and the entire inside of our house was coated in spray foam. Our 90-year-old wooden walls were coated in spray foam. Our floors. Our tools. Our shower. Our stone fireplace. Everything. He then told us it was our fault for having a crappy house. We hung on so long because we were just trying to not lose on the deposit we gave him. After a month, tons of water damage, spray foam everywhere, trash everywhere, we finally fired him. We went up on the roof to find a bunch of our tools we thought had gone missing, empty beer bottles, crappy carpentry, and about half the spray foam Jaime was supposed to put in. I began the process of filing a civil claim against Jaime. But I quit because I knew I would never see my money. read more

I am a big fan of spray foam but have heard some of the guys here in the Hudson Valley were difficult to work with. I called AB spray foam in for a rushed remodeling project and was impressed with the work/ experience. It's owner operated fyi. Jaime picks up the phone, he also comes for the install. Did exactly what was described. Highly recommended. read more

Great attic and basement insulation job that was completed in one day. Highly recommended!

AB Spray foam did a great Job on our 3bdrm. 2 bath. newly constructed house. The price was reasonable and they made sure to cover/protect everything while working. I'm definitely going to use their services for a couple upcoming projects. read more

AB Spray foam worked with us insulating a complicated attic structure that included dormers. Honest, pleasant to deal with, returned to advise and make a small correction. Happy for the referral, would use again. read more
