    Fast patch

    The more I look at some of these reviews, including the pictures, the more upset I get. My work was done very quickly with no updates along the way and with no review of the final products. After spending over $13k+, I would have expected better service and support. Trust me with this experience and look elsewhere.

    I am very happy with the spray foam insulation provided by ARC Insulation! The ARC team was Professional, Respectful - and always Helpful. The Job I contacted ARC regarding insulating my basement exterior walls between the ceiling joists, (boxsills). I provided Ryan a basement floorplan with measurements, (ARC is able to provide estimates via Google). Ryan recommended the best materials to use and provided me a quote that listed the materials, who-did-what and the costs. Ryan also described how the job was costed. I chose to prepare the areas myself. Reference: Single story brick ranch with full basement. My Preparation All items/furniture were moved away from the wall 4-ft to 5-ft so that the ARC team would be able to maneuver a ladder around the perimeter of the basement. I removed the existing insulation (fiberglass 'bats'), vacuumed the areas and dry-wiped the sills /horizontal-surfaces - vacuuming didn't remove all the grit. I covered my items/furniture with plastic drop cloths. The Process The ARC team arrived a few minutes before the appointment, (Juan & Victor). We 'walked' the basement perimeter to view any potential challenges with the job - the guys answered ALL my questions. We found the best place to locate the ARC truck and route the spray hose, (150-ft). The team used painters' tape to protect selected areas and applied plastic sheet to the walls. ARC applied the insulation, trimmed the expanded foam where need, took-down and removed all the plastic and cleaned the work area. I wore a mask and glasses and viewed the process start-to-finish so that I could be available for any issues - Everything went smoothly!! We are very happy with the results - Thank You to the ARC Team.

    Highly recommend ARC! They did a great job! Got all my rebates and tax credit!

    Plastic and old insulation

    Because they were recommended for energy rebate, I went with them. However, I took off work for the scheduled visit and they never showed. When I called, they claimed they didn't have me scheduled, even though I paid a deposit with the date scheduled in the contract. Then they rescheduled and I took pictures of supposedly R49 work. This is not only not R49, there are huge gaps of missing insulations and old insulation is still sitting there, plus plastic in place of insulation! I'm out of nearly $4K! They also did not do blower test after installation. They were rushing and couldn't get the fan attached to the door, and did not properly seal around the frame. I got ripped off and I do not recommend! This company lacks integrity.

    For years I had to spend most of my winters on the second floor of my house because the first floor was so cold it was unbearable. My home was built before 1970 and so it had no insulation in the walls. I had called three companies before ARC and had given up on the idea. Last year I gave it one last shot and called ARC and they gave me a very reasonable price, their sales person was punctual, courteous, and to the point. The experience was great! I write now because I wanted to see what the difference would be and with all this snow and extreme bitter cold, it is night and day!!! It was unheard of being able to sit downstairs in the living-room without long socks and boots with a space heater at my feet. I now get to drink my coffee like a normal person. Thank you so much ARC!!!

    Tom came out to my house for an estimate on my already rehabbed/finished property that was insulated very poorly.

    Nobody enjoys pouring money into the parts of their home they never see -- attics, crawl spaces,…read moreand the like. 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.

    Randy and his team did a great job on our attic and crawl space. We had ice dams bad this winter,…read moreand my house looked worse than the neighbors'. 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.
