They always showed up exactly when they said they were going to and when they were done they cleaned up all work areas perfectly. They truly cared about doing a great job, and a great job they did. We have been toasty warm all winter because of their work. Highest recommendation!!!

We hired them in 2015 to do an energy audit and then to execute the changes needed to bring our 1930's (needs work) house up to more contemporary energy standards.

From the moment I met Bill, owner of the company, I was impressed by his kind manor, knowledge and…read morethe way he proposed installing in insulation. His price was fair and did not have to wait very long for the service. On the first day of work, Bill was there to introduce me to the four men who would be working on my home. Adam, Louis, Peter and Bob. These guys were amazing. They just about worked non stop. It was cold. It was physical. It was up in my attic. Yet, their good nature prevailed. They were polite as well. (Sidebar. One bonus. Adam, who was in charge of the crew, is tall and happily helped me change a few lightbulbs too.) This crew worked great together and did a great job. You could tell they liked one another and liked and respected Bill. Bill came back after the job was complete to make sure everything was done right. This company and all the people concerned are a class act...

Least expensive - fiberglass, next - a certain kind of foam, and most expensive - foam that covers everything including the rafters. I said give me the price for the best first. Also needed to include cleanup of the old insulation (messy) and a vent from the bathroom to the outside. To my surprise, it was under $500. We should have done it years ago! The attic was left cleaner that it was before they came! And, the house is warmer in the winter and cooler in the summer (old farm house.) Highly recommend this company!

I would warn anyone against using this company. They were very good with setting up the foam…read moreinstallation, but that is where the compliments end. They sprayed the foam in our attic at the end of September 2021. Unknown to me, they did not reattach the air conditioning feeds that they unhooked to apply the foam. More serious, they broke the drip pan which caused the air conditioner to leak when I turned it on for an extended period of time this June. The water eventually caused the ceiling drywall to fall. I called Foamco to discuss the situation. The owner would not even come and look at the damage. He completely blew me off, stating over and over that the work was done in September. He would not even acknowledge that it did not make sense that I would run the air conditioning in the winter long enough to notice the issue. On top of that, he was very rude. I would give him zero stars if I could, but I hope others will read this review and avoid this individual. This type of behavior is clearly how he keeps his bids low. It is easy when you will not stand by your work. He will be there until you pay him, but the customer service ends when he has been paid.
