We have yet to see any energy savings, as promised on their website. Taking weather changes into account which was about 25% colder so far, we also used about 25% more gas to heat the home at the same settings. On the plus side, the room above the garage and second floor bedroom below the attic are more comfortable and less drafty, so we 'll keep tabs and hopefully we'll see better results in the summer with a/c usage.

And the results of the work done by Insulwise is now clear. In the past, we could feel the cold coming right through our walls which meant putting on additional clothing even as we turned the thermostat up. That is no longer the case. Strikingly, we can touch the inside walls, facing the outside of the house, and not feel the cold at all. There are no longer cold spots in the house that we avoid. We have turned down the thermostat and still the house is much warmer than it was last winter when it wasn't nearly as cold outside. My daughter and son-in-law noticed the change immediately when they visited and commented on it. In summary, the work done by Insulwise did exactly what we had hoped for. In terms of economics, we are in our 70's and may or may not be here long enough to recoup the savings on our heating bills. But we are so much more comfortable now than we were in past years that we will never regret getting this done; our only regret is not getting it done sooner. Thank you so much, Insulwise!

Then they worked to get me on the schedule, especially touching winter, as they're all booked up. When the crew arrived, so friendly. We had covered much of our rooms with plastic, but they brought drop cloths and even more plastic. These insulators took good care to cover all the surfaces, even using painter's tape to carefully apply to the baseboards, eliminating all chance of dust! The holes are closed up so nicely and smooth, it will be so easy to paint. The house is nearly just as clean as before this major project happened in mere hours!! If your home is drafty, do yourself a favor, and schedule an estimate. Never been excited to see a utility bill before, and I'm looking forward to it reducing!!

I would not recommend JD Gales contracting due to their poor management and scheduling skills. I…read morecannot comment on their construction skills because they cancelled our project after delaying us for almost a year. We had a signed quote from JD dating back to November of 2021, we were informed that the project would be completed by July of 2022, and likely early in the spring of 2022. When spring arrived the project was continuously delayed. He would tell us it would be starting "soon", then something would delay him. He would not return my calls, and he would not inform me of the delays unless I got him on the phone. I understand that delays in construction happen, but when a project gets delayed for over 6 months at some point it becomes a management problem, not a "construction delay".

That being said, I was positively giddy after standing in the bedroom that the guys from Steel City sprayed for me. An unbelievable difference. The room was always cold, and it's not like it wasn't insulated. A previous owner had put 10 inches of blown in fiberglass in the ceiling and 4 inches in the walls. During my renovation I took it all out and was nervous that I was just throwing money away by replacing insulation with new insulation. It will now be the way I do it from now on. Steel City sprayed 8 inches of foam on my ceiling and 4 inches in my walls. The foam was the open cell variety. I was again worried because I had heard the closed cell was better. But, it was more expensive, and money was tight. No regrets. The day after the work I stood in a room that, despite having no heat and being closed off from the rest of the house (dust barrier), was just as warm and cozy as the rooms where the heat was on. It was completely different from the room that became blisteringly hot when the sun came out and frigidly cold when it set. In the interest of full disclosure Jon, the owner-operator of the company asked me to write this review. I'm doing it because in addition to being impressed with the change it has made to my new bedroom, Jon and his crew couldn't have been more nice and just plain fun to be around. Just straight up professionals who knew how to make the most of their day. I'm no expert on all the different foam they can spray, I can only speak for the open cell, but it certainly is worth going this route vs. the other options for insulation.
