    Just amazing! I inquired about services on Wednesday, received a quote the next day, and by Friday Jonathan and his team were out here. They installed insulation in my backyard studio within an hour. They're the definition of fast and efficient. They cleaned up the area and were respectful of my mom's garden.

    We had insulation installed about a month ago, and we felt the difference immediately. Our heater hasn't turned on at all during the night, and it's definitely quieter inside. When Johnathan came over to give us an estimate, he was on time, communicated clearly, and never tried to upsell us. I also appreciated that he gave his honest opinion when I was deciding whether to clean out the attic before installing new insulation. In the end, we opted for attic cleaning, new insulation, and wall insulation injection. On installation day, his team arrived on time, Ralph explained the process again, and answered all my questions. They were respectful of our property and did a thorough cleanup afterward. After they patched the holes in the stucco, I painted over them in just 15 minutes, and now you can't even tell they were there. As a business owner myself, I found Johnathan's communication and professionalism truly inspiring. I highly recommend this company!

    Patched holes after blown insulation installed. I drew the grid since I installed another layer of drywall after.

    Super friendly service and better pricing than the popular insulation company I used in the past. They were able to accommodate me on my only day off which was a plus. They arrived on time and cleaned up after themselves. I had a garage wall insulated due to the noise and heat coming into the interior spaces. Noise levels have definitely decreased and I'm sure the heat/cold will be noticeable when the weather isn't so mild (75F as I'm writing this). A+ rating for friendliness and quality of job.

    Jonathan had responded to my Yelp request for a quote very quickly. He was the only insulation vendor to give me an upfront price per sq ft. All the other vendors wanted to come out and give a quote. Because of his straightforwardness and honesty, we went with him. He came out to assess the job and gave us the price for a few attic spaces. Within an hour he called to offer scheduling options. Jonathan and Ralph showed up this morning, as promised, to perform the work. Very very nice guys! They worked cleanly and thoroughly the entire time. Jonathan is a small business owner with integrity.

    I needed my attic insulated and am so happy I chose to go with Marathon. They provided an estimate based on photos and were by far the most reasonable of the few who didn't require a visit before providing me with one. I didn't want multiple people trampling through my house before I knew whether they were reasonable or not. They were the quickest to respond and answered my questions thoroughly without dodging the question of price. The estimate and final invoice was the same. No surprises. I'm glad I went with them in lieu of having a ton of people going to my house first to get a quote I may or may not like

    Before cleaning

    Marathon did an excellent job cleaning our attics after the fires. They were quick, reliable, clean, and efficient with both our times. We did a full removal and replacement of insulation, and radiant shielding, and did it at a better price than pretty much everyone else I called to get an estimate from. Well worth the price and value.

    When I see glowing, unblemished reviews on yelp or anywhere, I'm immediately very skeptical and prepare myself for disappointment, but my experience was no different than those reviews. My quote request went out via yelp's system and Jonathan from Marathon Insulation was first to reply. He answered all my questions clearly, and having spoken to 4 other reps, Jonathan's friendly/immediate/informative communication was unmatched. Jonathan came out for a free inspection exactly at the time scheduled and was in and out in a jiffy. Another inspection with Pure Eco left a very bad taste in my mouth, so the difference was night and day. Marathon's pricing was also very competitive and they're not the type of business to push for any sneaky add-ons like a car salesman. On the morning of service, Jonathan and 2 technicians showed up right on time and were very respectful that we had a newborn and let us take a moment to figure that out before starting their work. The job from start to finish was approx. 1.5 hours with plenty of photo evidence of their service. The crew tidied up well, but as constructive criticism, a quick vacuum would've been appreciated; no biggy. Overall, I wouldn't have any issue recommending Marathon Insulation.

    Jonathan and team made the attic insulation process very seamless and was flexible enough to clean up and install the insulation before and after my new heat pump installation. I met with Jonathan to give me an estimate and he was very diligent when he went up into the attic. Compared to the other companies that quoted my home's entire square footage, Jonathan noticed a section of my home's attic that was blocked off so he adjusted my quote down (since they can't install insulation there anyways). He also measured my home's square footage from the outside to confirm. When I set my new heat pump installation schedule, I contacted Jonathan and he was flexible enough to schedule Hazel and Angel to do the clean up first. It was during the summer August heat wave so they did their best to clean up old insulation for 6 hours. After the heat pump installation, Ralph and Pablo came to blow in cellulose insulation. They were careful to not damage the new air ducts. Overall, everyone kept my house clean which I appreciate with three small kids in the family. Working with Marathon was a great investment because with the new insulation, my home's internal temperature is maintained at around 70 degrees in the summer and winter. Before the new insulation, my home's internal temperature would go to the upper 80 degrees during the summer and upper 50 degrees during the winter without the HVAC on. I would highly recommended them.

    I was experiencing heat pockets in some parts of my condo and did a yelp search to locate a company to come and check my attic. Marathon was the first company to respond and Jonathan was able to come out asap within the week. He went up there and informed me of all the issues with my attic. His estimate was very affordable and they were able to work a few days later. Fast forward to today. They arrived promptly at 8 am and Ralph the lead was awesome from start to finish. Answered ALL my questions (i had a lot), and was super communicative. They were super accommodating to the fact my place is on the third floor and worked FAST and most of all CLEAN. There were no surprises and everyone seemed honest and trustworthy. From start to finish 2.5 hours for a 400sq foot attic. I'm absolutely amazed with the work and Ralph was able to take tons of before and after photos at my request and video. Definitely would recommend this company. Jonathan and Ralph and the team are honest, hardworking and great at what they do.

Their installers are delightful, helpful, and team players. A second pair of eyes are necessary during installation. Getting to the end product can feel like pulling teeth. extremely belabored.

In my case, I had to have several repeat site visits because what I communicated did not end up on the Estimate multiple times, so on the third time I actually needed to write down every item step-by-step to hold them accountable for the bottom line, which still needed to be tweaked in the end!! That being said, I will say the team is honest!! It was discovered during install that a large portion of my job was already insulated and could not be blown-in. My estimate was changed on-site and I was billed only for what I used. EXCELLENT business acumen. That's what 67 years in business will do. I absolutely will not hesitate to recommend them, however, I will advise caution with the sales steps of this business. perhaps it's best to request everything you want in writing down to the specifics, including square footages, that way there can be no misconception of the scope of work...

I found insulation labs and Ray came out for an estimate. He told me the same thing as ChatGPT did so it confirmed my suspicions. His quote was definitely on the expensive side compare to a competitors quote but he did mention that his quote is expensive because they use 12mm thick vapor barriers which is more resistant. The other competitor quoted me around half the price but for 6mm barriers. I again asked ChatGPT and it told me that 12mm is preferred because 6mm is prone to breaking once a contractor or someone go down to the crawlspace and when that happens it loses its purpose to control vapor. As a result I went with insulations labs and they spent a day putting it in. So far I haven't seen any issues and I believe they have done a good job from the pictures they shared

He took the time to reinspect the property, shore up any potential openings, investigate where it looked like foam had been chewed a bit, cleaned up the space, set out traps, and took time to explain his findings. He works with pest infestations and it is always great to see a company follow up on their one year warranties. Reason a star is missing (not due to Kyle): It has been just about a year since we hired Atticare. Last year we had the house painted, fumigated for termites, and then I realized we needed all of the insulation pulled and attic and crawl space cleaned. With the initial work - I would definitely get up in the attic and check all of it, as well as crawl under the house to verify the work, as I had to have them come back out two more times to complete the cleaning process. I would highly suggest the company invests in full portable lighting to see the entire area instead of using headlamps as too much can be missed. Insulation installation will be done at a later time. They did handle the initial cleanup quickly and it was appreciated.

I had a lot of wires and lines running in the attic and was worried some of them would get damaged (I know my fault and they should have been tacked up to begin with) but they worked around them and nothing was damaged. I was also worried about my roof since it was just done with lightweight concrete but no tiles were broken. They setup portable walls that were sealed with contractors plastic sheeting so any dust/contaminants were sealed away and directed at a HEPA filter. They finished the 1300 sqft attic and also the garage attic in about 6 hours and it looked perfect. I was very impressed. They even removed about 50ft of old HVAC piping from the garage attic (when they probably could have left it). I feel like it's very hard to find contractors along with their team that truly take pride in their work in this day in age but Leo and his team are the exception. It helps that it is a family owned and run business which mean they really care about their clients and also the work done. I will be recommending Leo Home Solutions to anyone that needs similar work done!
