    We had Houle Insulation out to assess our attic's needs. We had insulation blown in 30+years ago…read morewhen we bought but then just forgot about it. The owner came out, inspected, explained in detail what we needed and gave us a quote. He also offered that Xcel was offering a rebate for some of the work we needed down and they would file all the paperwork for it. He was on time, personable and professional and the bid was reasonable and fair. We had the work done and the crew that did the work was on time, efficient, did an excellent clean up after the work was done. They did file the rebate and we received it in the time Xcel said it would take to receive it. It's rare these days to find a business that is honest, timely and fair with respectful crews but Houle Insulation was all of that and more. I would HIGHLY recommend them and in all honesty I am a hard to please customer because I won't "settle" for less than I expect. These guys are good. Because they are good they are busy so just know it may take a little longer to get scheduled but the wait is worth it! We have noticed a huge difference this winter. Heating bills are down and the house feels warmer.

    I cannot speak highly enough of Houle Insulation. Today Todd from Houle came by my house, after…read moreinspecting the attic he told me that the insulation I already had was sufficient and installed properly. He said that he wouldn't take my money just to add to or replace what was already there. I was shocked, because another company had quoted me over $3800 recently without ever bothering to tell me I didn't need it. Even though I didn't hire Houle to complete any job, I happily give them 5 stars for integrity. I will be recommending them to anyone I know looking for insulation work.

    We hired Gunner to re do our insulation in our 40 year old house to try and prevent pesky ice dams…read moreevery year. After looking at our attic they recommended removing all our insulation, sealing the attic space with foam and adding new cellulose insulation.. They were knowledgeable and professional in their evaluation of our ice dam issues and so we put our trust in their expertise. They weren't the least expensive but we wanted it done right. They were prompt. They were also very conscience of cleanliness in the house. They got all the work done as expected. I would recommend this company. They also expressed that they stand behind their work and if we have issues they will return to fix them

    Very disappointed with my experience from beginning to end but here's the most important…read more During the spray foam installation, overspray ended up on my granite countertops. What was most frustrating was not only the damage itself, but the company's unwillingness to take responsibility for it. (We have photos with time stamps to prove proper protection of the house wasn't done) I understand that accidents can happen on a job site, but I believe a professional company should stand behind its work and take responsibility when something goes wrong. Instead, I was left feeling like they were more concerned with denying that they caused the issue than with helping resolve it. The quality of the work and, more importantly, the way the situation was handled afterward left me very disappointed. I would strongly recommend discussing how they protect surrounding surfaces and how they handle accidental damage before hiring them.

    Let me start this review off with the fact that I've no issue with the work that was done. It was…read moredone to my satisfaction. ​My issue with this company is their extremely poor communication. I scheduled them to be here for my attic to be insulated on October 19- 21st. Wednesday the first crew showed up bright and early. Great! Thursday came and no one showed up OR called to let us know they weren't showing up that day. So we missed a day of work for nothing! The crew on Friday showed up and when they were finishing up we asked what time the next crew would be here and they said, MONDAY! So we have to rearrange another work day?? I totally understand getting behind on a project. What I don't understand is the lack of customer service in making a basic phone call!

    Don't waste your time. Bad communication and unreliable. No show/no call first scheduled…read moreappointment in November. Happened again in December. Bad enough I waited about a month from when I tried to schedule initially, then to get bumped out another month plus, and then here I am in the cold winter and I'm nowhere. Thoroughly frustrated and disappointed. Their excuse for the first no-show was that there was a nationwide shortage of insulation (again, after having to call and wait to find out why no one was at my house to install). I have since communicated with other installation companies and they know of no such shortage; in fact, most companies plan for busy fall appointments and stock up. So, take your chances or don't waste your time.
