When we bought our first home, our inspector told us the #1 thing we needed to get was new attic…read moreinsulation and ducts. He told us to go get 3-5 quotes, and suggested not to chose the cheapest or the most expensive. As a very thorough person but first-time homeowner, I researched all I could about attic insulation, had my energy company come out and do an energy assessment (highly suggest this, it's very educational and CoServ does it for free), then had 12 (yes, twelve) companies come out for quotes. Not only was Loi the cheapest of 11 (1 company never sent me a quote), including beating out my Home Warranty company, he was the only person that was 100% looking out for my interests. He was completely transparent about his process, labor, and materials. Most importantly, he didn't try to upsell me on more expensive options by lying or putting on a show. I'm not accusing the other companies of overemphasizing the effectiveness of radiant barrier or foam, though taking 3 hours to use lasers to develop a plan to completely revamp the layout of my duct system was a bit over the top, I'm just saying that Loi was the only person who tried to convince me NOT to get the higher end options for diminishing returns (he also explained why). Loi took the time to sincerely educate me about my new home and while we only met for 15-20 minutes, it didn't feel rushed like with other companies, and not dragged out like with others. The accurate information he provides, in addition to not using strong-armed sales tactics like trying to close with repeated attempts at locking-in an appointment, are the highlights of NRG Pros, along with the simple fact that he didn't lie to my face. Some instances of him looking out for me, instead of his bottom line: For example, my roof has an overabundance of both ridge and soffit vents. I had multiple companies try to sell me unnecessary attic fans which would have caused my ridge vents to start drawing in air, rather than passively letting it out. This would actually have reduced the quality of my attic ventilation rather than improve it. Another example was installing an attic tent, instead of charging me $500, he told me to get one at Home Depot for $50 and showed me how I would do it myself. Yet another example, instead of charging me $250, Loi offered for free to patch up a hole I had in one of my soffit vents where birds and bugs were using to access my attic. One last example, Loi was the only company that even offered to check window and door seals. Because of the aforementioned energy assessment, I already knew if I had leaks. He correctly pinpointed the poor seal at my front door and, you guessed it, replaced it for free. Loi is professional, thorough, and honest. I hope I can save some of you the time and effort of gathering quotes and listening to (mostly insulting) sales pitches. I honestly would have went with Loi even if he gave me the most expensive quote, but that's a contradiction, it's just not in his nature. Imagine a world where people were more like him, what a world that would be... I'm going to save you some time, money, and stress. You need to go with NRG Pros.

I liked the fact that the explanation was simple and easy to follow. The problem was minor, and this provided me with some relief. In general, the visit was well-organized and professionally managed.

Novastar Construction did an amazing job on my bathroom remodel. Michael and Ben were great to work…read morewith throughout the entire process. They transformed an old 1960's bathroom into a modern, sleek, and minimal masterpiece. I was originally quoted a two week timeline, and they actually finished the project ahead of schedule, which is pretty unheard of in construction. Not only did they finish early, but I also added two small additional projects that were not part of the original scope, and they still completed everything ahead of the original timeline. The quality of the work was excellent, and anything I wanted adjusted or done differently was addressed quickly and taken care of without issue. I would definitely recommend them.

Very disappointing experience. It has been over a month since I first contacted HBR, and I am still…read morewaiting for a basic estimate. Throughout the process, I received multiple commitments on timing that were not met, and many messages and follow-up requests went unanswered. Communication remained inconsistent even after the owner became involved. I understand that schedules can be busy, but clear communication and follow-through are essential. Unfortunately, that was not my experience. When a company cannot reliably provide an estimate or respond to basic inquiries, it raises concerns about how they would manage a larger project. There are many quality contractors who value their customers' time and work hard to earn their business. Based on my experience, HBR did not meet those expectations.

At no point was there a push to sell or upsell. His main focus was to ensure that the customer got the most from his visit. Will be using their services to fix some of the issues identified. The duct cleaning was scheduled for a different day. The techs arrived early and were very efficient and thorough in the job they performed. The work and cleanup was completed to my satisfaction. The pricing for the duct cleaning is competitive in comparison to other companies in the market. I highly recommend the services of Climate Doctors for your duct cleaning and sanitation. The superior ratings online are totally reflective of my personal experience with them.

YHE actually should stand for Your Home Exploiter…read more I have only one regret in this life, and that is letting this company into my home. From the very beginning they rush you, make you sign something to only work with them (sketchy, red flag) and then they do mediocre work. They're going to take advantage of you and your home when you're in an emergency type situation. As immoral as they come. They messed up my bathroom tile, then made me feel bad when I asked them to do it right. As if I was asking too much when they didn't do it right in the first place? They also installed a random circular silver drain in the shower, when I asked for and ordered a square gold drain. Hello? The owner, Michael, simply chalked it up to "hiring workers that don't speak English." If that doesn't tell you all you need to know... The attention to detail and doing a decent, not even good, job is just not there. They didn't finish caulking behind the toilet or on top of the counter. They scratched the paint off of 3 doors, and refused to compensate or correct. They got dirt all over the walls and even got paint on my front door and hallway tile. They littered cigarette butts and a giant sponge (???) in my front yard. They left an entire garbage can of trash in my front yard. They even messed up my garage door, when that is an area of the house they were NOT authorized to do ANY work in. Who knows where else they were messing around while I wasn't home? When I asked them to remove the master toilet, I specifically and repeatedly asked them to cover the hole in the ground. When I arrived home two days later, I walked in to find the sewage hole completely gaping open, releasing toxic sewage fumes into my home and bedroom. Unbelievably thoughtless, careless, and downright hazardous/dangerous. They started trying to charge us hundreds of dollars at the end for things we already discussed, and then when we tried to talk to the owner, he basically said he'd just hand us over to his lawyer. He knows he is taking advantage of us, so he didn't want to discuss the money details with us. You can see in the attached videos/photos that they also threaten to take legal action against us, should we post an honest review. They don't have any basis to do so, but just want to scare customers into silence. That's why they don't have any other bad reviews on here. It's too late for me, but please, save yourself. Find another company.

The link discusses the windows in great detail: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vz_F-v2bvvs Statewide Energy Solutions advised us in the contract that it would be 4-8 weeks for the manufacturing of the windows which worked great for our schedule. Mark called to inform us of the date for installation. We have 28 windows so it was a 2+ day job. Everything was done professionally and cleanly. We felt very comfortable with Scott and his crew while they were installing the windows. Adam was available if needed but once the pricing was agreed upon there wasn't a lot of need for our interaction with a few exceptions. Adam responded promptly when text or called.
