Really pleased with our service with heatbusters! They were response and helpful. Jim wasn't pushy and didn't try to rush us into a decision. We had a strict budget and Jim helped work with us to make sure we maximized our return. Definitely recommend! read more

Summers in Texas are an absolute killer. I had The HeatBusters crew come in to install a radiant barrier and an attic fan, plus do a duct seal for all AC ducts. Even as they were doing the work, I could immediately feel the difference. They had a very professional crew, and it took only about half a day for them to finish the installation. The entire process was very smooth, from the sales process to the installation, and they took the time to explain the product and process. Additionally, I had a tight timeline I was working against, and they were moving things around to make it work. I definitely will recommend them to anyone looking for a radiant barrier install company. read more

Everything about working with Jim and the Heatbusters was easy, leaving me a satisfied customer. First, the turnaround time for an estimate was quick. And more importantly, Jim heard me when I said what I wanted--there was no pressured upselling. I cannot tell you how happy this made me. Scheduling was flexible and was driven by my availability. And then the work itself was completed within the estimated window of time by a team of respectful installers. Quick clean-up and then a follow-up phone call to confirm satisfaction with the work--all around professional. Highly recommend. read more

The Heatbusters recently installed a new radiant barrier in my attic. I had one installed just after the company opened in 2007 and decided it was time for it to be updated. It has worked great for me over the years, lowering my electric bill, and helping to keep the house cool. His crew arrived on time and completed the project in less than half a day. It was easy working with Jim and he made the whole process seamless. I highly recommend them. read more

I've used Heatbusters twice and both times had great results. They installed a radiant barrier that dropped the temperature in my attic about 60 degrees. Great guys to work with. read more

My experience could be the exception but I was tricked by the many 5-Star reviews and wanted to help navigate people away from making the same mistake. I have text/email interactions confirming everything below as accurate. The summary is that if you do work with Heatbusters you should confirm square footage as they over quoted my space by 30%+, broke/lost items then lied about them, fried my HVAC leaving me without air and so on so be warned. I lost a days worth of work which I outlined below and my proposal presented to Jim (owner) was to refund their profit from my job as I felt if I lost a day of wages that Heatbusters should too and for Heatbusters to keep the cost of the materials. He opted to screw over the customer, pocket the profit and say tough luck so my advice is to spend the $500 extra and not work with the cheapest provider. Days Prior- Told to expect HeatBusters between 8am-8:30am 4:52am - Received text letting me know HeatBusters will be there at 10:30am 7am- Received text letting me know HeatBusters is on their way 7:30am- Received call from HeatBusters that mistakes were made and back to the 10:30am 10:15am- Message saying in route 10:30am- Arrived and begun work 10:45am- Argue with me about the square footage to be done as the invoice states 1200 sq ft. but living area. Its connected to our living area and has insulations in the garage so assumed it was the entire house. Heatbusters reevaluated their original estimate and revealed they were planning to overcharge me by 400sq ft so it worked for them to do the garage now. 11:45am- Asked to inspect work and pile in the front and not evenly spread at 18" in multiple locations so asked to honor the work 12:30pm- Asked to review the second attic and pointed out that again the work was not done to 18" where I was explained that it was due to soffit vents which I explained we did not have and to fill 1pm- Asked to review the first and second again which I had issues but gave up due to not being able to get back far enough and fighting with HeatBusters 1:15pm- Heatbusters left 1:30pm- I clean up missed insulation in the bathroom and driveway 3pm- Call Heatbusters and explain my fan is not working for the AC and explained it could not be them or anything they have done. 3:05pm- Call AC companies to try and get people out as the house is 82 degrees and difficult to work 3:30pm- Was told by an AC guy to check to see if it was a switch that got turned off as he serviced the unit 2.5 weeks ago and everything was fine 3:45pm- Use our improper ladder against the walls to get up and scrape the walls trying to solve 5:30pm- Heatbustesr calls and says it may in fact be something they did with blowing a fuse and will send someone out that is an "electrician" 5:50pm- Heatbusters arrives and sees a blown fuse but did not bring the right fuse. Explains that a 5 amp will be fine instead of a 3 amp. Explain I am uncomfortable changing unless he is an electrician which he admits he is not. So I google if you can switch them out and the first results explains It is a definite "NO" and can cause even more damage 6pm- Heatbusters agrees to go out and get a 3 amp switch 6:40pm- AC guy calls saying he has fuses if they guy can't find them but I call Heatbusters and nobody answers so at a loss of what to do 6:50pm- Heatbusters arrives back to switch out the amp and then lies about losing a screw to put the front of the unit back on and tells me there were only 3 when we have the HVAC serviced every 6 months and had a tech out in July. 7pm- Miss dinner/drinks with friends that had planned for weeks due to dealing with HeatBusters so my day and night were ruined. 7:15pm- Heatbusters leaves 8:30am- Heatbusters calls and gets a tech out to the unit to fix the air that will be off for 24hrs at our house 1pm- iAir tech arrives fixes it promptly and restores air to the home. read more

Jim came out from Heat Busters and assessed my garage insulation needs. We ran with blown in insulation in a 1/3 of the attic and blown insulation through the finished walls and front garage supports. The job was done swiftly with Jim running the hose end and Todd feeding the machine fresh bags of fill. All said in done I paid a great price on a fantastic job that brought my temps down by four degrees inside. I'm impressed. Now that I installed a DIY Mr. Cool 24K BTU A/C unit I have that baddest 3 car garage in the hood! Thanks guys! read more

See all

Very happy with this company. I was searching around for a while for an insulation company to offer a quote on my home remodel and everyone was "booked out for 6 weeks" and seemed uninterested in my "too small of a job". Jim was able to meet me in a timely manner and he was willing to be creative and accommodating with my scheduling and think outside of the box for my needs. We ended up not having all the work completed that he initially quoted me and only scheduled to have the old 60 year old attic insulation removed and new insulation blown in. His crew was on time, clean, and did a great job. Will certainly be working with The Heat Busters again on future remodels. read more

I am so happy I decided to work with Jim! I live in a new construction house that had an uninsulated garage facing west. Jim insulated my garage, Installed a radiant barrier on my garage door, fluffed up the insulation in the rest of my attic, and installed a solar attic fan. His prices were the best I found, he was quick to respond, and very speedy. And it's already so much cooler inside my house! read more

Jim does an outstanding job! He knows his stuff when it comes to insulation and radiant barrier. Quality work from a quality guy. Highly recommended! read more

Our house had extremely minimal insulation when we bought it late 2020. Once the summer started creeping in, we knew we'd have to make some drastic changes. Jim came by and toured my scorching attic, and taught me a few things about what we had (a converted loft), and what we didn't have (adequate ventilation and virtually no insulation). We worked up a plan and two weeks later, a wonderful and friendly crew arrived bright and early to help my ugly hot attic! They removed all long-forgotten trash, the old insulation; they deodorized and sealed all of the air ducts and cracks to seal in the air; they installed radiant barrier, and about a foot or more of beautiful, fluffy insulation. We also have two solar-powered attic fans and four additional soffit vents. Our electric bill has dropped by half--and maybe more in the future, as we've just done a few repairs on our HVAC system as well. Our time here post-insulation has been so noticeably comfortable; I can't imagine how stuffy and humid our poor old home would be if they hadn't brought the joy they did to us! I will forever appreciate The Heat Busters and all of their incredibly hard work! read more

We have a new home and I asked Todd to come out and look at what if anything can be done to improve the insulation. He's a great guy very honest and will not try to scam you he's very professional and looks at everything to do the best for you. read more

Excellent work! Jim and his team installed both their radiant barrier and additional insulation and we are extremely happy with the results this far. The crew was friendly, professional, efficient, clean, and had a sharp attention to detail. I feel completely ready to face the upcoming summer head on! And I already am seeing results with the recent cold weather we just experienced. Looking to get a couple of solar attic fans installed as well here in the next several months. I'd highly recommend them read more

Jim was quick to come out and provide an honest estimate of what we ONLY needed. They installed the radiant barrier and 2 solar fans in our attic which helped cool our house down dramatically without having to turn the thermostat down. I HIGHLY recommend Jim and his Heat Busters team!! Thank you, Jim! read more

We had them install insulation in our attic and fans on our roof. One of the locations on the roof leaked within a week of the fan install and we had a big water patch on the garage ceiling. They came out and "fixed" it and told us to call them back if it still leaked. A few months later the water patch on the garage ceiling is getting bigger. We keep calling and leaving messages and no one calls us back. They even gave us an appointment which was a no-show. (No call either) They did sloppy work and are not bothered to even rectify the work and the damage caused read more

Heat Busters did a fantastic job! Very quick appointment. Great customer service. Locally owned. Could not be happier. :)

I'm updating to make clear that I used the Heat Busters in Dallas, TX. I lived there at the time.
