I am so glad we found this company! I recommend them without any hesitation. For context, our job…read morewas blow-in insulation for a large ranch house, screened porch, and garage. Our experience with Dale Thomas Insulation & Drywall was fantastic. Jacob is the manager of the location in our area, and he was very responsive - answering my questions along the way. Based on our conversations, I have full confidence that he was up front with me on all details. He was clear about the price (which was a great value in my opinion), the scope of the job, and timing. They completed it on the day promised. I appreciated so much meeting him (and his family) in person and would definitely invite him back. Anytime I can hire a family business, that is my preference, and for this job I was not disappointed. Jacob also mentioned the ability to do remote estimates if you can video-chat and take your phone into the attic (or to the workspace) and I thought that was a neat option.

Recently a company connected with Dominion contacted my husband and me to offer a home energy…read morereview and estimate on weatherizing our house in time to take advantage of the tax credits available until the end of the year. Since we did not know enough to evaluate the proposal he provided after his review, we talked with someone we knew who was volunteering with a climate advocacy group in this area. He suggested we contact Mohammed at Home Energy Solutions for an energy audit. We did so and were able to schedule it very quickly with Mohammed spending a great deal of time doing a thorough inspection of our three attics and our many windows and doors. We were surprised at just how bad the situation was in general air leakage, in the ductwork, and in the insulation over one part of our house where, from the pictures Mohammed took, it looked like a raccoon had gotten into the attic and torn up the insulation. When Mohammed sent us a contract to fully insulate our three attics, removing the insulation in parts, sealing the edges and around lights, and more, and we had a ton of questions, he promptly responded with clarifying information and willingness to adjust the work and add on caulking our windows and weatherstripping a door and more. Also, the price was most reasonable -- significantly less than the other company with more items included. He then scheduled the work at our convenience and his team of three, led by Eric, arrived promptly at 8 AM and worked hard until 5:30 pm. In the 53 years we have been in the house we have done about five major remodeling jobs/additions, and a whole bunch more of minor improvements. We have been very happy with most of the firms and workers, and a couple less so. Of all the crews that have worked in our home, Eric and his team were outstanding in every way -- so helpful, courteous, hardworking, quiet, neat, patient in answering questions, and so much more!!! They cleaned up afterwards and it was great to wake up this morning and feel the notable difference in the especially leaky part of the house. We cannot say enough good things about HESS -- Mohammed, Eric and the other technicians!!! And, we are looking forward to significantly lower energy costs. If you want a great job, at a reasonable price, HESS is the place to go!

Mohammed did a pretty thorough air & insulation review of our 5500 ft2 home. I wasn't really…read moreexpecting any large problems since the home was built in 2013 but still it was really interesting to follow him around and see where all the leaks are. He did a blower door test for overall house pressure/leaks and went around every room with an IR meter which clearly showed where air is leaking in (or out) of the house. He helpfully narrated as we went. Then we got a full written report a day later with recommendations but so far no pressure to hire him to do any of them. The $500 cost seemed about right for a large 5500 ft2 house and the 1.5-2 hrs it took. One note: Even though it's called an energy audit, there was no audit of water, electrical, gas or other energy-related items; this was just an air and ventilation audit.

We had the provide insulation in the attic of our house and were told afterwards that they would follow up with us to make sure the other rooms in the house were taken care of. Once they completed the larger more expensive project in the attic they stopped answering my calls, texts, and emails. They had someone come over to the house to check the other rooms had them pull up our floor boards to take a look then never followed up to actually provide the service. I have called both my point of contact and the office multiple times with no response. As a result I am having to go with another company to have the rest of our work done which is extremely unfortunate. I really dont post reviews that often but I just wanted to relay my experience as I use yelp for a lot of my home service projects and rely on honest feedback not just artificially generated positive reviews.

Needless to say, the last several (hot summer) weeks have been miserable. After having an energy audit completed by HESS, we received a very fair quote for all of the work that needed to be completed.

The house is already so much more comfortable than before. Thank you, HESS!

The project was delivered on time and exactly as we had discussed with them. Where we were most impressed though was in the level of customer service they provided. After removing the insulation in our basement, we found a few surprises that were covered up by the old insulation. Founders was extremely accommodating as we worked with other contractors to get those issues (unexpected and unrelated to insulation) squared away. I realize having the other contractors come in was probably pretty disruptive to their workflow, and Brian and his team said he understood our situation and did everything he could to help us out. I will certainly reach out to them again with our next insulation project.

Every time they showed up at my house to conduct my annual HVAC inspection/maintenance in the Spring and the Furnace inspection/maintenance in the Autumn - they were more interested in trying to sell me thousands of dollars of new equipment and systems - rather than do the work they were contracted to do per the terms of the pre-paid maintenance agreement. After checking with some friends, based on their recommendations - I decided to try out Wesley Brooks of Green Home Energy Solutions. He is a small, local HVAC business. Wesley showed up, checked everything out, found the problem and quickly addressed it. He told me whomever had been doing the previous maintenance had been doing a poor job. He showed me what he cleaned out of the HVAC service panel outside by the compressor. It clearly had not been cleaned out for years. So much for the maintenance agreement I had with McCarthy Services. Wesley does not have a web site or a Facebook page.

But a great plumber is only good if you can get a response from them. I've been dealing with him for several years now. Consistently I've had to message repeatedly, call repeatedly. On occasion - as the first time I contacted him probably in 2023 - he answers the phone himself, and provides info on what he thinks the problem is. And he does phenomenal work. After a few years of being a good customer, patient, paying on time, never objecting to pricing, I **STILL** cannot get a response from him. One issue is that he's a one man show. It's him, or no one. His wife is lovely and accompanies him at times. Very knowledgeable herself. About 4 weeks ago I initiated contact and he responded immediately via text. Great, I thought. Then nothing. After a few more messages checking in, he said there was a family medical situation. I gave him space, and here we are two weeks and yet another text message to him later, and nothing. Nada. And still a leaking well tank. C'mon. Do better. We are done, hope you sort yourself out with other customers - I've seen several other people have had the same experience.
