No payments due until full project completion to your full satisfaction. Local references available. Locally and veteran owned and operated.
"They did my entire crawl space encapsulation. They installed a dehumidifier and just placed it on an uneven ground. I called several times to complain that it was leaking on the ground and they told me to try an level it. I asked why they did not attach it to the ceiling and they said it was not part of the quote. I told them that it was not installed correctly then and they told me they would come out and install it correctly after I paid them a trip charge of 129 and then they would bill me for the install. I told them that it was not put in correctly the first time and they did not seem to care much about that part of the job. I told them that they can come out and install it correctly and I would pay and then I would write a review. After they came out they just laid the pump back on the floor and said that they could put that up at the ceiling so it would not drag on the floor but that would be an extra charge and service call. What about doing things correctly the first time?????? Looks like they just want to nickel and dime you to death."

"Chad came out, and we had a great conversation about our project. We were very excited to work with him, and he said it would be a week or so to get back to us with a quote. After 4 weeks, I combed my email for anything I might have missed. Neither of us had an email or a VM. I sent a follow-up email, but nothing. I called and left a VM, but nothing again. We got ghosted, and it hurts. Is it so hard to just email? 'Hey, thank you for the opportunity, but we have decided to pass on your project.'"

"When my air conditioner quit a tech came and found nothing wrong for about $90, the second time the same tech came to find the repair would be $1500. A more experienced tech came a few hot days later. He got the unit working temporarily and ordered a TXV valve. The first tech told me $1500, but my bill was $2131 even tho Angi.com and other websites set the price for the work at between $400 and $700. Does this sound right ?"

"This is the worst business I’ve ever dealt with and I am a project manager at a state institution. This company will gaslight you until you get so frustrated with them that you give up on getting them to complete what you asked them to do. They did about 10K worth of work that I did not ask for, then charged another 5K to complete the original scope of work. Collin Chappell is a liar. He told me he installed concrete supports for my balcony and he didn’t do it and tried to get away with it. Now I have wood beams rotting in the ground surrounded by wet packed clay. I even have an email catching him in the lie and he still won’t fix it. They will lie straight to your face, take as many shortcuts as possible, make every excuse in the book and will steal your money. RUN."

Yes, you should remove old insulation if it's damaged, contaminated, or deteriorated. Signs like water damage, rodent droppings, mold, or gaps mean removal is essential to maintain energy efficiency and a safe living environment. If the insulation is intact and functioning well, removal isn't necessary. However, compromised insulation can increase energy costs and pose health risks.
Attic insulation lasts 80 to 100 years; however, its performance starts to decline after 15 years. Insulation loses effectiveness as materials like fiberglass become dirty, wet, or affected by mold and other contaminants. Regular evaluation is critical because reduced insulation performance leads to higher energy loss. A professional inspection confirms when replacement is necessary, ensuring that your home maintains peak energy efficiency and comfort.
Excess attic insulation does not enhance energy efficiency beyond an optimal threshold. When insulation surpasses the necessary level for your region’s climate, additional material does not improve heat retention and may cause moisture buildup. Maintaining the correct balance is essential because over-insulation can lead to unintended issues without lowering energy costs. A professional assessment ensures that the amount of insulation is ideal for performance and efficiency, and helps avoid unnecessary expenses.
R-value is the measure of a material’s ability to resist heat transfer and directly determines insulation performance. A higher R-value means the material retains heat efficiently during winter and minimizes energy loss in warmer months. Selecting insulation with the appropriate R-value for your specific location is essential because environmental conditions and installation areas significantly influence energy efficiency. Over time, external factors like moisture may degrade the R-value, which underscores the importance of periodic evaluation.
Insulation damage occurs in several forms, including mold growth, pest infestations, water intrusion, and electrical harm. Damaged insulation compromises heat retention and significantly increases energy expenses while posing serious health risks. Immediate removal and replacement of compromised insulation are imperative to restore optimal performance and ensure the safety of your home. Regular inspections will identify these issues early, allowing for swift corrective action that maintains efficiency and protects occupants.
