They damaged my sheetrock and acted like it was already done before they arrived. The owner is not friendly to work with. Be careful.

When I hired Hutch’s Dr Energy Saver he told me his company would solve all my problems (sweating ceilings) that the previous attic insulation company (DAVCO) did not address & made worse. But that did not happen & now Hutch says he’s out of business. So I’m left with sweating ceilings & trying to find an honest contractor that can help me. Also, the corporate office for Dr Energy Saver told me they are not responsible, they JUST sell the products.

the gentleman who did the initial evaluation didn't have an tools to get into my attic. he didn't check anywhere else in the house for problems besides the attic. they scheduled the work and then missed the appointment. I had to strongly engage them to come do the work that day since I took off of work to wait on them. the plan they recommended for my home did not solve my issue. I have been calling them to re-evaluate my house to find the source of my problem and no one seems to want to return ny call.

Hutch is a good businessman! When he learned they were short one guy to finish installing the insulation after they had taken the old insulation out, he did not want to leave us without insulation with the heat we had been having. Hutch came down himself that day to make sure the job was done.

Hutch reviewed the work at completion and made some addition to the attic insulation to meet his job performance standards. From the beginning, home visit needs review to completion of job, everyone was very organized.

Insulation contractor knocked a sheet of sheet rock off of my new stud wall that I had to fix. Also, contractor mistakenly did not fill several stud cavities of another wall. I called Hutch and explained situation. He had his guys back to my house 2 days later to blow in more insulation (I had to fix sheet rock myself.) Be careful that you have EVERYTHING cleaned up in areas that insulation will be installed. My experience is that installers will leave a mess.
Response from Hutch's Dr. Energy Saver
"Thank you for taking the time to provide feedback on your project. We have addressed this concern with our installers and are always appreciative when our clients illustrate ways that we can improve. We know that your home will be more comfortable and encourage you to call us with any needs, concerns, or referrals in the future."

Workers very efficient and clean. Hurricane Matthew didn't keep them from showing up on time. Worked late on Saturday to finish on schedule. Very impressed with results.

Would have liked to see someone go behind the workers to ensure quality assurance. Thought the work was expensive, more than I could have imagined.
Response from Hutch's Dr. Energy Saver
"Thank you for your review and for the opportunity to make your home more comfortable. From our experience with other projects similar to yours, our customers are seeing $100+ savings a month within the first 2 months of completing their upgrades. Larger costs were incurred due to the complexity of your attic project, but we are certain that you will see a noticeable difference. We also learned a lot with your complex attic, including ways to improve our procedures. Although our foremen have been properly trained in quality assurance, we have been in the process of expanding our team to strengthen these procedures."

Hutch's initial consult was very thorough pointing out problem areas I had not even thought about. He did exactly what he said he would do and personally followed up to make sure it was done right.

I went into the attic the day after they had supposedly finished the job applying foam to the ducts and adding insulation to the attic. I found numerous ducts that did not have foam where there should have been foam. I also found numerous spots where the foam had not covered and cold air could be felt coming through the holes. The owner came back and foamed the areas he found needing it. The next day, I once again went into attic to check the work and found large areas on 9 out of 13 ducts that still did not have foam covering them. They came back and finally finished the job. During the initial work, they didn't cover the attic access and foam came down onto a large screen HDTV, ruining the top and back of the case. One of the workers stepped through the ceiling while they were finishing up the job, the first time. They hired someone to repair the hole, and that person did an exceptional job. However, it would have been better if the worker hadn't stepped through the ceiling. I also had them seal my crawlspace. As with the attic, I crawled under the house, inspected the work, and had to have them return to properly seal around the sump pumps. Hutch did respond to all of my concerns and they fixed what needed to be fixed. However, when I hire a professional recommended by Home Advisor, I do not expect to have to climb into the attic or under the house to perform what should be their Quality Control job. There hasn't been enough time since the job was completed, so I cannot really say whether or not there is value for the money.
Response from Hutch's Dr. Energy Saver
"Roger- Thank you for your review. We always welcome feedback. Your attic in particular was a challenge, but we appreciate you letting us get it right. Both you and your wife mentioned that you were already able to feel a difference with just the attic done, so we know you will experience a greater, positive difference now that the crawl space is completed as well."

We have noticed a huge difference in the comfort level in the home after having insulation added to our home. The person who performed the Home Energy Audit was very thorough and explained several different options to us. We are very pleased with everything.

Everyone I had contact with was very professional. The install crew showed up on time and cleaned up very well. You wouldn't even know we had workers in the house. Overall I was very satisfied with the experience.
