We provide no-cost home energy efficiency assessments to determine the efficiency of your homes energy efficiency. We will then create a report on-site and explain the recommendations and rebates we offer through the Mass Save program.

"HomeWorks Energy provided my standard MassSave assessment, and a scheduled heating/cooling assessment.Based on their work, I do not think it was worth my time. For the MassSave assessment, their only work was to change one lightbulb in our kitchen and leave two (useless) "smart" power strips that we won't use, since we don't have a TV or stereo.They did recommend some minor insulation, which we are planning to do ourselves, because even with the 70% discount from MassSave it is $1000 less expensive than their cost. Also, as a warning, their recommendations only bring up insulation levels to current building code. Energy saving standard-of-practice generally recommend much more attic and basement insulation than HomeWorks can recommend or offer discounts on.Finally, and this is what prompted me to write this review, I scheduled an additional heating and cooling assessment, as my initial MassSave inspector wasn't knowledgeable in those areas and didn't have any suggestions to offer. Instead of the inspector showing up, though, I got a phone call 10 minutes before our scheduled time, claiming that they didn't recommend their team coming out to the property because 1). the previous inspector saw a few pieces of fiberglass (personally installed and then removed by me when it melted) adhered to a radiator pipe, and they needed an asbestos abatement company to sign off on it before they could do any work, and 2). because I wasn't yet eligible for a particular rebate, they didn't think it was worth their time.Given that I wanted to talk about future installation options to budget and plan for, I found this deeply unprofessional, not to mention ridiciously red-tape laden. I would NOT recommend HomeWorks Energy for any work or assessments in the future."

There are many things that set my company apart from the rest, but the one that stands out from the rest, is price! Allot of Contractors charge according to location. My company don't work that way, I only charge according to the job at hand. I never throw in hidden fees, the quote I give you stands as is.

FAQs for wainscoting installation projects in Chestnut Hill, MA

Wainscoting is decorative paneling that covers the lower part of a wall for style and protection. Beadboard is a type of wainscoting made of long vertical planks with small raised beads between each board. You’ll see it on walls and ceilings when homeowners want added depth and charm. Both options work indoors or outdoors; beadboard pieces lock together with tongue-and-groove joints, while similar styles, such as shiplap, rely on a square rabbet joint.

The best rule of thumb for wainscoting is to stop the panels at about one-third of the wall height. In a room with a nine-foot ceiling, that’s roughly three feet up. Sticking to this ratio keeps the room balanced, lets plenty of wall color show above the trim, and delivers a polished, timeless look.

Wainscoting can make a room look smaller if the room has low ceilings. The same rule applies to wainscoting as it does to painting any space: to make the room look larger and more open, paint it a light color, such as white or cream. Since beadboard incorporates vertical lines in the paneling, this style of wainscoting is ideal for those wanting to make a room appear larger than it is.

Technically, you can panel any room, but wainscoting shines in open areas, such as a foyer or a tall-ceilinged bathroom. Skip it in small rooms with low ceilings—panels can make tight spaces feel boxed in. Open-concept layouts without clear stopping points along the walls are also tricky, as the trim requires a distinct beginning and end.

Removing existing wall panels before installing wainscoting involves distinct demolition efforts. The cost to hire a professional for demo work is $1.50 per square foot. If the underlying drywall requires replacement after panel removal, an additional fee of $1.60 to $2.35 per square foot is incurred. Completing these tasks properly ensures a sturdy foundation and a flawless finish.
