"We hired Edge Energy to do a full house remodel (3,000 sq. ft.,two floors, kitchen, living room, dining room, family room, breakfast space, four bedrooms, two full baths and a powder room, laundry room). This is a little outside their normal scope but we really liked the company owner, Jason Dispenza and he set up a favorable pricing schedule that didn't include some of the exorbitant management fees we have seen with other contractors. They started with an energy audit which helped to determine some of the aspects of the systems upgrades we would need. We changed the room configuration on both floors, replaced major systems (water heater, HVAC,electrical, etc.) replaced windows and put in new window openings, installed support beams, replaced the roof, insulation, electrical upgrade and lighting, replaced much of the hardwood flooring, drywall, paint and added a new front entry with a new porch. It was a major job which we lived through for months with the exception of about two weeks when the drywall work was being done. Our living there caused Edge some additional work, but they were considerate of protecting what remained in the house, and making the space as livable as possible. The result is beautiful and we probably have one of the most energy efficient homes in our area of Maryland. The Edge crew was great to work with, very considerate and careful to not disrupt our life more than necessary. Mike Hogan, the project manager was very good to work with, attentive to concerns and very responsive to suggestions. During many weeks we were talking daily. Most subs were very good as well- the HVAC, roofing and drywall guys were great. Our only concerns were with the plumber who delayed the project considerably and the final cost of the project was higher than the estimate we had originally received. I would highly recommend Edge Energy for their work and their customer responsiveness. They are technically highly competent and are very good people to work with."

"I had a wonderful experience with Founders Insulation. They were extremely easy to work with. It was easy to schedule an appointment, the gentleman who came out was knowledgeable and polite, and I felt that I received good information and they did not try to sell me something I did not need. Their quote was excellent. The work was scheduled and completed quickly. The installation team was courtesy, thorough, and knew their stuff. They were respectful of my home and went above and beyond. I highly recommend this company."

"Summary: The Comfy team did a great job b/c they know what they are doing however, they are not without faults. Work Completed: Full crawlspace escalation and turning a vented attic into an unvented attic by adding CC spray from on the roof deck. Time frame: July 13-17 2020 Results: We are only a month out from the work being completed, so the analysis is on-going but here are the numbers so far. My Aug electricity bill was down 26% in real dollars from July. That reduction is in spite of the fact that Aug had a 31% higher average Cooling Degree Days (base Temp 70F - https://www.degreedays.net/-). In addition, the first week of my Aug billing cycle included this work. Again, this is very early on but that is a promising start. Other benefits include less variability in house temperature. Before I would see a temperature difference of 5 degrees Fahrenheit between my bottom and top floors. Now they are no more than 1.5 degrees apart (the thermostat is on the lowest level). This creates an overall more pleasant living environment. So while Iâ m looking at a return on investment that stretches out past 10 years, during that time itâ ll be a more comfortable home to live in. Challenges: My only complaint is that there doesnâ t seem to be a solid quality control program. To be fair, I have high standards of work quality. Especially when Iâ m paying for it. Comfy clearly understands the science and best practices. Itâ s always a challenge translating that over to the real world, which is messy. With that said I felt like I was the one that had to be pointing out the areas of poor workmanship. It sure would have been nice to feel like that quality control was being done for me. Now for the good news, Comfy is correcting all the issues I have pointed out (scheduled but not all completed). Bottom Line: Comfy has a talented team of people, who know the work. They will do a good job at a fair price. But donâ t let the sleek marketing and science lull you into a false sense of security, make sure you get what you paid for."

"Not inexpensive, but worth the cost for energy savings and efficiency. We had received a much higher bid from another company, and were glad we chose Comfenergy. The technician was very knowledgeable and we felt a great difference in our upstair master bed and bath which were uncomfortably warm prior to the improvements. Also nice now to have "green" home for resale."

"Phenomenal job by Evergreen.  Analyzed the current box and gave me options, best, most cost effective was upgrading the 40 yr old CB panel and adding a generator interlock.  Work was done perfectly and efficiently...now when the neighborhood goes dark (all too often when the weather is bad in Northern VA), we have power and AC.  Thanks Evergreen."

"PERFECT!!! Our clothes dryer stopped heating Thanksgiving evening. I found iFix on Angie's List and chose them based on their rave reviews. Mr. Lucky was at our house by noon the next day! He came in, diagnosed the problem and made the repairs with parts he was carrying on the truck. Excellent price and warranty! Five star service by Mr. Lucky! We will ALWAYS call them for all our appliance repair needs. Thank you, sir!"

FAQs for home energy audit projects in Lake Ridge, VA

To prepare for a home energy audit, begin by preparing your space. Clear any obstructions around the attic, basement, ducts, crawl space, appliances, windows, and doors. Gather all your energy bills from the last year and information on home upgrades if you’ve made any changes. If you’ve previously had an audit done, include that information as well.

Finally, be prepared to discuss any questions or concerns you have. If you’ve noticed a rise in your energy bills, hot or cold areas in your home, or unusual sounds from ducts or appliances, make a list to discuss with your auditor.

How often you should get an energy audit depends on the age and condition of your home. New homes with no issues are recommended to get an audit every five years, while older homes should audit every two to three years. If you’ve noticed any changes to your energy bills or other areas of concern, you should get an audit as soon as possible. It’s also a good idea to conduct an audit if you’ve made changes or upgrades to your home, such as installing a new furnace, windows, or doors.

An energy audit takes three to four hours to complete. Your auditor sets up testing equipment, conducts an exhaustive walk‑through inspection, and performs all required evaluations to identify energy loss points. The audit follows a systematic review that includes visual assessments, mechanical tests, and detailed documentation, resulting in a precise report of improvement recommendations.

You can schedule a home energy audit any time of the year—it all depends on what's convenient for you. That said, timing it right can help you tackle issues before they impact your comfort and bills. If you live in a colder climate and want to avoid high heating costs in the winter, getting an audit in the summer allows you to make improvements before the temperature drops. On the contrary, if hot summers are your concern, a spring audit can help you stay cool and save on air conditioning.

To find a qualified home energy auditor, start by searching for local energy auditors with great reviews and recognized certifications like those from the Building Performance Institute (BPI). These credentials ensure they're qualified and can help you qualify for rebates. Don't hesitate to ask about their audit methods and schedule a consultation to see if they're a good fit for your needs. Doing some research upfront helps you get top-notch service and maximize your energy efficiency.

Once you have your energy audit report, it's time to take action. Review the recommendations and prioritize the upgrades that make the most sense for your home and budget. Reach out to experienced pros to get quotes and discuss how they can help. By making these improvements, you'll boost your home's energy efficiency, lower your utility bills, and enjoy a more comfortable living space.
