Get matched with top batt, rolled or reflective insulation install or upgrade pros in Paoli, PA

"I'm very satisfied with the quality of work this company does and the price was very fair. Aaron, the owner, was easy to talk to and after a short discussion, he knew exactly what I wanted. Mike and Dan did the insulation and even replaced a few floor boards at a nominal cost. They politely answered all my questions and you could tell they enjoy their work. If you want a professional job done at a very reasonable price, I would definitely give G.E.G. Enterprises a call."

"I have had good experience on a small project (installation of insulation blanket for basement) with Energy Services Group."

"The scope of work was blow-in insulation into the basement ceiling. Troy was very professional and prompt with services. Additionally, Kuuma Installations beat other competitors estimates."

"It went very well. Jon arrived on time and spent a good bit of time looking all around the basement and attic, even performing a home leak test which revealed that our chimney's damper doesn't perform as it should (already called for service) and that the insulation in our attic is up to code. He made useful suggestions about potential upgrades to our HVAC and water heater, as well as our thermostat. He installed energy efficient light bulbs in the few lamps where we didn't already have them. All told: a very useful expenditure of time and limited funds (the state of DE covering 3/4s of the cost!"

"Installers did a great job!"

"Koala Insulation did an excellent job for us. Brian's team removed an old radiant barrier from our attic floor, installed baffles along the underside of the roof to allow our soffit vents to breath, and added additional blown-in insulation to bring the R-value to 49. I would highly recommend the services of Koala Insulation in Exton."

"Unfortunately, when the techs started the process, the insulation already in the walls prohibited the addition of the foam. I cannot begin to tell you how disappointed I was, as the job they had done on our tiny addition was remarkable. However, isn't it wonderful to have a company tell you the truth!"

"Effy (technician) was professional and patiently detailed the steps we needed to take. He was very knowledgeable and answered all our questions prior to service. The process was quick and very thorough. I could not believe the before and after photos of our system and ducts. The mold was gone. Other companys quoted us THOUSANDS more. Effy's team did an excellent job and saved us thousands of dollars. We will absolutely use them in the future."

"We contacted the Mark Group for a Home Energy Assessment because of coldness in our first floor living area and basement. Gordon performed the assessment and provided recommendations and an estimate to energy seal our basement with spray foam insulation. He assured us that having the work done would substantially decrease air loss, and as a result, the temperature of our first floor and basement would become so warm, we would be wearing short sleeves instead of sweatshirts. Gordon offered us a financial incentive to provide a deposit the day of estimate, something we rarely do. He also pointed out that the crew were professionals, and the insulation would not be sloppily applied, as was the case with a previous attempt by my husband around the circuit box. Gordon added that his crew would conduct a health/safety inspection of our existing CO detectors and install a new CO detector, if needed.   
Subsequently we had the work done by 2 men who arrived promptly on the scheduled day. They took care to protect our carpet and furniture from debris, and removed and disposed of the old insulation before applying the spray foam. They did not provide any feedback on the status of our existing CO detectors but left a new one at the end of the day. Before leaving, they requested an immediate evaluation for Angie's List.  Upon a brief inspection, everything appeared to be satisfactory to my husband, and he complied by completing the form and giving all A grades.  At the time, the front door had been open for 2-3 hours; as this was necessary for proper performance of a blower door test, the house was understandably cold immediately following. 
However, the next day my husband and I both noticed no difference in the temperature of the basement or first floor. Upon closer inspection, my husband observed gaps in the insulation where air flow was still evident. In our opinion, if the old dirt and debris had been vacuumed after removal of the old insulation, the spray would have adhered better, but they did not make the extra effort to do this. In addition, we saw an overall lack of uniformity in the application of the insulation. In some areas the foam was evenly applied, but more often than not, there were several areas where the foam did not completely fill the space or overflowed on to the cinder-block wall.  He promptly contacted the Mark Group and Gordon informed him that someone would contact us to schedule a return visit.  I subsequently emailed Gordon photos of the insulation and requested another thermal camera analysis. Additionally, after further inspection when moving items back into place, there was significant debris on the floor, as well as other areas of the basement that took several hours to clean up.
Approximately 5 days later, Pat came out to inspect the work done and brought the thermal camera. He performed the thermal analysis in the basement and filled in the gaps mentioned,  but explained it was difficult to evenly apply the insulation given the nature of the product and application. Also, he pointed out that due to the structure of our home, it was impossible to substantially improve the temperature in the basement and first floor without having significant structural renovations. While we appreciated Pat's honesty, we felt like Gordon made empty promises and overestimated the benefits of the air sealing.  
This was one of the few times, my husband and I agreed to have work done at the time of estimate, mainly because of the majority of highly favorable reviews,  persuasive statements regarding comfort level, and financial incentive.  Looking back, however, after re-reading ?F? review, I can relate to the homeowner's frustration and regret making the decision without further questioning.
