"I had an emergency and JR Insulation Drywall did an amazing job. I had just sold my house, and in the process of moving, the movers broke a pipe that had to be repaired behind a wall on the day we gave possession to the new owners. I called JR Insulation Drywall and they were there the same day I called and did a wonderful job of the repair. Responsive, quality, and for a great price. Would definitely hire again if I needed help. I so appreciated their help in a stressful time for me."

"This took a couple years to fully complete as I have a Hip (Jack)-roof. The structure blocked off the last 4 feet from the end of the house, where the secondary roof takes over. Unfortunately, voids were inevitable because of all the obstructive joists etc. The next winter this was evident as the snow had melted over the areas that had no insulation. I took pictures, and Ryan sent a crew back to try again. I was happy, but the next winter showed the same voids. A week or so ago, I took out eve boards and found the void(s). Insulated it myself, but realized other end of roof would have the same issue. Called Ryan and he agreed (2 years later mind you) to fill it in for me. Then I drilled a small hole and put a bore-camera in and discovered all center bats had voids of 2 feet or so the length of the house. I scrambled (the night before appointment) and used a hole saw and cut out 7 additional holes through the 2x4 blocks. Too late to call that night and inform them of my new discoveries, I called (almost) first thing next morning to explain the job had gotten a little bigger than a 4x4 foot area. Once he understood the scope of project, Ryan said (as my doorbell was ringing) that they would do whatever needed to be done; just let them know, and call him with any issues. The workers figured out ways to get into the small openings with their hoses and made it work. Didn't argue, very respectful and stuck to it. I couldn't have been more relieved. Thank you for helping me with this issue of 30 years! I just knew my house was cold in winter, and hot in summer. I missed a chance to inspect this area when a roofing job would have allowed me to remove plywood and insulate it then, (as the original builder should have done). This was a "Good 'Cents' Home" from the '70s (PGE program) when insulation was being used to save energy. They just "missed a spot". Thanks everyone. Now my home finally makes 'Cents'!"

"We needed a cavity below our living room bay window filled with blown-in insulation. We were worried that a contractor would not be interested in such a small job. Fortunately, HomeRx came to the rescue with a prompt response and reasonable quote. Samuel got us on the schedule the next week! The installation crew was fantastic. They arrived on time and took great care to protect our living room from insulation debris. They drilled four small holes into the drywall and filled the entire cavity with insulation. Next they did a very professional job to spackle the holes and cleaning up the work area. We could not have been more pleased and will definitely contact with HomeRx for future home projects."

"I contacted 3 companies and they were all wonderful. They came out and gave different bids. They were all very experienced and very good about getting back to me. They were all very helpful and customer oriented. It was only for financial reasons that I had to put off the work. It was for underneath insulation like in a crawl space of the main floor. Only Alpha could do the entire job because of the skill set. They quoted me $1800 and because it was before the end of the year, there would have been a $600 tax credit. So the net cost would have been about $1200. The other 2 quotes were higher on that account. The timing of the work was based on the fact that I had a delay in updating my kitchen. I was hoping that it would be done quickly because they had to have my new sink put in and have all the new plumbing done before they could do the insulation underneath. It was a spray on thing to close up the holes in the bottom of the cabinets which were bigger than the plumbing and breached all the cold air. They were awesome. I will go to them when I have the money to get the work done. As far as affordability, overall professionalism and the fact that they could do the whole job is concerned, they were very good."

"I had Mike Guess come to my 100 year old home to give me an estimate for addinging air conditioning to the house and for potentially replacing a 28 year old furnace. I also need a consultation on our old ductwork and he was able to include abatement and new ductwork in the bid. The bid was very competetive and well organized. Mike took the time to explain everything to me and was very responsive to followup questions I sent (many). In the end we used another company. It was not because of anything negative about Sun Glow and Mike Guess. In fact it was a very challenging decision to make. I think we would have been very happy with the work they did for us and way they did the work. If someone is reading this review, I encourage you to consider calling Sun Glow heating and Air Conditioning if you are looking to update your system. PS: I do not have relationship with this company~ I just thought they deserved a positive review for a very positive experience."

"Zeb and Travis helped walk us through the process well. The installation was done quickly. Overall good experience."

"Well we had trouble scheduling at first. He was willing to work one day but I work nights and needed to sleep without hammering. I called him to say I had all the supplies ready and when I woke up a few days later I found he had called me mid day (10:30) to say his guys were coming over. Problem was I didn't have the supplies where they could get them as I didn't know he would be coming like that. I also thought HE would be doing the repairs but he had employees. The first employee he had working on the roof repaired it differently than we had discussed (he said he approved it as it would save materials and labor) and that placing two shorter boards on each end of the roof wouldn't effect the strength of the roof at all. I doubted this but am not a contractor. The employee he had start on the roof couldn't make it the next day (he was later fired for substandard work per another employee-Jason) so another carpenter came out (Aaron.)  Mark (the owner) had told me what I needed for repairing the facade on my outbuilding as well--in case they finished early on the roof. Aaron and Mark's project manager (Jason) tore off the facade and found all the supports were destroyed by carpenter ants, A simple fix turned into a major overhaul. Aaron was wonderful and they both worked hard. Mark had told me that it would be $3200-3600 to make the wall back to the way it was, plus the cost of parts. When the work was completed their definition of back to the way it was wasn't the same as mine. They never planned on replacing the dry wall or insulation. They were able to contact a drywall installer who was able to get the job done within a few days and they came and replaced the trim a few wks later.  Mark bought and placed the installation that night before so it would be ready for the drywall installation.
Mark and his wife were concerned that I was satisfied with the work & repeated several times that they would do what was needed to make it right.
My issues were:
1) the additional expense of drywall ($700)
2) The freezer I had out there had been stuffed full (had bought a new refrigerator & overstuffed the outside freezer during installation.) My neighbor and I had checked the first night to see if the freezer still had power (it did.) Evidently it was turned off sometime later and all the food (at least $400) was ruined. Mark didn't charge me for the trim or insulation to offset this.
3) After the trim was installed Jason left the plastic sheeting, paper floor lining and other products of construction as it was. It took me almost five hours to clean the mess up. I didn't call Mark about this as I was too angry at the time. He probably would have taken care of it himself.
4) I am caucasian. My teenage son's best friend is American but looks Hispanic. I've known him as a diligent student and caring person for six years and consider him my second son. Jason was looking at me and telling me the progress of the work as I was looking at the building. My son's friend came up and tapped me on the shoulder. I turned to look to see who it was & said hello. Jason laughed and said "Oh you know him? I thought he was going to jump you!" I asked him why he would say such a stupid thing--that this young man was like a son to me? I later told Mark and he said he had fired Jason & appreciated the feedback.

"After inspecting our foundation earlier, Q determined that we needed a sump pump (which we suspected). His quote was reasonable compared to others we had heard about, so we went ahead with it.
His team of three guys worked hard for two days digging drainage trenches and installing the pump in a couple of feet of standing water. We then had to wait about a week for the water to pump out and to dry out so a new vapor barrier and gravel could be added. This was done during a cold winter where it took longer for the area to thaw and dry out so the delay was kind of a bummer, but not at all Ethereal's fault.
When they returned, they were able to finish up in one day (so three days of work total) and cleaned up after themselves very well. The guys were pleasant and happy to answer questions during the work and Q was careful to follow up and check on the work. All in all a great group to work with as long as you're realistic about the work necessary and time involved."

"Great communication from beginning to end of process. Professional and accommodating office, sales, measurement and installation staff. The installers were timely and efficient, and obviously had a lot of experience; they knew how to work around any issues they encountered. Would definitely recommend!"

"The sales person did a good job explaining the work needed, what they would do, and provided a clear estimate. I purchased the plus package with ridge vents. The crew did a good job removing and installing the new roof, boards, and skylight. We had an issue with too much oil on a packag or two of the shingles which created an interesting look on my roof. We worked through the issue by holding payment for that part of the work until the oil faded (a few months). It has been about a year and the roof is doing well."
