Get matched with top insulation install or upgrade pros in Rockford, IL

"I sent a message via Angieslist to GF Company asking if they intalled steel roofing or siding. The next day I received this reply. "Thank you for your interest in GF Company. Please feel free to contact our offices at 815-547-0159 to schedule a free estimate. " Now, I could have called them instead of sending a message. I know that. They didn't have to tell me that. But It would have been nice if they had answered my question. A simple yes or no would have sufficed. So I sent my request again making it clear that this was my second request. Two days later I got this. "In response to your questions, we install skylights, steel siding, and steel roofing. If you are still interested in a free estimate, please feel free to contact our offices at 815-547-0159. Thank you." So, was that so hard? I'm not impressed and not inclined to call them. First impressions matter!"

"Steve was very prompt and helpful from the beginning. His crew was professional and cautious. The price was higher than I had hoped, but after seeing the process and the results, I understand why. The mess left behind from the foam was a bit more than I had expected and we had some problems when the foam came in contact with the electrical."

"One of the men asked me if I had used Drano.  I told him I had but I thought it would be gone by now since I tried to rod the drain myself.  I was promptly told that to use an acid was bad for his tools.  He said he normally charges extra for this but no extra was charged.  He rodded the drain twice and cleaned his tools outside with the bucket of water I provided.  During this process, I listened to a rant about the evils of drano.  I didn't think I needed I needed the attitude or the rant.  The work was done properly and the cleaned up and left. I was happy to have the drain opened.

"We had tried several times (including our painter trying) to get the 2 solar rings on our high ceilings removed so that we could clean inside the solar windows. Nobody could figure out how to get the rings loose. I finally used Angie's List to find someone who may be
able to help get the rings off.  I spoke with Art and he and his partner were able to come out on the same day I called. (They had an installation cancelation due to snow.) What they determined (and showed me) was that the rings were screwed in to the drywall (from the roof) when the house was constructed. After laying drop cloths down and making sure they had protected the carpeting and furniture, the very carefully managed to get at the screws in order to get the rings off without ruining our drywall,  paint or ceiling. I had never really liked the cheap plastic white rings that were in the house when we bought it.  Art had several new styles with him
that I could choose from.  Before putting the new caps back on, they straightened and reparied the tubes, wipe them down and made them look brand new.  The solar lights/tubes look amazing now.  Thanks guys.  Great job!

"Dillon was a great guy and worked fast and efficient. My house is 50 plus years old and the duct work had never been cleaned. Post the work, the house even smelled better. I am in the middle of a complete remodel and living in the house. I had all 11 vent grilles removed -(saved Dillon a pile of time not having to remove and re-install) and I would have thought a discount would have been in order."

"AHS is ok. They cover repairs of most everything under the roof of your house. The companies that contract with them are not always the best. You call AHS with the issue, they send a fax to the repair company and give you the contact info. If they don't contact you within 24 hours, you call them. Sometimes they answer, sometimes they don't. When they arrive (usually three days or so later), they service the item. if it has issues within the 90 days, you call AHS again, they are sent out with no charge. If the serviceman decides the unit is unrepairable, AHS will allow you to choose a replacement from their listing (usually not as good as what you have) they will install and remove your old item, or give you wholesale amount to buy and install your own. Prices vary on what you want covered and what you want the copay to be, plus where you live. For me it is 49.99 per month with a 75.00 time of service order. You can have more than one item serviced at the same time under the same fee. If you have a SEAR product the repair guys are great. Not that wild about the other ones they send out. But it is a big savings compared to calling someone on your own. The cost of service is only the 75.00 copay."

"Sales visit was pushy, offering 10% off if I signed that day. I regret giving in. I went with single hung for affordability, but I would have preferred double hung. I wish someone would have told me that I might resent the single hung over time.

Installation was done by one man. He was friendly and capable, but he did run short on time. At the end of the day he asked if he could skip sealing the interior with caulk. He offered to leave caulk for us to finish up ourselves. I allowed this, but found that my caulking skills are not as neat as a professional! I regret this.

He completed the vinyl window wrapping. The product was not vinyl coated metal, but just vinyl, so the wrapping does not have crisp, clean corners. He used clear sylicon caulk on the wrapping. At first the caulking looked nice, but it has collected dirt over time and now looks very messy. He used an abundance of caulk and nails. Over time, I have become dissatisfied with the wrapping.

The insulation that Sears installs with the windows is only fiberglass stuffing. I would prefer foam fill. The windows are good quality, not excellent. I feel that the UV protection coating does add a dark tint. I wish I had known that there are different methods of UV protection and not all involve a dark tint."

"I was in need of a carpenter for a back porch. The concrete/brick contractor that I used (James at Anyway Concrete)  suggested Jeremy.

I contacted Jeremy and he came to my house to inspect the porch and discuss my wants and needs in just a couple of days.  During the inspection he told me my porch wasn't in code because it lacked a landing, the railings were spaced too far apart, and the steps weren't wide enough. (Who knew?!) He also took time to answer all my questions about treated, cedar and synthetic lumber. 

He took measurements, then emailed me options for doing the work using treated lumber, cedar and synthetic which I had requested.. I went with cedar as we were getting new cedar fencing and I love the beauty and smell of cedar. 

Jeremy and his partner did a beautiful job!  I now have a lovely back entrance porch that is in code, a pleasure to sit or stand on and is very secure and strong.  I didn't realize how unsafe our old porch was until I experienced this one.  I was hesitant about the landing, but I can tell you that after just one use, I now wonder how I managed all this time without it! It's a pleasure to be able to put bags on the landing and have my hands free to open the storm door and unlock the back door instead of trying to hold everything in one hand , while balancing on an 8" step hoping not to drop my keys or bags when the I swing open the storm door. 

I also enjoy standing on the landing in the morning and admiring the view of my new backyard. I kind feel like Leonardo DiCaprio (I'm king of the world!) when I stand and look out at my backyard domain er 125'x30' city lot... :)

Jeremy and his partner were fast (they built the porch and gate in one day!), professional, courteous and respectful of my property.  When they were done, they did a great job of clean up.  They also gathered up all the left over cedar lattice and wood and gave to me to so I could burn in our soon to be purchased metal fire pit.  I also appreciated how they showed me the receipts for all the materials purchased. When I commented that the railing was a little wide for my hands, they purchased and installed a solid oak railing with metal brackets at no additional charge.    

As the pictures show, Jeremy is a true craftsman."
