"I had a new roof and a high efficient hot water heater installed. I’m extremely happy with both. Every single person I had contact with was so professional, courteous, knowledgeable and clean. I would use them again for anything I should ever need for my home. I understand they do windows and many other things. I can’t say enough good things about this company."

"Went with company based on previous reviews and the fact that they are on the PGE contractor list.  Originally met with Lance for estimate and potential needs.  Had an energy assessment through an outside vendor which showed my house wasn't as leaky as I thought it would be.  Turned out that windows were the biggest bang for my buck.  Lance was very helpful.  Got windows ordered and scheduled install pretty quickly thereafter.  Roger was the primary installer.  Had a small oops with one big window because apparently the measurement was either incorrect or transcribed wrong so that had to be reordered.  Scheduler thought it would be an all day install but only took a couple of hours.  They were very professional and friendly.  I work from home and was on conference calls during the install.  They were really pretty quiet overall. Cleaned up everything and the windows looked great.  The other window was reordered.  Roger came back a few weeks later and installed the final window.  I would definitely use them again. <br />"

"Hi Cliff, Thanks for your phone call follow up! Yes, we are very happy with our insulation project. Everyone was very friendly and hard working. At the start of each day, they explained what they were going to do, which helped us better understand the process/progress. Not being up in the attic during the process, it is hard to evaluate work quality. However, based on their work ethic, viewing from the attic entrance, and your reviews on Angie's List, I am confident they did an excellent job. Brian was very helpful. I explain some special situations like a bathroom vent that could provide rodent access. I expected to have to remind Brian at the end of the project, but to my pleasant surprise, there was no need. He solved the problem to our satisfaction. Brian mentioned that he was going to take pictures of some of the completed stages of the project for us to see. Thanks again to you and your professional team. Gary and Debbie"

"I interviewed 4 solar companies and NRG stand out the most because of the pricing. Kaelen came over and went through the numbers and everything made sense. I like the inverters and panels that NRG offered. Tiffany was great coordinating the project and handling the H.O.A. To get it approved by HOA took 3 days and after installation the city inspection took 1 day. Installers took 2 days to install 32 panels on a two story home. NRG seems like they really care because they sent out Robert after everything is completed to make sure I am completely satisfied with my solar. Love using the solar edge app and monitoring my production. Very useful tool if you want to manage your electricity. I am so pleased with NRG I am going to refer my neighbor who also wants solar. Thanks for everthing!"

"I was really impressed with them. They were in and out that day, maybe 4-5 hours. The contractor made sure the job was done right and that there were no holes in the wire vent."

"Called them to make an appointment to look at my AC which was making more noise than normal. They said they were not taking new customers. Guess their business is so good they don't need new customers. Don't bother calling them if you haven't used them before."

FAQs for home energy audit projects in Sacramento, CA

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.
