"I had a quote within 2 days. My card was declined by by bank and I had to approve the amount, that was thee only delay I had and it was my fault. I had to make a few adjustments to my order, and I was requoted at least by next day. Shipping confirmation came after the weekend, and I had trim pieces actually arrive before I received my shipping confirmation. Shipping actual flooring to me was curbside, I would have paid a bit more for the company to place in my driveway if given the option. Everything was palletized securely, and everything arrived without defects. Pricing came in better than expected, and better than quotes I received from other companies. Great experience, I will definitely be a returning customer."

"We searched for a while to find the company we thought would be best to renovate our master bathroom. We picked a winner when we selected Allen Kitchen and Bath. Joe came to our condo and looked over the jacuzzi we wanted removed, the shower we wanted moved, the vanity we wanted replaced. He worked with us at his office to plan the details. He stayed in touch as the project proceeded. Clark, the lead carpenter and main contact for the work, was superb to work with. The new finished shower – no door, very spacious, great fixtures – is a delight to use. The look of the bathroom is beautiful. We are so happy that we chose Allen and so grateful to Joe and to Chad and their team for making this all happen."

"I am grateful beyond words for my beautiful new front porch! Meri's design honored the original 1932 bungalow character while refreshing it with a charming contemporary look. She went above and beyond to prepare several design options each with varying budget implications. Todd's tenacious attention to craftsmanship and detail produced a superior built structure that will last for years to come. Bill Remis finished the interior door frame with masterful meticulousness. For the final phase, Jay and his Five Star team with nearly surgical precision completed the finishing exterior paint. Boone's conscientious management of every step, obstacle, and element of the project was executed with kindness, graciousness, humor, and most of all conducted in the highest of professional standards. His keen eye for perfection caught small anomalies missed by others. I know I have forgotten many of the other team members, but know they are recognized and appreciated, as well. The entire team made the experience, from start to finish, just so easy! I never had to fret about orders or deadlines because I knew the project was in excellent hands. Every single member made me smile or laugh with their easy going spirit. I just sat back and let the magic happen! My new front porch has become a neighborhood destination for the many strollers, joggers and dog walkers that pass by daily. I've lost count of the admiring comments and heartening, "Love your porch!" as strangers stop to chat. Many report on watching the progress over the months with eager anticipation. In an odd way, during these difficult pandemic times, I think people found some comfort in seeing something superbly built that is enduring and a reminder there is a future. You all helped to not only design and build a stunning porch, but perhaps unintentionally gave others needing a little distraction and reassurance that beautiful things can happen in gloomy times."

"Rich helped us find a serious air leak in the floor above our basement. In order to repair the problem he had to excavate (by hand) the ground below the leak in order to access the damaged floor and make the necessary repairs and insulate the space. The work took most of the day and when done he explained what he had done. He restored the area and left everything neat and tidy. He and his son were great to work with and very professional."

R-value measures how well insulation resists heat flow, which directly affects your home's energy efficiency. The higher the R-value, the better the insulation. By calculating the R-value needed for your specific climate and home design, you can choose the right insulation materials and thickness to keep your home comfortable and reduce heating and cooling costs.
You don't need to remove your old insulation before adding new insulation, as long as it's in good condition. Adding new insulation over existing materials can improve your home's energy efficiency. For example, you can install blown-in insulation around fiberglass batts or place rigid insulation over existing layers to enhance the overall R-value. However, if your current insulation is wet, moldy, or damaged, you should remove it to avoid health risks and maintain optimal performance.
Installing insulation typically takes five to twelve hours for batts or boards, and two to five hours for spray foam or blown-in insulation. The exact time depends on the type of material and your home's layout. If you need to remove old insulation, have a larger home, or hard-to-reach areas, the project may take longer.
The International Association of Certified Home Inspectors has said foam board insulation can last up to 100 years if properly installed. Some insulation materials can suffer from water damage or start to sag over many years, thus reducing their insulating ability. Foam boards shouldn't suffer from sagging but have the potential to get damaged. Any broken pieces of foam board can reduce its insulating effectiveness.
