"My consultation with Stellar was scheduled within a day, met with Patrick on 5/1/25. Time was taken to understand the process, everything that is involved and what my options were. Time was taken to listen to what we wanted/didn’t want and thorough explanation given of the entire process. On 5/2/25 Stellar contracting called to review details and confirm our choices. On 5/5/25 Stellar scheduling called and full installation scheduled for 5/9/25, completed 1 day! The crew and project manager, Cisco, were fabulous to deal with on the install day and even after. A link was provided where we could see pictures of the whole project as it happened. Cisco was readily available on install day and even after with questions and concerns. It was obvious that Cisco did care about the roof we were getting and took pride in the quality of the job that was done. The crew paid good attention to the clean up, there was a lot of debris all over the place. Looking forward to future business with them!"

"I had my walls done in 2024. I ended up removing one wall for a remodel and found the wall had limited insulation from USA Insulation. I called them and they came out and look at it and did a thermal image. They said that a wire mess in the one room caused the wall to not be filled. They should have known there was an issue. I questioned the rest of the house and they said the thermal image showed no heat loss. I doubted them and they said they could drill holes in every room. I drilled three holes on the outside of my living room. One showed insulation but did not fill the cavity. The other two did not show any insulation that the thermal image did not catch. They offered me $250 for the one room. They have not responded to 2 emails and 2 phone calls after I found issues in the living room. They said they would make it right and told the BBB they would make it right and I have not heard from them for 3 months."

United Carpet & floor We are a family owned and operated Flooring Company with over 20 years of experience. We welcome everyone to stop in our store for any flooring needs.
"We decided to replace the tired carpet in our condo. United Carpet was our second stop in search of solid vinyl wood plank flooring. We were fortunate to meet Art McLeod, who showed us a vast array of options, We settled on Karndeen and found one we though would go well next to the existing parquet wood flooring in the rest of the condo. He urged us to take a sample home, and we were glad he did, for our sense of the color match was way off. When we returned he shows us what he thought would work. He "right" sold us, (others had tried to get us to take a more expensive product than we needed or wanted) offering us a product a bit less expensive than what we picked, but he assured us it was of equal quality and better for our application, over a concrete floor (we live an a converted 1903 schoolhouse). His selection was right on the money. He kept us apprised of the order and delivery dates and set up an install date based on our availability. His install crew, Jim and Bob arrived on time, calling ahead. Unfortunately they discovered the concrete under the carpet had heaves and cracks and would require leveling. They were craftsmen and did the job carefully and completely. A one day install dragging into four days, but we didn't mind, because we knew the job would be done well and right. They went out of their way to accommodate us in timing of arrival, and always kept us apprised of any need for them to briefly engage in a repair or other activity. They were not going to leave until the job was done perfectly, and they held to that promise. They were pleasant, respectful, and a pleasure to have in our home. We are thrilled with the product, with the installation and our entire experience with United Carpet has been excellent. We cannot recommend them highly enough."

Many major home improvement retailers offer free machine rentals when you purchase a minimum quantity of insulation material, often 20 to 30 bags. These promotions vary by location and season, so calling ahead to confirm current offers is recommended. Be sure to understand any time limitations that apply to these free rentals, as they may restrict you to a specific return window, often 24 hours from checkout.
For most residential attics under 1,500 square feet, a standard consumer-grade blower available at rental centers will provide adequate performance. Larger spaces or projects requiring greater insulation depth may benefit from higher-capacity equipment.
When consulting with the rental provider, mention your attic's square footage, desired insulation depth, and accessibility conditions to receive appropriate equipment recommendations for your specific situation.
DIY installation saves between $160 and $560 in labor costs for standard attic installations requiring four to eight hours of work. These savings must be weighed against equipment rental fees of $50 to $210 per day and the value of your personal time. For more complex installations like wall insulation, which can require 20+ hours of professional labor (costing $800 or more), the potential savings increase substantially, though so does the project complexity.
While there's a learning curve, most homeowners can master the basics with some practice. Key techniques include maintaining consistent material flow into the hopper, controlling hose direction effectively, and preventing clogs in the system.
Starting in less visible areas allows you to refine your technique before moving to more prominent spaces. Thoroughly reviewing the equipment manual and watching instructional videos beforehand significantly improves first-time success rates.
Standard rental periods provide 24 hours of use, though specific terms vary by provider. Some locations calculate this as a calendar day, while others track a full 24-hour period from checkout time. Clarify the exact return deadline when renting, and plan your project timeline accordingly. Late returns often incur additional daily charges at the full rental rate, which can quickly increase your project cost if not managed carefully.
