Get matched with top insulation install or upgrade pros in Yuba City, CA

"Excellent. First, we spoke to Jesse about the product and made an appointment for a free walk through of our home. Jeremy came out and spent hours with us explaining what areas of our home needed to be insulated. He had this great tool which be infrared light, could show the hot and cold areas of the walls. That, and living in such a hot house, were all we needed to decide to go ahead with Clear Efficiency. In the end, our house is now so much cooler. Insulating was the answer for us! We are extremely satisfied with Jesse and Jeremy at Clear Efficiency!"

"It went extremely well. Mark, the owner, was part of the 2-man crew. He gave us a 10% senior discount, and then added an additional discount for scheduling the insulation on a day when one of his 2 crews was not already scheduled for a job. The installation was neat and tidy, and they cleaned up well afterward. <br />"

"The team from Ecoattics was outstanding. Beth gave us a great quote that included insulation, baffle installation and hole filling. Then she was extremely accommodating when we had to delay installation due to a roof leak. The crew was fastidious, and impossibly quiet. Hardly knew they were there. Seriously... they were even careful to quietly close the front door as they came in and out. They finished in one day, and the attic now has an immaculate, level blanket of deep insulation. They even took the time to insulate our attic hatch. Really terrific service!"

"I've worked with All Year Heating and Air for over 10 yrs. This is the largest appliance in a home, so getting exceptional service and tech service for one's investment is so important. Always been pleased with the company."

"Future Energy Savers Review Sales Rep: Briana Burnette We recently decided that we wanted to go solar as a way reduce our carbon footprint, do something good for our environment and save money in the process. I am not one to go into a big financial decision like this lightly, so I did my research. I started the beginning of May, the first thing that I did was reach out to my network of friends to get referrals as I was not really sure where to start. Future Energy Savers was a referral and one of 4 companies that I had consultations with. I met with each company, complete with a list of pressing questions, I wanted to compare apples to apples, so I asked the same questions to each company. I was so excited about the prospect of solar and I liked each of the companies, but as I learned more, the list was reduced from 4 to 2 contenders. One company was eliminated because they kept pushing the lease option, which is not something that we wanted and the second company had only been in business for 4 years. One of our criteria points was the company be knowledgeable, experienced and not a fly by night company. In essence, we wanted a company that had been in business for at least as long as the warranty they offer, which is typically 25 years. Ultimately, the other company was also eliminated and the last one standing was FES. Below are a few of the reasons that we went with them: • US made panels • 25-year warranty • .33 degradation per year on panels • 10 years of system monitoring • Panels made for extreme weather • Seasonal rain is enough to clean the panels, no extra maintenance required • They are experienced in solar and roofing • They have been in business for 43 years • System is fully upgradeable, so adding a battery or more panels later is an option • They use a PV Link Optimizer, which is newer inverter technology, these are NOT heat sensitive • They have a $15,000 bond for the warranty My sales representative with FES was Briana Burnette, I met with her on 5/29/21, and she was wonderful. She fully explained solar, the process, what to expect, the True Up Statement at the end of the year, etc. She was very patient and even answered questions a few times, if needed, to make sure that I had a full understanding. She also did not mind if I texted with additional questions as I analyzed the information to ensure that we were making the best decision for our family. There was absolutely no pressure, just education to help us make an informed decision on how to proceed. Once we made our decision to go with FES, she came back out to sign all the paperwork, answered additional questions and even re-explained a few things to my husband, who had not attended any of the meetings. The next step was the pre-site evaluation to ensure the system size, number of panels, etc., would work for our house. A few days later, I spoke with Rob regarding this pre-site evaluation. He also answered my questions and emailed me the schematic to show me where the 16 panels would be placed. I wanted to make sure the placement was aesthetically pleasing and that I was fully informed on what to expect with installation. From there, the information was sent to SMUD for review/approval and then on to the permitting process. FES took care of getting all of the permits and it happened very timely. Our installation happened on Friday, 7/16/21. The crew was 15 minutes early, which I appreciated. They were very friendly, knowledgeable and patient. At the end of the install, I was shown how to use the equipment and all of my remaining questions were answered. From my perspective, it was a very smooth install, although, the guys ran into a few issues, but they were very professional and got the job done in spite of this. It is 7/21/21 as I begin writing this review and I have just installed the Generac PWR View app on my phone. It is very basic, so it should not be difficult to learn. The first screen has a visual that shows the amount of solar, in kWh being produced real-time, followed by how much electricity our house is using, and if we are selling excess back to SMUD or if we are supplementing with energy from the grid. There is also a day, week, month and year view where you can see all the details of energy production. This will be a good tool to monitor as we opted not to purchase a battery at this point. Instead, we went with a little bit bigger system that we could grow into. We want to monitor for a year and see if a battery is necessary, we are not expecting to need one, but the system is fully upgradeable if we decide to go that way later. We are waiting for the few last steps to be fully online with solar. There will be an inspection in a few weeks to ensure that everything was installed properly and up to code. I am not worried because I feel like FES is top notch. And, after that, SMUD will need to come out and install a SMART meter so that we can start earning credit on the energy we are producing and not using. Update: Mitchell from FES called on 7/22/21 to set up the inspection. The first attempt did not happen due to a conflict with the city inspector. So, the inspection actually happened on Tuesday, 7/27/21. It was a virtual inspection, so Mitchell came out, explained what would happen and then had this meeting with the inspector. Everything passed without issue. The solar system did need to be turned off, which I was not thrilled with, we just got it and it had to be turned off. This is because it needed to be offline when SMUD comes out to install the SMART meter. I am just disappointed that we are not able to use our solar during the hot August days, but I understand the reasoning behind it. I am just anxious to start seeing the full benefits of our solar system. Hurry up SMUD and contact us to install the SMART meter. SMUD came out on 8/10/21 to install the SMART meter, I then contacted FES and Mitchell came out the same day to turn the system back on for us. While doing this, he noticed that 3 of the 16 panels were offline. As a result, we needed to get on the schedule to have someone come out and look at the system to find out why this was happening. Throughout the course of a month, FES had a repair tech come out three times before our system was fully online and running in peak performance. It was completely fixed on 9/21/21. The first time the repair tech came out, he made some adjustments and according to the Generac app, all 16 panels were performing. The next day when I was monitoring, solar just stopped producing altogether. I called and spoke to Thomas and he contacted Generac to troubleshoot. Apparently, the inverter has a safety mode to protect the system and it kicked into action after the first modification to the system was completed. It was a quick fix and Generac was able to reset the system on their side and we were back producing solar. A few days went by and I did not feel that the system was producing as it should, so I contacted Thomas again. He did review our system on his side and stated that something was still not right with the PV Link, so he sent another repair tech out to fix it. Again, he made a few adjustments and everything seemed to be working properly when he left. I continued to monitor and the system was still not in the kWh range per hour, so I reached back one more time, this time I spoke with Pat. He did some research and confirmed that I was correct and sent the repair tech out that day to fix the issue. He looked at the entire system this time and determined that there were extra clips used in the installation process and that was what was causing the issue. He had to rework the entire system, but when he left the system was fully functional everything has been producing at peak performance ever since, again this happened on 9/21/21. Now, the reason I documented these initial system issues is because I want to point out the great customer service that was provided and the quick turnaround time. Every time I called, if I was not able to speak with someone, my call was returned within 24-48 hours and a repair tech was sent out within 1-3 days each time. I know they are busy, so I appreci"

"Hawkins has now done two whole-house window replacements for us. This second home is a one-of-a-kind designed Mid-Century Modern classic home, and we have been very fussy about how the windows needed to look in order to retain the essential look and style of the old window styles. Hawkins has been able to provide us with really spectacular replacements. Gary Hawkins, the owner, came personally to look at our home and listen to our concerns, and then was able to select the precise windows we asked for. We find them to be reasonably priced and responsive to concerns. Since they have done multiple jobs for us, we know they do a great job of keeping their customers happy and also hit the "budget-friendly" button, too! This project includes replacing 3 sliding glass doors, (one which is 10 feet wide), 18 windows, (3 of which are 8+ feet wide picture windows), 4 floor-to-ceiling fixed tempered windows, and 3 specialty reeded glass windows."

"We initially contacted TGI for a new wood fireplace insert. They helped us through all of the steps as we needed to remove the existing one and replace the rock front and hearth. As you can see the finished product is beautiful. Highly recommend! Bob (owner) and Cody did fireplace install for mine. They kept the area clear and clean and were able to get the fireplace installed within the day once the rockwork was done. Having young children it's incredibly important who I invite into my home. I would be happy to do business again! Thank you both!!"

"Jason came out on time to estimate job, schedule was set, crew arrived exactly when they said they would and knocked out the job in 1/2 day. I sent payment in and submitted my rebate to PGand E. PGand E needed more information on the invoice to approve. One phone call to Melody Powers, Office Manager, and a corrected invoice explaining what the ceiling insulation was before and after the job was in my mail box 2 days later. I forwarded the information on to PGand E and received my check and now am enjoying a cozy house as the Sacramento winter is upon us and lower energy use. ABC is an excellent contractor who is on time and fast in completion of work."

"Excellent experience with this company. They lent us a portable air conditioner while we waited for our new air conditioner to be installed. They helped us with financing the new system. All the service employees were helpful, friendly, and knowledgeable. They even came out to help us after the office was closed. I fully recommend their company."

"In one word, fantastic. Joe is a true professional in every sense. Not only was he dedicated and a hard worker, but he is a one stop shop with a multitude of skills requiring very little outside subcontract work. He did everything from the demo, framing, electrical, and plumbing to the drywall, texturing, finish work, and tile. We chose to save a few bucks by doing the painting ourselves. From the first meeting, he was also completely up front and communicative with costs, ideas, and timing. The very detailed quote laid it out clearly to the point I was able to reconcile every cost by the end with very little overage (which was our choice since we decided to splurge in a couple places.) We found him trustworthy and even consulted him on some additional work we did ourselves in the house as well as referred him to close friends - whom he's doing a kitchen remodel for now. My husband and I would highly recommend him to anyone for small or large projects. Get on his calendar quick as this guys is in high demand."
