Easy to transact, good communication and execution. Very punctual. Insulation makes a big difference. Just replaced all of the windows of the house today. Very well thermally insulated now.

I reached out to Russell from Guardian Energy for getting a home energy audit done. I was glad to discover that he provided exactly the service I was looking for (unlike a competitor whom I also spoke with). During the inspection, Russell was extremely helpful in constantly sharing his knowledge. He pointed out places where my home and appliances were doing fine, and other places where there were gaps. Based on the audit, I went back to Russell to improve my attic insulation. The work was done for a reasonable price, and I particularly appreciated Russell throwing in the air sealing around my doors and windows. Compared to other attic experts, I was not recommended to go with all the bells and whistles, since it wasn't considered necessary during the audit, and that definitely saved me a considerable amount of money. Time will tell how much energy savings my home sees. But my experience with Russell was very positive. I already recommended the energy audit to folks I know. And I recommend it, and Guardian Energy to users of Angi as well.

Response from Guardian Home Energy
With all due respect This is not true. You must have us confused with another contractor. Also we do not do soundproofing work. We refer soundproofing inquiries to SoundProofing.org. I’m sure they’ll be able to help you out. Best of luck!

Amazing response, speedy service and just great group of people. I would recommend Guardian Home Insulation to anyone.
Description of Work: We had an emergency with mothball exposure and rat infestation in the attic. At the same time my wife was due at any moment with our first child. Brain came in the same day and added a permanent fan to remove the fumes and removed the of insulation the same day. The next day the holes were closed up and the rat area was sterilized. And the new insulation was blown in. All in three days!!!!! It saved our home and made it livable again.

I live in the inland empire which if you are not aware of gets really really hot. So I have to run the ac all the time. I have been pricing insulation from different companies and different sites comparing prices for different types of insulation as well as blown in vs placed matting. I was also looking for reliability, quality and price. So after searching home adviser, angies list and yelp decided to go with Guardian insulation. After discussing with Jesse we understood that pricing is different from OC vs. IE and was able to get a fantastic deal priced per the square foot for R-38 blown in cellulose my home is 1300 sq feet and even now I feel the difference. Not only that they installed during one of the hottest days in the IE 105 degrees!! Jesse is able to respond via cellular, text and email and is responsive and personable Not many owner operators are as hands on and knowledgable to walk you through the explanation of the types of insulation and your home needs.
Description of Work: my home needed attic insulation as it was never installed when the house was built so needed to have it installed asap prior to getting any hotter.

They did good. They carried themselves well. They did a good job. They came 2 times. Once to do the estimate and then to do the job. They did well. It was expensive but I don't think it was any more than any place else. It was just more than I wanted to spend.

I wasn't ready to execute. Very nice gentleman. I had some other contractors lined up before him and I told him that. They also sell solar so it was really tough to figure out the ending price because I called them for insulation. He didn't really sell me the insulation. I already knew about insulation from other contractors. I had to tell him what I wanted. His price was competitive. He had a pretty good Angie's List deal and he never called me back. The only time I got a hold of him was through an app. I contacted him through Angie's List and no answer. I called him three times and no answer because he had a problem with his calling service. He was here on time.
Description of Work: They came by and did a quote for insulation.

Jesse was great at overseeing the project and Brian was courteous and efficient with the installation. Even though they lost money on the installation, they did a great job. They offer other services which I did not need but would have used the company if I did. They have a great whole house cooling system that would be terrific for the right home.

Description of Work: I purchased a deal on Angie's List with the service provider and they never contacted me to do the service. I contacted them and they said they would call twice and they never did. I contacted them today and again was promised they would call me back. I didn't want to wait any longer so I refunded the deal.

Response from Guardian Home Energy
This customer thought they were purchasing a whole house fan, not an attic fan. Regardless, the reason we did not respond was our message center was not being properly relayed to the field rep in this area during this time. We didn't come to be aware of the problem until a week later. We reached out to this customer to apologize and offer to install the attic fan they purchased for free. As it turns out they were under the impression they had purchased a whole house fan and not an attic gable fan and had no interest in actually receiving the product that had purchased even completely free of charge.

The Important Part: All went well! The installer (Mike?) is a Master at Stucco and Drywall repair. You can't tell that holes were drilled in the Stucco and Drywall to blow in the insulation. Some Details: The cost to add insulation to the entire house was prohibitively high. We targeted the "High Return" areas of the house to reduce the amount of heat transferred into the house by the Sun. This cost significantly less. The installer did a great job and was done in about 3 days... We get our power from SCE and are able to see how much electricity we are using on a daily basis. The SCE data also includes Outside Temperature . We only have a few days of data at this point so it is not clear how much electricity we are saving (if any). I will post an update after we get enough data to show a statistical significance. The Southern California Gas Company offers rebates for certain energy efficient home improvements including attic and wall insulation. They make a mail in application available on their website for customers to download & print. Once an application is received they mail a check to the customer within 6-8 weeks. I will update this review when the check arrives ;) There is also a Federal Tax Credit available. Form 5695 for "Residential Energy Credits" entitles you to a Federal tax credit equal to 10% of the cost of the insulation work. Guardian just gives you a receipt & instructs you to give it to your accountant so he knows what form to file.
Description of Work: Guardian installed Cellulose Insulation in the Attic / Cathedral Ceiling as well as the South Facing Walls.

Installer was on time, was very friendly and informative. Completed the job in a timely manner, very clean work and no mess was left behind. Had several quotes prior to Brian showing up, he worked within my budget and completed the job several days later per my request. I will be referring Guardian Insulation to my friends and family.
