My experience was just fine. There was a little delay in scheduling the appointment and I had to call them but they accommodated to me. The technician was knowledgeable and gave a good presentation. They showed me illustrations of where the air is coming from the vents. After talking with another company, I may not use A+ Insulation in the future.

This company has been amazing from start to finish. The salesman came out and honestly advised me on what would be best for my home, rather than what would make him the most. There was never any pressure or sales tactics. They had a binder with pictures and copies of certifications and insurance, which was comforting. As I looked through the binder, I noticed a fireplace picture and read and asked about the fireplace balloon. As they explained what it was, I sold myself on the product. They sell through educating and letting people make their own decisions. The 3 man team that did the install were timely, friendly, professional, clean and fast. They put down plastic before they began, removed all the old debris that was in the attic, answered all my questions, and tolerated my frequent check-ins. They cleaned up all their mess and checked to make sure that they did a satisfactory job before leaving. It was an amazing experience from start to finish.

Primarily it worked out OK. I interviewed several companies and they were knowledgeable about what I was looking for. We discussed several different options and then I selected a specific option of what I wanted done. It was not what they originally had recommended. They really wanted to sell me a more expensive package, but we agreed upon a lesser cost package. The $49 of the deal was an analysis and then I ended up purchasing the installation for the house. I was looking to find out what insulation I needed in terms of my attic. They did an analysis and then I got a bid from them, along with a couple of other people, and then I worked with them in terms of the bid.

They did a good job. I had some issues with one aspect of the service that they provided, but everything else they did like they promised to do. They did more than what the Big Deal was for. I would use them again in the future.
Description of Work: I used A+ Insulation Big Deal purchase in June. They came out and installed the solar fan and exhaust fan in attic space and then they ended doing was blowing in additional insulation building up around the access to the attic, ceiling around all of the can lights and so forth. They told me a cover for the attic fan. The original cover that they sold me wouldn't fit. They couldn't put the type of cover that they had sold me on there because there wasn't enough space around the edges so they sold an alternate thing which actually cost less than the first one. I went up couple of weeks after they had put it up and it was lying on the floor, it was fallen down and they came out and replaced it and went up some months after that and half of it was hanging down so they just actually came out last Monday and just took it away and are going to credit me for that part of service.

The crew that came in was very polite, friendly, and professional. They got right to the job. They worked very well. UPDATE: A+ Insulation is correct! We did have a new furnace installed around the same time frame and the installation installed afterwards. The insulation job went fine and the workers as described above. The only issue was that the whole house fan intake vent was covered by the insulation during the initial installation. They were called out to fix the problem and they did so. We are very happy with the work now and upgraded the rating to an "A".

We were concerned that our child's closet required additional insulation due to the difference in temperature from her bedroom. The sales rep spent a good amount of time looking in the attic above the bedroom and the garage. He also used a thermal device to assist with his diagnosis. In the end, the rep decided that no action was the best action. He suggested that we leave the door to the closet open allowing better air flow. I was impressed that the company rep suggested a no cost option as the best option. We would definitely use them again.

They removed old insulation and other debris from the crawl space and spray foamed/insulated the walls of the crawl space and put down a plastic (?) covering over the dirt floor. I have not personally inspected it yet, but they took pictures to show me what they did. They were prompt, polite, really nice young men. The estimate was exactly what they charged, and the estimated services were exactly what they performed.

The crew showed up on time and were extremely pleasant and knowledgable. They showed great concern for my home in prepping for the project as well as the actual execution. They also uncovered some problem areas with the heating and cooling trunks that were not noticed in the original estimate that they resolved. They reviewed before and after pictures of the work that was done. While it took a lot longer to complete than they thought when they arrived, there were no complaints and they maintained their professionalism throughout. Clean up was excellent. My only disappointment was allowing the large truck to park on my circular driveway, which has corners that are too sharp for that large of a truck to maneuver. Fortunately they missed the sprinkler heads when they cut the corners to enter the drive and again to leave. This is really no fault of theirs... I just want to encourage others to think about this when determining where to have the truck park for easiest access with the insulation hoses. Overall, an excellent experience!
Description of Work: Provided a thermal scan of the entire house first and noted poorly insulated areas and major trouble spots. Keith provided a very detailed estimate of the work to be done, ensuring I understood what would and what would not be done within the scope of the project. The crew showed up today to rectify the problem areas with blown-in insulation as well as sealing can lights, vents, plumbing and electrical areas.

I never received a call from them to schedule the work. I called (15) days later to schedule the work. They advised they were busy and would be calling me to set up the appointment. I waited once again, called back and they said they would follow up with me at a later time. I eventually decided to cancel the deal as a result.

Everyone at A+ was a pleasure to work with, from the very first phone call. Our estimator, Keith Custer, was very knowledgeable, and gave us a good education about insulating. He carefully and patiently explained every aspect of what would be done, and why we should or shouldn't consider various things. The crew was able to come out in a short time, and finished the work in two days. They were quick and thorough, and very, very neat. We had done an energy audit with another company, and Keith explained how that would work with rebates, and told us how to follow up with our auditor. We decided not to insulate our walls, and didn't feel any pressure from the company to do so. Our bid was reasonable compared to other bids we received, as well. I would absolutely recommend A+ Insulation.
Description of Work: We had our 1914 home insulated with A+ Insulation, and are very pleased with every aspect of the job. We had a whole house air seal, which included sealing all windows and doors, installing a fireplace balloon, all plumbing and pipe connections, venting the attic properly, etc. We had the rim joists sprayed with foam and insulated, and the basement supply lines for the HVAC were sealed. We had the attic fully insulated and an attic cover installed.

com[any provided a knowledgeable and professional sales representative. Bid was detailed and informative. Good communication from their office staff relevant to the work to be preformed. Workmen arrived on time, were careful to protect furnishing in my home, and took many pictures of the work preformed, and explained what was done. When completed, the office emailed me the pictures of the work in the attic for my records, and to verify their work. Would recommend the company.

Response from A+ Insulation
Installing roof vents on the home does not have a big direct effect on the temperature of the home. They help circulate fresh air into the attic space to keep the attic temperature at a minimum on hot summer days. A properly ventilated attic can increase the life of your roof significantly and help keep the area below the attic more comfortable in extreme heat. This vent was recently installed at the end of last month. We have had moderate temperatures since then and it would be difficult to notice a difference in the home as of now. As we roll into next summer and we experience extreme heat, you will notice a difference in the home as your attic will be kept much cooler by he solar attic fan. We will put a follow up in for next summer to check the performance of the vent. As always if you need anything in the mean-time, just let us know!

I am happy with the project. Employee arrived promptly to assess the situation and determine the proper location of the fan. The installation was scheduled -- and since it is installed from the outside, I was told I did not need to be home for the installation. I got a call the night before the scheduled installation saying that there was a high demand for the fans and that the new shipment hadn't arrived yet -- they scheduled another date. On the newly scheduled date, I got a call (I was at work) from the man installing the fan saying that he hadn't brought the proper equipment (his ladder wasn't tall enough to reach the 2nd floor of my house). He returned a separate time with the proper ladder and installed the solar fan. So, although it took numerous trips to install the fan, I was not inconvenienced since my presence was not necessary since work could be done from outside.

It went very well. I was impressed with the thoroughness. We chose to not have the work performed after talking to a friend about the real issue we were having of one room in our house being hot in the summer and cold in the winter along with the length of time it would take to make up the savings of having the work performed versus energy cost. I would recommend A+ insulation to anyone needing insulation work done and we still may use them in the future, just not for this particular project at this time.

All in all, the experience went well. The original day I had scheduled my appointment was brutally hot but the installer did come and make an attempt to go up on the roof to check conditions. He said it was melting his gloves so we decided to reschedule the installation. That was totally fine with me. I felt so bad for him even climbing up on the roof on the original date. The rescheduled date was much better and he was able to complete the job. He did a great job and I was glad to same some money.
Description of Work: I had been advised to install a solar attic fan by my heating and cooling service company to reduce the buildup of heat in the attic and thus, make the upstairs of the house more comfortable. I hadn't followed up on the advise but when I saw the Angie's List deal offering the solar attic fan for about half-price, I jumped on it.

I'm glad you asked.. I only paid this company so that I could avoid the time fighting them in the judical system. I would not recommend anyone ever using them unless they video the proposal and have a witness present. This was one of the worst experiences, I've ever had with a contractor. My wife suggested that we bulldoze the home before the remodeling project, and this expericnce made me regret not taking her suggection. The saleman gave all the positive and correct replies to my job requests and agreeded to preform the said work per a signed contract. Something made me want to question him, but I had just had another person whom I questioned their intergity provide a bid. This guy seemed very professional and was aware of industry standards. We agreed upon the services for our home and signed a contract indicating the scope of work to be completed. That's when the fun started. Upon their arrival at the jobsite only half the work to be completd was being done per the contract.. The foam was spread only on specific areas of the roof deck and not along the base of the walls where large gaps were eviedent and present. the solar fan was also insatlled onather side of the home different from where I requested it be. Also, the contract called for them to vent out the bathroom and plumbing vents. . Each time I asked for something to be done per the contract, I was told to call the office. That call was was great, someone their consistenly made excuses for the saleman and denied all responsibilty for the project not being completed per the contract. I really regret having to place this, as most of all my experiences with Angie's list contractor have been excellent. . My hope is that A+ will evaluate thier business practices... Oh, I called Hayes insulation and they completed the job correctly with no problemsir

Response from A+ Insulation
[member name removed] agreed to a specific work scope, after Keith our sales manager walked through the entire project with him, we turned in an estimate for [member name removed] to look over, sign, and agree to. When we arrived on time to our scheduled install the home was not ready, the framing was not finished, the sheet rock had not been installed in the necessary areas for us to complete our job. The framing that was in was set at 24 inch center not 16 like we were told during our walk through. At no additional cost to the customer we sent the proper sized insulation out to the site to be installed. We completed everything that could be done that day and let [member name removed] know a $250 trip charge would be attached to his account for having to send a crew out for an additional trip at a later date. [member name removed] called the next day with issues regarding his ventilation of his restroom fans. Our work order specifically says and bath vents that vent into the open attic would have hose attached to them so they can vent to the nearest roof/gable vent as standard with all of our attic insulation projects. [member name removed] was trying to get us to run several bath vents on the first floor, and main level through his floor joist to vent out of the other end of the home with vent hoods installed. This was neither discussed with our sales rep nor was it anywhere in the contract. The last email I received from [member name removed], he apologized and noted that after the evaluation by our competitor our materials had been installed properly. He also stated he would not be posting anything vindictive online or on Angie's List. Long story short, I hope for the future sake of this company we can avoid customers like this at all cost. We deal with a lot of homeowners and contractors, we take pride in the work we do, and we genuinely offer customer service as I believe it is a rare thing. Unfortunately this was a situation that I feel would have ended this way no matter what efforts we made.

They were okay. They spilled some stuff on my floor in my basement. I didn’t like the fact that they were here only for two hours and the guy had to use my toilet. I don’t know how their work was until winter till it gets really cold out and see if there is an improvement in my car place which they insulated. I thought what they proposed was a good idea but I won’t know until winter. They were here right back after couple of days to fix the problem. They were punctual.

For the Big Deal service, they went all throughout the house and he was very thorough and that was great. Therefore, we decided to employ their services, but it took us a long time to decide because there were several options. When we finally decided, they came out and did a great job and they made sure everything was done properly. They accidentally broke a light fixture when they were working in the attic and they replaced it. I thought it was very nice of them. They also cleaned up very well after the job.
