The work was completely promptly. The two employees who sprayed the foam were professional and responsive. Whitson had the better price of the quotes I received and they did a nice job.
Description of Work: Our basement rim joist and one basement closet wall were insulated with closed cell spray foam.

No problems at all. I got a first estimate from another contractor and it was $1500. Got estimate from Whitson and it was $500. Got a third estimate and it was again $1500. I questioned Brian regarding the difference in price because someone in my association told me I must be "comparing apples to oranges." In actuality, Brian's estimate was more comprehensive than the $1500 estimates - Whitson was going to fill my bulkheads as well as the attic. I could not be happier with my dealings with Whitson - and it was done in a timely fashion. They cleaned up after themselves too! I would definitely recommend Whitson!
Description of Work: Attic insulation (blown-in).

We had terrible ice on our roof last winter and had ice dams that caused water to back up into our house. Brian was very quick to come as soon as I called in Feb. He came right out and had answers to all my question and great suggestions on what need to be done to fix the problems causing us ice dams. Brian came out and left his crew to do the work. They did the job in a timely manner and cleaned up the mess perfectly. They had one area that they could not get to because of the ice and snow on the roof. They promised they would be back in the spring and I took them at their word and paid the bill in full. They didn't come back in the spring because of being very busy. I kept calling (and calling) and they finally came back on June 5th to finish the job. I would hire them again they did a good job.
Description of Work: Removed existing batt insulation from the roof rafters in the attic spaces. Move heat duct in attic space to get it off roof and move it to interior wall instead. Protect water lines in attic space to keep from freezing. Insulate attic access covers. Re-insulate with loose blown fiberglass installed on the first floor attic spaces behind knee walls. Cut access in second floor closet to gain access to the ceiling area of second floor.

They were pleasant to work with and did exactly what we requested. I have since been in the attic and can see that the coverage isn't as even as I would hope. It is an odd space, though, and tough to traverse so it might be as good as possible.
Description of Work: Had additional blown insulation added to approx 2k sq ft of attic space. Had bat insulation added to attic utility room.

I obtained several bids, including a bid from my best friend. Whitson was by far the least expensive. The Whitson techs were very professional and experienced (20+ years). Brian Whitson took his time to answer all of my questions to ensure I knew what needed to be done and completed the job to his specs. Thank you Whitson Insulation.
Description of Work: blew 11.1 inches of loose blown fiberglass into my attic area (1108 sq feet), fix stove vent.
