Mindy & Paul, the owners of Peterson Energy were very knowledgeable and helpful. Following the onsite inspection of my home, Paul made suggestions on what was needed to get the best bang for the buck in materials and labor. He also pointed out a couple of places that needed to be repaired. The insulation project was preceded by installation of 3 SolaTube units and a solar powered attic exhaust fan. All told I am very happy with the price quoted and the quality of the work performed.

Peterson did a great job and worked efficiently. We had one small issue discovered after the job and they were extremely helpful to come back for resolution. We will be using them again this spring for an attic fan installation and possible Solatube.

Paul, Mindy and the team did a fabulous job insulating the crawl space under my family room and installing new insulation in the attic. The vents are finally blowing out warm air in the family room! The team was professional, friendly and hard working. I would definitely recommend them!

Mindy and Paul were great to work with. They were very knowledgeable about their business and gave excellent advice to help me make better decisions. I was completely satisfied with their work and would give them an excellent rating and recommend them to anyone needing any type of insulation work. This job was a 60 year old house that needed attic insulation to be brought up to date. Because of a hip roof baffles needed to be installed to allow proper air circulation. They also foam sealed the top of all interior walls, light boxes, and any plumbing or other breaks from the ceiling to the attic. Thank you for an excellent job!

Paul is very knowledgeable, thoughtful and easy to work with. Our two story home was significantly colder and uncomfortable on the second floor during the winter. Paul did an energy audit of our home and thoroughly explained how the heat was escaping to the attic. His friendly, professional crew foam sealed the attic leaks and blew in much needed additional insulation. We are very pleased with the results. The house is warmer and so much more comfortable!

Paul and his crew were very professional and thorough. Our home is a remodel and has standard height ceilings, cathedral ceilings and masonry construction. Paul suggested and gave detail about various energy saving applications for our home. Paul also informed us about the applications that qualified for a Federal tax credit, as well as provided the Federal tax credit forms. Peterson Energy Consultants Inc. EXCEEDED our expectations! We highly recommend this company. The insulation services that were done at our home were Spray foam, Solar guard radiant barrier, Fiber-Attic cellulose insulation, Borate formula cellulose to garage attic, Solar attic fan, Solar guard and Sound control. Thanks!

Paul and his crew were professional and very thorough in providing me with products I needed to make sure my crawlspace would always be dry and temperature controlled. In doing so they assured that I would never have to bother with it again. I no longer see any daylight out of my basement of crawlspace and should be toasty warm in my house this winter. As a plus, they also took care of my spider problem!

I actually had 2 Solatubes installed in my bathrooms (not skylights). The workers were very neat - covering the floor from the front door, down the hall and into the bathrooms, as well as covering the sink and tub. I now have 4 Solatubs and love them. They also vacuumed before they left.

Paul is absolutely fantastic and personal. He will take the time to look over your project and give you recommendations how to complete your project. He doesn't oversell, nor undersell what you need to do to get desirable results. A perfect balance. The crew was very courteous and cleaned up. I had them do air sealing in my attic and then blow cellulose over the top of old fiberglass to get a better heat barrier from the attic. They also installed vent baffles and cut holes in my bird blocks since I don't have soffit ventilation. The end result was a much more comfortable home in the upper level of my 2-story and my A/C doesn't run all the time as it used to. Really outstanding work.

Paul and team were thorough, efficient, and most of honest. Paul offered a number on f options for resolving my energy loss issues, and was very thorough in the description of each of the services. The completion of the work was fast and efficient and everything was explained, followed up with before and after photos and then when the work was completed Paul contacted me afterwards to ensure I was happy with the work!! I would recommend Paul's company to anyone looking for a real pro!!

I had a great experience with Paul and his crews. They removed old insulation, arranged for it to be tested for asbestos, and then blew in new cellulose insulation. I would definitely recommend this company!
