I had an energy assessment done through PECO and then was given a few preferred contractors including this company. I met with Ben and have spent the last 4 months attempting to get a quote on the work we discussed. After following up again today I was informed that they will not send over the estimate. If you want to waste your time and don’t care if someone gets back to you then you have found the right company.
Description of Work: Follow up on PECO energy assessment.

I have lived in my house for two years, and have had problems with rooms that wouldn't get cool in the summer (despite central air conditioning), or stay warm in the winter. I had to move my bedroom after the first summer and winter, and could not comfortably sit for long in my living room. I replaced all my windows with triple paned ones in March 2020, which made little difference. I had PECO do an energy assessment of my home last spring. Home Energy & Comfort was on PECO's list of recommended contractors. I researched them further, and their reviews were impressive. I soon found out why. Gordon Clark, one of the co-owners, and a crew of three to four workers spent two days at my home in early June 2020. To make a long story short, they insulated everywhere that needed it (including the garage which is underneath my living room), air sealed gaps and cracks where needed, sealed up ducts, spray foamed rim and band-joist area, and did air seal blowing tests before and after the work. The team was always polite and respectful, and masked due to the Coronavirus. They protected everywhere they worked with plastic sheets and tarps, and cleaned up well afterward. They also did all the work to submit paperwork for rebates from PECO, and deducted the rebate amounts from my bill rather than have me wait for them. This has honestly been the best money I have invested in my home. The hot days have shown me the vast improvement in energy efficiency. I was able to move my bedroom back to the bigger room in the southwest corner, which is now very comfortable. An added bonus is the reduction of dust in my home. I am very happy I chose Home Energy & Comfort to do the work in my home!

The job went very well. They were careful and diligent and took the time to understand my priorities for the project. They did a great job and worked with me to resolve the small hitches that tend to come up in projects.
Description of Work: I had Ben and Gordon in after having a home energy audit and it was time to fix some of the things the audit found. They did a thorough review of the audit report as well as their own assessment, and worked with me on a thorough plan to improve both the efficiency and the comfort of the house.

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. While we obviously want to have great reviews, it's certainly your right to share whatever your experience was. I also feel badly that our phone conversation did not go very well. I started this company because I truly love helping people and in my 18 years in this industry (and hopefully many more), I'd like to think that I've done just that. Of course, that would not be possible without the great work of my partner and all of our hard working employees. I certainly tried my best to understand what your goals for the project were, but admittedly, I had a hard time dealing with the tone and language you used on our call. I generally think of myself as a pretty patient person, but maybe I wasn't at my best that day. I'll certainly work on that! In any case, once the expletives started coming at me I felt that there was not much left to do other than end our call. This is the only time I have ever felt that hanging up on a potential customer was the best thing to do...and I certainly hope it's the last! I also hope that you were able to find someone to help you out with your project and achieve the goals you had in mind for your home.

Before having the work done our bathroom would be freezing, we would have to run a space heater once the temperatures would get below 40 degrees. Since we had the work done in December 2016, we have not had to use the space heater at all. Our shower line would freeze if the temperature would get into the 20s and so far so good. I was really surprised how the work they did made a huge difference! They were very nice from the introduction meeting to the installation work. I highly recommend them!
Description of Work: They added insulation to our attic area, added covers over our recessed lighting in the attic, added spray form to open areas in the attic and the basement.

Then owners were extremely knowledgeable. The work was completed in an efficient and timely manner. We were running our heat well over 80 degrees just to keep the house warm. After the insulation, now we keep the home at 70-72 degrees. I cant say enough about the service. They were able to fit us in 2 days before Christmas after they seen how cold it was in the home.
Description of Work: They provided attic insulation and whole house air sealing.

The morning of our appointment, Gordon showed up promptly. Our attic was sealed, our bathroom vent fan was properly vented and our insulation was installed. I was very pleased with the professionalism and quality of services provided at our home. The vent for our bathroom was properly installed and I am very happy to finally have a properly functioning vent fan in our bathroom. The insulation in our attic is amazing and we have already noticed a substantial difference in the comfort level in our home. I cannot believe how much warmer our home is...I am quite shocked in the difference.
Description of Work: Ben came to our home and did a quite thorough examination of our attic. He left us know where we had air leaks, what had to be sealed, what needed to be corrected and what insulation we needed. He also helped us solve the condensation problem in our attic. Ben was very understanding when we had some problems (on our end) with scheduling and was very accommodating to our schedule.

From the moment Gordon and Ben of Home Energy and Comfort arrived, the entire process was done timely, efficiently, neatly and with minimal disruption to the routine of everyone in the home. Ben and Gordon were a pleasure to have in my home and left the house and outside as clean and neat as they found it. (they had to climb 2 staircases newly carpeted) My home feels noticeably warmer and I would recommend Home Energy and Comfort to anyone needing their services with Two Thumbs up.

First, let me say that Ben and Gordon are really great guys that are a pleasure to do business with. No BS, they don't take you for a ride, they show up when they say they will, give you a fair and honest quote, and stick to it. They were fantastic with scheduling and had 2 different days of the project adjusted to fit my schedule. When doing the attic, they noticed when doing the baffles that there wasn't enough airflow coming in. Gordon went outside, removed some of the soffit siding very carefully, drilled holes, and replaced the venting so you can't even tell anything was done. Instead of me having to coordinate and find someone to come out and do this, Gordon made it easy and didn't add much to the bill; certainly less than a siding contractor would have, and it was much easier. The crew was clean, neat, and answered any questions I had. The house is so much warmer now it is amazing and well worth the money. They got each part of the job done quickly. I've referred them to other friends and they also are very satisfied. I wish I had more work to give them; it is difficult to find a contractor you can trust and who is so responsive.
Description of Work: I broke my project up into 2 parts: 1) air sealing the attic, venting the bathroom fans through the roof, and taking my insulation from R12 to R49 using a blown in product. and then 2) Spray foaming the rim joists in the basement around the whole perimeter of the house

I can't say enough how great this company is. They were very affordable but put that aside for a moment they were knowledgeable and enthusiastic, hard working and all around great people. I would recommend them 100% of the time. I am so happy I used Home Energy and Comfort to help make my home more efficient. They went way above and beyond my expectations. Search no further, from one Angie's List user to another THIS is the company use should use.
Description of Work: Full attic insulation R49, insulation of stairwell to attic and built an insulated box around the whole house fan. I was going to take on this project myself but pretty quickly decided to hire someone. I couldn't be happier with my choice to use Home Energy and Comfort!
