Over promised and under delivered

Back wall and crawl space spray foam job.

Quoted 3 inches on back wall, 5 inches on floor joists, and 2 inches on exterior block foundation wall (their own contract states +/- 1/2 inch)

What was got was a complete patch job with some areas left with less than 1 inch of spray foam! Not to mention the INCREDIBLE mess they left behind - foam literally EVERYWHERE which took hours to clean up and prep for sheathing

When I called to get an explanation the sales rep was rude and acted like I was unable to measure (3 inches of a 2x4 still showing is pretty clear to me)

After insisting they come back to complete the job, they came back and added MAYBE 1/2 inch additional foam, still not even close to a complete job.

This was our first winter with this "new" insulation and our floor and room is colder than when we had 40 year old Batt Insulation

For almost 4K in insulation I expected company that would take pride in what they do, instead I got another typical contractor rush job.

I would not use, call or recommend this company again

Mould Removal & Insulation Replacement in Attic

I greatly appreciate the work done by Trevor, Jamie, Judy, Dave, and Chris. Trevor was thorough and quick with his feedback on the work needed to be done on my house. The coordination with the mould services removal team was seamless. All the crews arrived early, completed the work efficiently, and left the place tidy. Dave and Chris even went the extra mile to help patch a hole in the ceiling drywall that was damaged by accident from another contractor. I highly recommend these crews.

Attic insulation top-up

Chris & John arrived and explained what they were going to do. They clearly demonstrated pride in their work. Chris installed baffles in the first half of the visit. While they were out for a brief break, I stuck my head up in the attic and was amazed at the air circulation. I know that this is a good thing, but as I'd had a look around the week prior, I was surprised at the incredible difference in temperature and freshness of the air. They finished the job and I took another look. They were careful to take care of a couple of concerns that I had mentioned. They did the job politely, quickly, and thoroughly. Since then, we've had a few warmer days, and the effect on the upper floor of the house has been quite noticeable. We're looking forward to a much more comfortable summer this year! We have referred Insta-Insulation to a relative who is now interested in having an attic top-up done.

Great service

I contacted Insta-Insulation after discovering only 4-5" (R18?) of blown-in cellulose insulation in my attic.

Trevor inspected my attic and gave me an estimate to upgrade my insulation to R50 levels. He noted that the builder also failed to adequately ventilate the attic. His estimate included baffles in every rafter bay. Baffles prevent the insulation from blocking the soffit vents -- and allows air to circulate within the attic.

A few days prior to the install date, I received a reminder email which also included preparation tips (e.g. if the attic hatch is in the closet, clear its contents).

The installation crew called me 30 minutes prior to their arrival. Dave and Chris were professional and courteous. They also allowed me to take a peek at what they were doing in the attic. The process from start-to-finish was about 2 hours.

Insta-Insulation offers competitive pricing and great service. I highly recommend them.

Attic insulation removal and replacement

We hired Insta-Insulation to suck out our blown fiberglass insulation from our attic and to reinstall rafter baffles and blown cellulose. Our sales rep/consultant Jason S was very thorough, informative and reachable. The team that removed our insulation was great and the team that came to replace our insulation was also great. I don't have any complaints and would recommend Insta-Insulation to anyone needing insulation services.
