Testimonials

Robert Moore was very knowledgeable and knew exactly what we needed during our attic assessment. He has a ton of experience in insulating attics. It was a no brainer to hire ARC Insulation after speaking with Robert. The crew that did the job was fantastic as well. They cleaned up after themselves and were very neat and organized while performing the job. The crew made sure everything was good with me before leaving the house.

This was a fairly large job of adding significant insulation in my attic. They also added ventilation chutes and weather stripping in several areas. From start to finish, these guys were extremely professional. They came on time, reviewed the specifics of the job, and answered all of my questions. They were neat and courteous. Upon completion, they showed me before-and-after pics of the work. For the work they did, they were high-quality yet cost-competitive. I would highly recommend them!

This is, in my opinion and experience, one of the few companies in the industry that really does a fantastic job. They delivered exactly what was quoted/scoped with a fantastic customer response and service from the beginning of scheduling for an estimate to the very end. The estimator came on-time and well equipped, answered all my questions/concerns with pictures of areas of my attic needing attention and how to go about addressing those problem areas, and scheduled the delivery team to start the project. The delivery team cleaned up after themselves, and the crew packed up quietly and even left my driveway cleared of any insulation. I am so proud, satisfied and honored to give ARC Insulation and their teamwork & workmanship a well-deserved 5 stars.

Very professional and reasonably priced company. I had an insulation project done at my house, and ARC Insulation did a great job. Matt was easy to work with and very knowledgeable. Couldn’t be happier with their work!

I finally found someone who I could trust to fix my frozen pipe issue in an honest, caring, reliable, and affordable manner. I had ARC Insulation insulate my garage and kitchen, after the builder sold me a home with shoddy insulation. Jay arrived on time for an estimate. He is honest and professional. HIs team kept me informed, and during his work, my frozen pipe thawed. When I asked his team for the bill, they said not to worry– just call the office. No hassles. Well done! I highly recommend ARC.

Robert came out to evaluate our insulation needs and was very honest and straightforward. They were very responsive with a quote and service appointment. The work was done efficiently, professionally, and they cleaned up the entire work area until it was spotless. Thank you, Robert!

They did a great job. I’m very happy with the work that was done, and the results have blown me away. The changes in the temperature inside my house were immediate. The added bonus was with the power company rebates, the price was way under other quotes I got for far more work.

Great company to work with! 5 stars all the way. They were easy to work with, and the professional team they sent was outstanding. I wish we would have done this years ago. I can feel the difference in my home already!

Tom went above and beyond to help me with a problem ARC Insulation found after completing my insulation job. He was very concerned about a high carbon monoxide reading from my water heater. My home warranty company gave me the run around, and he kept following up with me and made sure the problem was fixed!

It went great! I had 3 companies quote, & his quote was right in line with others. Jay came out to give me an estimate. He was very knowledgeable, answered all my questions, and wasn’t in a hurry to get in and get out. I learned several things that day. Building science is super interesting. Quote was emailed back to me very quickly, and it detailed exactly everything to be done. Both crews were quick, courteous, efficient, cleaned up, again answered all the questions I asked (as I stood on the ladder looking at completed insulation), showed me pictures, and helped me fill in a cold glass block window with thick insulation board. One thing wasn’t completed, and Jay followed up twice to make sure it was scheduled and completed. It was really nice not to have to chase someone down to do what that said they would do. Very pleased with everything involved. I could tell the difference that night. Nice & snug. Looking forward to smaller bills and especially a warmer house. Bring on the winter! I would definitely highly recommend and use again in another house. Thank you, Jay, Louis, and Enrique. Great work!

Short version: ARC Insulation insulated the crawlspace of our small c1890 apartment building with a thick plastic vapor barrier and closed cell foam around all the foundation walls. Price was very reasonable for the scale and difficulty of the job. Tenants report it feels much warmer than before. We’re very happy with the work. Long version: We learned from ground floor tenants of the small apartment building we’d bought that in the winter their floors were very cold–to the point that they wanted to move when their lease was up. Also we learned there had been a problem in the past with water pipes freezing. Yikes. This sounded like a problem that maybe couldn’t be solved. Research revealed that proper foam insulation and a vapor barrier in the crawlspace could work, but we worried that the crawlspace was too small to work in. Fortunately, ARC Insulation was one of the companies that I called to get an estimate from, and they really solved the problem for us. Kevin was the estimator. He made thorough notes and cautioned me about the limitations of the job: might need to cut holes in floors to get access, might not be able to get to all of the space, and so on. I appreciated his frankness. His estimate was very reasonable, we thought, especially as it was actually lower than another company that proposed only foaming the underside of the floor (which would have left the water pipes exposed to cold). We asked Kevin for extra-heavy plastic vapor barrier, which was a slight upcharge, but the job was done exactly to the estimate despite some headaches the guys ran into when doing it. This was a VERY tough job, as much of the crawlspace is ‘crawl on your belly’ rather than ‘hands and knees’ and access was only through two small panels in closets. It was uneven dirt surface down there, strewn with old construction debris and 120 years of spiderwebs. I would not want to get down there! But Jesus from ARC and his co-worker (both small guys) managed it. They showed up right on time, laid down plastic, and got to work, first pulling up the worst of the debris, then laying down the plastic, then foaming. Considering what they had to do and how awkward the space was, they were amazingly fast and thorough. Jesus was great about letting us know what was going on, especially as they did run into some issues as we expected. The guys were able to get to about 90% of the crawlspace, only missing an area where the dirt is almost up to the joists. (Jesus showed me pics.) That part they walled off and foamed as if it were an exterior wall. Tenants report the room above that is colder but they use it as a closet. (The solution there would have been removing dirt bucket by bucket prison-break style and would have taken days!) Jesus did have to cut two holes about 18″ sq. to get access due to internal walls in the crawlspace. Both holes were done so neatly we were able to put the cut flooring right back down—the square in the hardwood floor living area will need re-doing some day, but it’s under a rug now. I have looked into the crawlspace a couple of times since this work was done, and it is now clean and dry and much warmer than the exterior. We no longer have to worry about the water pipes down there freezing. It even smells okay! It’s a night-and-day difference, and as it makes the apartments above more comfortable and our tenants happy, it was well worth the expense. We are happy to recommend ARC Insulation and would certainly use them again. In fact we plan to have them come do a small crawlspace under an enclosed porch on our house. That area has pink fiberglass insulation already but as we know now, that does nothing compared to foam. One note I’ll add for people in the city in particular: the compressor and barrel of foam stay on the ARC truck, and the guys run a long hose in. You may need to secure parking for the truck in front of or beside your house for the hose run to work.

ARC Insulation added spray foam insulation to the attic ceiling and knee walls to finish as a third floor suite. It went great. They were able to answer all my questions in a timely/honest manner. We did not want to add insulation to one wall since we will be replacing the window on that wall and reconfiguring the window size. They worked out a solution that minimized the double expense but used air sealing to maximize comfort.

The team was able to schedule on short notice due to another customer cancelling. They arrived on time and went over the work previously described in their proposal. The team was professional and clean. The work looks great. They answered any and all questions. They also expanded their scope of work slightly to insulate an additional section of the house. Overall very pleased and would recommend. They are not the cheapest, but I believe the quality more than makes up for it, and I would recommend them to a friend. I worked with Graham and appreciate his thoroughness and advice.

Knowledgeable, prompt, and went the extra mile to fix my issue. Cleaned up great, good price, very good to deal with. I would recommend them to anyone.

I highly recommend this company. They did a very beautiful job in my attic insulation and also installed two roof vents. The stuff is very professional. Everything was on time. All work was done cleanly. Special thanks to Michael.

Chris, the field technician/sales manager who handled our account, was very pleasant and professional. He wasn’t just looking to just make a quick buck — he consulted, offered advice, and a couple times said he didn’t think what we asked was necessary. He answered all our questions (multiple times) and spent three times as long with us as the other companies we got estimates from. The work the team competed for us was done on time, to our high standards, and they cleaned everything up! Excellent service. Highly recommended.

Amazing experience front to finish. I got my attic completely insulated. When I was quoted, I was walked through the process and felt completely understanding of what I was getting. Up until the project started, I was kept in the loop, and that carried through the project. We did shop around when we were looking, and we had by far the best experience with ARC Insulation.

The presentation by Matt Ward was very informative, thorough, and well presented. He spent a considerable amount of time in the attic to determine what was needed. ARC Insulation does extensive before-and-after air infiltration reduction tests and performed every service on the estimate.
The work by all employees was courteous, professional, and fast, and cleanup was exceptional with a very competitive price. I would highly recommend them for any services they perform

Very professional. On time. No BS. They encapsulated our tri-level crawlspace with closed cell foam. Super effective. Crawlspace is now warm. Main level floors are warmer. Not as hot upstairs. Furnace runs less.

ARC Insulation really worked quickly to address a dangerous situation at our house, and did a fantastic job. With subzero temperatures in the forecast and a history of pipes freezing in the bathroom positioned over the garage, Kevin from ARC was out on the same day I called. They had an opening in the afternoon and came on the SAME DAY and re-insulated my garage to stop the pipes from freezing. Now that we’ve gotten through the historically cold weather, I can safely say that Kevin and his team fixed the problem. They were friendly and helpful throughout. I would highly recommend.

ARC Insulation did a fantastic job insulating our 1950s Cape Cod style house. The upstairs used to get so hot that we couldn’t even sleep up there, even when we had the AC unit on all the time. Now it’s perfect! Their estimator was on time, very thorough in his inspection, and spent all the time we needed to explain everything. Their installers were polite, neat, and did an outstanding job of cleaning up. We are so happy that the upstairs bedrooms are finally cool enough to sleep in again! I highly recommend ARC to anyone who has a hot upstairs.

My home inspector said that I needed more insulation in my attic, so I got several quotes from different companies. ARC Insulation, from the very start, was super impressive. Their estimator was extremely knowledgeable and was the only one to actually go all the way up into the attic to inspect it. He took pictures of what he found and explained what he recommended and why. Their pricing was very competitive, and they also offered the instant utility rebates, which made the price better than everyone else’s. The installation went perfectly, and they were all done in just one day. The very next day, I noticed my air conditioner was not running nearly as much. If I could give ARC 10 stars, I would. They really are that good!

So glad we had them come out and give us an evaluation and an estimate. They were really easy to deal with — the team that came out was so professional and neat. They really worked hard, and the best thing is I can feel the difference in our home. We should have invested in this 20 years ago!

Excellent work! Nice people, very responsive and professional, and so CLEAN! I am telling you, there were no pieces of insulation anywhere in my house or driveway when they left.

Chris was very professional and prompt. He called when he was running 15 minutes late and was respectful of our home. He immediately knew that the discoloration in the insulation under our crawlspace in the sunroom was airflow filtration and not mold. He thoroughly examined the attic area and made recommendations to remove plastic around insulation to avoid any moisture problems. He even went so far to look above garage and examine an additional space for any problems. I would highly recommend ARC Insulation. He did not charge for the assessment as no insulation work was needed. I so appreciated his expertise.

The quote / inspection was extremely detailed compared to others we had out to quote. A much smaller and cheaper scope of work was quoted than the other company we had out, which didn’t spend much time in the house. In addition, when doing the inspection, they pointed out some loose ducting tape which could be fixed with $5 of tape and increase our HVAC pressure. Scheduling was easy. Crew showed up on time and was extremely professional. Work was done in a timely manner, and cleanup was excellent. Obviously, there was dust and some random bits of insulation here and there, but for how much work they did, it was surprisingly low impact on us. They were excellent about laying down cover in all rooms and stairways. The only thing I can’t comment on is the quality of their work, as it was for a heating issue, and we won’t be able to tell until fall / winter.

We live in a 2-story colonial, and the 2nd floor was excessively warmer over the summer than the 1st floor (beyond usual heat rising), which created unusually high electric bills. Graham completed a thorough whole-house assessment, pointing out other reasons why the 2nd floor was so warm beyond obvious needs of adding attic insulation. He also pointed out errors in pre-existing recessed lights on the 2nd floor, and ways to increase insulation in basement too. We obtained other estimates, and ARC was the most expensive, but also the most comprehensive. The work was completed to the highest standards. Graham was on site while the work was being completed, and showed pictures (before/after) of the attic insulation. He was also available for weeks later to answer questions to help us further reduce our monthly electric bill. Beyond the quality of actual work completed, the attention to detail and convenient customer service makes me complete my review, noting high recommendations without any reservations.

ARC Insulation increased our attic insulation from R15/R19 to R45. It went well. The guys were clean and punctual. Chris was a pleasure to work with and was very easy to talk to throughout the process.

Estimate given in timely manner (same day) work done in less than a day by polite crew who protected path through house with plastic, so no mess. No problems at all. I would recommend this company to anyone who needs attic insulation . Greatest thing with the utility rebate (which they took care of). Work was a bit less than estimate.

We worked with Grace who came out quickly to give us a quote. The price had to be negotiated down, but we ended up with a very good price. They had to call off one day after they started the job, but still finished within our time frame. The blown in insulation keeps the house very quiet. They really did a nice job with all the fire caulking they had to do and foaming around the windows. Currently, even though the house is not done, we are able to heat the house with a temporary undersized furnace. They really did a nice job!
