    From initial communication and receiving a quote, to the explanation of the steps and process of insulation installation, I was very impressed with the professionalism and attention to detail from Chris and his team. I would absolutely refer AARCO to family and friends! I had about 1-2 inches of insulation left and AARCO brought it up to the standard amount needed and checked off some other needs in my attic. Chris is not only professional and considerate in working with the homeowner and resident pup, but I also noticed the kind and thoughtful way he communicates with his team members. I will always support a business that is run that way!

    Great quick and efficient job by Scott, Nick, and Chris. The job was done right 100%. If anyone is in need of attic insulation work to be done I strongly recommend Scott and his crew at AARCO. You can see in the pictures in the before and after along with pics where Scott sprayed insulation foam around conduit going from attic to main floor to prevent air drafts and created a attic door buffer using foam as a wall to keep loose insulation from falling through if attic door is opened. He also put a sheet of insulation above the attic door to prevent any drafts.

    After in my secondary attic area

    Scott was great to work with. He came out promptly when I called for an estimate. I had the estimate later that evening. The pricing was very fair. Installation day went great. Scott and his team laid down tarps and plastic to keep my space clean. Scott has me take a look as he finished each section. He also sent before and after photos of the work. highly recommend Scott and AARCO. He's honest, upfront, and does quality work.

I'm not sure what his basis is for who he treats properly and who he doesn't but I absolutely would not recommend his services. Every piece of my gutter he replaced, still leaks and the gutters overflow worse than they did before he touched them. I reached out to him and received an excuse about him having health issues. He said he'd be back out to resolve the issues. That was March 2nd, 2026. I haven't seen Bob, but I do see posts stating he's been working on other homes. The disrespect is amazing. It's a good thing I have all of our text messages saved because this guy robbed me. Don't believe these reviews. I don't know who's writing them but I can't imagine receiving topnotch service from a guy who didn't resolve any issues and ran away with a woman's money. There's also an animal still living in my attic. The BBB and court is next. I want my money back. If he thinks I'm going to keep reminding him to do his job, he has another thing coming. Oh, and to this day - there's still a trap on the top of my house. It's been there for 6 months. I'll upload pictures and text messages when I get time.

    Our whole experience was wonderful from beginning to end in working with Jim and his team…read more Jim and his team were punctual, professional, and easy to communicate with either by phone or email. Jim's initial assessment of what we needed felt very honest and he spent a lot of time answering our questions and helping to educate us on why he recommended certain things and not other things based on our home and what he saw in our attic. The price we were quoted felt fair based on the work that was needed, and the rebate that Jim was able to offer was also a gamechanger. We'd happily work with Jim and his team again for our energy related needs. For context the work that we had done was having additional blown-in insulation added to get up to code, sealing gaps & air leaks, and adding weather stripping around our hatch to create a better seal.

    After getting multiple quotes for air sealing and insulation for my attic, I decided to work with…read moreJim from Energy360 Solutions. While other assessors came across with a salesman approach, Jim was super practical and realistic from the start about my options. Like I was initially set on getting cellulose for my attic, but Jim pointed out some limitations given the age and construction of my home (condo built in the 1970s). He mentioned examples of older places with cellulose developing issues like sagging ceilings. No other assessor mentioned this, so deciding to work with Jim was an easy choice. He was honest and only recommended what worked best for my situation. As of writing this review, it's been over 2 weeks since his crew came and completed both air sealing and insulation. Before, my second floor would always had a 4 to 5 degree temperature difference from my main floor. Since their work, there is no significant difference. I even checked the temperature consistently for a few days just to make sure. Whatever they did, it's made a huge difference! Overall, I'm very happy with Jim, his team, and the quality of work they provided.

While he was there to provide the quote, he noticed the kitchen floor was really cold (he took off his shoes when he entered the house). He pulled out his thermal camera and we saw the floor was 30-40F! I had noticed that area of the kitchen was cold in winter, but didn't realize it was coming from the floor, where kitchen is cantilevered out past the foundation wall. He proposed insulating the cantilevered area with spray foam, and then said he could insulate all the rim joists in the basement for the same price. A week or so later, while he was onsite doing the insulating, I mentioned I was going to finish the basement later in the year, and expected to use 3 inch foam panels. He suggested using spray foam instead since that would give me a few inches more space in the room. He gave me a price and I said I'd think about it. As I thought about it, I realized getting a few more inches in the room, and also getting a better sealing product would be worth it, and would save me many hours of labor and a lot of material costs. In summer, I started work on the basement project, and once I had the framing up and electrical roughed in, I called (now July) to schedule the spray foam. Randy honored the price from January, scheduled the job quickly, and it looks great! Something I especially appreciate about Randy and Paragon is that the guy who quotes the job actually does the job; it's not some sales guy, it's the owner who quotes AND does the work! Because of that, any questions get answered and you know exactly who is accountable for quality and completion. I did get other quotes for the attic, and Paragon was very competitive. I really appreciated Randy's suggestions, and they did not feel like a sales pitch; it felt like I was getting good options to consider that would solve a problem I had.

    Nobody enjoys pouring money into the parts of their home they never see -- attics, crawl spaces,…read moreand the like. But when those areas need attention, it's essential that the work is done right and by someone you can trust. Randy and the team at Paragon Insulation & Services delivered an experience I'd recommend to anyone. My attic was poorly ventilated -- damp, musty, and overdue for attention. After deciding to bring in a professional, Randy came out to my home, thoroughly assessed the problem areas, and put together a detailed quote on the spot. The scope of work included removal of the existing insulation, air sealing around all attic entry points, sanitizing, air baffle installation, and installation of new Weather Blanket cellulose insulation. The new cellulose achieves an R-value that meets or exceeds Illinois code requirements. Paragon's pricing was competitive, though admittedly a bit higher than some of the larger corporate outfits. What made the difference was Randy's willingness to walk me through the entire plan and clearly explain what justified the investment. That transparency, combined with the comfort of working with a local, owner-operated business, made the decision easy. The crew came in and completed the job in about half a day -- fast, efficient, and clean. The entire process was documented with photos and videos, all of which were included with the final invoice. While up in the attic, they even took the time to correct some substandard work a prior contractor had left behind on my bathroom exhaust fans. I couldn't be happier with the results. I've already noticed a meaningful improvement in temperature consistency and overall comfort throughout my home. If you're looking for a trustworthy, professional insulation contractor, I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Paragon Insulation & Services.

I told the rep that other companies have inspected our home and stated that our walls are suitable for blown in insulation. ARC never came to visit our home - while their competitors did this as a standard account management cycle. Fast forward to this week, I was ready to sign the agreement and pay the deposit - the rep asked me to confirm the 2x4 framing. I asked him how he wanted me to do this - he suggested I drill pilot holes in each wall or pay a 3rd party to do this and that ARC was not responsible for verifying the details of our home. Not responsible for validating a critical project detail before having you customer pay thousands of dollars?! Extremely poor customer service and frankly, a lazy sales team. I am sure the crews doing the work are great, but the accounts team could use a refresh. I will work with a competitor unless ARC has employees willing to visit their prospective customers!
