In October of 2024 I had the most excellent good fortune to work with Greenlink Energy Solutions as…read morepart of an ComEd Home Energy Efficiency project that included replacement of the furnace/a.c. and water heater, as well as top to bottom weatherization of my house. Even before the project started both Olivia and Jarron took the time to answer any questions and address any concerns I had regarding the equipment being installed and the overall scope of the project. Day 1, first up was a couple of electrical guys, quickly followed by Jarron and his HVAC team, Ben & Ryan. All on time and ready to get to it. Professional, pleasant and remarkably tolerant of my nonstop questions about the systems, the guys went to work and, other than a quick lunch break, worked nonstop, not particularly concerned about the clock but more about getting to a reasonable stopping place for the day. By the time they were finished, everything was operational, square and plumb, all pipes, valves, duct work and conduit looking very slick, orderly and professional. (5 stars just on the sheet metal work alone). Next up was the weatherization team with Nick leading the charge. Again, on time and ready to go. These guys, Zarek, Steven and Danial, came in with a plan and went right two it, peeling off to address varying issues and again, once on the ground it was go time for these guys. Remarkably, all willing and ready to jump in to even the less desirable parts of the project (like who really wants to go into a hot attic and crawl around in the corners? But they did it and with no hesitation or whining). Over all there were several things that impressed me about the Greenlink teams. There is the obvious stuff, like the punctuality and, remarkably, the through cleanup at the end of each day, and also the obvious work ethic, mutual respect amongst the team members and easy and informative communication with me. I think what was the most reassuring though, you could see the obvious pride the Greenlink people take in their work and, just as importantly, the obvious pride they take in working as part of the Greenlink team. That says a lot. I would not hesitate to recommend Greenlink Energy Solutions to anyone. I suspect my neighbors are already tired of hearing about how good they are.

ARC…read moreprovided a quote ( without visiting our home) that included the following sentence, "Please confirm exterior walls are framed 2x4". 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!

I was not charged for the inspection, but was recommended some insulation work, based on what he saw. I will absolutely be using them for ANY work in the future.
