This included, exclusion work, duct replacement, insulation replacement, sanitation, and even replacement of HVAC registers. Trying to address each one of these individually with different vendors proved costly, but these guys could do it all.

I highly recommend you give the Attic Masters a try for anything attic related.

Our HVAC contractor recommended pairing the new setup with fresh insulation and a radiant barrier to get the most out of our AC, so we got several quotes. 911 Attic Insulation came in mid-range on price, but they were the only company to include crawl space rodent proofing as part of the package, which pushed them to the top of the list. Daniel, the owner, was easy to reach and responsive throughout. When we talked numbers, he worked with us to fit our budget, which we really appreciated. The crew came out and handled everything in a single day. I'll be honest: our attic was a genuinely rough starting point. After the work was done, we noticed a recessed light had come loose. I reached out to Daniel and, without any hassle, he had someone out the very next day to fix it. On a weekend. That kind of follow-through says a lot. Overall, a great experience from start to finish. Competitive pricing, willingness to work with you, a thorough scope of work, and a company that stands behind what they do. Would recommend without reservation.

On the day of the job, they discovered my attic was much larger than originally quoted. Even so, Daniel honored his original quote, and I truly appreciated his honesty and integrity. The team was professional, thorough, and kept me informed throughout the entire process. They provided photos after vacuuming out the old insulation, after sanitizing and sealing the attic, and after completing the installation, so I knew exactly what was done every step of the way. Daniel delivered everything he promised, even though the actual job was significantly larger than expected. It's rare to find a contractor who stands by their word the way he did. I'm extremely happy with the quality of the work, the excellent communication, and the outstanding customer service. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Belmont Insulation to anyone looking for an honest and reliable insulation company.

A few of the places I checked with didn't want to give a rough estimate, but none of the them lied about their reasoning, so they didn't get reviews. Some even gave me a rough estimate right here on yelp. Based on some of the other reviews, it seems like this sort of pressured sales approach is their business model, instead of helpful answers and good work.

This was the lowest bidder by maybe 10% and did OK work, but I had to check their work then request…read morecorrections, and they were unclear on scope options so I was left with unsealed fixtures and fiberglass debris in the house to clean up myself. While they did work with me, did exceed expectations in rodent proofing patch support, and were quite friendly and ready to correct most shortcomings I pointed out, I would have preferred they not rely on my oversight to give quality work consistent with my original direction. They did not tape off a sealed plastic tunnel from the front door to the attic, did not let me know sealing off light fixtures was excluded, left some spotty gaps between batts of insulation and between batts and joists and did not run a second layer of insulation where I had requested it perpendicular to the first layer to better air seal joist gaps. They were unclear about IC-rated lights in contact with fiberglass batting insulation and its fire risk and did not seem to know the code on attic ventilation requirements enough to answer questions fans or vent sufficiency. Granted, I did not have insulation removal as part of the scope, it was already done by a prior contractor during rodent proofing. Instead of making a tunnel, they taped off a small space from the attic hatch to the floor and put construction paper down on the floor. This helped with scuffs to the floor and may have contained some of the fiberglass dust/particles, but did not protect from scuffs on the wall or contain the fiberglass during transit to the door that was shed from the new batts being carried in or from their clothes and shoes, even though they generally had only one person trafficking the batts up to the hatch. They bagged up debris in the attic and carried batts in bags in from the door. They removed all the paper and plastic before I was done with my inspection, an inspection that yielded more work required, then they didn't put protection back for the short time of rework. The foot traffic left some fiberglass flakes and particles strewn about the floor. It took me two hours of cleanup to get that debris fully clean so my baby could crawl on the floor again. I vacuumed with a shop vac, made three passes with a swifter dry duster, and vacuumed with a house vac. I suggest asking them during the bid stage about the following, getting a quote for that work (with optional line items if you don't need everything), and confirming it is written in the proposal/bid/work order scope before awarding the project: - a sealed tunnel for transport of removal and installation - cleanup with vacuums and swiffer after until no particles remain in house on floors or touch surfaces - air-sealing fixtures and other gaps from rooms below - code and safety insulation contact with fixtures and blocking with gaps (2"-3"?) to avoid contact - insulation contact with rafters/roof battens/sheathing - roof ventilation adequacy and fan install if needed - gap prevention - running a second layer of batts perpendicular to the base layer for better air sealing - minor or major rodent proofing gap sealing with mesh and foam This is a good list to consider for any contractor you use, some contractors may find this obvious or already include it, but you could still benefit from knowing what to check for and avoiding change orders. I ultimately was satisfied by the work and they made some corrections and concessions to balance the expectations vs delivered result, but would have been happier with more clarity of scope options (too late to seal the fixtures now unless I pay $600 more or do it myself) and I had to do lots of cleanup that I could have avoided if I simply rejected their suggested home debits containment method of bagging with no tunnel. Although I would not suggest this crew if you are not prepared to check their work, which not everyone is physically capable of doing in tight spaces of some attics.

I got a second opinion. When the second company opened the system (originally installed by Advantage Air company), they found roughly two gallons of water inside the sealed refrigerant circuit, refrigerant leaking over the motor, a failed metering valve, an emergency water shut-off that wasn't connected and an unsecured exhaust line -- all documented with photos and video. The coil wasn't dirty; the system was contaminated and improperly sealed. I'd encourage anyone to get a second opinion before authorizing an expensive "cleaning," and to insist the technician show you what they're diagnosing. This system has only ever been worked on by Advantage Air. The system is basically new; it's eight years old. I purchased this home three years ago.
