    Labor warranty Parts warranty Maintenance plan (not honored)
    Bryan M.

    Responded to an advertisement and Purchased new AC & furnace and used them to clean out my attic and install new insulation. Installation and equipment was great. Was very happy. Advertisement said installation of new system included warranty and maintenance plan. When I called for maintenance I was told they would not honor the maintenance plan. Owner called me, said his name was Israel, then said he was Johnathon when I said that's who I dealt with. He was very rude and confrontational when all I wanted was what I was sold. Great installers, but very disappointed to be lied to and disrespected. Spent $15k and treated like this?

    Housing for the mini split copper pipes

    So pleased with our HVAC service today. Abraham (Ibrahim) was a creative problem solver and found the least invasive/visible way to install the pipes - in a closet, even opting for the back of the closet, which involved a higher level of skill and craftsmanship to fit them flush to the wall (some carpentry skills as part of it), so it would be out of our way. He also found a great solution of cutting a small hole in our pavers for condensation, which he helped communicate with our landscapers who were present. Babak helped install the outdoor unit efficiently and precisely. They helped find a spot for the outside lines that didn't require moving existing downspouts. They helped me test and ensure our units were functioning correctly and did a thorough clean-up job. A+ service!

    Luis was an incredible professional. He was fast, he was thorough, he was efficient. He gave us a very fair price. My poor older immigrant parents were shivering in their house for the last week with space heaters with their broken furnace of 40 years. Luis, like a magician showed up with a top tier furnace model and did the install this evening. He was kind and friendly. We're really grateful that he was able to fit us in before the Thanksgiving holiday after working a long day of doing other jobs. His team was supportive and friendly. We would definitely call him again. My partner has an eye for construction and installation and assessed it to be a professional well done job. No corners were cut. We provided the nest thermostat which he installed in under five minutes flat. So grateful!

They sent someone the next morning for an assessment and got us scheduled right away! In the interim, they gave us recommendations to deter the rats, which worked. Carlos and his crew arrived on time and finished quickly. The price was reasonable (honestly, on the cheaper side yet the quality and professionalism was great!). There was an issue with a short circuit because a rat chewed through the insulation that we didn't notice until the weekend, but Carlos responded immediately and came over to fix the issue. We are so grateful to Carlos and the Attic Crew for helping us with rats in the home, helping us feel more confident about keeping them out for the foreseeable years, and for all of their professionalism, knowledge, and expertise! Would definitely recommend!

The communication was excellent, even on a holiday weekend I got called back within an hour of reaching out with questions, which I certainly did not expect! They arrived promptly for appointments and were thoughtful about avoiding tracking dirt into our home. They worked with us to customize their work to our coastal climate and were very transparent about exactly what materials they would be using (all top of the line, industral-grade!). I have pets and toddlers and they took my concerns about chemical disinfects seriously and offered several options to make sure I was comfortable with what was used in our home. They really seem to take pride in their work and enjoyed sharing before and after pictures to demonstrate all the improvements they made to our crawl space. I could not be happier with my choice to hire them, and plan to work with them again when I'm ready to replace my attic insulation.

When Elmer came out, he took about 30 minutes to walk through the house and gave us a completely different--and much more reassuring--assessment. He identified entry points where rodents were getting into the crawl space, explained that the air ducts did not need to be replaced, and instead recommended insulating the rafters, reinsulating the attic floor, and cleaning and reinsulating the crawl space. He also suggested installing an attic fan to improve air circulation. Throughout the visit, he was straightforward, knowledgeable, and very approachable. We decided to move forward with the attic fan. Umar updated the contract promptly and even came out personally to help program the fan and connect it to my phone. Their team worked tirelessly over four days and did an excellent job. They were professional, detail-oriented, and left the house clean when they were done. We enthusiastically recommend Insulation Alliance. Thank you, Elmer, Umar, and team! ST, Redwood City

    Beyond easy experience with Chris. My dryer suddenly started giving off a burning smell, which I…read moremistakenly attributed to the lint catch being overloaded. But even after cleaning it out, the smell wasn't going away. Then the vent started giving off either smoke or steam, and in a panic I immediately turned off the dryer. Thank God I didn't start a dryer fire. The second I shut it off and made sure everything was ok, I opened Yelp and searched for a dryer vent cleaner. Chris's Insulation came up, he had great ratings, he was super close by, so after calling a different service and going to voicemail, I called Chris. Chris picked up after the second ring. When I told him that I needed someone to clean our dryer vent and what had happened, he said he could come out either between 5:00 and 6:00 pm that evening or the next day. It was already mid-afternoon when I called, so I was surprised to hear him say he could still come out same-day, but I decided to have him do that since I was free and also still a little shaky following what happened with the vent either smoking or steaming. Chris showed up during the window he quoted and wasted no time getting to work. He started the second he arrived and was done within the hour. His pricing was incredibly reasonable and fair and so far, in the couple of weeks since he was here, we've had no issues with the dryer. Before he left, he also sent us a ton of pictures of what the vent looked like post-cleaning. Super happy and relieved.

    Professional service and they were able to come same day, which was the most helpful for me.read more

I never did catch anything but had no more poop sightings in the garage, so when I heard thumping and scuttling noises in the morning above my bedroom ceiling, I was convinced they were back. This time in the attic. I had also seen squirrels in the backyard hop onto my roof from the fence and so thought it might be a combo of the two or one or the other. Reached out to Attic King via Yelp and Mosh himself came out within a few days to inspect. He checked both attic access points and visually walked the perimeter of my house. Imagine my surprise when he said he did not see activity in my attic and that he doesn't feel I need his services at this time! He felt the squirrels are on the roof and the rats activity that I saw in the garage in the past were just rodents that got in via an opened garage door or access points there. I understand that we cannot predict future animal behavior and rodents are everywhere around us. He did give a quick quote to seal the roof line only when I pushed for it and did not try to sell me any services. Good for me but maybe not so good for him and I really appreciated his honesty.

However, crawlspaces can get moldy and wet from lack of care. If you ever encounter rodents, there is a good chance they came via the crawlspace. After all, we do hear noises at night at times, which is creepy. Jacob visited and gave a comprehensive review and estimate. We basically went for a full package of rodent control, cleaning, and installing a new vapor shield to keep it dry. The while job took maybe 2.5 days with a crew of 3 workers each day. Outstanding quality work. First phase was sealing up the homes around the house and crawlspace, and laying traps. The attic was inspected too. This was followed up with weekly followups to ensure no more rodents. This scope was subcontracted to Golden State Critter Control. Highly recommend working with Greg. The next two phases involve cleaning and eventually reinstallation of the vapor shield. Compared to what we had before, it was day and night! I also appreciated the crew alerting me to a leaky drain pipe. I later worked with a plumber to replace a cracked 3"D drain pipe that connected upstairs to downstairs. It was fixed in about 3 hours with two plumbers. Definitely recommend Crawlspace Clean for rodent control and crawlspace cleaning. 5 stars.

    I rarely write negative reviews, but I feel compelled to share my experience with Crawl Space Clean…read moreto save others from the same costly mistake. The main issues boil down to three things: excessive pricing, sub-par workmanship, and a very short warranty period. About a year ago, I discovered a bad rodent infestation. Looking for a quick solution, I made the mistake of hiring Crawl Space Clean without getting multiple bids. I spent over $14,000 on rodent-proofing and subfloor insulation replacement, only for the rodents to return. When I called them back, I was informed that my one-year warranty had already expired. They charged me extra just to patch entry holes they had missed during the initial job. During that same visit, they claimed I now needed a vapor barrier, quoting me an astronomical $16,000--though they offered a high-pressure "$500 discount" if I signed the contract that very day. Feeling suspicious, I finally did what I should have done at the start and called three other highly rated contractors for estimates. Every single one of them came back with quotes under $7,600 (less than half of Crawl Space Clean's price), and all of them included a 3-year rodent warranty. Furthermore, the contractor I ultimately hired to install the vapor barrier pointed out that the subfloor insulation previously installed by Crawl Space Clean had inadequate support and was already sagging. Learn from my expensive lesson: always get multiple bids, and avoid this company.

Eilon reached out to me directly and got a project manager scheduled within the same week. Sebastian came out for the estimate and was genuinely thorough. He spent a solid 15 minutes up in the attic actually reviewing everything (not just a quick glance), and when he came down, he answered every question I had without making me feel rushed or like he was just trying to close a deal. One thing that stood out was how he handled my question about also insulating the garage roof. I figured since the crew was coming out anyway, why not? But Sebastian actually walked me through the decision the right way -- asking me what I planned to use the garage for, whether any other finish work needed to happen first, and why it made more sense to do the insulation once I had a clearer plan. That kind of honest, no-upsell advice goes a long way in building trust. The crew showed up on the day of work around 8:45 AM, communicated clearly about what they'd be doing, and got right to it. They handled removal of the old insulation, sanitization, air sealing the ceiling, rodent proofing, installation of baffles, and filling in the fiberglass loose-fill. They even showed me before-and-after photos, which I loved. Wrapped up by 3 PM (6 hours approx). I had a few other quotes lined up, and EM was very competitive on price. After experiencing their professionalism and the fact that they did exactly what they said they would, I'm a happy customer and would absolutely recommend them.
