    Buyer Beware: Dishonest, Negligent, Fraudulent…read more On May 2, 2025, we were assigned to NYSERDA Contractors Mike Dunleavy and Matiss Riters. We never met Mr. Dunleavy. He was absent. He never came to our home. In his confusion, Mike Dunleavy created a bogus storyline of events based on second-hand information and misinformation from Matiss Riters in an alleged effort to cover up alleged Contractor Negligence and Insurance Fraud. The primary contractor we worked with was Matiss Riters along with his crew who proceeded to damage three (3) ceilings and one dining room wall in our home. The qualified homeowners are now forced to pay another contractor team out-of-pocket to complete the work and correct the damages done by Hudson Valley Energy, Inc. / Better Energy Solutions, Inc. No Certificate of Insurance was ever provided. No proof of Work Visas for the crew was ever provided. Matiss Riters led us to believe the maintenance in our home qualified. Matiss Riters stated, "This qualifies, but Mike has to approve it." Instead, Matiss Riters and his crew installed insulation in the attic. During this insulation installation in July, 2025, Matiss Riters and his crew damaged our entire kitchen ceiling and unintentionally blocked the air handler in the attic. Matiss Riters and his crew came back to our home in August, 2025, to correct and paint the kitchen ceiling, but we can still see the damages through the paint. On November 4, 2025, the homeowner attempted to perform the quarterly replacement of the air handler filter when he discovered the blockage. The homeowner reported the blockage to Mike Dunleavy the next day on November 5, 2025. Mike Dunleavy acknowledged the report. Six weeks later, the homeowner followed up on the report. Mike Dunleavy apologized profusely, in his own writing, stating he had forgotten about us. Thereafter, Mike Dunleavy blamed the homeowners for not cutting into the insulation installation to unblock the air handler filter, but a homeowner modifying or altering an installation voids the warranty and contractor liability. In his own writing, Mike Dunleavy stated he was confused, doubled down on the misinformation from Matiss Riters, attempted to gaslight the homeowners, blameshifted to avoid responsibility, projected the homeowners were trying to scam, then allegedly committed Insurance Fraud by suggesting, in his own writing, that we cover up his Contractor Negligence by filing the damages done by Matiss Riters and his crew as a Homeowners Insurance Claim. This suggestion was given to Mike Dunleavy by John Kulk of Kulk's Plumbing and Heating when John Kulk came to the house to stop the water leak caused by the blockage. John Kulk stated, "If the air handler had been on, the antifreeze would have prevented the damage." John Kulk then advised us to claim the Contractor Negligence on our Homeowners Insurance. John Kulk made the same suggestion to Mike Dunleavy. This suggestion shifts liability from the negligent contractors to the homeowners. This suggestion is Insurance Fraud. Despite the homeowners being kind and accommodating to these contractors, the contractors took advantage of two disabled people. The homeowner is a former Hartford Insurance Administrator and qualified New York State Business Ethics teacher. We believe Mike Dunleavy operates as Better Energy Solutions and Hudson Valley Energy to avoid detection by previous victims and regulatory oversight with the specific intent to defraud. Mike Dunleavy has served as president for both Better Energy Solutions Inc. and Hudson Valley Energy Inc. According to his professional profile, his leadership roles at these companies include: Hudson Valley Energy Inc.: He has served as President since February 2020. Better Energy Solutions Inc.: He served as President from September 2015 to February 2020. All statements above are true, verifiable, and protected under the Consumer Review Fairness Act.

    Better Energy Solutions deserves a five star review! Janis and his team arrived with fully equipped…read morehigh tech gear. After briefing me on what was to be done, Janis and his team insulated the attic, basement, garage and living space. They rerouted my dryer to vent outside and installed an exhaust fan in the bathroom. Everything they did made a huge difference in the home! The team was professional and very knowledgeable, addressing any concerns I had, immediately. Their work was clean and meticulous. It was obvious that the entire crew take pride in their work. They also installed new windows. My old windows were in terrible shape, but the new ones look beautiful and improve the energy efficiency and comfort. My living room, previously the hottest room, is now much cooler, thanks to the new windows blocking UV rays and heat. I can't praise Better Energy Solutions and the team enough! I highly recommend them and hope they know how much I appreciate their work. Thank you so much!

    Get ready for a rave review: 5 stars is not NEARLY enough to give this wonderful company. We…read moregathered three different estimates for this project. Adaptive Insulation's price was right in the middle and felt entirely fair for the scope of work. Now, having seen what they went through to install cellulose insulation in our completely uninsulated (read: broiling) attic and cavernous, rocky crawlspace, it seems like we should have paid them more! What a job! Josh handled the project from start to finish and was clear, communicative, and easy to work with. His crew--Brock, Rourke, and Brandon--were the BEST. We appreciated it that the whole team introduced themselves at the beginning of our project--it felt so much better to have them in our home once we knew their names and faces. All three were so friendly, kind, hard-working, and respectful of our space, leaving it cleaner than they found it. Brock in particular was fabulous to work with. He encouraged questions, was happy to make changes based on feedback, and made sure at the end of the job that we were 100% satisfied, which we absolutely were. You will not regret hiring this incredible company--we recommend them wholeheartedly, and can't wait to enjoy a cooler home this summer and a warmer home next winter!

    The guys that did my attic insulation, Anthony and his team, were so professional, informative and…read morefriendly. They covered the hatch to keep dust contained and worked very clean. They also cleaned up when they finished the job. The cost was reasonable and included NYSERDA and ConEd rebates so their work reflects standards that are higher and more thorough than the other estimates I got. They went above and beyond, removing the contents of my attic and replacing it when the job was done. They have a great work ethic and are so pleasant. I highly recommend them.
