We hired them in 2015 to do an energy audit and then to execute the changes needed to bring our 1930's (needs work) house up to more contemporary energy standards. They did a great job, quick, fairly priced, and the results have been noticeable. If you need or want an energy usage inspection done by an expert this is the place to go. Highly recommend.

His price was fair and did not have to wait very long for the service. On the first day of work, Bill was there to introduce me to the four men who would be working on my home. Adam, Louis, Peter and Bob. These guys were amazing. They just about worked non stop. It was cold. It was physical. It was up in my attic. Yet, their good nature prevailed. They were polite as well. (Sidebar. One bonus. Adam, who was in charge of the crew, is tall and happily helped me change a few lightbulbs too.) This crew worked great together and did a great job. You could tell they liked one another and liked and respected Bill. Bill came back after the job was complete to make sure everything was done right.

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!

Unfortunately, this was a complete waste of time because they didn't return calls or email requests other than a vague email that they were unavailable to begin the work as promised. I was also asked for a deposit that supposedly would have been returned if I cancelled the job. Since Get Green, and not I, ended their commitment to the job, I asked for my deposit back, but it was never returned. Given the long delay and need to find another company, my pipes froze, costing me even more money! Luckily, a genuinely reliable company was able to step in and properly complete the job within a reasonable time frame.

The team that performed the service was courteous and professional. They did an excellent job protecting the workspace during the cleaning, and it was completely spotless afterwards.
