Aakre Home Services came & scoped out the project. My brother-in-law said he knew it was right to have them do the job when he saw Josh's interest - he even used wood from my mother-in-law's woodlands! I am sure these steps are better than those in the finest of homes - the attention to detail and safety is unsurpassable. Thank you so much!!

Josh did all the research to find one that would fit into the customized space, shopped to get us the best price for the unit and installed it within two weeks of our first call to him. He was extremely professional and did a great job of communicating with me throughout the process. I will hire Josh again AND recommend him to my friends!

We worked as our own contractor, so we were a little apprehensive about how this process would go. Lakeside's pricing was competitive and we worked with the designer, Josh. He was amazing-patient, creative, and helped us stay within our desired price point. He also was great at helping us obtain what we wanted, but in ways that would work practically. As you can see, the attention to detail and craftsmanship is incomparable. From designing to install, this process was so smooth, we could hardly believe it. Thanks so much to all at Lakeside, you made our dream kitchen come true!

Ryan was our realtor for both the sale of our old home and the purchase of our new one in the…read moresummer of 2022. WOW! What a fabulous job this young man did for us. As buyers, he listened closely to what we were looking for, and set up showings for homes that met our parameters! For each and every home we visited, he carefully inspected each property with us and pointed out all of the pluses AND minuses for each home. We bought our new home in a HOT market, and Ryan expertly guided us through the offer process and helped us get a signed purchase agreement on the house we wanted! As for the sale of our former home, Ryan went above and beyond in helping us prepare our house for sale, and marketing it to prospective buyers. He even hired a DRONE to provide prospective buyers with aerial footage of our house and property! He worked with us to set a sales price that would lead to a good number of buyers touring our house. On the FIRST day our house went live on the MLS, we had 10 different showings, resulting in 6 different offers. We ended up selling the house for $50,000 OVER our asking price! Ryan is a rock star at what he does! We can't recommend him enough!

We had Houle Insulation out to assess our attic's needs. We had insulation blown in 30+years ago…read morewhen we bought but then just forgot about it. The owner came out, inspected, explained in detail what we needed and gave us a quote. He also offered that Xcel was offering a rebate for some of the work we needed down and they would file all the paperwork for it. He was on time, personable and professional and the bid was reasonable and fair. We had the work done and the crew that did the work was on time, efficient, did an excellent clean up after the work was done. They did file the rebate and we received it in the time Xcel said it would take to receive it. It's rare these days to find a business that is honest, timely and fair with respectful crews but Houle Insulation was all of that and more. I would HIGHLY recommend them and in all honesty I am a hard to please customer because I won't "settle" for less than I expect. These guys are good. Because they are good they are busy so just know it may take a little longer to get scheduled but the wait is worth it! We have noticed a huge difference this winter. Heating bills are down and the house feels warmer.

I cannot speak highly enough of Houle Insulation. Today Todd from Houle came by my house, after…read moreinspecting the attic he told me that the insulation I already had was sufficient and installed properly. He said that he wouldn't take my money just to add to or replace what was already there. I was shocked, because another company had quoted me over $3800 recently without ever bothering to tell me I didn't need it. Even though I didn't hire Houle to complete any job, I happily give them 5 stars for integrity. I will be recommending them to anyone I know looking for insulation work.
