Brooklyn Green Home Solutions

Spoke with Bob on the phone this afternoon:
Me: «I found your number on your website and I’d like to schedule an energy audit.»
Bob: «I’m not really taking anybody on right now because I have these other projects that I need to do in the next few weeks.»
Me: «Oh. Sorry to hear that. I’m willing to wait if you want to try to schedule something a few weeks from now.»
Bob: «No, I really just need to focus on this other stuff right now.»
Me: «Ok. Could you recommend someone else I could call?»
Bob: «No. I recommend people and they keep coming back to me because other people don’t return phone calls.»
Listen, Bob, you’re obviously in no position to throw shade on these unnamed competitors for their lack of professionalism. Take the website down if you’re no longer selling the service.

I’ve worked with Bob a couple of times, and he always does a great and thorough job. And incredibly patient and helpful with clients!

Bob was simply terrific. After his free NYSERDA home energy survey we had a open and detailed discussion of ways I could choose to improve the energy efficiency of my 2-​family home. He provide cost/​benefit analysis of each possible improvement. This allowed me to choose the ones that were cost effective and affordable. His work was timely, neat and efficient. He was happy to work with my schedule and my needs.
My biggest complement is his conscientious and professional behavior. He detected a carbon monoxide lead in my gas burner that HOME SERVE failed to discover both one week before during their annual boiler check and even on their return after his testing. On his insistence I again called HOME SERVE, who on a third visit, finally using a CO combustion analyzer confirmed what Bob Gilbert had insisted was an excess CO measurement. (and Bob was there on that visit.) Through my HOME SERVE insurance heating plan they replaced by gas value, a $ 350+ part, at no cost to me.
Bob saved me from a dangerous situation and saved me $$$$, so I highly recommend Brooklyn Green Home Solutions.

Bob Gilbert of Brooklyn Green Home Solutions did a wonderful job on making my home more green and energy efficient.
Bob identified several solutions and implemented them himself in a timely manner and/​or referred me to quality subcontractors when needed. When I did have to work with subcontractors he was very responsible around scheduling and checking in to ensure they did their jobs as well. The biggest part of the jobs was insulating the roof. While I hadn’t planned to do that at the outset of my renovation, I am so glad that I did, as the top floor of my home was always stifling in the summer and you could feel a dramatic difference immediately after the insulation was complete.
Bob was also extremely patient in dealing with the government paperwork aspect of the NYSERDA process.
It has only been a month since the job was completed so I haven’t yet seen a difference in my bills, but I am sure I will and am very glad I made the investment in my home and living greener.
Without reservation I highly recommend working with Bob Gilbert and Brooklyn Green Home Solutions.
