Green Attic Insulation

they came in right on time and the staff was very friendly and detailed minded. they went above and beyond the call of duty. my house is so much warmer and cozy. i highly recommend them. i had a great experience with their service. thank you green attic.

I see that both Nicor and Comed have removed Green Attic from their rebate program approved contractor lists. If Green Attic’s work on my attic was typical it’s obvious why this happened.
Green Attic’s work was AWFUL. It needed $ 2300 of additional work to mostly fix it. Green Attic did NOT offer to do any of the work or to pay for it. When they saw the problems they merely acknowledged there was a problem and it needed much more work to fix it.
We initially planned the attic work in midsummer 2014, Green Attic said their design did not need venting through the roof deck. This surprised both me and my general contractor. Andrei at Green Attic claimed to have never had problems with this design. Sadly I decided to trust Andrei:
«I will get more Rvalue with my insulation without spending extra money on ridge vent, soffit vents and baffles. The only problem you’ll have to be careful in the future will be roof leaks, but thats a problem with any type of insulation installed in cathedral ceiling.»
Green Attic supposedly sealed the floor of the attic against humidity from the house below using closed cell foam, a product somewhat like Great Stuff. The inside of the roof was insulated with blown in cellulose.
The attic was finished with a built in air conditioner and sheetrock by my general contractor, who did a great job.
By that January we discovered that steady moisture was leaking into the unfinished space in the attic near the eaves, and was forming a obvious water droplets and ice inside the roof deck.
In the Spring the humidity inside the finished living space was unbearably humid, even with the AC on full blast. Books and paper in the rooms warped as if they’d been left in the rain.
When Green Attic came in to see the problem they said that the roof obviously needed vents. This would have been easy to do before the attic had been refinished, but it now would cost another $ 2300. Green Attic did not see how this could be their responsibility, and did not offer to do the work or pay for it.
Use Green Attic at your own risk.

Had Green Attic insulate and air seal my attics. They completed the job in one day, and got me the maximum Nicor deduction. My closet with attic access got dirty from the work. They apologized profusely, and sent two people over the very next day to clean the closet to my complete satisfaction. I noticed that they put foam insulation into an area in my laundry room outside wall that contained PVC pipes for my furnace (something we had never even discussed doing). Great service, Andrei!

Just wanted to say what a great job the guys did.
I desperately needed insulation in my attic. Andrei came out and did a door blower test and went round whole house with thermal imaging camera and showed me all the air leaks and cold spots (and followed up with a report containing all the images).
I received an itemized quote a few days later, so I could choose which items I would undertake.
They completed all the air sealing and insulation blowing in a single day. The crew were some of the nicest, most professional guys I’ve ever worked with. They went way above and beyond in every aspect and left the house spotless. After the job was complete, they repeated the door blower test and thermal imaging, as well as checking the efficiency of he hot water heater and furnace.
The work resulted in the maximum rebate possible ($ 750 for my house) from ComEd/​Nicor and the house is significantly warmer. Looking forward to seeing the results in the gas and electricity bills.
They weren’t the cheapest quote I got, but it was definitely good value and would highly recommend them.

I received a quote, along with others about a year prior to our hiring a contractor. It was easy to select Green Attic not only because of the quote, but also because of their professionalism.
The team was diligent, professional and worked hard to seal and insulate every corner of the house. They also did an amazing job cleaning up… Definitely hire them again.

Andrei and his crew were great! The estimate was very prompt and thorough too. The four men who were here did great work and added in some extra insulation (at no extra cost). I had both the attic and the crawl space under a family room insulated. Andrei was a pleasure to work with — the paperwork for the energy rebate was completed by their company too. I would highly recommend this company! And my home is much warmer already!

After looking them up here to get their info for a friend, I cannot believe I forgot to write a review for Andrei! He was punctual to our consultation appointment and we walked the house together. He made suggestions as to how I could insulate my basement better if I wanted to (and even told me how to do it on my own) but made no attempt to upsell me. Even though he stood by while my father attemtped to blow the house up when I wasn’t looking (another problem/​story altogether) he did a great job on the attic. They were on time and polite and after yesterday’s snowfall, I noticed halfway through the day that my roof had the most remaining snow on it of all my neighbors (despite not having any shade or protection of any sort). Proof that the heat just wasn’t escaping from the living area through the attic like it used to!
Thanks Andrei!

Andrei did a fantastic job for me, was very clean, and very helpful in getting me the People’s Gas rebate. Highly recommended.

Green Attic Insulation has now performed 4 jobs for me. They have always performed in a clean and efficient manner. In the beginning I researched several different sub-​contractors for my insulation needs, but Andrei was very friendly and his policy of taking on the People’s Gas Rebate instead of forcing my clients to wait for it to come in the mail has provided me with extra leverage to convince the client to have the job performed. The cellulose insulation which is treated with borax is a Green product that blocks noise, heat/​cooling loss and also reduces pests’ ability to survive inside the walls and ceilings.
I highly recommend

These guys did a fantastic job insulating our home. They were efficient, clean, and really went out of their way to be sure the job was done right. We are already noticing a huge difference in the warmth of our house. Their price was great, too — the instant People’s Gas rebate plus the fed tax credit right now make insulation a no-​brainer. Go with these guys — you will be very happy with their service and their price!
