In 2009 two guys decided to make a difference in the landscape of Chicagoland insulation. Dedicated to providing the customers with the most accurate building science, making homes more energy efficient, comfortable, and lowering the cost of owning. With tools such as blower doors, infrared cameras, we helped identify factors that contribute to wasted energy in the home.
Delivering on the results of the energy audit by combining expert advice and proposals with expert installation of insulation materials, we have separated ourselves from the pack by delivering the highest levels of customer satisfaction in this challenging and changing industry. But the biggest impact of our attic insulation service will be felt long after our crew has departed, when you sit down to pay your monthly energy bill.

Services
Green Attic Insulation cares about results! We focus on improving air quality while reducing unintentional air leakage. We target energy bill reduction by sealing common leaks, reducing wind effect, stack effect, and providing a protective thermal barrier around the home. We specialize in building science based, whole house approach, performance based results when treating the conditioned space.
Having a well-insulated attic and house is a great way to not only stay comfortable throughout the year, but also save a substantial amount of money over the lifespan of owning the home. The average homeowner can expect to save 30% on heating during the winter.
The U.S. Energy Information Administration estimates that, on average, a homeowner can expect to save over $170 on natural gas and over $500 on heating oil to stay warm during the winter months.With the National Association of Realtors estimating that the median length of time that a family lives in a home to be about 9 years, that's a lot of savings by having a properly insulated home and attic!

The Basement is a huge vacuum for warm air, meaning your pouring money down a drain. By insulating your basement, you'll be able to keep heat in inside for longer while reducing the energy it takes to keep your home comfortable and in turn, cost a whole lot less. What many people overlook is how effective insulation can be at minimizing how far the sound will travel.
Here at Green Attic Insulation, we want you to save time and money, while sparing the environment in the process. That's why we provide attic insulation services and consultations, helping you to pinpoint the major points of heat transfer out of your home and into the surrounding area. We help you to properly seal and insulate your home so your bill reflects immediate savings on the next pay period.
A crawl space is an area under the first story of the home that is unfinished and has a height lower than that of a basement. An average crawl space clearance ranges from a few inches to several feet and almost always has an unfinished floor, soil, gravel, etc. When our team steps into an attic or a crawl space they take a breath.

I was looking for a contractor who deeply understands all my energy-efficiency goals for our home. Green Attic is that company. They insulated our attic affordably and quickly to R-60, past code, and the difference was night and day immediately. Literally within hours we noticed no condensation on our windows and, since we had the attic insulated one day before 6" of snow fell, we only had to wait 48 hours to see the difference with almost no icicles while our neighbors have visible ice dams. I am planning to work with them for several other energy efficiency upgrades like a heat pump install

I would not hire this company again.
Extremely poor communication and follow up, I spent vast amount of time trying to communicate between the office and salesperson. The salesperson James shows up, sells the job and then vanish - his Voice mail is full and there is no way to get a hold of him.
The only good aspect is that crew is very professional and hardworking.

And just like that Green Attic saves the day again! My upstairs neighbors refrigerator line broke, causing water to leak into my ceiling and causing significant damage to my living room wall. Per usual Green Attic really came through for me. After scheduling with the extremely professional gem, Genevieve; James (my favorite) stopped by and looked at the damage, he immediately arranged for it to be repaired by the wonderful Mike, who had it met previously before. The work was completed in one day! As usual I am extremely pleased with their work ethic and their work itself. It's kind of sad

Green Attic charged me much more than what we had agreed, and they threatened me with a mechanics lien on my home and attorney fees unless I paid them.
Green Attic provided me with an initial quote of $5424 including replacing the drywall. I chose them because they were in-line with other quotes I received, but I liked that James, their representative, took time to explain the work to me in detail. After Green Attic demolished all the drywall, they saw that I needed more spray foam and updated their quote to $6036, which I agreed to conditional on them correcting some mistakes in their quote

Don't ever use this company! I should have been warned by the reviews of James. Also the poor communication and follow up. All of the above I learned the hard way! James will lie to your face and try to sell you something even if you don't need it! The office never responds to emails or phone calls! They send crews to your house without even confirming! The crews do sub par work. This is one of the worst companies I've ever seen or hired! I would give them 0 stars if I could!

We worked with David and the Green Attic Insulation installers to properly insulate our attic. We were aware of inadequate/improper insulation when we bought our home five years ago and reached out to several places for estimates; ultimately choosing Green Attic and pleased we did so.
David, our estimator, is very knowledgeable and professional. He answered all of our questions and provided a variety of videos to help educate us about proper insulation methods.
We thought the quote was fair and Green Attic was very accommodating to our wants and needs. David provided several new estimates when

If there was an option to give zero stars, that is what they would receive.
Green Attic was hired to do some mold remediation and insulation installation inside my condo. Our HOA had some some previous insulation work in the past by Green Attic, so we felt comfortable in their ability to do a good job.
This experience was completely different. Not only was their work subpar, but it was downright reckless and dangerous. These people have no business being in the mold remediation business!
As with any project, I got 3 bids and they all pretty much said the same thing. They would come in and

I chose Green Attic Insulation, Inc. from the Nicor Gas/ComEd Energy Efficiency Program list of contractors because of their impeccable reputation, and they did not fail. First of, Amanda promptly scheduled an inspection. David came for the scheduled inspection, explained the plan, and is very flexible with the other contractors working on the on-going house repair. Both Amanda and David are on the top of things updating me about schedule, and were able to schedule me one week early. I got the estimate within 24 hours of the inspection, which is so thorough and easy to understand.

I had attic insulation blown in just last week. Green attic made the entire experience easy, from quoting, to providing all the information about my attic and about insulation and to the install work. Romulo and his crew did an amazing job with the work! He explained what they saw up in my attic and a recap of the job once it was complete. You would never know the hose was running through my house, everything was cleaned up afterwards. I feel confident that my home will be more efficiently heated and cooled now. Thanks Romulo and Green Attic!

The entire experience was good. They are knowledgeable, hard working, and cleaned up when finished. This is the second time I used them. The first time was when I finished my basement. We're happy with both jobs. I wish my rehab contractor was this good.
Updated- this is the third time I've used them and will do so again. They came, worked, cleaned, and left. Easy breezy.
