A whole-home energy upgrade expert, NOT just insulators!

From the start of our remodel, I was looking for a state-of-the-art insulator that could think beyond "how many fiberglass batts". This is the ONLY company on the SF Peninsula that I found that delivered that and MORE. Out of the 3 quotes I got, SDI was the ONLY one that was priced with the others that offered energy knowledge and a whole-home approach to energy efficiency. The ONLY one. The two other consultants I called did not do business past the east bay.

Matt C. and Pamela V., my project contacts, instantly understood that

GREAT company to work with. Pamela came over, measured and scheduled the installation. Alfredo called to follow up on and confirm our appointment twice. Crew came in and did our small bedroom under 2 hours. They were quick and neat. Highly recommend SDI Insulation. They were FABULOUS!

Critical: Quality, Value
I spent a fortune on sound proofing insulation and it made zero difference. Asked for a refund and they wouldn’t accommodate. I was promised it would block sound like a sound studio and it’s literally no different. Don’t spend the money or go elsewhere, this was a very disappointing investment.

We saw an SDI Fireplaces advertisement on the KRON 4 TV channel. We have been in our home for 35 years and never used our living room wood-burning fireplace. We have a gas fireplace in our family room and wanted one in our living room as well.

Cost was a huge concern as the gas main is on the opposite side of the house where the fireplace is (approximately 60 feet of gas line). I had received estimates of $4,000 and $5,000 just for the gas line install. This was way over budget and we were about to forget the idea.

I spoke with Tony Pham at SDI Fireplaces and he worked with us to find

Excellent job.. I can’t say enough about this Company.
When they arrived they rolled out plastic on driveway for protection. Backed Truck up onto the plastic.
Great crew. They cleaned up perfectly. They sealed our attic with foam. Project manager even stop by to check on job. Job WELL done.

This company is very professional and will get your job done very quickly. They insulated a 5,000sqft home in just a few days with virtually zero issues. You might be able to save upfront with a small shop, but you won't get the depth of experience and organization that comes with SDI. They have many levels of organization and are very efficient and thorough. The few small items that needed attention were corrected the next day.

They also know the building codes well, so will make sure the products used are in compliance.

As for results, you can't go wrong with spray foam if you have

Wow! What a great team. This company knows how to do business. They get the highest recommendation I can give. I'm very impressed.

We bought a house with an addition done in the 1970s and learned that the reason why the south and west facing rooms were so hot (even with A/C) was because there was no insulation! We went with SDI because they were recommended by friends, and I've got to say that they were a pleasure to work with.

Joe Stromberg came in and inspected the house, discussed options (you can blow in through interior walls and not damage the stucco exterior!) and gave us a

I think I've given up on these people. In the end, they REALLY SHOULDN'T be in the fireplace business. They are TERRIBLE at COMMUNICATION and really good at keeping customers in the dust. I mean, why make your customers mad?

Our Empire Loft fireplace panels have been replaced three times and they look worse than any before because the panels are poor quality and can't withstand elements like heat and gas - so the black enamel splotches and streaks and when the fire is on. They fail to care, come out or come up with an alternative panel solution. Their owner, who I've left

SDI did a great job installing the insulation into the walls!! The cost is very reasonable and results in significant heat retention in the condo. The bonus benefit is the sound dampening in the rooms. Before SDI Insulation, the walls in my condo had zero insulation (built in 1958).

The crew that arrived was totally professional. They knew exactly where to make the small holes in the walls. They worked very efficiently and got it done in one day. The rough patches they left were easily painted over by professional painters. Even the painters stated that SDI did a very clean job.

The first project which was removal of insulation. The salesman was professional and the work was done timely. This was a good job. Fast forward to trying to schedule the new insulation and I can't get anyone to respond. First, their phone number advertised for Santa Clara county rings off the hook and no one answers it. I then called on the main number, she was quite rude and I was told I would receive a callback for an appointment within 24 hours. That was a week ago. Clearly they don't need the business nor do they want repeat customers. I would say the second experience doesn&apos

Excellent job from start to finish. Our project manager, Dennis, did an excellent job addressing our concerns relative to noise and draft. We followed his advice and are completely satisfied with the results. The installation team consisted of 3 very capable and delightful young men who did a terrific job. The guys worked together very well, and they were polite and professional. The supervisor arrived to put the finishing touches on the job and the fellows cleaned up beautifully. I highly recommend SDI!

Henry,

I'm not sure why you are talking about. There was one part of the quote for the spray in insulation and the other part of the quote was for the blanket type insulation as we hadn't decided which one we wanted. The removal was only included for the blanket style insulation and not for the spray on insulation. That is why there was a new quote sent to me was because the removal of the insulation for the spray in version was not included in the first quote, page 1.

On time and on schedule. Excellent service and willing to work with us regarding the pricing. Competitive and professional. Highly recommend. Pamela Martin was our sales person and she was enthusiastic about energy saving and creative with solving insulation problems/issues.

Everyone at SDI - from the project managers, to the job managers, to the workers - was professional, courteous and just lovely to work with. We're so impressed with the efficiency of our heating system after reinsulating our attic and adding insulation to our walls that we wish we'd done this sooner! Highly worthwhile and recommended.
