Testimonials

On 1/10/2026 Laura B. had this to say:
Austin Brink insulated my attic space last winter. He was very easy to work with, and I would recommend him. He was easily able to explain the different insulation options available. He was easy to get in touch with, and he kept his appointments. He cleaned up the mess that was left behind. He also advised me that electrical work needed to be done in the attic before he put in new insulation. He worked with the electrical contractor to coordinate their work with his work. In the end, he also helped me with the paperwork so that I could get a tax credit. I thought his price was very good for the amount of work he did.

On 4/16/2024 Veronica had this to say:
Absolutely wonderful to work with! Identified issues I was not even aware and went to work fixing them. Made sure the prep was done correctly and didn’t rush through the process. Very good with communicating timelines and expected dates for things to move forward. Will definitely recommend to anyone looking for insulation.

On 2/24/2024 Nancy Schoh had this to say:
Austin did a great job blowing insulation in the basement level of the house including the crawl space. It made a big difference to have the house temperature the same throughout, He was prompt in responding and had the job done about a week after contacting him. He was very professional, cleaned up after himself, and I would definitely recommend him! Testimonial written by Nancy Schoh on this site.

On 7/30/2023 Cheryl Reynolds had this to say:
Austin did an amazing job on our crawl space basement. We are so thankful for his knowledge on all the repairs that needed to get done. He did such an outstanding job & is such a hard worker! We highly recommend him & give him a 5 ⭐️ Testimonial written by Cheryl Reynolds on this site.

On 7/4/2023 Al Burkhart had this to say:
Austin did a very good job on my wall. He did a phenomenal job of cleaning up his mess and even the carpenters mess. My electrician even said that it was the smoothest application that he had ever seen in 30 plus years in business. Five stars are not enough for Austin.

FAQ

What is closed cell spray foam insulation?

Closed cell spray foam is a rigid insulation material that forms an airtight seal, providing superior thermal resistance and strength. Cellulose insulation is typically blown into walls or attics, creating a dense, eco-friendly barrier that efficiently reduces heat loss.

What are the benefits of fiberglass loosefill insulation?

Fiberglass loosefill insulation is versatile, filling nooks and crannies while providing effective thermal and sound insulation.

What is the Bibs System for fiberglass insulation?

The BIBS (Blow-In-Blanket System) uses loosefill fiberglass for custom-fit insulation, reducing gaps and increasing energy efficiency.

How does thermal imaging help in insulation?

Thermal imaging identifies heat loss areas and insulation gaps, allowing for targeted improvements that enhance energy efficiency.

Why is air sealing important in insulation?

Air sealing prevents drafts and leaks, making your insulation more effective by maintaining steady indoor temperatures and reducing energy bills.
