Attic Insulation

Attentive and professional service. Gary, our sales rep, took the time to answer all my questions and go over all the details of the project.
The installers arrived on time and treated my home with care.

You can tell the company is experienced since they went over all the aspects that needed to be prepped (parking arrangements, closing off spaces for pets, etc.).

attic insulation addition

I had multiple quotes for the attic, and Gary provided by far the most thorough assessment, including pointing out some electrical work that needed to be done prior to adding insulation, for safety reasons. This was missed by other companies and even though it was more effort for me, I appreciate the integrity of your company. You would not proceed with the work until Gary had personally verified the work. Marc was an excellent installer, and took care to keep the house clean. He took many pictures to show me the work, which was great as this type of work is harder to inspect than most projects!

Excellent Service All Around

I had three individuals come in and provide me with a quote. Out of the three in regards to the amount of work that was needed Gary, who assessed the work was by far the most professional and most detailed with his explanation.
The crew that consisted of two individuals with Mark being the lead were quick, clean, skillful and competent. Before looking for a quote I would recommend you ask Tropical for a quote and start with them as your benchmark. Thx.

Attic insulation--great price, great service

I recently had a very good experience with Tropical. I called a number of other companies for quotes to add to the blow-in insulation that I already had, and they all charged a minimum of $1000 plus tax regardless of the square footage of my attic (about 500 square feet). Tropical, however, gave me a much lower price ($700 plus tax) based on the size of my house.

What really sold me, besides the price, was the consultation. Gary was very thorough and polite when he came to inspect my house. I made him aware that I wanted my attic done as part of the Enbridge rebate. Gary double-checked his measurements to make sure that this job would qualify for the rebate, and he had me double-check with the energy auditor. It's all going to work out, but it was nice that Gary didn't just simply book the job without making sure that it was exactly what I wanted.

The work was done today. The Tropical team was on time, courteous, and clean, and now I have R-60 in my attic before winter comes. Great! I would definitely recommend Tropical.
