Lindsay Chan says: „Atticare is one of the best and honest companies I’ve had the pleasure of doing business with. My family recently moved into a new home and we have had a number of random jobs going on at the house. Every time someone went up in our attic space they came down with the same message - evidence of rodents, and minimal insulation. One contractor even removed a recently deceased rat from the attic. I knew it must be disgusting up there. With the summer heat we quickly realized how inefficient our home was. I dreaded the hot days because I knew our AC would barely keep our home comfortable. I wanted to do something about the attic because I knew this was an issue that was just going to get worse and I felt so gross having all that above our heads. I first received a quote from another company to remove the existing insulation, sanitize, seal possible entry points, lay new insulation and install a whole house fan and when they told me the price I knew it was not doable (over $20k). I sadly put that house project on the back burner for a bit. One day I was going through the Valpack coupons and I saw an ad for Atticare. They offered the same services as the first company I had contacted and a discount with the coupon. I figured I would give them a call to see if their prices would be any better. I was able to schedule Leo to come out and give an estimate within a few days. He came out and said the same thing that everyone else has said - that our attic needed a lot of help. He was able to break down the cost of everything per sqft (something the first company couldn’t do). And they were able to schedule the work to be done the following week. At first I told him I wanted to replace our existing attic fan with a new one, but later I changed our order to installing a whole house fan instead (I highly recommend this), and Leo was able to update our estimate without any issue. We needed an electrician to come out and wire for the house fan and they scheduled that for a few days before the attic work was to be done. Super easy. The day came for the attic work and three professional, pleasant, hard working men came out, prepped the entry/hallway spaces with plastic and got to work. They did everything within a few hours, and thoroughly cleaned the spaces when they were finished. We now have a clean, rodent free, appropriately insulated attic with a house fan. All for significantly cheaper than the first quote I received. Our house is so much more comfortable on hot days and our AC finally works well to cool our home. We noticed a difference right away. Oh, and when I told Leo what the first company had quoted me he laughed and said, “someone’s trying to go to the Bahamas!” If you’re thinking about having your attic redone, I highly recommend this company. The job was well explained and executed professionally. Thank you Atticare...“ Show more
