We have nothing but amazing things to say about Chris! I called him in the morning and he came out that same afternoon to look at our attic.
Our pest company had told us (in a very dramatic delivery) that we needed all our attic insulation ripped out & reinstalled, a big and very expensive project.
Chris inspected the attic and assured us our insulation was in great shape and there was absolutely no reason to replace it. He did tell us that it was lacking a bit and we might want to eventually add more insulation to make our home more energy efficient. He sent a quote for that work the very next day. It's nice to know there are still good, honest people out there!
We'll absolutely be using them for insulation work when the time comes.

I have had the worst time trying to get a quote from this company. They are not responsive and downright dismissive.

I called and spoke with Chris for nearly ten minutes on October 27, 2022. He asked me a series of questions about my crawlspace and attic - as he pulled up my home on Google Maps. He then promised to send me a quote within the next day. He did not.

I called back on November 2. This time, Chris was more curt. He didn't seem to remember chatting on the 27th. Fine. I outlined the specs on my house once again. He, oddly, asked if I sent plans over. It was weird to hear I needed to send plans to get a quote for insulation on a house less than 1000 sf. He never asked for plans on October 27.

Overall, he frankly acted putout by the idea of giving a quote. And maybe that's why I never got one: even after calling and answering Chris's questions twice.

Can't help but feel maybe C&R is only good for a certain type of client? Maybe friends and family?

We made a 9:00am appointment for C & R to come to our home for a consultation. Chris who we made the appointment with asked if we could send him via email the architectural plans so that he could view them before the appointment. He texted us his email address. He acknowledged receiving the email. The next day 9:00 am rolled around. My husband waited and waited. No one showed up. After 10:00am my husband called Chris to see what happened to him. Chris said he'd forgotten about the appointment. Red Flags went up when my husband heard that comment. Chris said he'd come out later in the day. We never heard back from him. We texted him on his cell phone to see what had happened. He never responded. We left messages on the business line. No response. I would not recommend C & R Insulation. They showed us they were not dependable.

C & R insulation followed through on their promise. The cost was what I expected, fair and within my budget. The job was done very professionally and on time. I’m truly pleased with the work Chris and his team did at my house. Thank you!

Prompt, professional, and quality work.
They responded when we called. They understood the work request. They provided a reasonable and extensive estimate. They were flexible with work schedule. They showed up exactly when they said they would. The work took exactly how long they said it would. They did exactly what was discussed. They cleaned up when they were done.
You cannot ask for anything more. We will definitely reach out to them again for any insulation work - and we will recommend them to anyone.

C and R was great to work with. Chris got me a proposal in a timely fashion and scheduled the work when I gave him the go ahead. Their workers showed up on time and were very professional. After the work was completed they walked me through what was done to make sure everything met my expectations. The new closed cell insulation looks great. I would highly recommend you use them for your insulation needs.

We purchased an existing home, that showed signs of animal dropping in the attic. Such as Squirrels, mice birds etc... I contacted Chris at C& R Insulation and we discussed options. He then asked if we would be using the attic for storage since it was so large. I told him we were and he explained the open cell foam spray insulation. He explained the process and how they would suck out all of the old insulation and sanitize the area and how nothing was on the floor and that the foam was sprayed on the underside of the roofs plywood. it would be open to use as we wanted and the attic would become encapsulated and we could put anything temperature sensitive up there since the temperature would never be above 10 degrees above our living area. He also told us the initial cost was more but over the long run the insulation would save us in heating cost by about 30%.
Well we did it and it is one of the best things we could have done. Plenty of storage space and the temperature is not much different then our living area. Thanks again Chris for being responsive and doing a great job. Highly recommend

Fantastic experience. I had many questions that were all answered quickly and in terms I understood. Install went great with the site clean and orderly. Thanks Chris. Great job and results. Thank you.

Chris did a quick online estimate for my 32-year old attic and then came out withing 24 hours for a thorough look and sent me and gave me an estimate promptly.
I had gotten another estimate through BGE Home and C and R's estimate was 37% cheaper for exactly the same detailed service and exact same insulation product getting my attic to a R49 with plugging holes and insulation bats around the edges.
The two installers came out on time two days later and laid down plastic sheeting so there was zero mess in my house and professionally completed the job in a little over 2 hours. they were all business and knew what they were doing.
My home, especially our 2nd floor and bedroom are much warmer now and I like using a local contractor. Should have done this 20 years ago as our upstairs has been much colder than downstairs.

Very knowledgeable, corrected an error in LED lighting design made by the original installers. They know the hardware and light design aspects well. Their work was very timely, neat, and fairly priced. The quality of their work led to us extending lighting replacement in other rooms of the house. If and when we get to installing LED lighting in the rest of the house, we will definitely call them. It helps also that they are a family business and care about the firm.

I have used C&R three times. Every occasion has been totally professional. The most recent time I had Jose and Weller do the work and they were like watching artists at work. When they left, there was no cleanup to be done, I could just continue with my project. My experiences have been great!

I have done 3 projects with Chris and C&R. They are fantastic, show up quickly, do quality work, and stand by their work product. Will definitely use them for future projects.

After a failure of a past fiberglass insulation for an under room craw space falling down I researched alternatives. Did a google search on Sunday afternoon for foam insulation and found the site for C & R insulation. I read about the advantages of using foam for my project. I contacted them Monday morning and discussed the project details, size and was given a proposed cost. I was lucky that they had an opening that Tuesday morning at 8 am. While there I showed them a side shed and for a modest cost they did that also. C & R insulation personal were highly professional, knowledgeable and performed an outstanding job. My floors have been so WARM with no drafts even during this past weekend 50 mph plus winds. FANTASTIC JOB, Thank you...

Chris and his crew were awesome. We wanted to insulate our attic that had barely any insulation and make our home more energy efficient. C&R was reasonably priced and professional. I would and will recommend C&R to anyone needing insulation services.

As a contractor, I have used C and R as my insulator of choice for the last seven years. They always find a way to come though for me and provide a level of service that represents my company brand well.

C&R Insulation did a terrific job of insulating for a rennovation project at our farm! I highly receommend them to anyone looking for a responsive, responsible and reasonably priced contractor.

C&R Insulation did some spray foam in a bathroom wall that the previous homeowner neglected to insulate during a renovation. They were able to drill down from the attic and save me from having to rip out any tile. Wall stays warm in winter now, no issues.

We had a great experience with C and R; they were prompt in their service and did a fantastic job. They cost came in UNDER the quoted price which was a nice surprise since we thought the quoted price was fair. I highly recommend their service for anyone needing insulation.

As a contractor, I have relied on C and R to consistently provide me with high-quality air-sealing and spray foam insulation work on all of our projects. I can count on Ron and his crews to show up on time, work with a positive attitude and stay until the job is finished . C and R does all this for reasonable price. An excellent company; highly recommended.

C&R did a small crawl space job, 1-2 years ago, including new plastic on floor and closed cell on walls. There was some over spray visible in old vents seen from outside and all over plastic floor inside. Seal around perimeter is not perfect as plastic liner was not installed far enough up brick to form permanent seal. The seal around the entrance failed due to tape not adhering to brick and over spray. The plastic was not best quality and where folds exist from shipping it has cracked ruining the vapor barrier effect. They left property outside of crawl space clean and tidy where prompt and friendly. However, they could use higher quality products and be a bit more fastidious.

Chris came to our jobs site.
We agreed on a fair reasonable price.
He and his team returned on the promised date.

Sprayed foam into every nook and Crack.

ROOMS are tight and QUIET!
The job was exactly as promised**

FANTASTIC, we are extremely pleased with his work.

Used C & R Insulation, LLC on numerous projects. They consistently meet and/or exceed expectations. From fair/competitive pricing to outstanding customer service and communication, my team and I will definitely use them again. Keep up the good work!

One of the best contractor experiences I can recall was with C&R. As an architect, I highly recommend my clients use foam insulation, at a minimum in their attic to prevent the chimney effect of air being pulled through their walls and out their roof. In a new home or remodeling, seal all wall cavities and roofs with a thin layer, called flash and batt. Your house will be super airtight.

Ron was awesome. Good communication throughout the entire process. Good price and what a noticeable difference in the comfort of our home.

Peace of mind to know that this company responds quickly and in no time your job is completed in a very professional manner. No surprises,and that is what I like the best.

Love my insulation. Best money we've ever spent. They did blown in in my first house and when we renovated our second house we have them do sprayed in. My new house is very comfortable and our heating bills are lower. C&R spayed my attic, our walls and our crawl space. If we ever do another house I'll be calling!

I did have to call them back to correct an issue but had no issues with getting them back the next day early to match my schedule. Will use them the next time.

Had C&R come to my house about three weeks ago to give me an estimate on spray foaming my basement and crawlspace. They came and took measurements but have yet to even give me an estimate. Everytime I attempt to call there is no answer and the voicemail box is full. All other companies that have come to give an estimate take 5-10 minutes in their truck to write up estimate.

I called to get started on an insulation project for an existing room. While C&R couldn't help me with an existing drywalled space, they were beyond helpful in offering information and resources to help me move forward. Chris generously offered me with knowledge and tips to find the right contractor. Thank you so much for your help!

Chris and his crew provided a great product at a very reasonable price. I wanted spray foam insulation in my remodeled basement. I investigated DIY spray foam kits but for literally the same amount of money they did the work and I know that their product and installation was superior to the DIY option.

I would highly recommend them for your insulation needs.
