I called the main office to schedule an estimate, and the salesman returned my call within 12 hours. He showed up when scheduled, and spent about 30-40 minutes measuring the spaces and asking questions. The estimate was emailed to me within 24 hours and was $6000 lower in cost than another company's estimate for the same service. They were able to schedule a 2 day installation within 2 weeks of the estimate date.

The salesman emailed me and called the day before to remind me of their arrival time, and he arrived with the installation crew on time the next day. We did a thorough walk-through before they started the job, where they described the different products they were using on the different spaces, and I gave their my feedback: don't spray over this board but leave it bare, we want to be able to sheet rock this space, etc. The salesman AND the installation crew were incredibly knowledgable and I modified some of my choices based on their input.

Before starting to spray the foam, the crew covered all our belongings (which we had moved away from the walls) with plastic sheeting for protection. In the basement, they covered the furnace, oil tank and other immovable objects with plastic. They also stapled plastic to the ceiling to protect our belongings from the spray.

During the installation itself, the crew worked well as a team. One crew member did the spraying, and the other worked at cutting the excess solidified foam back to the joists to create a clean, smooth, flat surface ready for sheet rocking. In the shallower spaces they installed a heat-shield barrier to increase the r-value of the insulation. All the waste material was swept and vacuumed up. It was brutally hot in the attics, but they never stopped.

The job was completed in the estimated 2 days. On both days the installation crew was professional and respectful. I was working from home, and they did not disrupt my work at all (no loud music, yelling to each other, etc).

When the job was completed, the crew and I did a final walk through, and they pointed out some of the things they had done, such as sealing aroundthose small spaces by the attic windows. They had cleaned up all the excess insulation and vacuumed the floors and hallways. My basement floor was cleaner when they finished than when they started! In the basement, they had found a small space that had been missed in the original estimate; this space required using a different spray foam than the rest of the basement, but they went ahead and filled it with the proper materials. They removed all the plastic wrapping. All the waste material was bagged and removed when they left. (The salesman had offered to return for the final walk-though but I didn't feel it was necessary).

When the Energy Auditor returned to do a before/after comparison test on our house, we was approximately a 33% improvement in our air leakage values.

I am completely satisfied with Seal It. They were professional and friendly, and it's obvious that they believe in their product and their service - it's not just about making money because these people really believe in the value and importance of good insulation.

We are so impressed with your company. Starting with John who came out so quickly to give us a quote and then to have the work done a week later. The gentleman who installed the foam were very professional, courteous and conscientious of their work. I highly recommend Seal It and look forward to using you again in the near future.

To whom it may concern,

THANK YOU!!!! I'm writing this letter to commend you on a job well done with the insulating of my home. Your company has been insightful and informative every step of the way. Any questions I had before, during and after have been quickly answered. During the winter of 2008-2009 I used 800 gallons of oil in my 1,200sqft home.  After having just my basement and attic insulated with the spray foam I used 399 gallons during the winter of 2009-2010. I'll repeat 399!! Incredible!!. I never would have expected such a drop in usage. Your crew has also been a joy to work with. They have been very polite and respectful every step of way. They have gone above and beyond to keep me informed throughout the entire process. Your foreman also invited me to watch them spray foam into my walls. VERY EXCITING! They didn't even mind me taking pictures throughout the entire process. :)

My house is 1,200sqft and built in 1866. Since winter your company has completed spraying foam into my walls.  I have noticed an immediate reduction in road noise and outside noise from inside the house. I hope to reduce my consumption of oil even more now since my walls are done. I praise your company to anyone and everyone I speak to. The added fact that your product is green makes me feel a lot better having it in my home and helping the environment at the same time. I would gladly speak to anyone that is questioning this product and inform them of how GREAT your product is. Again, a big thank you for all you have done and for all the money you have saved me!  Best wishes to everyone in your company!

Dear Bob,

My experience with Seal It has been positive, start to finish. When you came over to look at my basement, you explained the process to me and provided me with literature on the insulation value of open and closed cell spray foam insulation. Wondering whether to insulate my whole basement or just one section, Seal It provided me with the breakdown of costs

Once we set a date for the work, the Seal It crew arrived on schedule, went to work and left my basement neater then they found it.

My old house feels less drafty and the heat is more even throughout, including the kitchen, built over a crawlspace on the north end of the house, which Seal It also gymnastically insulated.

Because I converted from an oil burner to natural gas a few months after Seal It finished its work, and because we've had a mild winter, I can't say that I saved X number of dollars and that Seal It is the reason. But I'm entirely happy with the job your company did.

As a business owner, I can appreciate great customer service coupled with a great product. When we started looking into spray foam for our basement, I called four different insulators and received four different options on what to do. What I appreciated most about Seal It was the time their sales team spend answering my questions, and the confidence they instilled in their plan and product. Seal It was heads above their competitors in this regard. Their spray team was prompt, polite and did an extremely thorough job. And most importantly, it's made a huge difference in our home's heat loss!

Bob & John,
I hope you do very well on your purchase of Seal It. The timing looks great with soaring heating bills!

Although we have not yet experienced a full heating season with our new house, the indications from April and May were very positive. The strong winter winds across Harpswell sound did not penetrate our house thanks to the open cell foam! On days with any solar gain at all the heating system rarely came on since the house retains heat very well.

This summer, I have been very impressed at the difference in our attic temperatures. On days in the 80's, the attic has stayed only moderately warmer than the second floor, probably 15-20 degrees cooler than it would be with standard fiberglass insulation in the ceiling. This means the house stays cooler, and we do not have to contend with hot, stuffy sleeping conditions. I needed to be convinced about the hot roof concept, but so far you can consider me a convert!

The Seal It team was great to work with, happy to answer my many questions, and very accommodating in getting our installation done just right!
