Services
Insulation Installation
We install fiberglass, cellulose, and spray foam insulation to improve energy efficiency. Our Owens Corning-certified technicians ensure proper R-value for attics, walls, and basements. This reduces heating and cooling costs while enhancing indoor comfort through consistent temperatures and noise reduction.
Air Sealing
Our air sealing services prevent energy loss through gaps and cracks. Using caulking and weatherstripping, we create tight building envelopes that maintain indoor climate control. This service works synergistically with insulation to maximize energy savings and prevent moisture intrusion that could lead to mold growth.
Energy Audits
We conduct comprehensive energy audits using thermal imaging and blower door testing. Our BPI-certified technicians identify air leaks, insulation gaps, and combustion safety issues. This diagnostic approach helps homeowners prioritize upgrades that deliver measurable energy savings and improved indoor air quality.
Crawl Space Encapsulation
Our encapsulation services use closed-cell spray foam and vapor barriers to protect crawl spaces from moisture. This prevents mold growth and improves indoor air quality by sealing damp areas. We insulate walls and rim joists to R-13 minimum standards, creating conditioned spaces that contribute to overall home efficiency.
Sound Control
We install Owens Corning QuietZone acoustic batts to reduce sound transmission between rooms. Our solutions combine mineral insulation with vibration-breaking techniques to lower noise levels by 6-12 dB. This service improves privacy and comfort in residential spaces while maintaining thermal performance.

Report
When asked to perform an in person estimate the service was set for 12:30. The service provider John was here at 12:24 earlier than the set appointment. Our dogs never barked (which they always do) and I walked outside at 12:30 to assist him inside. As I was walking out the vehicle pulled away from my house and turned around and drove past again with me standing outside making eye contact with the service provider! I called the main desk Abby at this time asking what had just happened and why he just left. She proceeded to say he was knocking and nobody answered for several minutes

We had R-Pro remove some blown in insulation and add new insulation to raise the attic R value. The process was smooth from the time John gave us an estimate through installation. They communicated well along the way and I especially liked the electronic approval of the proposal - it was clear what was going to be done and how much it was going to cost. The installation was very professional - they arrived on time, put down tarps to protect our floors, worked efficiently and cleaned up after they were finished. We are very pleased with the outcome and we can already tell our upstairs is warmer

Highly recommend! I had extra insulation added to several areas and roof vents. The guys showed up on time, the work was thorough and they explained as they went along (I ask a lot of questions). They cleaned up after themselves. A pleasure to work with.

R-Pro really came through for me! I was having siding done by another company and they were ready for my project a month early, but I wanted to have a quick insulation job done first. I was having estimates done the same week the siding wanted to get started and R-Pro was the only company able to squeeze me in, plus they were the best price. (I also had another company tell me they had a $1500 minimum and my job was too small for them!). They did the estimate Tuesday and insulated on Thursday (a 2 hour job). It didnt hold up my siding at all! Thank you so much! Everyone was extremely professional

We went from 0, nothing, to whole home insulation. This company did an amazing job working to save us money every step of the way. We felt the difference immediately! The crew have multiple certifications and are experts above and beyond what we expected. Friendly, professional, and hard working don't do justice to describe the employees and the installation process. Couldn't be happier with the results!

I am a first time homebuyer and my home inspector highly recommended I find a qualified insulation installer to insulate my attic as it only had an R-4 to R-12 value. R-pro was the first company I called to come do an estimate on my house. The estimator was extremely kind, helpful, and professional. With this being my first house they were very understanding of my limited funds and they worked with me to find an affordable solution. I ended up getting three more estimates and R-Pro had the most affordable insulation plan. When it came time to do the installation, the crew called to say they were
