This company blew 10"-12" of cellulose insulation on top of the original insulation in our 11 year old home. The original insulation had settled exposing the very top of the trusts in certain areas. The over-all process from receiving an estimate for the work and installation was flawless and a much better experience than what I expected. The company was professional, very informational, easy to work with, and always on time for any appointments. There work was also very clean! I would recommend for anyone to consider Payless Insulation, I truly believe you won't be disappointed!!!

Got insulation added last month. It made a tremendous difference in inside temps! No longer sweating during the day and HVAC no longer struggling. The installation crew was was professional and got the job done in a couple of hrs or less, and took care not to damage drywall etc.

We needed insulation added to the attic of our condo. Payless provided great service and from my first inquiry email to the payment, it only took 3 weeks. They worked around our schedule and made it easy. The insulation team was professional and CLEAN! I would definitely recommend Payless to friends and family!

I had Payless come out add >12 of insulation in our attic to reduce humidity in the home. Initially i asked if they did insulation under the floor and they said they didnt but that attic insulation would solve the humidity. They did a great job, were very attentive. Their customer service is utterly unparalleled. They cleaned everything up and when they left if was as if theyd never stepped good in the house. Arguably left it cleaner than it was when they arrived. That being said, it didnt reduce the humidity at all, unfortunately. I dont blame them, I just think its an an

I rarely write reviews, but I really want to give some praise to Payless. We had soundproofing insulation blown into the walls and ceiling around our media room. They meticulously covered floors, the stairs and our AV equipment. Their blower likely needs to be connected directly to your breaker panel because it requires 40 Amps. In the process of connecting to our panel, one of our breakers was damaged. It was minor to moderate damage, mostly cosmetic. But on his lunch break their worker went to Home Depo and replaced my breaker without me even having to ask. These guys acted entirely professional

Five stars for Payless Insulation! The most professional, experienced and delightful group of people to weatherize my home! If you are searching for an insulation company to weatherize your home you can stop searching! The administrative staff, inspector and technicians explained everything to me in layman's terms, protected my property, worked diligently, and they followed up after they completed the job. So, now that my home has passed the "Blower Door Test" my home is cooler without having to run my AC and I love my new Solar Screens!
