A whole-home energy upgrade expert, NOT just insulators! From the start of our remodel, I was looking for a state-of-the-art insulator that could think beyond "how many fiberglass batts". This is the ONLY company on the SF Peninsula that I found that delivered that and MORE. Out of the 3 quotes I got, SDI was the ONLY one that was priced with the others that offered energy knowledge and a whole-home approach to energy efficiency. The ONLY one. The two other consultants I called did not do business past the east bay.

Matt C. and Pamela V., my project contacts, instantly understood that

GREAT company to work with. Pamela came over, measured and scheduled the installation. Alfredo called to follow up on and confirm our appointment twice. Crew came in and did our small bedroom under 2 hours. They were quick and neat. Highly recommend SDI Insulation. They were FABULOUS!

I spent a fortune on sound proofing insulation and it made zero difference. Asked for a refund and they wouldnt accommodate. I was promised it would block sound like a sound studio and its literally no different. Dont spend the money or go elsewhere, this was a very disappointing investment.

We have a gas fireplace in our family room and wanted one in our living room as well. Cost was a huge concern as the gas main is on the opposite side of the house where the fireplace is (approximately 60 feet of gas line). I had received estimates of $4,000 and $5,000 just for the gas line install. This was way over budget and we were about to forget the idea. I spoke with Tony Pham at SDI Fireplaces and he worked with us to find
