I did a TON of research and got five estimates for insulating my attic and decided to go with Mincin. They were definitely not my lowest estimate but you could tell their work would be thorough when comparing amongst the estimates. I also really liked Amy who came to do the estimate. No nonsense and you get what you pay for. Other companies were going to come and just spray in insulation and leave.
My attic needed a bit more care than that. I could not be happier. My experience was so positive and the insulation has made a massive difference in my house. The men who came to do the work were professional

Mincin did an awesome job of weatherizing my mobile home at 153 Culpepper Court in Virginia Hills located near Imperial, PA. The crew was very professional and thorough in all aspects of their efforts. I could not be more satisfied. My home is noticeably warmer on this 13 degree morning.

I hired this company to insulate my attic. The men who came to do the work were on time, polite and the work was done efficiently in one day. They were conscientious about keeping my house as clean as can be expected while doing the work. I recommend this company to anyone looking for a comprehensive, affordable, professionally done insulation job.

Mincin Insulation was excellent! Everyone we dealt with was wonderful! Haley in the office was always so nice and cheerful. Every time we spoke she was so pleasant. Jason and Bernie did the installation and were super! They were professional and hard working and did the job well. The price was great, especially for doing it all from outside. We noticed a difference in the house the first day, before they were even finished. Highly recommend!
