Testimonials for Dr. Energy Saver Connecticut

The guys were fantastic, clean, neat and did everything right!

I would like to compliment you on your wonderful employee, Keith Saunders. We had been considering encapsulating our crawl space and ended up not doing so because of a likely move, but our discussions with Keith were great. He was patient with my never-ending questions, clearly explained the procedure and the reasoning behind it, and was generally a pleasure to deal with. I hope to have the opportunity to recommend him and your company.

I just want to let you know that I had a wonderful experience with your employee Keith Saunders, and I don't remember if I had a chance to tell you.  He was so knowledgeable, patient, and courteous. We certainly wouldn't let anyone else do the work if we end up staying on the East Coast.

We were referred to Dr Energy Saver by our daughter, they came out and were able to address our basement water issue at our home in Hamden. We are so pleased with the crew who installed our job.  They were pleasant and easy to talk to and very helpful. The crew took special care with our furniture by covering it in plastic when needed while working in our basement.      

From the initial sales call to completed project everyone at Connecticut Basement Systems was knowledgeable and professional. Rudy and the installation crew are awesome. The office staff were very professional. My salesman, Chad, was very knowledgeable and guided me through what would be best for my house. The crew was great during cleanup. Aces all the way. I am so happy I hired Connecticut Basement Systems. I hired the company because I believe Larry Janesky’s organization is successful from top to bottom. Thank you all so much I couldn’t be happier with the job you did for me.

We have an old house.  It was built in 1940, but we think it was earlier than that.  When we first bought the house, everyone said “It’s a good starter home for you.”  Well, we are still here.  Anyone who owns an old home can tell you that the projects never end.  And when they do you start all over again.  We had replaced our old oil burning furnace and gas hot water tank a few years back, but recently they both decided to die at the same time.  When we had that wicked below zero cold snap around Christmas time, our burner was not working.  We were using space heaters and the fire place. We had drafts all the time and this kept the furnace running more consistently.   We found out about Dr. Energy through the Smart E- Loan Program with the Connecticut Green Bank.  They were listed as one of the contractors.  With the type of loan we got (bundle) we were able to get a few things done: insulation, windows, and furnace/hot water heater. I felt a lot of confidence in Dr. Energy Saver of CT knowing that they were being recommended by the Green Bank. Since our house was so old, there was no insulation in the walls. Dr. Energy Saver of CT  installed Dense Pack TruSoft Cellulose and we noticed immediately the drafts were gone. In addition to the insulation, we also upgraded our windows.  The house has been upgraded to save money on our energy costs. So far we have only had one oil delivery for the year.  We expect one more.  But before we had all the work done, we probably spent close to an extra $1,000 on oil.  We are anxious to see how this will translate in the spring and summer when they complete installing the new windows in the house.  I can tell already, from the basement windows, that we will experience a big difference not to mention how much more modern the house looks.  The improvements we have made over the years, we have tried to keep some of the old house charm combined with modern upgrades.  The windows should surely help escalate the house’s value. We worked with Keith Saunders as our salesman.  Keith was low key, knowledgeable, and informative.  At first we were not planning to be as expansive in our project, but Keith broke everything down in a graphic and detailed manner so we knew what was both feasible and necessary.  He was in constant contact with me during the financing phase and helped coordinate with both the CT Green Bank and our lender.  Johnny and his crew handled the insulation and the basement windows.  They were clean, efficient, and professional. They explained everything beforehand, left no messes, and tried to stay as unobtrusive to our family routine as possible.  They had to detach the outside siding in order to blow in the insulation.  When they had finished, I could not tell where they had removed the siding. One thing that surprised me about working with Dr. Energy Saver of CT was how fast the work got done.  The workers were clean ( as far as not leaving any messes) and how much of a change we felt in the house.  We felt like, “Why didn’t we do this a long time ago!”  We would definitely refer Dr. Energy to my neighbors or anyone interested in energy improvements in the house.  They are knowledgeable, polite, and hard working.  They really seem interested in helping you have a better living environment.

I Trusted the salesman at Dr, Energy Saver. He did not try to sell me more than I needed.

Basement Systems performed work in both my current and previous home. In my previous home they installed a perimeter drain and pump system to correct a basement water problem that developed when the home’s foundation waterproofing broke down. Their solution completely solved the problem, and the service was outstanding. In fact I use that experience in public speaking engagements as an example of exceptional service.  From the problem assessment and estimating process to the system installation and spotless clean up their work was outstanding. In my current home Basement Systems installed a similar but more elaborate system. They also sealed the houses crawl space. In both cases the work and experience was as good or better than my initial experience with the company. Most recently Dr. Energy Saver insulated my current home’s attic with spray foam insulation after a roof ice damming problem caused about $90,000 worth of interior damage. Dr. Energy Saver evaluated the cause of the ice damming and determined that heat loss from the attic was melting snow on the roof which then froze at night when the temperature dropped causing ice to form on the roof. The ice prevented water from draining off the roof which then backed up and into the house. By spraying foam insulation on the underside of the roof and the walls of the attic Dr, Energy Saver stopped the heat loss and resulting ice damming. An extra bonus is that the insulation reduced my heating and cooling bills by at least 1/3.   My experience with both Basement Systems and Dr. Energy Saver was far better than any other contractor or home service provider I have used before, and I recommend them both to you highly!

We are extremely satisfied with the air sealing and insulation we had done in our home! The team was prompt and thorough with very good service. The Doctor spent a good deal of time with us and explained things. We met Dr. Energy Saver at a RV, camping show.

Dr. Energy Saver did an excellent job air sealing and insulating my attic. I am impressed with their professionalism and dependability. I can not say enough about the crew who installed my work, they had great customer service skills and allowed me to see what they were doing in my home and they were also very helpful!

Dr Energy Saver did an excellent job insulating my attic in my Bristol home. I went with Dr Energy Saver because they offered a great solution for insulating my attic that has live knobs and tubes. The crew who installed my super attic system were very courteous and industrious. I will recommend Dr Energy Saver to my family and friends.

The top reasons I hired Dr. Energy Saver is for the foam insulation which offered a better R-value and to have a better comfort zone.

Dr. Energy Saver did an excellent job in my Cheshire home. My salesman was very knowledgeable. The install crew was excellent and so was the quality of work. Whatever you pay these guys its not enough!

I can't say enough about Rick Searles and Dr. Energy Saver.  Rick was a true professional, had lots of information, was courteous and patient, and everything he said made snese.  I had other contractors in who just wanted to sell me what they wanted, not what I wanted.  They didn't make sense. Air sealing and insulation made sense and Rick showed me why! I highly recommend Dr. Energy Saver to anyone.

I give the guys a 5 out of 5!  They were very polite and I am very happy with the attic insulation they did on my home here in East Haven.  They had to insulate the flat part of the attic and the sloped parts..  I will have them back to replace my basement windows next year.
