We are a remodeling company specializing in the residential market. Weatherhead and Sons has 12 employees and does use some sub-contractors. 2015 will be our 25th year in business.
"We contacted Weatherhead and Son's to get some window's replaced. They told us up front that it would be about 3 months due to all the work they had. This would have put the time frame around late September. In the meantime they demanded the down payment right away and it was paid to them. September came and went and they had not contacted me. I placed several calls and they told me I would have to talk to Jake. After several calls Jake never called. October came and went as I tried contacting them again. It was the same story with the same result. Only when I demanded my down payment back that I got a call. He told me that the new time frame would be within the first two weeks of November. Well...Same story, same results. They are not calling me back and I fear that we are going into winter where the job cannot be done. I am to the point of calling the BBB as well as Kent County if I cannot get my down payment back. This is fraud if they insist on keeping my money for services never rendered. I am so through with them."

"My husband and chose this company to replace our roof several years ago. It has been a very poor experience from the start. The company does not call when they need to reschedule and shows up whenever they please with no communication. They do not return phone calls and do not share what work was completed when doing repairs. We paid for a high quality roofing materials as our house had a roof that was currently leaking. After replacing the entire roof the leak continued and after many phone calls and repairs it was finally fixed a year later. We currently have another leak due to an improperly place vent that is causing a leak on our back porch windows. Yet again they were scheduled and did not show up to complete the job. We constantly have to call to find out when the job will be completed. Still waiting for a call back and we are currently in the process of trying to sell our home, making this all the more frustrating."

Insulation installs or upgrades FAQs
R-value measures how well insulation resists heat flow, which directly affects your home's energy efficiency. The higher the R-value, the better the insulation. By calculating the R-value needed for your specific climate and home design, you can choose the right insulation materials and thickness to keep your home comfortable and reduce heating and cooling costs.
You don't need to remove your old insulation before adding new insulation, as long as it's in good condition. Adding new insulation over existing materials can improve your home's energy efficiency. For example, you can install blown-in insulation around fiberglass batts or place rigid insulation over existing layers to enhance the overall R-value. However, if your current insulation is wet, moldy, or damaged, you should remove it to avoid health risks and maintain optimal performance.
Installing insulation typically takes five to twelve hours for batts or boards, and two to five hours for spray foam or blown-in insulation. The exact time depends on the type of material and your home's layout. If you need to remove old insulation, have a larger home, or hard-to-reach areas, the project may take longer.
The International Association of Certified Home Inspectors has said foam board insulation can last up to 100 years if properly installed. Some insulation materials can suffer from water damage or start to sag over many years, thus reducing their insulating ability. Foam boards shouldn't suffer from sagging but have the potential to get damaged. Any broken pieces of foam board can reduce its insulating effectiveness.
