Upgrade of attic installation in 24 year old house

The GNI team (Paty, Frank and Jeffrey) did an excellent job in upgrading my attic installation. They arrived on time, explained what would be done, and showed me before and after pictures of all their work. They protected surrounded areas and vacuumed after the job was done.
They were very professional. 5/5

Insulating the attic in an older home

I couldnt be happier with Great Northern Insulations work in my house. Jermaine, Ryan, and Gracie come to top up the extremely insufficient insulation that I had in my attic previously. From the moment they arrived, they took great care to protect my home from what could be a very messy job. After prepping the house, they quickly prepped the attic, protected the soffit vents, and boxed in the hatch with cardboard and foam insulation. Then Jermaine applied the insulation throughout the attic and it looks amazing. The end product will definitely improve our home and our comfort.

Attic Insulation

Great Northern Insulation came and replaced the insulation in our attic space. They did a fantastic job. After the job was complete we still had some roof melting and assumed it was the insulation; Nick came with a thermal cam and was able to show us what the problem continues to be and that it was in fact not the insulation. Great company and super friendly. Highly recommended.

Hi Brent & Jena, We would like to apologize for the frustration you've been experiencing recently. We want you to know we appreciate your feedback. For your upgrades, we were subcontracted by your roofing company to complete the insulation work, and we did complete everything as quoted with that contractor, including a change order. We’re happy our technicians were able to remove and dispose of the old insulation, and that our representative Chris has been in contact with you to further assist. Should you have any further concerns, please reach out to Chris who will be happy to assist you.

Attic insulation

We had additional insulation blown into our attic, as well as additional insulation added to two hatches. The team was on time and efficient. They did a great job and cleaned up after themselves. Our house is now a lot warmer.

We would definitely recommend anyone who need to use their services.
