Review by John M.in Lombard, IL Project: Install Spray Foam Insulation
Steve is the "GURU" of insulation. I talked to other contractors who didn't want the job after viewing the 3/4" space to be filled. It was a difficult project and he's got a great crew that worked long hours to complete the job.We had a lot of furniture and they covered everything. They made a really big mess and cleaned everything very nicely before they left. That crew was wonderful. I highly recommend Steve and his crew.

Review by Jane H.in Chicago, IL Project: Install Spray Foam Insulation
Steve and his company are truly insulation specialists. In providing the quote, he spent time patiently listening to our needs and evaluate our newly-built second floor addition and provided the best advice for the solution. We did both foam spray and cellular insulation on our 1000-square-foot second floor addition.Their work was very impressive, giving us high R-value, using high quality materials, fantastic sound reduction, and sealing 100 year old air leaks in our brick bungalow where the old construction joined the new. Steve's attention to details makes his service stand out. We highly recommend Shane Saunders Insulation Specialist.

Review by Stephen B.in Rockford, IL Project: Install or Upgrade Blown-In Insulation
I went with Shane because he is local and offered a good price. I think he did a pretty good job. I would have liked to see depth indicators throughout the attic to show me (and them) how much insulation was actually blown in.

Review by a customerin Machesney Park, IL Project: Install or Upgrade Blown-In Insulation
Shane and his 2 workmen were very neat and efficient. They explained everythimng to me and helped me make some decisions regarding our attic insulation. They put tarps down to protect my carpet and vaccuumed up when they were done. I would definitely recommend them to others.
