Rewarding Work at an Award-Winning Company

Back to Blog

Many Mainers have used the forced downtime we experienced in 2020 to take a hard look at their career path and make a change. Perhaps for you, it means leaving a stale job behind and starting anew in a promising career. 

What are you looking for in a job? Is it a fun team of co-workers you enjoy spending time with? Is it working with your hands, providing an important service to your friends, family, and neighbors? Is it learning a challenging skill and honing your craft? Or perhaps you’re just looking for a job that you don’t mind doing every day where you feel respected and your hard work is valued. 

Here at Evergreen Home Performance, we take our work environment seriously. We’re a locally-owned home renovation contractor that specializes in improving the energy efficiency of Maine homes. We also specialize in seeking to create a work environment where employees stay because they like what they do and who they do it with.

Our field and weatherization technicians, project managers, energy advisors, and customer service representatives are vetted for a positive attitude first, then for experience and qualifications second. Why? Because you can’t train a positive attitude and a good work ethic! If you are looking for a rewarding job here in Southern Maine, Portland, Rockland, or the Midcoast area, we are hiring—and here’s why we think you should join our team

Teamwork Makes the American Dream Work

In a recent survey of all our employees, team camaraderie was regularly referenced as a benefit of the job. Our locally-owned business is built on small teams. Whether you are deploying from the Rockland or Portland location in a company truck, or working as part of the sales team, every employee is a person, not a number.

The American Dream might mean something different to every individual, but helping our employees work in an environment where they enjoy what they do (and who they do it with) every day is a part of our American Dream, and we hope it will be yours, too. 

We’re Here to Help You Grow

As we mentioned, all you need is a positive attitude to start doing good work here at Evergreen Home Performance. 

As one of our employees put it when surveyed, “I came into this field with no experience in the trades and within a year I feel like I can do 90% of the job already. And that comes from nothing but a great work environment” 

We can teach you everything you’ll need to know about building science, the on-the-job trade tips of being an insulation installer, a window installer, energy auditor, and everything else we do to make the homes of Maine more efficient and comfortable. 

Work With Some Of the Best

By joining the Evergreen team, you will be tasked with rewarding work that helps the environment both globally and locally. However, you will also be joining a team of building science professionals that are set apart from the pack. Evergreen Home Performance has been a top performer statewide in Maine’s home energy efficiency program for many years.

The folks at Evergreen did a great job fixing a rather major insulation problem in my house, which they helped identify with a great audit. When the work began, they were thorough, upbeat, and -- dare I say it -- efficient. I strongly recommend them.

Michael Williams

Awesome company. It was a few years ago that they did the audit and then we commissioned them to do the work. We subsequently sold our house and moved to South Africa, but their level of service and expertise will live on.

Odette Brown

We couldn't be more pleased with the easy, professional, high-value service from Evergreen. Having purchased an older home that had been in our family for generations, we needed multiple upgrades, including insulation throughout. Evergreen insulated our attic with blown-in cellulose, built a new, super-insulated attic hatch, sealed off the old one (which was just a piece of plywood in a closet ceiling), and also talked us through our best options to upgrade our heating system given the plans we have to add onto the house.

We just finished a large project of air sealing and reinsulating our 1890s basement and attic which had been completely renovated 8 years ago but still felt cold and lacked proper energy assessment and corrections. We met with Justin in December and were very impressed with his knowledge, professionalism and communication skills and knew Evergreen was who we wanted to work with. Dave was our on hands project manager and was excellent. The office staff has been quick to respond and helpful as well when needed.

Emily Gallant

Evergreen has just completed Phase 2 of 2 at my home. They are professional, hard-working and courteous. They communicate well..no surprises. They've gone above and beyond to make my home comfortable and were very respectful of my home.I recommend them unequivocally!!!Many thanks to Brian, Brian, Rick, Eddie, Dawson and the rest of the Evergreen crew!!

David Henry Feldman

I would recommend Evergreen wholeheartedly because of their professionalism, their follow through, and thoughtful project planning.

Jennifer A

Working with Evergreen was a dream! Professional, knowledgeable, and super clean work. Communication was fast and service impeccable. The bedroom floors in our 1960's split ranch will be warm with the new insulation between them and the garage. Bring on the snow! (not really, but sort of)

Jess Dee Proctor

A thorough inspection of our (older) house and its energy needs. Competent and personable work crew.

Jacob Watson

We needed basement encapsulation to stop moisture coming up into the house from our regularly flooding basement. We had mold growing on windowsills and furniture. All the staff were friendly, respectful of our home, and easy to work with. Humidity has gone from 70% down to 40% and mold has not grown back after two months. Very grateful.

I used to spend winters in the bathtub because my house was so cold. This was my first winter roaming around my whole house comfortably. This even led me to decorate a little. My heating oil usage has been reduced by over a quarter: I rarely have to boost the thermostat because the temp stays at a constant. The Efficiency Maine rebates, together with the energy savings, make it affordable for me to pay for the loan I took out to finance the project. I do not worry about my pipes freezing.

Great team!

My husband and I bought a home on the water in Owls Head and decided to make the investment in Evergreen's recommendations for insulation. Brian Robinson spent 3 hours examining every nook and cranny before he made practical suggestions and explained them thoroughly to us.

Owls Head

Evergreen Home Performance shows its expertise from start to finish. Evergreen did three house projects in winter/spring/summer 2020 for me, attic insulation, crawl space under a porch insulation, and basement foam/vapor barrier. From my initial discussion with Bryan, I understood the reasons for choosing different types of insulation, the associated costs, and time estimates. Evergreen scheduled in advance, came when they said they would, and the crews were highly professional in their work and demeanor.

Iris S.

Portland

I was very impressed by the professionalism of this company and the workers. Brian R. was very prompt in replying to my questions; the crew was meticulous in all parts of the work and attentive to the safety aspects concerning Covid; and Brian was extremely thorough in the final inspection. My attic is now snug and warm and I've noticed that the second floor is warmer as well.

Julia S.

Rockland

Evergreen did an amazing job insulating our historic home. Their professional staff worked hard to ensure the tough areas in the attic were covered, and clearly communicated their progress. We are seeing the results with our discounted heating bills. Thank you, Evergreen!
