A Career Making a Difference for Our Environment

Back to Blog

Priorities have shifted for many Mainers in the wake of a global pandemic. Some have taken the opportunity to make a job change, and for others, that decision was made for them when they lost their jobs due to a struggling economy. But whatever the reason you may be looking for a career change, working in an industry that is making a global and local difference will always come at a premium. This is why we think you should join our team of weatherization technicians, energy advisors, customer service representatives, and project managers here at Evergreen Home Performance. 

Make a Difference—For Your Living!

If you are a driven, hard-working individual, of course doing your best work is the goal. But what if the work you are doing can also be good for the planet and for the state of Maine? This is the goal here at Evergreen—to do our best to improve the homes of Maine, making them more comfortable, more efficient, and healthier —  all while striving to be a great place to work and grow.

Through targeted and science-based home improvements like insulation, air sealing, energy audits, window replacement, and attic or basement work, we help reduce the carbon footprint of the housing stock of Southern and Midcoast Maine, which slows the harmful effects of climate change both locally and throughout the rest of the world. 

Help Maine Reach Its Environmental Goals

In December of 2020, the Maine Climate Council, in conjunction with Gov. Janet Mills, outlined a plan to take immediate action against the harmful effects of human-created carbon emissions. This plan will put Maine on a trajectory to decrease greenhouse gas emissions by 45% by 2030 and 80% by 2050, and achieve carbon neutrality by 2045, creating 30,000+ jobs in renewable energy and efficiency. But accomplishing this goal will require Mainers like you to bring it to fruition. We need you on our team. As Maine’s top performer in home weatherization measures, our company plans to grow to meet the challenge and help secure a cleaner, brighter future for our rivers, coastline, and forests!

Work With Some Of the Best in the Business 

No one wants to join a hum-drum team that uses run-of-the-mill equipment, operates on outdated techniques, and is fine with just barely getting the job done—you want to work with the best! We make it a point to set ourselves apart and to stay on the cutting edge of building science. Evergreen is proud to have been a top performer statewide for many years in Efficiency Maine’s home energy program and our work consistently receives high praise in 3rd party quality assurance inspections.

In the final stages of selling our home, and with a closing date set, an inspection came across an unanticipated issue in our attic. We quickly called in contractors, but nobody was able to identify the source of the problem. Then we thought of Evergreen. Brian Robinson was on site the next morning and immediately identified the source (a faulty roofing job completed three years earlier which had effectively sealed up portions of the ridge vent and restricted air flow - not easily visible with a quick inspection).

Great job installing windows and insulation.

Led by Brian Robinson, the Evergreen Home Performance team just completed an insulation refit at my home. It was truly a great experience from start to finish, a period of time that was a fraction of the time that I originally anticipated due to the team's unbelievable work habits and professional knowledge of their tasks. As impressive were the communication skills and friendliness of each and every member of the team.

They were highly recommended. I found them to be very knowledgeable and so helpful, with practical ideas. Despite my not living within their service area, they were generous with their knowledge, describing the usual solutions to correct leaks in my basement, and what the result is likely to be by following path A, B or C, and why. I was discouraged. Talking with Evergreen helped me see that my basement problems are far from insurmountable and really, fairly common in 100-year old homes. There are proven solutions.

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

I never leave reviews, but had a great experience with Evergreen and wanted to spread the word! In short, we worked with them to insulate our roof this winter and have noticed surprising immediate results. The constant ice dams I have wrestled with are completely gone, and the home is noticeably more comfortable. It's a little too early to tell if our oil bill is going to reduce, but I imagine we will see an impact there as well.

Evergreen was so helpful in securing us Efficiency Maine funding for a big attic insulation project early this winter. They did all of the paperwork, and totally guided us through a vermiculite removal process that included a payment from a trust for the procedure. I could instantly feel the second floor being so much warmer than before. The boiler does not kick on nearly as frequently since they completed the job. It was worth every penny! Brian Robinson was so thorough throughout the whole process including a full walk through after the job had been completed.

The Evergreen crew who installed insulation in my attic were fantastic! They were very professional, worked exceedingly hard, and they did an excellent job. They were very pleasant and friendly to be around. They cleaned up beautifully after each work day, and left my home in great shape on when they walked out the door for the last time. I can't believe they were able to accomplish all that they did with heat soaring into the 80s and 90s. It was pretty unbearable up there! They have my highest praise and my gratitude.

Evergreen came back this year to finish insulating our house. We have been remodeling and renovating an 1850s cape for several years. Their employees are very professional and pleasant to deal with. Over several years Brian Robinson has been able to schedule us in for several small areas that needed addressing and finally turning a room we used to close off in the winter into a comfortable usable space. We primarily heat with wood and since Evergreens great work our furnace has only come on ONCE this winter. Fantastic. Really satisfied customer in Thomaston.

"Working with Evergreen from start to finish was a great experience." See what our customers have to say about their experience with Evergreen Home Performance.

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!

I am very pleased with my experience with Evergreen Home Performance. I met several times with Richard Burbank and he was very detailed in his explanations to all of my questions. He provided me with several options for improving the insulation to our home. The team of installers were very professional and respectful of our home. They did a great job of cleaning up every day after the days work and they were also very responsive to all my questions as well as we collaborated to get our home better insulated. It was a pleasure to work with Richard and…

We had a fantastic experience working with Evergreen to insulate our roof this winter. Everyone was extremely friendly throughout the process - the crew at our home worked hard, were approachable with questions, and the team leader even showed me around the project to point out specific areas they were working to improve.

Joel Wentz

Really great experience from start to finish with Evergreen. They helped us prioritize what needed to be completed first, and has made a significant difference in our hearing costs already. Plus they were really friendly and considerate to work with!

Highly recommended. Our heating usage is now less than half what it was before we had our roof insulated. Evergreen was knowledgeable, friendly, and left no trace they were ever in our house. Not only is our heating bill much lower now, but our home is generally more comfortable year-round with less temperature fluctuations. Money well spent.
