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.

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.

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.

Evergreen did a fantastic job insulating our 1930's home. The onsite team was professional, clean, and really just a joy to interact with throughout the process. A blower test at the end showed a significant decrease in air leakage. I highly recommend Evergreen.

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!

We absolutely loved our experience with Evergreen. The team was incredibly kind, professional and great to work with. We're very impressed with the quality of work of the Evergreen team and how easy they made everything! Our house had barely any insulation ahead of this project and the results are amazing. Insulating the attic, walls and basement with Evergreen allowed us to tear a 50-year-old furnace, ductwork and oil tank out of the basement and now heat the home with new heat pumps. Evergreen also added 100 sq ft of clean, new storage space to the attic!

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…

I highly recommend Evergreen! 1st, I had a home efficiency inspection (that was free) & Bryan P. was great! He took the time needed, asked & listened to what I thought were priorities, explained clearly what he thought were priorities & why, then gave me numerous options. No pressure whatsoever. Then I had my attic sealed & insulated as the 1st step & Bryan came along on day 1 to introduce everyone & make sure we were all on the same page. Bruce's team (inc. Kelsey & Roland) did the work - they were exceptional!!

Evergreen has insulated two homes that we've owned now and both times we experienced exceptional service and craftsmanship. Our rep, Justin, went above and beyond answering questions and the installation team was attentive to every detail, including pulling out old poorly installed insulation and redoing a bathroom fan that wasn't up to current code. They also left the place spotless every day! Our home is already so much warmer this fall and we are looking forward to using less oil this winter.

Evergreen did a fantastic job replacing 28 windows in our house. They were friendly, courteous, and very detail oriented. Brian did a great job planning, estimating and executing the project. Our energy use has dropped significantly since the work was done.

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.

Great job installing windows and insulation.

Evergreen is the "go-to" company for improving the efficiency of your home. There are others to choose from but none so effective, honest, and capable as Evergreen. They did a great quantity of dense packing cellulose to improve our home (both for energy efficiency and for sound insulation) and it was totally successful. They are on-time, helpful, and caring. They clean up to a level that can't be over emphasized. This was the second time we employed them and we'd use them again if the opportunity came. You'll not be sorry to select Evergreen.

First we have Evergreen do a BIG project worth about $20K (windows, basement, insulate & rebuild an entire wall, a door, attics, and air sealing). They were so great we had them come back later when we decided we did want to do our other door. They are professional and do great work. They take care of your home and are trustworthy, and on top of all that friendly! I highly recommend you call them!

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.
