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.

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.

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.

Very easy process, start to finish.  Friendly, professional, and really know their stuff.  They made some improvements to our condo and we were very happy with how it played out.  Would definitely recommend them.

Clayton Eames

Evergreen did everything they said they would and more. I actually don't mind going into the basement now since they sealed it. The air quality in the house is noticeably better and it's warmer in the winter. We can even store clothing down there where before, whatever was in there would mildew. Even the spider population declined! I used to vacuum so many of them from the corners of the ceilings in the house. Not any more!

Loriel Van Dusen

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.

Thanks Evergreen Home Performance for helping to make our home more efficient. Many thanks as well to Bryan for the initial walk through and recommendations to make our home more efficient and to Dave, Roland, and Jacob for a job that was done professionally and courteous.  We were amazed at the level of efficiency and everyday they made sure to protect our floors, carpets, and furniture. We had daily discussions with Dave about progress and what was being done and where they were at in the project.

Carol Fink

I cannot say enough great things about working with Evergreen Home Performance. Everything including the initial consultation, the fabulous work crew, the office support and the final resolution was handled in a caring and professional manner. My only regret is that I did not know about them earlier. I enthusiastically recommend Evergreen to anyone with concerns about home energy use.

Darlene R

Bath

Great company. Very professional and thorough. They take the time to explain everything and offer options to fit your budget. Wonderful experience from start to finish.

Bonnie Eustace

I have always been impressed by the high level of service, quality of work, and excellent follow-through provided by Evergreen Home Performance in the three projects that they completed at the Wells Reserve at Laudholm over the past several years.

Paul D.

Wells

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

Great job installing windows and insulation.

Bob S.

Rockland

I had gotten estimates from several other companies, but Evergreen was in another league entirely with their professionalism. If you want the job done correctly, I couldn't recommend this company enough.

Rayna Mayo

Freeport

I made the mistake of NOT hiring this company last year when I bought and renovated my home. I have brought them in now and what a difference. This group knows what they are doing. They take a complete look at everything and believe they can make your home more energy efficient. They are very professional in the way they approach problems and solutions. And they find ways to save me money. Don't bother with anyone else. Bring Evergreen in before you do anything. Let them assess your issues and give you the right solutions.

Shaw

Owls Head

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

Jacob Watson

The Evergreen team was amazing from initial assessment and planning to the crew that came to complete the work. Our basement encapsulation is the best money we've spent on our house by far. The work was thorough and high quality. And what a wonderful group of people to work with. I highly recommend Evergreen!
