New Homeowners

With the competitive housing market in Maine stretching from Camden all the way down to Cape Elizabeth, buying a home is no small feat. Congratulations on your new home!

Although you’re undoubtedly excited about your purchase, you may already have a list of things you want to update and improve. With many homes being older, there are likely things that need to be taken into account to ensure your home is a comfortable, safe, and beautiful place for you and your family to enjoy for years to come. With help from a local professional contracting team like the experts at Evergreen and Efficiency Maine rebates and financing, making upgrades now is simple and affordable.

Increase Comfort & Reduce Your Home’s Energy Use

Many homes throughout Southern Maine and the Midcoast region are older, with issues like drafty rooms, damp basements, and ice dams that pop up when it snows. You might be wondering how hot that second floor will be during the summer. An energy audit will help determine just how energy efficient your home is and the solutions that can improve it for greater comfort, decreased energy usage, and ultimately lower monthly bills.

To resolve problems with comfort and energy use, it’s likely your home will need air sealing and insulation, while damp, moldy basements will need encapsulation. If you’re considering remodeling a kitchen, a bathroom, or taking down some walls, having home performance upgrades installed simultaneously will help avoid potentially invasive home projects down the line.

Make Your New Home a Safe Place for Your Family

Regardless of whether you’re just planning on starting a family or are already an empty nester, you want your home to be safe and comfortable for the entire family to enjoy. Taking care of problems with mold, drafts, radon, and lead is essential. Fortunately, you can turn your home into a safe haven with home performance solutions like basement encapsulation that will not only improve comfort and home efficiency, but also significantly improve indoor air quality.

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.

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.

Last week, my oil company asked if we were using some other kind of fuel because our usage was so much less than they had expected We are very happy with the results; the house is much more comfortable

We are thrilled with the job Evergreen did to transform our 213 year old home into a warm, draft-free, cozy space. The entire team led by Bruce was prompt, courteous, knowledgeable, and hard working. If Evergreen could transform our home in this way, we are sure they would make a comparable difference in YOUR home!

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 are so pleased with the work the team from Evergreen Home Performance did in our home. The project included encapsulation of our basement with a reinforced vapor barrier, installation of a sump pump, spray foam insulation on the walls and insulation of the heating duct work. Everyone at Evergreen was friendly and professional. The project was completed on time and in budget. Our home is much cozier and warmer since the project was completed.

Linda Metzger

We had Evergreen energy do blow-in cellulose. I was very happy with the result. They tested with blower-door before and after. House is now MUCH warmer. Also, in the time since when I've had to open walls for various access, I've been impressed with how they got the insulation packed in everywhere. I'd use them again.

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.

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

Jacob Watson

I waited a year to write this review. Evergreen finished our job late last winter. Terrific results!!! we've gone from 12-day propane deliveries to 30+ day propane deliveries. The house is noticeably warmer. The Evergreen crew was/is professional, prompt, thorough, scientific, gracious and immaculate with respect to keeping our house clean. Money well spent.

Professional, friendly and hard-working staff. The product/approach they use for insulation is top notch. We felt the difference immediately, both from added warmth and eliminating drafts. The team and management were easily available to answer our questions or coordinate meeting times. Highly recommended.

The Evergreen crew from initial inception to installation were professional, on time, and left our place spotless. The end result was exceptional.
