PLANNINGWhat a free home efficiency assessment covers
Short answer: about 90 minutes at your home, a look at your attic, windows and doors, measurements, a product demo, and a written plan you keep, whether or not you hire us. No pressure, no “today only” price.
Before the visit
You request an assessment online or call us, and we find a time that works. It helps to have a recent electric bill handy and a list of the rooms that bother you most, such as a hot upstairs bedroom or a drafty front door.
What we look at
- Your attic. We measure how deep your insulation is, look for gaps and packed-down areas, and check for air leaks around the attic hatch, lights and wiring. Insulation is the most common gap we find in DFW homes. How much do you need?
- Your windows. Frame type and condition, failed seals and fogged glass, drafts, how well they open and lock, and which ones take the most sun.
- Your doors. How the front, patio and garage-to-house doors fit, the condition of the weatherstripping and threshold, and the door material.
- How your home feels. We'll ask about hot or cold rooms, noise and your bills, because the problems you notice point to the fixes that matter.
What you get
- A written plan, ranked by impact, so you can see what to do first and what can wait.
- Upfront pricing for every item, in writing.
- Honest priorities. If the attic will do more for your comfort than new windows, we'll say so, even when it's the smaller job.
What it doesn't include
Our assessment focuses on the attic, windows and doors. It isn't a home inspection, and we don't service HVAC equipment. If we notice something outside our work, like leaky ductwork, we'll tell you and suggest who to call.
After the visit
Take your time. The plan is yours to keep. If you decide to move forward, we schedule the work, manage the installers and do a final walk-through with you. Want a rough idea first? Try our savings calculator.
