Your crew did an incredible job with the encapsulation and the foaming. Kevin is a great communicator and really cares about what he is doing. I can’t remember his partner’s name but he was excellent also. I can’t thank you enough!!

Thanks for sending James and David out to finish the work on our house. They really went above and beyond to make sure our house is air tight. Very impressed with their work and kind attitudes!

I am super excited about the crawlspace. Joe suggested I email Hal Smith too. I hadn’t sat down to do it yet, so he’s getting copied on this. We can’t believe Joe and crew did it in only three days. I haven’t gone down there yet...just peeked through the access window, but I bought a worklight string like Joe had to light up the place, so I’m ready.  Now I can run a network cable down there that I’ve been holding off on doing. You can’t imagine how this answers a wish I’ve had for thirty years to make the space desirable to enter...clean, bright,  dry, and odor-free. I noticed after the first day of work that the house didn’t smell musty. The new ductwork has made a noticeable improvement in the airflow to the family room, even before a new furnace. Of course I still eagerly await the new equipment next week. I’d love to be in the newsletter and you and anyone from Halco are welcome to a tour. We’re thinking of having a crawlspace-warming for friends and neighbors! Too bad the access can’t be any bigger. Take care of the back. See you soon I hope! Norm

Dear Hal, Wow! One call, and Halco does it all! I am extremely impressed with the service I recently received. The gentlemen Dave, Josh and Ian were very professional, friendly, knowledgeable, polite, and efficient, as well as fun to be with.  As usual, Halco and its employees exceed all my expectations. What a great job that was done in my basement and in my front lawn. Thank you, Dave, Josh, and Ian. You are the best!

I want to make it clear that the two recent tech's were great! Knowledgeable, kind, and did a great job. My experience with your company and each and every tech has been a pleasure. I would and will highly recommend you.

My husband and I recently had our basement waterproofed. We just wanted to let you know how pleased we were with the work James and his helper, David, did last week on our basement. Our basement is not easy to work on, and we really appreciated the quality work that they were able to do on it to help make it safer and drier for our family! James answered many of the questions that my husband had, and we are very impressed with the results so far.

    Crawl Space Encapsulation in Ithaca, NY

    This Ithaca, NY homeowner contacted Halco because he and his wife were interested in adding central air conditioning to their home. In speaking with a Halco home energy advisor during their no-cost assessment, their interest expanded from adding AC to replacing their 28-year-old furnace, installing a tankless water heater, and encapsulating their crawl space. This before and after shows the crawl space portion of the project. After 30 years, these homeowners now have a clean, bright, dry, and odor-free crawlspace!
