Our Process

Evergreen Home Performance is committed to helping Mainers create healthy, efficient homes. Our home performance projects improve comfort and indoor air quality and can cut your energy bills by 25% or more!

What to Expect When You Hire Evergreen

When you partner with Evergreen Home Performance for your home improvement project, we’ll be there to help you achieve your home energy efficiency goals every step of the way!

Step 1: Evaluating Your Home's Energy Efficiency

Our whole-home evaluation process allows us to identify and diagnose the key performance issues in your home so that we can recommend the right energy saving solutions.

Schedule a Free On-Site Consult

If you’re curious about how a project with Evergreen could help you be more comfortable in your home, you can schedule a FREE one-hour consultation with an Evergreen Energy Advisor. During the visit, our Energy Advisor will discuss:

• What are the current conditions that are making you uncomfortable in your house?
• What are your long-term and short-term goals for your home? 
• What are your priorities? What areas of the home should we target right away?

From there, we’ll perform a preliminary inspection throughout your home, looking for air leaks and insulation gaps to indentify where insulation and air sealing upgrades will provide the best, long lasting value.

A Good Project Plan Starts With a Home Energy Audit

Once you’ve decided to move forward, we’ll gather more detailed data about your home and its energy use. A home energy audit is used to create a customized plan that outlines the project cost and its estimated energy savings. When the results from the energy audit are finalized, we'll work with you to develop an appropriate project plan based on those results.

Step 2: Completing Home Performance Services

Once we know what’s causing the problems in your home, we’ll work ith you to implement lasting solutions. Evergreen offers comprehensive insulation and air sealing services to make your home more comfortable and energy efficient.

Insulation

Many homeowners are surprised to learn that insulation can benefit your home year-round, but it’s true! Insulation is your home's best protection against exterior temperatures influencing interior comfort and driving up your energy costs.

Air Sealing

Did you know that air-sealing (in addition to added insulation) will make an enormous difference in the efficiency, comfort and indoor air quality of your home? It's true!

During home construction or renovations, it’s common for builders to leave small gaps and holes in your home’s outer “shell” or hidden within the framing of ceilings,walls and flooring. This impacts your home’s energy efficiency and can also give household pests easy access to your living areas. Air sealing these areas can prevent air leakage and pest infestation, making your home healthier and more energy efficient.
