Very helpful, friendly and customer service oriented owner with no attempts for additional sell-ups. Trusted him right away. A timely and on schedule operation.

Brian and crew did and excellent job in all facets of this project, from quoting to close out. Brian also shared his knowledge about how to maximize environmental rebates. Panda finished their R60 work in our 1500 sq ft attic in well less than half a day and left behind a spotlessly clean job site. Thanks Guys

I am very pleased with the service provided by Panda insulation - very efficient and professional. From the beginning it was seamless and pleasant experience. Brian inspected our existing attic insulation and recommended what needs to be done to improve it. He explained every step of the process. Paul and his assistant arrived to our house as scheduled, didn't waste any time, worked non-stop till the job was completed and left our house spotless. I would highly recommend Panda insulation to anyone looking for high quality expertise in attic insulation. Thank you Panda insulation for your outstanding work and commitment to customer satisfaction!

Panda insulation rep Brian , was most prompt in his estimate. Another company did not even respond. Brian communicated well and was open to discussion of quantities needed and costs. We looked at product coverage sheets and adjusted downwards where appropriate. I particularly liked that he said that they would adjust price down if less material was needed. That in fact was the case and Brian was true to his word and dropped the final cost to reflect that. Paul and his assistant were pleasant and very thorough in their cleanup. I felt the job was well done, the price was favourable for adding 9-10 of blown glass to 800 sq ft of attic space, and adding internal vent extensions as needed. Brian was open to discussion particularly with reference to materials and costs and Panda demonstrated integrity in honouring the most honest best outcome for this customer. Whole hearted endorsement from me.

What to check before you hire

Worth checking yourself
Only a few public reviews are shown. Ask for recent references you can contact.
Their public evidence comes from a single source. Look them up on another site before deciding.
No credentials are shown here and the business has not claimed this profile. Ask to see certificates and insurance directly.
Trade licensing in Canada is set by each province or territory. Electrical, gas and plumbing are licensed trades almost everywhere (for example ESA for electrical and TSSA for gas in Ontario), so check your provincial regulator that the contractor is certified for the work before you hire.
A construction lien is a real risk: in every province an unpaid subcontractor or supplier can register a lien against your home even if you already paid the main contractor. Hold back the statutory amount (commonly around 10%) and get signed lien waivers as you pay.
Ask to see a portfolio of completed work like yours, plus recent references you can contact.
