Constraction reviews in Rowlett, Texas

Neal and his team are very professional. They came to my house at 9 and finish all the job around 5:30. They get the job done perfectly and cleaned the house before they go. I have four companies gave me the quote, but the price from Affordable Radiant Barrier is unbeatable, and their radiant barrier and service are so great. Highly recommend.

Neal took extra time to perform his inspection before a quote was generated. When the quote was provided, it was much lower than his competitors.

The ARB team was professional and performed the install in 1 day. Our attic temperature has dropped at least 30F with the radiant barrier.

Neal and his installers did a great job and he took the time to follow up multiple times after the install so I would highly recommend ARB.

I owe it to Neal and the reviews I got from this page, thus it is only right for me to return the favor to both Neal Jones and this review page to share my experience.

From the initial contact to getting quote, Neal has been very straightforward. He explained how the Radiant Barrier worked and proceed with checking the 3 attic spaces at our house.
I have read a good bit of info about radiant barrier and still, I learned more with him that day.
For those who plan to research, just schedule a call with Neal, he can explain everything in details for 20 minutes and this will save you hours of reading about this on the internet.

Our house have the thermal insulation (blown type) but during 100F days, the 2nd floor can get pretty hot and uncomfortable. Our first floor are all high ceiling, 13-14ft. The AC also struggle to keep up and failed to bring the 2nd floor temperature down to 77-78 F unless it runs constantly during the day and that's with the help of the other 2 units cooling the 1st floor and some (I actually used industrial air mover last summer to blow some cool air upstairs and the sounds of it get to be very annoying real quick).

Prior to Neal, I have asked another contractor who gave me a quotation without really explaining the scope of work, what type of material, which part is included, etc. I really didn't know what I will get for the price (higher than Neal) and whether it will work or not.

I also told Neal that I plan to have a new roof soon and not only he suggested non-black color shingles, he also refer me to a good roofing contractor (which I ended up choosing as he also do the good explanation and price - I want impact resistant shingles).

Long story short - Neal's crew installed the Radiant Heat Barrier for 3 of the attics in a little over a day, including the area that was super hard to reach between the garage and kitchen, soffit vents got replaced to provide better airflow, and Marvin and the crew cleaned up the areas after.
Neal came to check on the barrier installation and again during the roof replacement(for the fan). Marvin came over to check again a week later as well, as I had more unanswered questions.

Summer is not here yet, but I will provide an update when the 100s are here.

Affordable Radiant Barrier is definitely a 5 star provider in our book.

Note: Neal also help me with a mouse trap, which I have been trying to catch/kill for the past 4 months. just one but it's been such a smart creature, avoiding traps, baits, glue, etc.

About a year ago we had radiant barrier installed and it was the best upgrade we have made to our home. We also had tint installed by the same installer on most of our windows
Our upstairs AC had always struggled to keep up with the hot summers here in TX and last year was the first year we were able to keep the temperature where we wanted and it maintained! There was a small issue during install that the owner worked with us to make right. If anyone is considering getting radiant barrier I say stop considering and just get it done. Our only regret is not doing it when we first bought our home years ago.

Mr. Neal was great from the moment we spoke. He came out to view the attic and explained everything thoroughly. I knew when we spoke via phone that I would use his company.
His crew, Mr. Marvin and Mr. Larry, did an amazing job with the radiant barrier, turbine exhaust vents, and attic door. Mr. Marvin also went out of his way to adjust a splash guard on the roof since he was already up there.
Mr. Neal, Mr. Marvin, and Mr. Larry are the coolest professionals! They were awesome... and I had an enjoyable experience with them.

I had three companies including Affordable Radiant Barrier come out to my home to access my attic. I chose AFB because of Neal Jones' thoroughness, attention to me and my needs and his very competitive installation estimate. He spent a lot of time in my attic assessing the 'current' insulation, ventilation and my HVAC's insulation too. He also inspected the soffit vents all around the outside of my home too. He then took a good amount of time to explain his overall install plan and why it would make the most sense for my home. One of the other companies only spent 10 minutes during their inspection. While the third company came back with an estimate that was higher and did not include as much airflow/ventilation improvement work Neal recommended. Besides installing the radiant barrier, AFB put in an electric exhaust fan, and added over 15 new soffit vents (and fixed many of the existing ones that were never installed ((some just had tiny hammer holes)) correctly by the builder 20 years ago. He also came up with a solution to insulate the attic access door in my office (see pic) to help keep that room cooler too.

Neal is professional and friendly. He has a hard working team and while I am not a pro their work seemed very complete was done neatly. They cleaned up so well my attic, garage and yard that you could not tell they had been there. The only thing I had to clean up was some tiny ceiling/paint pieces that fell down from my home's pot lights.

Ultimately, the 'proof' of radiant barrier will come after I access my electric bills for years pre and post install. But if you have decided to add radiant barrier to home's overall insulation package, I recommend Affordable Radiant Barrier.

Neil will quickly review the property need. Marvin and the crew are nothing short of nuclear with the output of workmanship. The property was huge with attic conversion. There dynamics from beginning to end was a positive conclusion. They also worked around my busy schedule. Hats off..

Neal Jones and Marvin Gay both were outstanding in their services.
Came in and identify what could be my main problem. Ridge vents and turbines on my roof. Install radiant barriers and added insulation to bring it up to code. I know I'm not losing any inside tempetures out of my attic or roof thanks to Affordable Radiant Barrier. I wonder if they do windows? This is a great company. Thank y'all Mr. Neal Jones and Marvin Gay

Excellent service!! Neal is great. We completely replaced insulation in the attic due to a rodent problem. Exterminator companies marked up the price 3 times what Neal charged. Handyman sealed up the entry points and boom, we're done!

My husband received three quotes for insulation and radiant barrier installation. We decided to go with Neal and his team because of the detail and knowledge Neal displayed when coming out to give us an estimate. He was very professional and spent a considerable amount of time explaining the process, material he would be using, and pointing out areas in the attic that he and his team could fix during the process. On the day of installation, Neal and his team showed up on time. Neal oversaw the entire process and made sure the project ran smoothly. His team seemed competent, hard working, and professional. There were no issues with the installation and the team left our house as clean as when they arrived. Neal even patched up some roof holes and took down some wasp nests for me in the process. The entire process took approximately 7-8 hours. What I really liked about Neal was that he kept us in the loop throughout the entire project - before, during, and after. I would recommend AR Barrier (Neal) to any friend, neighbor, or family member needing insulation or wanting to install Radiant Barrier in their attic for energy conservation.

A+. Had the privilege to work with Neal and Marvin, really great communication and transparency about our project (radiant barrier and insulation for a recent home purchase). Walked me through the whole process, showed up on time, and actually finished on time. Quality shows, am still flabbergasted about how the crew was able to walk around in the attic with ease. Already notice a drop in temp in the attic and am not so apprehensive with the looming 100+ degree days ahead. Will definitely recommend without reservations.

Neal was very professional and prompt at answering any questions i had, got a quote from other companies but none were as good as ARB. Neal is very knowledgeable and was able to provide a detailed explanation of what will happen during the project. He went around and spent twice as much time in the attic and around the house compared to the other two companies I obtained a quote from.

Neal's crew was very professional and kept clean after themselves, the install took the whole day but it looked great after it was completed. had radiant barrier installed all over the attic and got an electric fan installed. Extra insulation was added afterwards. There haven't been a lot of warm days but when the temp was 90 degrees outside my attic was also around 90-92 degrees, that's a huge improvement compared to having the attic sit at slightly over 100.

My upstairs AC unit was running 19hours / 24 hours in the summer when temperature was around 100 and could barely keep upstairs temperature under 78. I'll update the review after the summer and compare the performance of the added insulation and radiant barrier.
I would recommend Neal for any attic work.

You know how you hear about "the real deal"? Well, Neal is it, and I've got a story to prove it.
Neal came to our house to give us a quote on insulation, but it turns out he’s a modern-day Sherlock Holmes of the home. As he was up in our attic, he somehow diagnosed a major AC problem that could've cost us a small fortune. I'm talking potentially thousands of dollars in savings, all before he even had his ladder fully retracted.
And he didn't stop there. He noticed our vents were past their prime and that our roof fan was completely out of commission—and we had no idea. He’s incredibly communicative, and his prices are completely fair. In fact, he was a lifesaver after we'd gotten two other estimates that were so far out of our budget they made our wallets weep.
Neal doesn't just give estimates; he provides a comprehensive diagnostic, a good laugh, and a fair price. He’s my go-to guy from now on.
I can’t wait to see the savings in our electric bill with our new radiant barrier and insulation.

I highly recommend Neal and Affordable Radiant Barrier. We got 3 bids, and Neal spent 3X more time in our attic assessing our needs than the other providers. His proposal was more detailed and his price was truly affordable. His crew was efficient and professional. He was fun to work with.

I’ve hired Neal and his team at Affordable Radiant Barrier for the second time, and I couldn't be happier. A few years ago, they did a great job on my first radiant barrier project, so when I needed my attic insulation topped off, I called them again.
Neal is sincere—he walks through the attic and tells you exactly what needs to be fixed without trying to sell you anything you don't need. He also fixed a few areas where the radiant barrier had been damaged during the installation of a new HVAC system. It’s rare to find a contractor in DFW who is this consistent and dependable. If you want it done right the first time (or the second!), call Neal.

I recently had radiant barrier installed in my home, and I couldn't be more pleased with the results. From start to finish, the entire process was seamless. The installation team was professional, efficient, and incredibly knowledgeable. They took the time to explain the benefits of the radiant barrier and how it would improve my home's energy efficiency. Since the installation, I've noticed a significant reduction in my energy bills and a much more comfortable living environment. Overall, I highly recommend Affordable Radiant Barrier installation service to anyone looking to improve their home's energy efficiency and comfort. It's been a game-changer for me!

I can’t say enough good things about this company and the man who runs it. Neal came out to our house personally to look at our home after I told him about our insanely high utility bill our first month in our new home. This is our first home we’ve ever owned and there’s a lot we don’t know. Before Neal even looked in my attics he took the time to help me shop different utility companies and go over what my rates and kilowatt usage should look like. Later that day he emailed me a massive list of utility companies so I can start shopping around for a lower rate.

He then checked all of my air vents in our whole house and explained to me about return and supply vents and helped us realize we needed to also be calling our HVAC people out for an inspection.

After all of this he thoroughly inspected all of our attic spaces (we have three) and was very honest about his plan for them. He almost does exclusively radiant barrier for attics but he said he wouldn’t do it for ours because we lacked soffits. He took time to explain everything (including what a soffit is) and made sure I understood exactly what his plan was for insulation.

Less than 24 hours later he emailed a very reasonable quote. Neal checked in on us multiple times while having our HVAC inspected and seriously he was kind to educate us on so many things. He went above and beyond the call of duty and we wouldn’t want to hire anyone else for the job! This man really cares about the clients he serves!!

Rental i got was fine and staff was ok

This place sucks and over priced

Buen servicio
