Hired these guys to help out with a project they did not even know the code for the right insulation on our building and then filed a lien on our property when we refused to pay them after a failed inspection. We then called the manufacturers of the spray foam and they told us that Knez's spray foam that was installed, does not need 2hr fire code safety assembly. Watch out for these guys these guys they are unethical we are in the middle of filing a complaint with the CCB and then will pursue legal action.
Watch out for Bart Stageberg he is the one who talked us into purchasing the spray foam instead of regular insulation. He has no idea what he's doing, lies about it and is very disorganized. We had to tear out all of the insulation in most of the walls and the entire ceiling. 1700 sq ft worth. I'll be adding pictures as proof as well. Their attorney is in my opinion one of the worst people to ever walk the face of the earth. If your looking for a rude, belligerent, jerk to work for you I would give Mark O Cottle a call.

Well I had an appointment scheduled for 4:30 on 5/8 for an insulation quote that was scheduled for a little over a week. 30 min before the appt I received a phone call saying "my boss won't let me leave the office until 5:15" I told him it wouldn't work and 4:30 tomorrow (5/9) would be better. He agreed and we set up a new appt for 5/9 at 4:30. Well yesterday rolls around and it's 4:50 so I call and my information was taken to receive a call back to inform me what was going on.
Long story short no technician ever showed up, never received a phone call letting me know what was going on. Needless to say my time was wasted, and I'll never be calling them again for anything.

Knez did the under insulation and attic insulation on a side job for me. After inspecting their work I was impressed with what they did. There crew went above and beyond in doing it correctly.
