Green Collar Operations - Austin, Texas

A friend recommended this vendor and I am thoroughly happy with their work quality and professionalism. Everyone, from the admin staff, to the owner, to the fellows who actually did the work, were respectful, intelligent, and extremely generous with their time, to explain things and to make sure I was satisfied, which I was. They made the process of working with the COA very easy. A+ experience.

Bill was super helpful in helping me understand how our AC worked and why our home wasn't cooling/heating the way we wanted. Also, as a female doing home projects I really appreciated the level of respect I was treated with as well as never feeling talked down to or treated differently than if they were talking to my husband. Other than the service and communication being great, the prices were so much more reasonable and affordable than any other quote we got from other companies. They did a great job on our duct work and would highly recommend!!!

I had the Green Collar team replace all of my ducts, diffusers, plenums, insulate my attic and seal all doors and sweeps. This team is professional & efficient, they were in and out in two days. They worked super clean and were conscious of the environment around them. I was informed of all steps ahead of time and they were super organized. This is a small business with a family like structure, most of the team has been there many years and that's what you wanna see. The job was completed in late September and I noticed immediate results, in the hottest of days my AC would cool faster and cycle less. During that last two freezing weather events the heater cycles less and maintains its temp. Green Collar filed all the rebate paper work for us and got us our rebates from the city quite quickly.

Great experience, easy to work with and awesome results. Bill Cook made everything easy, and made navigating the Austin energy rebates pain free. I highly recommend these guys!

Contacted Green Collar Operations and immediately received a phone call back for an in house inspection and assessment. Adam Eastberg was prompt, called in advance of his arrival and listened to my concerns about several of the trouble spots we had along with areas of the house we were losing temperature. Also had them review our AC distribution flow and vents, along with the vent plates throughout the house.

Adam was kind enough to break out all elements of the job to fit our budget and explain what work needed to be done, materials used and time/labor. He even drew out our current vent and distribution flow and explained what the new flow would look like to better serve our house. Green Collar was quick to get the work scheduled, showed up on time and promptly completed the work on our house. Upon completion the business owner came to our house to review the work to ensure it was done to the highest standard. Was very impressed by the quality of work, the competency of the explanation.
This group was a pleasure to work with and I only wish that more contractors operated the way this team does.
Air Distribution Flow, Insulation, Crawl Space covers - call this team and give them a five star. I've already seen a tremendous difference in our heating and cooling costs and only wish I'd called them sooner

We got bids from three local insulation and weatherization companies, and I was impressed with the comprehensive nature of Green Collar's proposal. It was itemized so that we could prioritize and chose, if we had wanted to do that.All the recommendations were clearly explained and questions answered. The actual installation was on-time, quick, and easy. Everything was done in a professional manner. We felt that we got great value and outstanding service. I would gladly recommend Green Collar to anyone looking for insulation and weatherization services.

We needed an overhaul of our ductwork. Green Collar took out all the old ducts, rebuilt the plenum, installed new ducts as well as jumpers to all of the bedrooms, they tuned and balanced the system, weatherproofed the whole house, and then blew in a bunch of new insulation. Our AC has been running less during the hottest month of the year and we couldn't be happier.

We were really impressed with their communication, the workers were wonderful, they did great work, and didn't leave a mess when they were done. Hopefully, we won't need any more HVAC work for a long time, but if and when we do, we will definitely be calling Green Collar again.

After all these years I'm still cleaning up from using Green Collar. Yesterday I removed all the old calk from the last window they worked on.

I hired Green Collar via a sub contractor AirCo (who installed a new AC system) BTW, this reputable AC company no longer works with Green Collar.

1. Long story short, one of the guys dropped a bucket of sealing mastic on our carpet. They sent a guy out to clean it, it didn't work. They mailed out a $150 check but now the carpet I have in about 1,000SF needs to be replaced.

2. The doors were not sealed properly, I can still feel the air flowing - even after inviting them back to fix the problem.

3. The cheap clear caulk they used around the inside windows has fully dried and looks horrible. It was applied too wide and thin, and now becomes a permanent dust collector.

4. When the performance "test" was completed, it wasn't clear to me that anything was really being tested. I might be wrong here but I would think a before and after test would have meaning.

All in all a horrible experience, I really liked the owner but bottom line, they hire kids who don't care about your house, thus a bad company to work with. They have a great website, Green Collar is a very marketing savvy group but don't get fooled into allowing them into your house. Additionally, I wouldn't put it past them to "stack" their own reviews..
