Insulation in New Whiteland, IN
Crawl space encapsulation and vapor barrier work in New Whiteland tackles the single most common insulation failure we see in this corner of Johnson County: damp, sagging, mold-prone floor joists under 1970s-to-1990s ranch homes built before modern vapor-retarder standards. New Whiteland’s heavy clay soils push moisture against foundation walls, and that moisture ends up exactly where it does the most damage. Call (866) 751-4428 and we’ll give you a straight answer about what’s going on under your house and what it takes to fix it.
Why New Whiteland Homes Are Different
New Whiteland grew fast as a workforce suburb along the US-31 and I-65 corridor, and that growth left behind a dense concentration of ranch and split-level homes built between roughly 1970 and 2000. These houses were framed with 2×4 exterior walls and insulated to pre-1992 energy-code standards, which means R-11 walls and R-19 attics in many cases. Indiana’s current Climate Zone 5 standard calls for R-20 walls and R-49 to R-60 attics, so most New Whiteland homes are running at roughly half the thermal performance they should have.
The climate makes the gap worse. January lows regularly dip into the single digits, and July heat indices push past 100°F. A house that’s under-insulated in this town pays for it twice: high gas bills all winter, and upstairs rooms that never cool down in summer. Add Johnson County’s clay-heavy soil holding moisture against slab edges and foundation walls, and you get a housing stock that needs full-envelope attention, not just an attic top-up.
Our Main New Whiteland Services
Two jobs dominate the calls we get from New Whiteland homeowners: attic insulation that’s decades past its useful life, and crawl spaces that have turned into damp, moldy liabilities. Here’s what each one involves here.
Attic Insulation in New Whiteland
Most New Whiteland attics we open up still have the original R-19 fiberglass batts from the 1980s or 1990s, compressed, dirty, and nowhere close to the R-49 minimum Indiana now recommends. We remove what’s failing, air-seal the attic floor, and blow in new insulation to the right depth for this climate zone. For the full breakdown of what attic work looks like in New Whiteland specifically, see our Attic Insulation in New Whiteland page.

Crawl Space Encapsulation & Vapor Barrier in New Whiteland
Crawl space encapsulation in New Whiteland is the highest-ROI insulation call a homeowner here can make. Johnson County’s clay soil holds water against foundation walls, and the open or poorly lined crawl spaces under our ranch homes pull that moisture straight up into the floor framing, where it condenses on joists, rusts fasteners, and feeds mold. Because most New Whiteland crawl spaces were built with either no vapor barrier or a thin, torn sheet of 6-mil poly, encapsulation is less of an upgrade and more of a correction. We install sealed, reinforced liners, insulate the foundation walls, and condition the space so it stops acting as a moisture pump into the rest of the house. For a deeper look at the service itself, see Crawl Space Encapsulation & Vapor Barrier.
Crawl Space Vapor Barrier
Signs you need it
You smell musty air rising through the floor, see condensation on ductwork or floor joists, or notice the plastic sheeting on the crawl floor is torn and curling at the edges.
What it costs in New Whiteland
Expect to pay $1,200 to $3,500 for a standard vapor barrier job in New Whiteland depending on crawl size and access.
How we do it
We clear the floor, repair and replace the existing poly with a reinforced liner, run it up the foundation walls, and mechanically fasten it so it doesn’t shift or tear under foot traffic.
Crawl Space Encapsulation
Signs you need it
Your crawl space stays humid through every season, insulation batts are falling out of the joist bays, or you’ve already had mold remediation and want to keep it from coming back.
What it costs in New Whiteland
Full encapsulation in New Whiteland typically runs $5,000 to $15,000, including wall insulation, sealed liner, and conditioning equipment.
How we do it
We seal the vents and penetrations, line the floor and walls with a thick vapor barrier, insulate the foundation walls with rigid foam or closed-cell spray, and add a dehumidifier sized to the crawl volume.
Crawl Space Moisture Control
Signs you need it
Water pools after heavy rain, you see efflorescence on block walls, or a hygrometer in the crawl reads above 60% relative humidity through the summer.
What it costs in New Whiteland
Moisture control work in New Whiteland ranges from $800 to $3,000 depending on whether we’re adding drainage, a sump pump, or just managing humidity with air-sealing and a dehumidifier.
How we do it
We find the moisture source first, then install the right fix: interior drain tile, a sump pump, a vapor barrier, or a combination, so the space dries out and stays dry.
What Crawl Space Encapsulation & Vapor Barrier Costs in New Whiteland
| Item | Typical range in New Whiteland |
|---|---|
| Crawl space vapor barrier | $1,200 - $3,500 |
| Full encapsulation with wall insulation | $5,000 - $15,000 |
| Moisture control (drainage, sump, dehumidifier) | $800 - $3,000 |
Is crawl space encapsulation worth it in New Whiteland?
Yes, and here’s why: the clay soil under Johnson County holds moisture that migrates into open crawl spaces year-round, degrading joists, feeding mold, and raising indoor humidity that your AC then fights all summer. Sealing the crawl ends that cycle at the source rather than treating symptoms upstairs.
How long does crawl space encapsulation take in New Whiteland?
Most New Whiteland ranch homes take one to two days for full encapsulation, depending on crawl height and whether we’re adding drainage or a sump. Call (866) 751-4428 and we’ll give you a timeline based on your actual crawl.
Spray Foam Insulation in New Whiteland
Spray foam insulation in New Whiteland solves the problem that 2×4 walls and vented attics create in Climate Zone 5: not enough cavity depth for good R-value and too many air leaks. Closed-cell foam in particular gives us a way to hit high effective R-values in thin wall cavities, and it acts as its own air barrier, which matters in ranch homes where top plates and rim joists leak conditioned air all winter. We install both open-cell and closed-cell systems from Spray Foam Insulation manufacturers including Icynene and Demilec, choosing the product that fits the job rather than forcing one type everywhere.
Closed-Cell Spray Foam
Signs you need it
You have a rim joist or band board that leaks cold air in winter, you want to turn an unconditioned space into living area, or your 2×4 walls can’t hit R-20 with batts alone.
What it costs in New Whiteland
Closed-cell spray foam in New Whiteland runs $1.65 to $3.20 per board foot depending on depth and access.
How we do it
We prep the area, spray the foam to the specified depth in lifts, let it cure, and trim it flush for finishing surfaces or cavity closure.
Rim Joist Spray Foam
Signs you need it
Floors near exterior walls feel cold in January, you’ve spotted rodent entry points along the sill plate, or your heating bills spike every winter without an obvious cause.
What it costs in New Whiteland
Rim joist sealing with spray foam in New Whiteland typically costs $900 to $2,500 for the average ranch footprint.
How we do it
We seal the entire band board perimeter with closed-cell foam, blocking air, moisture, and pests in one pass.
What Spray Foam Insulation Costs in New Whiteland
| Item | Typical range in New Whiteland |
|---|---|
| Closed-cell spray foam (per board foot) | $1.65 - $3.20 |
| Rim joist spray foam (average ranch) | $900 - $2,500 |
| Open-cell spray foam (per board foot) | $0.75 - $1.85 |
Is spray foam safe in a New Whiteland home?
Yes, when installed correctly and allowed to fully cure before re-entry, which is how we run every job. We ventilate during application and confirm the foam has cured before anyone moves back into the space. No shortcuts on this, ever.
Can spray foam be installed in winter in New Whiteland?
It can, with the right substrate temperatures and product selection. Cold surface temps affect foam adhesion and yield, so we monitor conditions and schedule around stretches of single-digit weather when necessary. Call (866) 751-4428 for a straight answer on your project timing.
Blown-In Insulation in New Whiteland
Blown-in insulation in New Whiteland is the fastest, most cost-effective way to bring a 1970s-to-1990s attic up to current Indiana standards. Most of the attics we walk through in this town are sitting at R-19 or less, and blowing in a fresh layer of fiberglass or cellulose to reach R-49 or R-60 changes the comfort profile of the whole house within a day. GreenFiber cellulose and Owens Corning fiberglass are our two main choices for Blown-In Insulation, and we pick based on the existing attic setup and the homeowner’s goals for air-sealing and moisture behavior.
Blown-In Fiberglass
Signs you need it
Your attic batts are compressed, dirty, or barely covering the joist tops, and you want a clean, consistent R-value across the entire attic floor.
What it costs in New Whiteland
Blown-in fiberglass in New Whiteland runs $1.20 to $3.00 per square foot of attic floor, including prep and air-sealing of penetrations.
How we do it
We air-seal the attic floor, set depth markers for the target R-value, and blow the fiberglass to an even, full-coverage depth that doesn’t settle below the rated R-value over time.
Blown-In Cellulose
Signs you need it
You want a dense, air-slowing layer made from recycled material, or you need to fill irregular cavities and odd-shaped attic spaces better than batts ever could.
What it costs in New Whiteland
Blown-in cellulose in New Whiteland runs $1.15 to $2.75 per square foot for standard attic installation.
How we do it
We prep the attic, install baffles to protect soffit vents, and blow the cellulose to the target depth, checking density as we go so the R-value holds over the life of the house.
What Blown-In Insulation Costs in New Whiteland
| Item | Typical range in New Whiteland |
|---|---|
| Blown-in fiberglass (per sq ft) | $1.20 - $3.00 |
| Blown-in cellulose (per sq ft) | $1.15 - $2.75 |
| Blown-in top-up over existing insulation | $0.90 - $2.10 |
How long does blown-in insulation take in New Whiteland?
Most New Whiteland attics are done in half a day to a full day, including air-sealing and cleanup. The blower truck sets up outside, two techs work the attic, and you’re back to normal by evening.
Will blown-in insulation fix my high winter heating bills?
It’s usually the single biggest lever you can pull. New Whiteland homes at R-19 lose heat through the ceiling all winter; getting to R-49 or better typically cuts heating cost by 15 to 25 percent depending on the rest of the envelope. Call (866) 751-4428 and we’ll walk you through realistic numbers for your house.
Radiant Barrier Installation in New Whiteland
Radiant barrier installation in New Whiteland targets the July and August problem: attic temperatures that climb past 130°F and radiate heat down through the ceiling into living spaces. Our clay-heavy, humid summers mean the attic becomes a heat reservoir every afternoon, and a foil radiant barrier reflects most of that radiant heat before it reaches the insulation below. It’s a good fit for the low-slope roofs and vented attics common on New Whiteland ranches. We install radiant barrier as a standalone upgrade or as part of a full Radiant Barrier Installation with attic air-sealing and insulation top-up.
Attic Radiant Barrier
Signs you need it
Upstairs rooms run 8 to 12 degrees warmer than downstairs in summer, or your AC runs nonstop from mid-afternoon until after dark without hitting the setpoint.
What it costs in New Whiteland
Attic radiant barrier in New Whiteland runs $0.80 to $2.00 per square foot of attic floor, depending on roof geometry.
How we do it
We staple or fasten the foil to the underside of the roof rafters, leaving the required air gap so the reflective surface can reject radiant heat rather than conduct it.
Radiant Barrier & Ventilation
Signs you need it
Your attic has soffit and ridge vents but still cooks in summer, or you’ve added attic insulation without addressing the heat gain from the roof deck itself.
What it costs in New Whiteland
Combined radiant barrier and ventilation work in New Whiteland typically runs $1.50 to $3.50 per square foot when we’re improving baffles, sealing gaps, and adding the barrier in one pass.
How we do it
We verify the intake and exhaust ventilation balance first, then install the radiant barrier so it doesn’t block airflow paths and works with the existing venting rather than against it.
What Radiant Barrier Installation Costs in New Whiteland
| Item | Typical range in New Whiteland |
|---|---|
| Attic radiant barrier (per sq ft) | $0.80 - $2.00 |
| Radiant barrier with ventilation | $1.50 - $3.50 |
| Radiant barrier roof deck application | $1.00 - $2.40 |
Does radiant barrier help in a New Whiteland winter?
Minimally. Radiant barrier is a summer tool: it rejects downward radiant heat from the roof deck. In winter the same foil can slightly reduce upward heat loss, but the real winter payoff comes from insulation depth and air-sealing, not the barrier.
Can you install radiant barrier in an existing New Whiteland attic without removing insulation?
Usually yes. We work from the attic floor and roof framing, not through the insulation, so existing blown-in fiberglass or cellulose doesn’t need to come out first. Call (866) 751-4428 for a same-week look at your attic.
Insulation Removal & Replacement in New Whiteland
Insulation removal and replacement in New Whiteland matters because much of the original insulation in our 1970s-to-1990s housing stock is now doing more harm than good. Batts sag out of the joist bays, cellulose settles and compresses, and in too many crawl spaces we find fiberglass that’s been wet for years, holding moisture against framing and feeding mold. We remove the failed material, treat the underlying problem, and put in insulation that actually performs for this climate zone. For the full scope of what that involves, see Insulation Removal & Replacement.
Attic Insulation Removal
Signs you need it
Your attic insulation is matted down, water-stained, or full of rodent waste and nesting debris that makes the space unusable until it’s cleared.
What it costs in New Whiteland
Attic insulation removal in New Whiteland runs $0.75 to $1.75 per square foot for standard access and debris volume.
How we do it
We set up a HEPA-filtered vacuum system, bag the material, and carry it out without trailing debris through your living space.
Contaminated Insulation Removal
Signs you need it
You’ve had raccoons, squirrels, or mice in the attic, or moisture has left insulation covered in mold and musty enough that air quality inside the house is suffering.
What it costs in New Whiteland
Contaminated insulation removal in New Whiteland runs $1.25 to $2.50 per square foot because of the extra containment and disposal steps involved.
How we do it
We contain the work area, remove all contaminated material, sanitize the surfaces, and only then begin installing the replacement insulation.
What Insulation Removal & Replacement Costs in New Whiteland
| Item | Typical range in New Whiteland |
|---|---|
| Attic insulation removal (per sq ft) | $0.75 - $1.75 |
| Contaminated insulation removal (per sq ft) | $1.25 - $2.50 |
| Full removal and replacement with blown-in | $2.00 - $4.50 |
Is it cheaper to just add insulation on top instead of removing it?
Sometimes yes, and we’ll tell you when it’s fine. But if the existing insulation is wet, moldy, or infested, adding more on top seals the problem in and makes it worse. Removal costs more up front and saves you from paying twice later.
How do I know if my New Whiteland attic insulation needs full removal?
Look for water stains on the ceiling, a musty smell that gets stronger in summer, or droppings and tunnels in the insulation. Any of those means the material has failed. Call (866) 751-4428 and we’ll inspect it and give you an honest recommendation either way.
Attic Air Sealing in New Whiteland
Attic air sealing in New Whiteland closes the gaps that let conditioned air escape through the ceiling and pull outdoor air in through the lower levels of the house. Our ranch homes were framed and drywalled fast during the building booms of the 1970s through 1990s, and the top plates, can lights, plumbing penetrations, and attic hatches are almost never sealed. The result is a house that leaks heat all winter and sucks hot air in all summer. We treat Attic Air Sealing as the foundation of every attic insulation job, because insulation without sealing is like a winter coat with the zipper open.
Top Plate & Penetration Sealing
Signs you need it
You can feel cold drafts near interior walls in winter, or you see dirty fiberglass batts where dusty air has been filtering through the insulation for years.
What it costs in New Whiteland
Top plate and penetration sealing in New Whiteland runs $750 to $2,200 for the typical ranch attic, depending on the number of penetrations.
How we do it
We foam or caulk every top plate seam, wire penetration, plumbing vent, and chase opening in the attic, then verify the work with a blower door test when requested.
Attic Hatch Sealing
Signs you need it
The pull-down stair or hatch in your hallway is warm in summer and cold in winter, and you can see daylight or feel air moving around the edges when it’s closed.
What it costs in New Whiteland
Attic hatch sealing and insulation in New Whiteland runs $150 to $450, including weatherstripping and a rigid insulated cover.
How we do it
We build or install an insulated box over the hatch, weatherstrip the perimeter, and add a gasket so the hatch seals like an exterior door.
What Attic Air Sealing Costs in New Whiteland
| Item | Typical range in New Whiteland |
|---|---|
| Top plate and penetration sealing | $750 - $2,200 |
| Can light and duct boot sealing | $350 - $1,200 |
| Attic hatch sealing | $150 - $450 |
Does attic air sealing make a difference in a New Whiteland summer?
Yes. Sealing the attic floor stops hot, humid outdoor air from being pulled into the house through the ceiling leaks, which means the AC isn’t fighting outside air all afternoon. Most homeowners notice the upstairs feels less muggy within days of the work.
Can you seal my attic without removing the existing insulation?
In most New Whiteland homes we can move existing batts or blown-in insulation aside, seal the penetrations, and put it back or top it up. Full removal is only necessary when the insulation is contaminated. Call (866) 751-4428 for a free attic inspection.
Wall Insulation in New Whiteland
Wall insulation in New Whiteland works around a structural reality: most of our ranch and split-level homes are framed with 2×4 exterior walls, which leaves only three and a half inches of cavity depth. That’s enough for R-13 batts at best, and often the original batts have settled or were never air-sealed, leaving wall cavities that leak air and provide minimal thermal resistance. We use injection foam and drill-and-fill techniques to get real R-value into those thin walls without tearing out drywall. For more on the methods, see Wall Insulation.
Injection Foam Wall Insulation
Signs you need it
Exterior walls feel cold to the touch in winter, rooms along the perimeter of the house are always colder than the center, or you’ve found gaps in the existing batt insulation during a remodel.
What it costs in New Whiteland
Injection foam wall insulation in New Whiteland runs $2.00 to $4.50 per square foot of wall area for existing homes.
How we do it
We drill small access holes through the exterior or interior finish, inject the foam to fill the cavity completely, and patch the holes to match the surrounding surface.
Drill & Fill Wall Insulation
Signs you need it
You have uninsulated or partially insulated wall cavities in an older New Whiteland home, or you’ve had an energy audit that identified empty wall bays as a major loss point.
What it costs in New Whiteland
Drill-and-fill dense-pack insulation in New Whiteland runs $1.80 to $3.75 per square foot of wall area.
How we do it
We drill reachable access holes, dense-pack cellulose or fiberglass into each bay at the right density to prevent settling, and patch cleanly.
What Wall Insulation Costs in New Whiteland
| Item | Typical range in New Whiteland |
|---|---|
| Injection foam wall insulation (per sq ft) | $2.00 - $4.50 |
| Drill-and-fill dense-pack (per sq ft) | $1.80 - $3.75 |
| Interior wall soundproofing (per sq ft) | $1.50 - $3.20 |
Can you insulate my walls without tearing out the drywall?
Yes, that’s exactly what injection foam and drill-and-fill are for. We access the cavities through small holes, fill them completely, and patch the holes so you’d never know we were there. It’s the standard approach for New Whiteland’s existing homes.
Why are my exterior walls still cold even though I have batts in them?
Because batt insulation in 2×4 cavities rarely fills the space completely, and air moves through the gaps around it. The batts lose most of their R-value when cold air can bypass them. Filling those cavities with injection foam stops both the conduction and the air movement. Call (866) 751-4428 for a wall assessment.
Attic Cleaning & Rodent Proofing in New Whiteland
Attic cleaning and rodent proofing in New Whiteland is a two-part job: remove what the animals left behind, then close the entries so they can’t come back. Our ranch homes have wide soffit overhangs and gable vents that squirrels and mice use as doorways, and once they’re in, they build nests in the insulation and chew wire jackets. We remove the contaminated material, sanitize the space, and seal every entry point from the roofline to the foundation. For the scope of that work, see Attic Cleaning & Rodent Proofing.
Rodent Proofing & Exclusion
Signs you need it
You hear scratching in the attic at dawn or dusk, see droppings around the hatch or soffits, or find shingles and fascia boards chewed through.
What it costs in New Whiteland
Rodent proofing and exclusion in New Whiteland runs $500 to $2,500 depending on how many entry points we find along the roofline and gables.
How we do it
We identify every active entry point, seal them with steel mesh, hardware cloth, and sealant rated for exterior exposure, and confirm the animals are out before we close the final opening.
Attic Sanitizing & Decontamination
Signs you need it
The attic smells like urine or nesting material, insulation is matted with droppings, or you’ve had rodents and want the space safe for storage or future work.
What it costs in New Whiteland
Attic sanitizing and decontamination in New Whiteland runs $1,000 to $3,500 including insulation removal, surface treatment, and odor control.
How we do it
We remove the contaminated insulation, HEPA-vacuum all surfaces, apply a hospital-grade disinfectant and odor neutralizer, and leave the space clean enough to store belongings in.
What Attic Cleaning & Rodent Proofing Costs in New Whiteland
| Item | Typical range in New Whiteland |
|---|---|
| Rodent proofing and exclusion | $500 - $2,500 |
| Attic sanitizing and decontamination | $1,000 - $3,500 |
| Full cleanout with insulation replacement | $3,000 - $7,500 |
Will sealing the attic trap animals inside?
No, and this is the first thing we verify on every exclusion job. We inspect for active nests, confirm the animals are exiting to forage, and only then close the final opening. Sealing an active nest in is something we won’t do.
How fast can you respond to a rodent problem in New Whiteland?
Usually same-day or next-day. Squirrels and mice don’t stop chewing because it’s inconvenient, so we treat active infestations with urgency. Call (866) 751-4428 and a live person answers, day or night.
Home Energy Audit in New Whiteland
A home energy audit in New Whiteland gives you the numbers behind the guesswork. Our 1970s-to-1990s housing stock leaks in predictable places: attic penetrations, rim joists, duct seams, and unsealed wall cavities. A blower door and thermal imaging show exactly how much air is moving and where, so you can spend money on the fix that actually matters instead of the one that feels right. We run the audit first, then scope the work from the data. Full details on Home Energy Audit are on our service page.
Blower Door Test
Signs you need it
Your heating and cooling bills have climbed year over year, or you’ve done piecemeal upgrades and want to know what’s actually left to fix.
What it costs in New Whiteland
A blower door test as part of a full home energy audit in New Whiteland runs $300 to $700, and it’s often folded into the audit price.
How we do it
We mount the blower door in an exterior doorway, depressurize the house, and measure total air leakage in cubic feet per minute while walking the home with a thermal camera.
Thermal Imaging Inspection
Signs you need it
You have cold spots on walls or ceilings in winter, hot rooms in summer, or you suspect missing insulation in specific areas but can’t confirm without opening walls.
What it costs in New Whiteland
A thermal imaging inspection in New Whiteland runs $200 to $500 as a standalone or $0 to $100 when added to a full audit.
How we do it
We scan every exterior wall, ceiling, floor, and rim joist with an infrared camera, documenting temperature differences that point to missing insulation, air leaks, or moisture.
What Home Energy Audit Costs in New Whiteland
| Item | Typical range in New Whiteland |
|---|---|
| Full home energy audit with blower door | $300 - $700 |
| Thermal imaging inspection (standalone) | $200 - $500 |
| Duct leakage test | $150 - $400 |
Is a home energy audit worth it before insulating in New Whiteland?
Yes, and here’s the honest reason: most New Whiteland homes need both sealing and insulation, and the audit tells you which one to do first. Spending $500 on the audit routinely saves several times that by avoiding the wrong order of work.
Do you do energy audits in winter in New Whiteland?
We do, and winter is actually one of the best times for thermal imaging because the temperature difference between inside and outside makes air leaks and missing insulation show up clearly on the camera. Call (866) 751-4428 to schedule one.

FAQs About Insulation in New Whiteland, IN
How quickly can you schedule insulation work in New Whiteland?
We typically schedule estimates within a few days, and most attic or crawl space jobs are completed in a single day. Homes needing both wall and attic work may take a bit longer to plan around access and drying time.
Do I need a permit for insulation work?
Most insulation work, including attic top-ups, air sealing, and wall injection, does not require a separate permit. Many homes here were built to older code minimums of roughly R-11 walls and R-19 attics, well under today’s Climate Zone 5 targets, so we check existing levels first.
How does your written estimate work?
We inspect the attic, crawl space, or walls in person and provide a written estimate with the full scope and price before any work begins. That price stays fixed unless you request additional work once we’re on site.
Do you serve areas near New Whiteland?
Yes, we also cover the surrounding communities around New Whiteland, so homes just outside the city line can typically get the same estimate, scheduling, and installation process we use for jobs inside the city, without any difference in how we price or schedule the work.
What happens to my old insulation?
We remove and dispose of old, compressed, or contaminated insulation before installing anything new, whether that’s degraded batts, damaged blown-in material, or vermiculite that needs special handling. Removal is priced separately from new insulation so there are no surprises once we start.

What New Whiteland Customers Say
"Walt came out himself, stuck his head in the attic, and told me I had about four inches where I needed fourteen. No sales pitch, just the number and what it would cost to fix it. Crew was here two days later."
- Carl Meadows"We had the walls of our old house filled with foam through small holes from the outside. Patched and painted the same afternoon. The bedrooms hold heat now and the furnace runs a lot less."
- Linda Baumgartner"Good honest work on the attic. The price was a little higher than one online quote, but Walt is the one who actually showed up and the one whose name is on the truck, and that was worth it to us."
- Helen Tran
