Home Performance Contractors: The Missing Link

Tradespeople in the HVAC, insulation, or roofing industries are very knowledgeable in installing and repairing specific products; however, they may be less skilled in understanding how their products interact with other building components. reNew Home specializes in identifying and understanding how different systems and assemblies work together.

We want to understand your home
and how it’s being used.

We collect data on your home's current systems, and most importantly, we get to know YOU - the home's occupants. We tailor solutions to the people who live in the home because schedules, routines, and even allergies can shift the balance of favor from one approach to another. If you’re considering home improvements, or have a problem that never seems to get solved, make us your next call!

Testimonials

Testimonials

“We are very comfortable in the downstairs for the first time ever, and not running the humidifier (or dehumidifiers). It’s a perfect 50-55% humidity for my instruments. It is also silent which is unbelievable. We are very happy with the work Renew Home has done for us. One detail that we especially like is that our bedroom door is a 'real' (solid wood) door and just seems proper to close when we go to bed.”

David, Blowing Rock, NC
Comprehensive Home Performance Remodel Project

“Am very happy with the work John did at my house. Showed up when he said he would be there, very good communication about the work with pictures. Would use this company again.”

Brenda, Lenoir, NC
Insulation/air sealing/HVAC retrofit

“John is dedicated to finding out the answers to problems in buildings, whether it has to do with lowering energy bills, snooping out indoor air quality problems, or dealing with moisture-related issues.  I've worked with him on many projects, and he's honest, straightforward, and hard working. I would hire him for virtually any project that involves making your home more efficient, healthier, and more comfortable.”

Jeff, PE, Former Appalachian State University Department Chair, Boone, NC
