Koala Insulation of Fort Bend

Koala Insulation of Fort Bend handles insulation work from its base in Richmond, Texas. Jimmy manages the estimates and the crews for services that include blown in attic insulation, solar attic fan installation, air sealing around light fixtures, insulation removal and replacement, and attic hatch work. The company also takes on crawl space encapsulation and commercial insulation projects when needed in the Fort Bend area.

Homeowners call for extra blown in material to bring attic depths up to thirteen inches or more, full removal of old insulation followed by new installation throughout, and solar fan additions to improve airflow. Several noted lower power use after complete replacements, better air conditioning performance during summer heat, and fixes for small ceiling damage that occurred during one job. Jimmy evaluated needs on site before quoting, then returned with a crew to finish the work without excess material or leftover debris.

The crews arrive at the scheduled time for both quotes and installs, often completing attic jobs in under two hours while vacuuming floors and clearing any mess before leaving. Pricing lands below bids from other local companies, with no added charges beyond the estimate, and phone calls get returned promptly. Service covers Fort Bend locations including Sugar Land, with same-day or next-week scheduling available depending on the scope.

“They failed to show up three (3 !) times. I understand that unforeseen issues can happen, but three failed appointments, poor communication, and the amount of time wasted on my end are simply unacceptable. If you value your time and need a contractor who can honor their commitments, you may want to consider other options.”

“Had Jimmy come out and quote me for adding an additional 4" of Insulation throughout and also a Solar Fan. Price was reasonable so Jimmy and colleague came out for the install a week later. They did a great job on both the fan and the insulation. Overall, a very professional service from start to finish. Very pleased.”

“Jimmy and his team at Koala Insulation came out and did an amazing job of air sealing the light fixtures and topped off our existing blown-in fiberglass insulation to ensure 13" or more everywhere. Very friendly and answered all my questions.”

“Jimmy w/Koala was so very pleasant to deal with from first meeting to discuss adding additional insulation to the completion of the job. He and his employee came in and did a great job, installing the insulation and the attic hatch master at the attic stairwell very efficiently, without any issues. They cleaned up any mess they might have made in the process. Very considerate, professional and we would highly recommend Koala.”

“Jimmy Armentrout / Koala Insulation recently finished a second job for us, and my wife and I highly recommend them for their excellent service, product and pricing. We had used Koala at our former home about five years ago for a total replacement of our insulation, and they did such a great job (total removal of old insulation and installation of brand new insulation throughout the attic) that our power usage went down 15% month-over-month). When we purchased our new home in June, the inspector noted that the thickness of the insulation was insufficient in places, so we called Koala out once again. Jimmy came out and did a thorough evaluation to determine what we needed (no more, no less). Once that was done, Koala came out promptly and once again, they provided excellent and professional service at a reasonable price. Thank you, Jimmy & Koala.”

“Koala does outstanding work! Jimmy scheduled a visit to look at the job and estimate and then made arrangements to get it done quickly. They did an outstanding job of putting some insulation in our attic. They went above and beyond my expectations. This was a high-quality job! Very happy, and would do it again.”

“Jimmy with Koala Insulation Fort Bend was great to work with. He answered/returned phone calls, was polite and calm. I appreciate all these qualities in the person I am wanting to buy services from as I’ve experienced all too often the opposite. He came out to my home to better be able to provide me with an accurate quote. No charge. The process to install the insulation was clean and not noisy. Jimmy and his assistant cleaned up and were gone in about an hour and forty five minutes. The cost was reasonable and half of what two other companies had quoted me for an older home of about 3,300 sq feet. I recommend using Jimmy and if needed, will call him for future work.”

“Just had my attic reinsulated. I've already seen a change in the house! I have been able to raise the temp up. I was needing a blanket! Jimmy was great about getting in touch and getting started with the job. We had a small problem with a foot coming through the ceiling. He got right on getting someone out to fix it! The company that was sent out did a super job patching the hole. I have already shared Koala info with my neighbors and friends. I'm sure he will see some new business from my results! Thanks for your service!”

“Great price on blown in insulation and solar attic fan. Jimmy is extremely professional. One insight is to plan to have a wet/dry vacuum ready post-job to clean up blown-in from areas such as the attic ladders. Really just a good excuse, regardless, to clean the attic you probably haven't vacuumed in years. Takes little time with the right tool for the job. 10/10 and cheaper than the competition for good quality materials.”

“Jimmy and his guys were great to deal with. We had them install a solar attic fan. They were quick to give us a quote and get us on the schedule. We love knowing that there are still honest and hardworking people out there. Highly recommend!”

“Koala installed a couple of solar attic fans for us and did an excellent job. Very pleased with the work, and Jimmy was great to work with during every step of the process. Highly recommend.”

“Jimmy was very professional and pleasant to talk with. He explained the entire process and made me feel comfortable about the work that was performed. He completed 3 solar fans in about 2.5 hours. Job well done and I highly recommend Koala Insulation!”

“Koala Insulation came out to blow additional insulation into our garage. They gave us a great price and the work was done very efficiently. They showed up the first time we were scheduled (on time of course) and I had a conflict so they, without any complaint, rescheduled the appointment. Showed up the second time and did an awesome job. We couldn't be more pleased and can feel the difference in how well our ac is working in triple digit heat! I would recommend to everyone!”

“Koala Insulation of Fort Bend did a phenomenal job! Every aspect of communication was professional and Jimmy answered all my questions and waited VERY patiently as I mulled my choices. The work was done very well and very efficiently. If you're in the need for some additional insulation or a complete removal and replacement like me ... don't hesitate ... Jimmy and Koala Insulation of fort Bend will do a GREAT job!”

“Jimmy provided a quote after coming over inspecting the attic and garage area. The crew was very respectful of the home when laying out the tubing for installation. The thickness of insulation was accurate according to requirements. They did a great job cleaning afterwards. I would definitely recommend Koala Insulation of Fort Bend for any insulation needs.”

“Great team, very up front and honest and never felt like I was paying more than I should. Jimmy offered several quotes for my home that best fit my needs, showed up on time and got done in a timely manner. Would 100% recommend this crew again!”

“Jimmy did a great job. In spite of some equipment difficulties and health challenges, he got the crew out to our place, got the work done and everything cleaned up as expected. Great to work with, reasonable pricing and good customer service.”

“I heartily endorse Koala of Fort Bend. After reviewing bids from 5 vendors I selected Koala as my best value. I am glad I did. Jimmy and his team were professional, on time, provided a top product and offered a military discount. The final price was exactly as the estimate, no surprises or up sell. Basically, I doubled the amount of insulation in my one story house to an R49 standard. The job started promptly at 9 and the were finished by noon with no mess to clean up after. Good job guys.”

“Koala Insulation provided excellent service! They were very timely, arriving exactly when promised, and their team was polite and professional throughout the entire process. I highly recommend them for anyone looking for quality insulation work.”

“I had additional blow in insulation added in my attic and a much needed fan installed via the roof in the attic. Koala Insulation did an outstanding job. They are professional, friendly and courteous. Kept me informed about the process and vacuumed the floor when they finished.”
