Kevin B's 5-Star Review
I had a great experience with Sunlight Contractors for a spray foam insulation job in my metal garage. From start to finish, the process was smooth and professional.
Ira, the owner, was straightforward, knowledgeable, and easy to work with. He communicated with me throughout the entire process and answered all questions I could think of. Clayton, the estimator, took the time to explain everything clearly, answered all my questions, and made sure the quote and scope were accurate with no surprises.
On install day, Corey and his crew did an excellent job. They were on time, respectful of the space, and clearly knew what they were doing. The spray foam application was clean, consistent, and well done, and they left the site neat when they finished.
The building already feels noticeably better insulated, and I�m very happy with the results. I�d definitely recommend Sunlight Contractors to anyone looking for quality spray foam work and a professional, reliable team.

Our team at Sunlight Contractors completely restored this 100-year-old Uptown New Orleans home from the ground up - eliminating moisture problems, rebuilding the structure, and remodeling the entire first floor into a healthy, efficient, and beautiful living space.
We began by tunneling under the home because it was only 3"-4" off the ground to perform a complete moisture remediation of the subfloor, sanitizing with Mold Stat, Jo-Max, and RMR, then treating every beam and joist with Bora-Care with blue tracer dye. After drying the structure to under 10% moisture, we encapsulated the subfloor with 3" of Gaco Western closed-cell spray foam, forming a permanent v***r and air barrier.
Once stabilized, we remodeled the entire first floor, rebuilding 2�10 joists, installing new �? subfloors, and laying over 1,000 sq. ft. of hardwood flooring. The kitchen, bathrooms, and living areas were fully upgraded with new cabinetry, tile, paint, and trim - all while the home was disinfected and air-purified using HEPA scrubbers and negative-pressure systems.
Outside, we replaced all siding and insulation with 4? Rockwool, a new weather barrier, and Hardie Board siding finished in Sherwin-Williams premium paint. We also rebuilt nineteen windows, installed three wall-mounted dehumidifiers, added a ventilation fan under the house, and finished with a brand-new custom privacy fence.
From the crawlspace to the crown molding, this project reflects the Gold-Star Building Science Standard - moisture control, air sealing, and craftsmanship built to last for decades.

The customers review on Sunlight Contractors
I hired Sunlight Contractors to resolve serious moisture and structural issues in my 100-year-old New Orleans home, and their team went above and beyond! They were so quick to address an extreme mold issue underneath the house that they discovered had also penetrated into the walls requiring a complete renovation of the downstairs. I was told by others - including the home inspector - that the crawl space was too small to get into, but Sunlight Contractors actually tunneled under the house. They disinfected and treated every inch of wood with EPA-approved solutions, thoroughly dried the subfloor, and sealed it with Bora-Care and closed-cell spray foam. How do I know they treated every inch? They use a blue dye to ensure nothing is missed!
They did not stop there. When severe hidden rot was discovered, they immediately updated me with a clear plan. They replaced rotted plywood and joists, pre-treated all new wood for mold and termites, and rebuilt the floor system to code.
In addition, Sunlight handled extensive plumbing, electrical, siding, painting, and Sheetrock work - all done with the same professionalism, integrity and attention to detail. Every in-house trade was coordinated seamlessly with no stress, and I could not be more pleased with the results!
What impressed me most was their commitment to long-term solutions and transparency. They documented every step, provided daily updates including photos and videos, and never cut corners as the original builders of the home obviously did. I highly recommend Sunlight Contractors to anyone who wants their home protected and restored the right way! They truly care about their customers and their work.

Great company! Ira and his employees are the best! They did a job for me after my home was flooded by Hurricane Francine.
“I had amazing experience with this company. The customer service was outstanding, and the owner oversaw the process every step of the way. They may have saved my home and health due to the high humidity/mold in my home. Sunlight Contractors LLC is the BEST!!

Daniel Lacoste Review, St. Gabriel, 70776
Last year I had a bad experience with a spray foam contractor and that's a nice way to put it. My building contractor referred me to Sunlight and from the first phone conversation to completion of the job, I have been thoroughly pleased with Ira and his crew! They were extremely professional , neat, thorough, and communicated what, why, and how the job would be done...and they did it as stated. There aren't enough superlatives to describe how exceptional this company was. If you need spray foam, look no further, they are the real deal.

Review of Annie C. of New Orleans, 70125
Ira and his team have been fantastic to work with! After Clayton came out and gave me a thorough estimate, taking the time to explain the scope of work and why things needed to be done, Ira got to work right away! I’ve been very impressed with the whole team— and thrilled to learn they do *everything* so instead of having to search for contractors to finish out my space they’re doing it all with a speed and competency that’s been very hard to find. Ira has made sure that I understand what’s going on and has been really wonderful to work with. We’re still mid-process and so far I’m extremely pleased! The spray foam job looks great and I’m excited to finally be able to keep my house cool in the summer!

Craigs Summary of Renovation Purpose:
The comprehensive renovation plan is designed to create a safe, mold-free, energy-efficient home by addressing key issues of mold removal, humidity control, air sealing, and whole-home insulation. The process we used to renovate craig’s home is as follows:
1. Mold Removal: Treating all surfaces in the attic, walls, ceilings, and floors with EPA-certified Mold Stat Plus to eliminate mold and microbial growth. This includes wiping down furniture and appliances to ensure a safe and healthy living environment.
2. Humidity Control: Installing two Santa Fe 120-pint/day whole-house dehumidifiers to manage indoor humidity effectively. These systems ensure long-term moisture control while providing fresh air ventilation.
3. Air Sealing: Applying 3 inches of closed-cell spray foam in the attic and cathedral ceilings to seal air leaks, prevent moisture infiltration, and improve thermal performance. A v***r barrier and indirect heating system are used to dry the subfloor below 10% moisture before insulating.
4. Insulation: Insulating the attic and subfloor with closed-cell spray foam to enhance energy efficiency, reduce heating and cooling costs, and improve comfort.
5. Interior Finishing: Replacing and finishing sheetrock, painting walls and ceilings, and updating trim to restore the home’s appearance while ensuring an airtight and clean interior.
This renovation process eliminates mold, resolves humidity issues, seals the building envelope, and insulates the entire home, creating a healthier, more comfortable, and energy-efficient living space.

PLEASE READ REVIEW FROM ONE OF OUR CUSTOMERS.
I can’t remember ever doing a review before, but I felt that my experience warranted this review.
I am building a woodworking shop, and looking forward to many blissful hours of building things in my upcoming retirement. It only took a few days of summer, to realize that the metal building I had constructed needed to be insulated.
Through much research, I discovered that spray foam was the best for my shop. I discovered that there are many people living nightmares because of improperly applied spray foam. I read reviews and made calls to talk with installers directly (something I highly recommend). After speaking with Mr. Ira Bosh with Sunlight Contractors, I made my decision. Having done months of research, I knew that I could get the job done a little cheaper. But I believe when you buy cheap, you get cheap and I didn’t want to live one of those nightmares I saw online.
I contracted with Sunlight Contractors to do the job and scheduled the installation date. The installers arrived on time as scheduled and got started. The job went much quicker that I expected, having to spray 3 inches over 1845 square foot of walls/ceiling. When done, the crew cleaned the area, and reviewed the work with me. I got the sense that they were proud of their work and wanted my honest opinion. To me, this is sign of a company that cares about the job they do.

Read Tony A.'s 5 STAR Review Below.
We started the project by repairing and rebuilding a few of Tony's pier and beams under his home for added structural integrity. A couple of Tony's beams were damaged and needed to be replaced.
We also removed his old, existing, dirty batt insulation from his attic floor. We installed open-cell spray foam on the attic roof sheathing to create a monolithic seal, with no breaks throughout the entire attic. For added comfort, air quality, and humidity control we installed a brand new 120-pint a-day SantaFe dehumidification system in the attic.

"Amazing! Sunlight Contractors provided superb, invaluable customer service and professional expertise; thinking, speaking, listening, working, and arriving at decisions with the owner of Sunlight Contractors, Ira Bosh, was a fantastic experience and radically improved my family's newly purchased home in New Orleans.

When I first toured the inside of the home, while shopping for a home in New Orleans, I was struck by its open floor plan, simple beauty, and calm nature--the home truly has a great vibe. Unfortunately, ambient temperatures in the home's two attics were hot. Consequently, the attics were too hot to store items within, especially wood furniture, electronics, or other valuable commodities. I also noticed a potential humidity problem. Equally important, I knew the raised home's concrete pedestal foundation would require reinforcement, in order for me to safely position two heavy wine cellars and a Precor Elliptical machine on the home's elevated wooden floors. Fortunately, the home's builder insightfully recommended that I contact Ira; I am so, so very glad that I accepted this sage recommendation and, thereafter, contacted Ira via Sunlight Contractors' Internet website.

Ira met with me within 24-hours and introduced me to his primary project foreman. Within minutes, I knew that I could trust Ira, his foreman, and their technicians. That day, Ira and I agreed to a price, we shook hands, and initiated an excellent trust-based business relationship. The fact that we also became genuine friends over the ensuing week-plus is an added benefit of working with an ethical, highly capable professional like Ira!

Bottom Line. Ira Bosh, his talented foreman, and their highly capable technicians fulfilled all of their tasks in a truly exemplary manner. While doing so, they expertly completed the following actions: installed foam insulation, plywood flooring, and dehumidifier/air-purification systems in both attics; artfully installed wall-mounted control devices on the home's first and second floors; and reinforced the first floor with a 6"x6"x12' beam and three steel-augmented concrete pillars. They also conducted several additional actions without charging my family and me. These gratis actions included, but are not limited to: fixing several doors that did not shut smoothly; and installing a thermal dog door for my family's Australian Shepherd, so he could enter/exit our home without disrupting its newly established and incredibly stable, internal temperature and humidity levels.

My wonderful wife, loving dog, and I could not have asked nor expected anything more from Ira Bosh and his team! Thanks Ira; thanks a whole, whole lot for taking such great care of my family and me!"
