About Us

Dedication, Training and Combined Experience

team photo 2019

Total Home Performance was founded in 2009 by close friends living on Eastern Shore driven by a passion for the environment and helping local homeowners.

More than a decade later, the company has grown to more than 60 employees, but our passions and our core values are the same: local home performance experts dedicated to helping friends and neighbors throughout the Eastern Shore in Maryland and Delaware make their homes healthier, safer, and more comfortable while reducing energy consumption.

What Sets Total Home Performance Apart

  • Home performance experts driven by a passion for our industry

  • A local business that treats customers like neighbors (and they often are!)

  • A Building Performance Institute-certified and trained workforce

  • A positive working environment 

Total Home Performance isn’t just an insulation contractor—we’re a true whole house home performance company who understands how a house and the systems within it work. We work to address the root cause of problems in your home, and we don’t invoice a job until we’re as happy with the work done as you are.

Digging around in a crawlspace under a house isn’t always the most glamorous work, but our team is a close-knit group that always brings smiles to a job site. And while we’ve earned our reputation as the best on the Eastern Shore when it comes to our services, we also consider ourselves lifelong learners always looking to improve our work so we can continue improving our neighboring homes.

A Local Company Serving All of Our Eastern Shore Neighbors

When Total Home Performance first started, we were creating jobs in an industry that didn’t previously exist on the Eastern Shore. Our mission of giving back to the community continues today, from our workforce to the vast network of trusted trade partners we have in electric, plumbing, HVAC, construction, and more.

Our company has made a broad economic impact in our community, and we’re as proud of our involvement in free weatherization services for lower-income households in Maryland and Delaware as we are of our private sector work.

In fact, Total Home Performance has completed the most jobs and saved the most kilowatt-hours every single year since 2011 in the Delmarva Power territory.

Our Team—Who We Are

We wouldn’t be the company it is today without our employees, many of which have been with the company since its earliest days. Total Home Performance isn’t just a logo on the side of a truck—we’re the neighbors you see grabbing a coffee in the morning or shopping in the supermarket (maybe with a little less dirt on our clothes).
