Amherst Insulation & Firestop

Amherst Insulation & Firestop is a commercial and industrial insulation and firestop contractor based in Manchester, New Hampshire, working for building owners, general contractors and inspectors on mechanical-system insulation and passive fire protection code compliance rather than residential jobs. Its work spans healthcare, government, manufacturing, education and other commercial facilities across a five-state footprint — Connecticut, Maine, Massachusetts, New Hampshire and New York — and Procore Construction Network's directory tracks 184 projects under the company's name. The company says it has operated since 1997 under founder and president George Bourbeau, a Navy veteran, putting nearly three decades behind its commercial insulation and firestopping work by its own account. There isn't much third-party record to weigh beyond that. The one review on file, from June 2026, is a 1-star complaint that the company's vehicles were parked in handicap spaces — a conduct issue rather than a comment on the firestopping or insulation work itself, but it's the only outside account available and worth asking about. Anyone bringing them onto a commercial project for mechanical insulation or fire-stopping compliance should ask for current references directly, since there's no deep public review trail here to check the work against.
