"Everything went extremely well and we are highly satisfied with the results!! On initial visit, they discussed with us various options, gave very helpful advice on any of our concerns, and and made a thorough inspection of the basement to plan detail work and address problem areas. They left the place clean and with a nice, thick layer of open-cell insulation. We are very impressed with their work! Would recommend anytime and hire again."

"They did an excellent job. They cleaned up after themselves really well. They explained everything in a way that we could understand. If we had any questions they were willing to answer and be really helpful. There sales person really knew his stuff. They painted the metal roof and the place where we went to pick the colors was really nice. They were really quiet when they were doing the work. They screw in the nails instead of nailing them. Also, they put a insulate liner under the metal roof to make the attic cooler. This helps us save money in utilities, and we have actually seen a difference in the bill."

Drywall Insulation questions, answered by experts

Plastering and skimming are two different techniques for finishing walls. Plastering involves applying a thick layer of a plaster mixture—typically containing gypsum, lime, cement, sand, and water—to create a new surface. This process often requires multiple coats and is used for repairing significant damage or creating decorative textures. Skimming, on the other hand, is a technique that involves applying a thin layer of drywall compound or joint compound over an existing surface to smooth it out, covering minor imperfections, small cracks, or uneven textures for a polished look. Plastering is generally more costly and labor-intensive than skimming. Although some people use the terms interchangeably, they refer to different processes and materials.

Drywall insulation costs around $1,800, on average, but prices can range from $500 to $4,500, depending on a few different factors. The following things are important considerations to make when pricing out your insulation project:

  • Square footage of insulation

  • Type of insulation 

  • Climate in your area and the insulation R-value required

  • Whether or not your walls are already finished

  • Accessibility of the area 

  • Whether or not you need old insulation removed first

Beadboard is a decorative element and lacks the structural integrity of drywall. It cannot hold much weight and is not meant to be used as an insulator or moisture barrier, like drywall is. In almost all cases, beadboard is placed over an existing wall surface which, in modern days, is usually drywall, but decades ago could have been wood paneling.

Certain drywall textures, like sand and sometimes popcorn, can be smoothed by applying skim coats, sanding the walls, or chipping away the texture. However, it’s worth considering removing the texture and starting with a blank canvas. Smoothing textured walls requires a lot of sandpaper and elbow grease and can take longer than just outright removing the texture.

If your home’s foundation shifts slightly over time, any seams in the drywall represent the weakest point in the wall, leading to cracks. If your home has significant changes in temperature and humidity, this can cause the drywall to swell and contract slightly, causing a crack at the weak point of the seam. If your drywall installer did a poor job securing the panels to the wall studs, this could cause a weak layout and cracks in the seams.
