"My experience with eco three was the easiest decision I had to make when getting estimates for attic insulation. David was the best and made the installation seamless. The difference in my humidity level in the house has significantly dropped making the house feel much cooler. I know over time the insulation will pay for itself and I highly recommend echothree.."

"The process went quickly and smoothly. Jonathan Handey came to our house to look over our current issues with our insulation, attic, and overall efficiency of our home built in 1948. He recommended that we seal all the top plates in the attic, insulate and air seal our duct leaks, blow new loosefill insulation over our entire attic to upgrade our insulation, air seal the open ares around our floors, windows, and doors, and install weather stripping on all of our doors.
The work took a total of two days and we barely noticed the workers in our home despite the fact that I work from home. They were hard at work in our basement and attic for 8-10 hours each day and got everything completed in a quick and thorough manner. Once they were completed they tested out the home to see if there was any energy loss coming through the top plates, ducts, etc. and the tests showed that my home's performance had been greatly improved. 
Jonathan and his crew were incredibly professional and kind at the same time. They provided an itemized list with costs of each improvement they were to make in the initial bid process of the job and they communicated clearly and effectively throughout the process as to the timeframe and what we were to expect. 
I would work with them again.

Drywall Insulation questions, answered by experts

For maximum stability, install grab bars on wall studs, as this will adequately support the weight. However, if you don't have access to studs, you can get by with wall anchors. If opting for the latter, choose specialty hollow wall anchors. 

The two most common drywall thicknesses for ceilings are 1/2-inch and 5/8-inch. For most standard residential applications, 1/2-inch drywall is sufficient and widely used. It provides adequate support and is lighter and easier to handle during installation compared to thicker sheets. However, 5/8-inch drywall is often used for specific cases where additional benefits are needed. It is heavier but provides superior sound dampening and fire resistance. You should consider using 5/8-inch drywall for ceilings in commercial buildings, between a garage and a living space, or above a finished basement to meet building codes or for enhanced soundproofing.

The cost to texture drywall depends on whether you want to do the work yourself or hire a professional. The cost of the drywall mud is far lower than labor costs for applying it. The labor cost to spray drywall compound onto a wall is between $0.80 and $1.50 per square foot, while you’ll pay between $1.50 and $2 per square foot for the labor to apply the texture by hand.

Furring strips, thin strips of wood or metal, are not always required for ceiling drywall installation. If the ceiling surface is even and in good condition, drywall can be directly attached to the ceiling joists using screws. However, furring strips become essential when dealing with irregular surfaces or when additional insulation or soundproofing is needed. They create a level substrate for attaching the drywall. Ultimately, the decision to use furring strips depends on the condition of the existing ceiling and the specific requirements of the project.

You can paint over plaster, but repair any damage to the plaster first, or the paint will crack and bubble. You should also prepare the surface of the plaster to accept paint, which gives your paint job the best chance of looking good and lasting a long time. Before applying the color you want, apply a coat or two of primer. Additionally, use latex paint, and choose a latex paint with a satin finish for areas with dampness, like bathrooms.
