"Working with Vortex was a great experience. The crew was totally professional and very experienced and did an excellent job spraying closed cell insulation in the new addition to our house. When they were done the job site was left totally spotless. Their prices are very reasonable/competitive. We are very pleased with the work they did and how easy it was to work with them. We will certainly use them again in the future."

"This company came in a updated our 40-year old home insulation with new R-38 batting. We were impressed how much attention to detail the company has for removing old insulation, clean-up, disinfection, and installing new insulation. They also replaced a damaged dryer vent in the crawlspace. Nico and Jeremy were a great combo to work with from quote through install. I plan on calling them back in spring for another project."

"I was referred to this company from a friend that used them in the past. I needed to remove part of drywall and replace the insulation inside due to a leak from one of the pipes. At first I called the office and told them what the problem was. The office sent Juan to my house to check and see the job. Juan came over the following day and looked the problem. He was able to give me a quote on the spot. 
The price seem to be fair so I hired them for that job. Juan than scheduled me for 2 days later and he told me that it will take 1 day to complete and another day to paint. 
I was happy with the fact that he came over when he said he will and he did complete the job the same day. The paint work was completed the following day and I?m happy with the results.

"Every person that came into our home from Tri-County was very professional and respectful.  They covered everything with plastic before removing the insulation and again when blowing it back in.  They cleaned up and disposed of the plastic, vacuumed the attic and cleaned up after themselves such that  you would never have known they were here.  The job of sealing the attic was done so well that the inspector made a comment that he had never seen a job done as well as this and ask who had done the work.  He gave them very high praise.  

The salesman we had, Bryan Zailer, was very knowledgeable and helpful.  He would call back immediately if we had a question and stop by to check on things.  I would highly recommend Tri-County to everyone for their insulation needs."

"Job was performed as promised, but in process installer stepped through ceiling causing a large hole about 3x3 ft. over family room. Temporarily fixed, but not finished. Withheld some of the original estimate funds until ceiling is completely repaired. Promised to follow up with another contractor. Insulation was blown in per specification. Have not had time to evaluate the savings in energy costs. Communication between the original estimator and installation crew was lacking some information previously provided. Asked for an afternoon appointment, but came in the morning. Did not matter however, as this was a holiday."

Drywall Insulation questions, answered by experts

Technically speaking, you can use drywall primer over plasters. However, oil-based primers work the most effectively on wall plasters. Meanwhile, water-based primers work just as well with drywalls. Nowadays, there are also universal primers suitable for drywall and plaster. Overall, you will be fine as long as you are using a trustworthy brand.

A local drywall contractor can texture your drywall for you. Drywall contractors are a better choice than general handy people because the contractors have a lot of experience working with drywall mud. The process is somewhat of an art thanks to the complexity of working with the mud, so call in a drywall pro who knows what they’re doing.

It doesn’t matter which way you lay drywall, and you can choose to install it horizontally or vertically depending on the size of the wall and how tall the ceiling is. It’s easier to lay drywall sheets vertically if you have a taller ceiling, but laying sheets horizontally makes it easier to apply joint compound.

Although they are used for similar tasks, spackle and joint compound are not the same. Joint compound, also known as drywall mud, consists of limestone and gypsum and is primarily used for large-scale projects like taping and finishing seams on new drywall. Spackle is composed of gypsum and binding agents, making it a thicker compound best suited for small wall repairs like filling nail holes or cracks, as it dries quickly and is easy to sand. For small repairs, either product can be suitable. However, you can use joint compound for small jobs in place of spackle, but you cannot use spackle for large-scale taping and mudding projects.

All plaster walls will crack over time due to normal house settling and expansion and contraction from temperature and moisture changes. Small, thin hairline cracks are generally not serious and are mostly a cosmetic issue. However, larger or more significant cracks can indicate structural problems.

Here's how to tell the difference:

  • Cosmetic Cracks: Cracks that are 0.5 cm (0.2 inches) or thinner are typically cosmetic.

  • Structural Cracks: Cracks wider than 0.5 cm, excessive or deep cracks, multiple cracks in the same area, or cracks that span around corners can signify a structural or foundation issue. Cracks along the joints where walls meet the ceiling also warrant attention.

For cracks wider than 0.5 cm, structural repair is needed. If a crack is 2.5 cm (1 inch) or wider, or if you notice any signs of a structural problem, it is best to contact a plaster repair professional to assess the damage.
