"The owner of the company Jason Taylor spent time in my attic before we contracted with them so he could give me good and correct information. He also participated in the work of shooting in the insulation. He was very hands-on. Donâ t usually expect this attention from the owner/boss Was very pleased."

"This company installed two whirlybird wind turbine on the roof. During the installation, one roof rafter was cut halfway with a saw blade. I thought the insulation process itself is excellent and am very happy with the result."

"Yes. Billy said everyone was great on install date. Omar was helpful and communicated effectively. Team worked well together and were efficient. Team was respectful of our property and cleaned up after work done. All of the team members being available was excellent to get install in one day. We hopefully will enjoy the benefits of the insulation and all went as anticipated with install. Very glad we had it done. Leo was excellent with pre install quote and arranging for install. We got a few quotes . We paid highest quote to have the work done quickly which met our needs. Thank you for the excellent service"

"Rafael and the Attic Advisor team were great! Rafael came out to do the free inspection and give us a quote. He was on time, friendly and very knowledgeable about the issues in our attic and what could be done to resolve them. The assessment and estimate were very in-depth, and the price was very reasonable and fair (compared to quotes I got from other companies for the same work). Even before committing to the project, Rafael was very responsive and would take time answer any question I had about the project. The project in my attic called for removing the old insulation, sanitizing, sealing to keep critters and rodents out, replacing old air ducts and installing new insulation. On the day of the project, the Attic Advisor crew was on time, hard working and extremely professional. They were very efficient and thorough, with even the smallest parts of the job, and if I had any questions during the process, they were very polite and happy to answer. I appreciated Attic Advisor’s thorough and complete work. I would highly recommend."

"It went well. Brandon introduced the equipment to a new filter that should last a year or more. He explained the benefits of this product. He checked all equipment. I requested and was presented with a proposal for insulation update in my attic. Brandon is a true professional in his field, well organized and very knowledgeable. I look forward to his next visit."

Drywall Insulation questions, answered by experts

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.

Yes, you can install drywall over plaster, but there are important factors to consider. While it can create a smooth, flat surface, it is often not the best approach. Installing drywall over plaster will increase the wall's thickness, which can cause issues with existing window and door frames that may no longer fit. You might also need to adjust power outlets to keep them accessible. A better, though more expensive, option is to remove the old plaster and lath entirely before installing new drywall. Drywalling directly over plaster seals in the old material, and if any problems arise later, you will need to remove both layers down to the structural beams for repairs. Given the potential complications, this job is best handled by professionals.

Most drywall used for interior walls of homes is 1/2-inch thick. This size strikes a balance of being easy to handle and hang while being thick enough for the durability needed on interior wall applications.

Whether you apply the drywall mesh before or after drywall mud depends on the type of patch it is. For self-adhesive patches, you’ll put the patch down first and then coat it with mud. Mesh patches that are not self-adhesive will require you to put mud down first and then press the mesh into it, followed by additional coats of mud.

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.
