Insulating the exterior walls of our two story, 1700 sq ft house, involved drilling holes between each stud, blowing in insulating material, plugging the holes, spackling over the holes, priming and finally painting the holes.  Two man crew was very efficient in setting up scaffolding and then doing the work described.  We got a chance to see what the insulation looks like inside the wall when the force of the insulation popped out a built-in bookcase that was not secured.  Its a solid blanket of insulation, filling in the entire space.   Very impressive.  The results have been very noticeable.  The house feels more comfortable, and the heater turns on less frequently.  We should have done this years ago. 

Last part of the project was to blow additional insulation into the attic, which went very quickly.  Overall, the project took 2 very long afternoons/evenings to complete.  It makes a mess around the outside of the house, but they did a good job of cleaning up each day.

"This is an awesome company to do business with. They are honest, reliable, and do an outstanding job. My insulation was very old and my upstairs had become unlivable because it was so hot. I sought out 3 bids and I decided to use this company because of the outstanding experience I had in working with them. The person who took my call was very helpful, courteous and warm. They came out right away to inspect and give an estimate. They did not try to upsell and I felt very comfortable in what they said I needed. The installers arrived on time, got the job done, were super conscientious and efficient. I cannot say enough about what a great company this is. My house feels so much better. Do not hesitate to contact them if you need insulation and you will not be sorry."

"We hired ThermaCore Insulation to remove our old attic insulation, air seal the attic, and install new insulation. Kamal and his crew were professional, honest, and easy to work with from start to finish. During the inspection, they found several air leaks and duct issues that other companies completely missed. They explained everything clearly, completed the work on time, and left the area clean. We noticed a big improvement in comfort right away. Great service, fair pricing, and quality workmanship. Highly recommend ThermaCore Insulation!"

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.

Textured walls can increase the value of your home if the style is modern and seen as a desirable feature and not something a prospective buyer would need to remedy. A good example of this is popcorn texture versus Venetian plaster. The plaster wall would add value to your home, whereas the popcorn texture may be something a new buyer would want to remove.

Knowing what causes drywall damage can help stop it before it starts. Here are some of the most common causes of drywall damage: 

  • Water damage from roof leaks or leaky pipes. 

  • Small holes caused by doorknobs, minor accidents, and rodent infestations. 

  • Wall dents stemming from moving furniture and minor accidents. 

  • Wall cracks that form from a settling foundation or seismic activity. 

  • Nail pops from nails and screws in the walls. 

  • Large holes that are caused by accidents with heavy objects, children and pets, or sporting equipment.

There are several things you should not do when installing drywall. Common mistakes include: adding too many screws, over-sanding, not adding backing support, and installing drywall unevenly. You also should avoid screwing into the same place twice, installing Sheetrock with tapered edges on the outside, and making too many joints.

You do not need to drywall over most types of garage insulation. However, doing so can increase noise reduction, make the space more attractive, and keep children and pets from touching harmful fiberglass insulation. If you’re using cellulose or some other type of blown-in insulation (fiberglass and mineral wool are common), you will need drywall to contain the insulation material.
