"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."

"Did a great job...it was a very long day from start to finish however. They did a great job of keeping everything as clean as they could since our attic access was in the master closet! Yikes! Really made a difference and our house stayed much cooler with the fan and new insulation!"

"Rafael and his company are great people to work with. Their in-depth estimate and assessment of the attic is unparalleled, not to mention competitive. They were very flexible with accommodating our needs on our schedule. Very responsive Manager too, would reply to my calls and text almost immediately. I really appreciate how hard working and efficient these guys are. I had other workers doing work on our house at the same time and they were also impressed at how clean they left the attic before installing the new insulation. Rafael values your business and his work and attitude definitely demonstrate it. Call them you won't regret it."

"Rob was amazing! I wanted to get my attic insulated, my house was built in the sixties and had never been updated to current standards. Was able to get an estimate within 2 days and when he came he inspected throughout to see if there were other problems which he found from when we replaced out AC ducts. Estimate was extremely reasonable and was able to get a insulation date the following week. Luckily we were able to get this done before the heat waves started and I already have noticed the improvement on retaining ideal temperature and my AC runs much more efficiently and has to run for less time. Cant recommend this company enough!"

Drywall Insulation questions, answered by experts

Although they have similar applications, spackle and joint compound are not the same. Their primary differences lie in their composition, consistency, and ideal use cases.

Spackle is composed of gypsum and binding agents, making it thicker than joint compound. It dries quickly and is easy to sand, which makes it ideal for small wall repair projects like filling nail holes or patching minor damage.

Joint compound, also known as drywall mud, consists of limestone and gypsum. It is primarily used for large-scale projects, such as taping and finishing the seams on newly installed drywall. It tends to shrink more than spackle and can be more difficult to spread.

While both products can be used to fill small depressions and cracks, spackle cannot replace joint compound for taping and mudding new drywall. Conversely, you can often use joint compound for small patching jobs typically done with spackle.

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.

You should always hang drywall from the top down. Starting at the top makes it easier to create a straight, tight line between the ceiling and the wall. Any gaps that occur will be at the bottom, where they are easier to manage. You can either cut the bottom piece of drywall to fit the remaining space or cover the gap with baseboard trim. Additionally, starting at the top is physically easier, as you won't have to fit the top sheet into a tight space between the lower sheet and the ceiling, or try to balance the upper sheets on the lower ones while securing them.

To maintain plaster walls, inspect them regularly for cracks and seal them early. Clean the walls by dusting regularly or using a gentle, damp cloth. It's also important to avoid moisture exposure. Repainting as needed will help maintain the wall's appearance and longevity.

Cracks, holes, water damage, and dents from heavy equipment often require repair.
