"Victor was very thorough, suggesting additional services that I needed but hadn't thought of...namely insulating the water lines in the attic. He not only added the blown-in insulation, but also sealed cracks and replaced or added vertical insulation on skylights and knee walls. All was done at a reasonable price, 25% less than the other bidder."

"My insulation project was more difficult than is typicaly expected, access to far corners of previous insulated attic. 805's crew was successful in insulationing previous overlooked area's. I am experiencing 4 - 5 degrees more warmth this winter reducing my heating costs 15 -20%. John S. SIMENZ & COMPANY CONTRACTING SERVICES INC."

"I’m extremely satisfied with their service! We hired them to do the clearing and installing for the new insulation in my attic a few months ago. It was very easy to set up an appointment over the phone. Adam, the owner, was very helpful every step of the way. They worked super fast to help install the insulation and disposed of the previous one. Great job and thank you guys!"

"When the initial man came to inform us of options, I knew right away that this is the company I wanted to hire! Very knowledgable from many years of experience. Answered all of our questions . Very professional & EXCELLENT Customer service. One thing we learned is not all Insulation contractors are honest. We learned that our past company (I can't remember their name) did not spray any insulation above our kitchen and the rest of the area was sparse & did not meet standard regulations. 805 Insulation has high standards & price was lower than we expected. We no longer have a draft coming from there! They also insulated the entrance and put in deflectors to direct any outside wind up over the insulation. They are the COMPLETE Package everyone needs to hire!!!!!! Donna D. in Los Osos, CA"

"We had no problem or issue with this company. They came and did exactly what they said and promised. The service was fast too. We were able to schedule them for the same week and the work was completed after 2 days of work. According to the technician that worked at our house, it was better to use the opportunity when the attic empty from the old insulation and to replace the ducts as well. For the price that we were able to got, we decided to do that too.
so overall, we are in the stage that we will use this company in the future and we will refer them to people that we know and might need the same kind of work to be done.

Drywall Insulation questions, answered by experts

While every home has its own unique needs, ceiling drywall installation typically follows a staggered or stepped pattern to enhance structural integrity and reduce the visibility of seams. Starting from one corner, sheets are placed perpendicular to the ceiling joists, with the ends of adjacent sheets meeting along the center of the joist. The next row begins with a half sheet, ensuring joints don't align vertically. This alternating pattern, combined with proper taping and mudding, creates a seamless appearance and strengthens the ceiling structure, minimizing the risk of cracks over time.

It’s always better to follow proven drywall repair tips and fix the seams that look bad. However, if you simply want to make them less noticeable until you have time to fix them, you can use paint. A darker color of paint makes bad drywall tape seams less noticeable than light-colored paint. Matte paint hides bad seams better than glossy paint does, too.

Plaster can be a difficult DIY to master, especially if you plan to plaster an entire room, rather than patch a small area. Before you begin a plaster DIY project, you need to know which tools and type of plaster to use. It's also important to know how to prepare the surface and apply the plaster for a smooth finish. If that all sounds like a lot of work, you may prefer hiring a local plaster repair contractor to do the job.

Regular dusting, occasional repainting, and avoiding harsh scrubbing preserve the finish.

You’ll get better results if you soundproof the whole wall. A hole through which light can pass can also let sound waves in. Acoustical or silicone sealant applied to holes and cracks can block enough sound to make a difference. However, the more layers absorb vibrations and slow or stop sound waves, the less noise you’ll have.
