Customers say: Quick response

"Since we had squirrel damage on some electrical wiring in the attic, we hired them to first remove the old insulation so the electrician could more easily do the wiring repair. Cost more to remove the old stuff (old and worthless), but it saved $500 on the electrical work bill. After the electrical work was done, they came back and filled in the attic with R49. The guys doing the the removal and installation work were great, and it went quickly and efficiently. Terry was a good guy to work with for estimates and scheduling, and Brian for invoicing. Overall, we are very happy. Wish that work with all home contractors went this well."

"Thermal Home Insulation did blown in insulation, air sealing, and radiant barrier work in my attic. The initial estimate took place quickly after my inquiry, and was very informative. Jim was able to get the job scheduled within 1 week as well, and was able to help me take advantage of a material discount and home energy efficiency program discount as well. The house already does a better job of retaining heat and cold. Thank you for the good work in a very timely manner, and for answering my questions along the way and being flexible. Would recommend to anyone with high energy bills due to their attic space temperature balance."

"Very professional. On time and called ahead and they were very knowledgeable. Uriel Domingues did the work and was very respectful. I recommend Koala and Uriel anytime. I had them remove my insulation from my attic and now Iâ ll definitely have them install the new insulation when Iâ m done with my kitchen remodel."

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.

Yes, a one-story house can have a load-bearing wall. The load-bearing walls in a single-story home are usually the exterior walls. If the house has a basement with exposed walls, the arrangement of the beams can help indicate what walls are load-bearing.

The cost to skim coat drywall is $1.15 to $1.35 per square foot. Most of the cost is labor, for the necessary skills to apply the skim coat with precision using high-quality tools. This is a job better left to the professionals for the best outcomes.

The average cost to apply a skip-trowel drywall texture to walls is $1.25 to $2.00 per square foot. Ceilings cost slightly more because of the increased difficulty of working overhead. Additional cost factors include any drywall repairs and removal of existing textures or wallpaper.

The amount of drywall you need for a 1,000-square-foot basement depends on the ceiling height, angles, number of doors and windows, and more. To find the wall square footage, multiply the width and height of each wall, minus any gaps from windows or doors, and add the totals together. You’ll also need enough drywood nails or screws to install the drywall correctly.
