"I had used Community Insulation to add insulation to the attic and was so pleased with their professional service that I requested them to add insulation to the crawl space. I have recommended them several times."

"We were remodeling our basement for a rental apartment. While we had all of the drywall removed we decided it would be a good idea to sound proof the area for privacy. I did some research online and found a system and company that sold soundproofing supplies. We completed some of the work but we ran into a time crunch and decided that we needed to hire someone to help us finish. Freeman Insulation and Construction and Insulation replied promptly and was very friendly. They agreed to come out at a time that fit my schedule to go over the project in person. When they came out they were familiar with system and had no problem reviewing the instructions of the supplies I had purchased and even provided me with additional suggestions to improve the performance of the soundproofing that I had not even considered. They came back with a quote that was very reasonable after taking the time to find the best deals in town on the remaining supplies required for the project. They completed their work with no delays. The thing that set this company apart from every one else is when they came by to check up on my project and helped clean up after a messy drywall company (not affiliated with Freeman Insulation and Construction) to help me meet my deadline. This was above and beyond my expectations. Overall their communication was excellent, they were friendly, professional and courteous. The end product was better than I expected and most important, I have a happy wife at the end of the project. A huge thanks goes out to these guys for making this the smoothest part of my project!"

Drywall Insulation questions, answered by experts

You can put drywall mud over paint to even out the surface or entirely resurface it. Sand the surface with 280-grit sandpaper, vacuum the debris and dust with a shop vac, and clean it with a slightly damp cloth. Allow the surface to dry. Apply drywall primer, especially if you’re skim-coating an entire wall. Apply the right type of drywall mud over the surface and smooth it with a trowel. Allow the layer to cure fully, then sand it before applying another layer or painting it.

You should wait at least 24 hours for drywall mud to dry before sanding or applying another coat. However, the exact drying time depends on several factors, including the thickness of the application, room temperature, humidity, and the type of compound used. Thicker layers, or projects in high humidity, may require 48 hours or more. Lightweight compounds tend to dry faster than heavier, all-purpose ones. You'll know the mud is ready when it feels completely dry and firm to the touch and has changed to a consistent light color. Sanding too early can cause smudging or gouges, so patience is essential for a smooth finish.

If your home was built before the 1940s and was not remodeled in the past 50 or so years, you probably have plaster walls. Aside from assuming, there are some practical ways to tell if you have plaster walls, including the following: If you knock on the wall and it feels solid, not hollow, if you can’t insert a thumbtack easily, if there are cracks that look like spiderwebs, or if your home has curved, arched, or swirled walls, doorways, or window openings.

If you have an unfinished basement or attic, you could examine the backs of any finished walls to check, too.

Yes, you can use drywall repair techniques for some types of plaster damage. Tiny holes and small cracks in plaster can be patched in similar ways to drywall. You apply the necessary compound to fill the hole, wait for it to dry, then sand it down. For larger damage, like water damage or mold, you need to use plaster-specific techniques and materials.

The easiest way to cut holes in drywall for electrical boxes is to use a spiral saw with a drywall router bit. Hang the drywall without cutting out a hole for the box, but make sure you measure and mark where the box is located on the wall. Once you screw in the drywall sheet, drill a small hole into the box void, insert the spiral saw bit, and move it around the edge of the box using the inside wall as a guide. You can also use an oscillating multi-tool with an electrical box cutout for fast, professional results.
