"This was a great experience with a contractor who, quickly made contact, kept me informed of how and when the project be done, showed up on time and kept me aware of any time related issues and did the job professionally and within the time frame projected. The work was exactly what we agreed to and was of sufficient quality that I hired the company for some additional work, painting the spray foam they had just installed, which was done on time and was exactly what they said they would perform. The crew had good customer service skills and were very aware of making sure that I approved of the work they were doing. They were conscious of my property and cleaned up before they left. This was good work. I would highly recommend them for both spray foam and for painting."

"I recently had the pleasure of working with La Familia for my home insulation project, and I couldnâ t be more impressed. From start to finish, they demonstrated professionalism, expertise, and a true commitment to quality. The team was incredibly knowledgeable, guiding me through the various insulation options and recommending the best solution for my needs. The installation process was seamless. They arrived on time, worked efficiently, and left the space spotless when they were done. Not only did they improve the comfort of my home, but Iâ ve already noticed a significant reduction in my energy bills. The attention to detail and the quality of their work is truly top-notch. What sets La Familia apart is their dedication to customer satisfaction. They followed up after the installation to ensure everything was perfect, and their friendly, approachable attitude made the entire process a breeze. If youâ re looking for an insulation company that goes above and beyond, I highly recommend La Familia. They deliver outstanding results and exceptional service!"

"Not only does the roof look gorgeous it's efficient and quiet! It reduced our electric bill along with being cooler, it much quieter. We went with the insulated metal roofing system, which we would recommend, it takes a bit longer and it's more costly but worth the time and money. Frank and his team are friendly, straight forward, and easy to work with. They were efficient and clean, our neighbors even commented how much they appreciated how well they cleaned up each day to keep our road and driveway clear. We would highly recommend them for any roofing job!"

"Rep. checked entire system. He found several wires not connected properly and fixed this. He also made recommendations regarding the attachment of the panels to the rood that would provide more stability and leakproofing. The representative appeared to know what he was doing - much better than others, including the representative who was engaged by the roofer (who replaced our rood due to hail damage) to disconnect/connect the panels."

Drywall Insulation questions, answered by experts

Yes, walls on the top floor can be load-bearing if stacked on the floor’s foundation.

Drywall can be toxic to the environment and to humans in some cases. As drywall breaks down in a landfill and comes in contact with other organic chemicals, it can create hydrogen sulfide gas or leach into the groundwater. Additionally, the CDC recommends methods for controlling the inhalation of drywall dust when handled. While the common ingredients of drywall—gypsum, silica, and mica—are naturally occurring, they can cause irritation in some humans.

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.

While not always necessary, you can glue a drywall ceiling in addition to using screws or nails. Drywall is typically secured to ceiling joists with fasteners, which is often sufficient. However, adding construction adhesive can offer benefits like preventing sagging, bridging gaps, and reducing air leaks for better energy efficiency. It may also be used for specific acoustic or insulation needs. On the other hand, many professionals advise against it because properly placed screws make the drywall structural, glue doesn't add strength, and it makes future repairs or replacements significantly more difficult. Ultimately, it's best to follow local building codes and project-specific requirements to decide if adhesive is right for your ceiling.

All plaster walls will crack over time due to normal house settling and expansion and contraction from temperature and moisture changes. Small, thin hairline cracks are generally not serious and are mostly a cosmetic issue. However, larger or more significant cracks can indicate structural problems.

Here's how to tell the difference:

  • Cosmetic Cracks: Cracks that are 0.5 cm (0.2 inches) or thinner are typically cosmetic.

  • Structural Cracks: Cracks wider than 0.5 cm, excessive or deep cracks, multiple cracks in the same area, or cracks that span around corners can signify a structural or foundation issue. Cracks along the joints where walls meet the ceiling also warrant attention.

For cracks wider than 0.5 cm, structural repair is needed. If a crack is 2.5 cm (1 inch) or wider, or if you notice any signs of a structural problem, it is best to contact a plaster repair professional to assess the damage.
