"I highly recommend getting additional quotes. My first number from USA Sprayfoam was significantly more than what I ended up paying for my two attics. Don’t go for the cheapest or most expensive quotes unless you feel like you’re inviting the right company in to do the work your having done. USA matched my lowest quote and they are fantastic. The removal of the old insulation was a solid five or six hours of work - it had been up there 44 years and only added to over the years so as you can imagine, it was nasty stuff. Both crews were attentive to our home and protected the flooring with a plastic base everywhere the hose was to be dragged through. They cleaned up so well, it was like they were never even there. And the end result was absolutely stunning. We had a small rodent population in the attic and a few snakes. After flaming, nothing can get in and our attic temperature won’t go above 78 degrees or below the 60s in the winter. Well worth the cost to have this done and we will save a lot of money for as long as this home stands. No-brainer upgrade."

Drywall Insulation questions, answered by experts

Some painters will repair minor drywall damage. For repair work of any kind, it’s a good idea to hire the professional required for the job. Many painters will have the materials on hand and can add them to the total cost. While you may save some money, there is a chance the work will be subpar compared to a professional who specializes in drywall.

Cracks, water damage, and holes from fixtures or impact.

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.

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.

A jigsaw is commonly used to cut holes in drywall. It offers versatility and precision, making it suitable for creating circular or irregular openings. When equipped with the right blade, a jigsaw can swiftly and cleanly cut through drywall, making it a good choice for DIY projects.
