"Abraham was very prompt visiting my home to bid on my insulation project after I called him. Once I accepted his proposal, the crew was able to begin work very quickly. The three workers were very friendly upon arriving. They were hard workers both days that they were completing the project. They were very conscientious by placing covering on my floors & cleaning up after the job was finished. I would definitely recommend Insulate Iowa LLC for your project."

"They were honest by explaining to me why I shouldn't blow insulation into my walls because the siding is wood and would cause mold issue. Other companies would do the work even though they shouldn't."

"I am 100% satisfied. Excellent customer service, on time, friendly and knowledgeable. I had insufficient insulation in my attic, and they remedied the situation quickly and professionally by adding enough foam insulation to achieve R-49. Also helped me with my rebate form for MidAmerican Energy. Top notch!"

"Abraham and his team came out and completed our insulation project in -17° weather. My wife and I are thrilled with the finished product and the job that these guys did. We would definitely recommend them and would hire them again in the future. We have bedrooms above our garage that were 15° colder than the rest of our house so we had Abraham give us his expert opinion on what needed to be done to warm up those bedrooms and our garage. Only after about an hour after his team left, we could already feel the temperatures rising in both the bedrooms, and the garage. Can’t thank them enough for their hard work!"

Drywall Insulation FAQs, answered by experts

You can plaster over regular drywall, but it's essential to prepare the surface properly. Before plastering, the drywall should be clean, free of dust, and any loose or peeling paint should be removed. Applying a primer specifically designed for plastering can improve adhesion. Some professionals recommend applying a base coat of plaster or joint compound to create a better surface for the plaster to adhere to. Proper preparation ensures a smooth and durable plaster finish over regular drywall.

A common cause of separation between a wall and the ceiling is truss lift—this can happen to the ceiling of rooms directly under the attic when the seasons change and wood building materials dry out, shrink, and shift. Roof trusses often dry out at different speeds, and if the bottom pieces dry out faster than the top pieces, they can shrink and pull the attached drywall away from ceilings and walls, causing cracks. Fortunately, truss lift is only a cosmetic problem, not a structural problem, and you can fix it by separating the ceiling drywall from the roof trusses, and patching the cracks.

Cracks, holes, water damage, and dents from heavy equipment often require repair.

Drywall tape is made of paper, while drywall mesh is made of fiberglass or metal. Drywall mesh patches are suitable for repairing small holes in drywall, while paper drywall tape holds a crease better for corners. You need joint compound to adhere drywall tape to the wall, while mesh patches may be self-adhesive.

Plaster is a pretty tough surface, but it can still sustain damage from things like bumping against it, water issues, dampness, extreme humidity changes, and plain old age. Most plaster walls last hundreds of years and will only be taken down to the base layer when major repairs are required. Being cautious around the wall, not placing furniture against it, and ensuring stable humidity are all great ways to reduce possible damage.
