"This is the second time I have hired L&L. They work fast, clean, and they know their stuff. I was wanting to insulate my vaulted ceiling that I suspected had very little insulation in it from the house being built 30 years ago. Other contractors wanted to rip all the drywall down to install but L&L said they could do a packed insulation that would warm the space and be air tight to avoid condensation issues. I have noticed a huge difference and at a fraction of the cost of others. I already have them lined up for another insulation project in the basement."

"They did a good job, did over spray in one air duct ( we removed for ease of entrance to crawlspace). Made sure I got my 2" of insulation and then a little extra. Overall good experience. Thank you."

"We have an Older home so some of the construction was differant but Shannon was able to solve any problems and did a great job of Insulating our side walls and the attic. We will now have a warm and cozy home. We can already feel the difference. We are waiting for the first utility bill after this was done to see how much our heating bill goes down. Would highly recommend S and K for insulation services. Dennis J"

"The team was on time and very friendly. They explained what they were going to do and got right to work. They laid out materials to cover our belongings in the bedroom as well as the carpet. After they had installed the insulation they patched the holes really well. I won't have to do any extra work! They even vacuumed after they were done which was really appreciated and a sign they care about the quality of the work they complete. I will hire them again in the future to complete more insulation of our attached garage. I would also recommend them to friends and family!"

"Had a water leaking through my roof from Ice dams and damage on whole wall on the west side of my living room.  They had to replace all dry wall, insulation and match the half of my ceiling to the other half that was not damaged.  Also replace a huge 1960 window with 3 new energy  windows.   Great work you would never know that the half of the room had been redone match all the paint and knock down on the ceiling to a tee.  Very knowledgeable, professional and kept me updated on all the process that was going on."

Drywall Insulation questions, answered by experts

You can take a few steps to save money on drywall installation, even when hiring a professional to do the bulk of the work for you. These ideas include the following:

  • Buy the drywall and other materials yourself to avoid product markup and delivery fees

  • Ask about discounts if you use the same company to tape, spackle, and paint

  • Hire drywall professionals in the winter when demand is the lowest

  • DIY as many parts of the project as possible, like replacing insulation and painting

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.

It’s not a good idea to plaster over broken plaster (unless by broken you’re referring to cracked, in which case that’s perfectly fine). However, broken plaster can be a sign of a larger underlying issue like foundation damage or severe damage to the lath holding up the plaster, so it’s worth investigating before you simply plaster on top of the damage.

The time it takes for thinset to dry is determined by your room’s ambient temperature and humidity levels. Assuming the average humidity level is around 40% with an average temperature of 70 degrees Fahrenheit, thinset can dry within 48 hours. Lower temperatures and higher humidity can extend the curing process beyond 72 hours, while high heat and zero humidity can shorten the curing process. However, thinset can crack if it dries too fast.

Yes, you can speed up the time it takes for plaster to dry, but it's important to do so carefully to avoid issues like cracking or crumbling. Proper ventilation is key; open a window or use a fan to circulate air in the room. Heat can also accelerate drying, but be cautious, as too much heat can cause the plaster to dry too quickly and crack. Check the plaster's packaging for the recommended drying temperature and set the room's thermostat accordingly. While managing humidity is important, avoid using a dehumidifier, which can remove moisture too aggressively and result in crumbly plaster.
