One of the things I appreciate the most, is that they handled all the interactions with the insurance company and pointed out the damage. I don't believe I would have got a new roof if they hadn't handled the insurance company. Nice installation job.

On time for estimate (Chris), on time for install (Steve/Pete). I can't say enough about this group - except that I will probably start using them for all my plumbing, etc. I love my fireplace! The "B" was because the estimate/price was somewhat higher than expected, but worth it. <br />

Doorbell Installation questions, answered by experts

If you plan on heating your garage, you must install a vapor barrier when drywalling the garage. A vapor barrier protects your garage from frost and mold that can occur through condensation. If your garage is unheated, you don't need to install a vapor barrier. The only exception is if you regularly crank the heat in your car before getting in it. In this case, you may still want to install a vapor barrier, as your car can heat your garage.

Yes, winterizing your mobile home is helpful for your safety and savings. Keeping your mobile home safe, secure, and warm during the winter will protect it against damage from harsh weather, which can lead to expensive repairs. Not only that, but winterization also helps to lower your energy bills by keeping warm air in and cold air out.

If you need to insulate behind finished walls, the best option will likely be to have an insulation professional install blown-in insulation. The installation requires small holes cut in your wall, after which the installer can blow loose-fill insulation into the void. After the installation, you’ll have minor drywall patching, which shouldn’t cost more than $100. Compared to ripping down the existing drywall, using a different type of insulation, and replacing and finishing the drywall, this should save you hundreds or even thousands, depending on the size of the room you’re insulating.

Each of the three types of wool insulation has particular disadvantages. While their R-value is higher, they all cost more than fiberglass versions. Installing mineral wool and sheep wool requires protective gear. Because of its vulnerability to insects, chemicals are used in its production. Hemp wool is more costly to install than other types because additional tools and labor are involved.

Bubble wrap is better for moving since it can be cut to size, whereas dish foam comes in precut sheets that are harder to manipulate. However, if you’re packing items like dishes, wine glasses, picture frames, or mirrors, dish foam will protect them better. Ensure you measure your box beforehand so you know what size dish foam to purchase.
