"We originally had Home Genius do our roof last year, so when it was time to do our siding a few months ago we called them again because of their exceptional service and professionalism. And now we just had some windows replaced and will be calling them for any future needs."

"Very established company with dedicated, respectful, courtesy employees. One of their products is blown-in insulation. We had them insulate our attic, foundation, and a crawl space under a room which gets cold during winter months. Our home is a large L-Shaped Ranch. It has made a difference in heating of our home. We had them take the old insulation out of the attic, which they vacuumed into bag and hauled away. Home Comfort also offers repair of driveways, where cracks have either sunken or raised the concrete. They repaired the few spots in my driveway, making it where someone won't trip on the crack and fall. I definitely recommend Home Comfort Insulation."

"The team were very professional, owner came at end of day to check up on quality of job (I asked him to look at my attic insulation, he could have easily conned me into paying for more - he didnt, and told me I didnt really need it... he found another insulation issue but recommended I solve it DIY style!)... so he wasnt interested in the $$$$.... Once he found I was happy with work he left me an invoice, no pressure to pay on the spot. The work has done exactly what he promised and I can recommend using them."

"Neil Umphress explained exactly how he would complete the installation of insulation in my attic including the type of material he would use. When a problem was encountered he discussed how it could be handled and left the decision to me. They worked all day with a lunch break Then another problem occurred and I thought they wouldn’t be able to finish in a day, but they pushed through, cleaned up and even insulated an area that was not in the contract just because it needed it. I have more work and will definitely call Neil Umphress to do it."

Drywall Insulation questions, answered by experts

To hide drywall edges, you need to properly apply drywall tape and multiple layers of joint compound. These materials hide the seams between drywall sheets and fill the holes from drywall screws, leaving behind a smooth, flat finish to paint over. Apply joint compound smoothly, and finish the job by sanding the walls to make sure you fully hide drywall edges and other imperfections.

While textured walls can elevate a space in many ways, there are a couple of downsides to consider. Namely, they’re hard to clean, and some textures fall out of fashion quickly. Make sure to consider all your options to find one you truly love before diving in. 

Through expert matching of texture and paint for an invisible repair.

For maximum stability, install grab bars on wall studs, as this will adequately support the weight. However, if you don't have access to studs, you can get by with wall anchors. If opting for the latter, choose specialty hollow wall anchors. 

Plastering and skimming are two different techniques for finishing walls. Plastering involves applying a thick layer of a plaster mixture—typically containing gypsum, lime, cement, sand, and water—to create a new surface. This process often requires multiple coats and is used for repairing significant damage or creating decorative textures. Skimming, on the other hand, is a technique that involves applying a thin layer of drywall compound or joint compound over an existing surface to smooth it out, covering minor imperfections, small cracks, or uneven textures for a polished look. Plastering is generally more costly and labor-intensive than skimming. Although some people use the terms interchangeably, they refer to different processes and materials.
