"After contacting Jace, he came and did an assessment. He sat down and gave us a very fair bid on adding blown in insulation to our attic. We accepted the bid and he and his partner were back in a week’s time. They were very timely on arriving and were finished in their estimated time. They cleaned up the area very good. I highly recommend this company for any insulation needs."

"I had three different people groups in who came in and gave me an estimate and what might be needed and what they discovered is that for some reason when the house was built 16 years ago, they did not really do adequate insulation.  I did feel very comfortable with Precise & Snug.  They were good about being able to show me pictures.  They showed how it looks up on the attic.  When you are in the process, the told us that they can do this and that and it would cost so much and the final bill was $20,000.  I would not use their service in the future."

"We had tried several times (including our painter trying) to get the 2 solar rings on our high ceilings removed so that we could clean inside the solar windows. Nobody could figure out how to get the rings loose. I finally used Angie's List to find someone who may be
able to help get the rings off.  I spoke with Art and he and his partner were able to come out on the same day I called. (They had an installation cancelation due to snow.) What they determined (and showed me) was that the rings were screwed in to the drywall (from the roof) when the house was constructed. After laying drop cloths down and making sure they had protected the carpeting and furniture, the very carefully managed to get at the screws in order to get the rings off without ruining our drywall,  paint or ceiling. I had never really liked the cheap plastic white rings that were in the house when we bought it.  Art had several new styles with him
that I could choose from.  Before putting the new caps back on, they straightened and reparied the tubes, wipe them down and made them look brand new.  The solar lights/tubes look amazing now.  Thanks guys.  Great job!

"Butch was prompt on coming to our home and getting us an estimate before he left. They arrived on time, got their work done and did a nice job of cleaning up. It's too early to grade how the new insulation is doing as far as comfort and energy efficiency."

Drywall Insulation questions, answered by experts

Although they are used for similar tasks, spackle and joint compound are not the same. Joint compound, also known as drywall mud, consists of limestone and gypsum and is primarily used for large-scale projects like taping and finishing seams on new drywall. Spackle is composed of gypsum and binding agents, making it a thicker compound best suited for small wall repairs like filling nail holes or cracks, as it dries quickly and is easy to sand. For small repairs, either product can be suitable. However, you can use joint compound for small jobs in place of spackle, but you cannot use spackle for large-scale taping and mudding projects.

Yes, drywall can hold a 50-pound TV. However, when mounting a TV, you’ll either need to attach it to wall studs or use drywall anchors. If you use anchors, make sure to buy a type that can hold at least 50 pounds. Molly bolts, threaded anchors, and toggle bolts are all good options. For extra support, you can also install a wall mounting plate with the anchors.

Yes, walls on the top floor can be load-bearing if stacked on the floor’s foundation.

Yes, a fan can help drywall mud dry faster by improving air circulation and reducing humidity in the room. Drywall mud dries through evaporation, so increasing airflow speeds up this process. However, you should position the fan to blow across the room rather than directly on the wet mud. This helps prevent drying too quickly, which can cause cracking. You should also use a dehumidifier if high humidity is an issue.

Popular wall textures include orange peel, knockdown, spray sand, and smooth finishes. Orange peel and knockdown are particularly common choices for drywall as they are simple and cost-effective. Orange peel texture has a lightly bumpy surface resembling the skin of an orange, while knockdown (sometimes called knockout) looks like a stucco finish with flattened high spots. In contrast, popcorn texture has fallen out of fashion, partly due to its past association with asbestos and a shift toward more restrained interior design styles.
