"I first received a quote from BC Services back in January, but I had several other projects going on and decided to hold off. Throughout that time, Bo and Chris checked in periodically and respectfully to see if I was ready to move forward and whether there was anything else they could help with. There was never any pressure, just excellent customer service. When I finally decided to move forward with my roofing insulation project, I also added crawl space insulation to the scope of work. They were professional, respectful of my home, and did an outstanding job on both projects. The quality of the work exceeded my expectations, and I am very pleased with the results. I would definitely hire them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for quality insulation and crawlspace related work."

"So much faith goes into hiring someone who you hope will take care of your "major" project as promised. Remmy's Home Services is just that company. They were not the most expensive quote nor the cheapest but when Cory came to my house and frankly went above and beyond what most would consider a simple blow-in insulation job, I knew I'd picked the right company. He did exactly as promised, treating my house as if it were his own and took care of all my concerns. After being here in this all electric home and dreading each winter because of the heating bill and ultimately deciding to freeze because the bill was outrageous, I knew I needed help. If you are looking for a company that will do the job as promised, be efficient and very professional, look no further. I've already recommended him to family. I could go on and on but just know, even if my bill is only reduced by pennies, this is one "major" home repair expense I do not regret. Thank you Cory and your helper for everything!!"

"Had insulation added to our attic. Chris was quick to respond to our request for a quote. Price was good and the work was done within a week. It’s hard to get anyone out to perform any kind of work these days so we were very pleased with the promptness."

Drywall Insulation questions, answered by experts

Yes, you can apply new plaster over an existing plaster surface, such as a wall or ceiling, provided the old plaster is in good condition. Before you begin, check the stability of the existing plaster. The surface must be clean, free of loose material, and have no peeling paint. It is also recommended to roughen the surface slightly to promote adhesion. For older plaster, applying a base coat like a PVA emulsion or a specific bonding agent or primer is crucial. This step makes the existing plaster less porous and ensures the new and old layers adhere properly for a smooth, long-lasting finish.

When used correctly, drywall patch kits can work well. However, there are limitations. Specifically, these kits can only cover holes up to 5 inches in diameter. For anything larger than that, you’ll need to cut out the affected section of drywall and replace it with a new piece. That’s a far more complicated process that involves buying the right type of drywall, finding the wall studs, cutting into your wall, and screwing the replacement drywall in place.

Whether to repair or replace water-damaged plaster depends on the scale of the damage. For small, limited areas, you can often perform a repair yourself. If you choose to paint over small patches, ensure the surface is completely dry and apply a coat of antifungal primer first to prevent mold growth. However, simply painting or plastering over the damage is only a temporary solution that doesn't address the core problem. For more extensive or long-term damage, the plaster may be compromised, and there is a risk of mold. In these cases, it is recommended to remove the damaged section of plasterboard and replace it. You may consider hiring a professional for the repair, and it's worth noting that water damage is often covered by home insurance.

Drywall anchors won’t work on plaster. Instead, they will more than likely cause more damage and pull out the plaster. The best type of anchors to use on plaster walls are the ones that will bite into the surrounding area, such as molly bolts and toggle bolts. Masonry anchors with expanders on the sides also work for lighter pictures.

The two most common drywall thicknesses for ceilings are 1/2-inch and 5/8-inch. For most standard residential applications, 1/2-inch drywall is sufficient and widely used. It provides adequate support and is lighter and easier to handle during installation compared to thicker sheets. However, 5/8-inch drywall is often used for specific cases where additional benefits are needed. It is heavier but provides superior sound dampening and fire resistance. You should consider using 5/8-inch drywall for ceilings in commercial buildings, between a garage and a living space, or above a finished basement to meet building codes or for enhanced soundproofing.
