"Contacted Sunlight Contractors about removing fiberglass insulation underneath my house and installing foam insulation. Ira answered his phone after business hours from home and gave me information. The crew showed up promptly to remove the insulation on Monday and returned on Tuesday to install the foam insulation. Crews were very polite and professional. All work was completed promised and area left clean. Will you again for insulation of our attic."

"The men were on time, knew what was needed and cleaned up after. They were a great team. I spoke with the manager who helped me decide what would be best for my situation. I recommend them to everyone for insulation of their attics. Thank you Mr. Brock. It was a pleasure."

"Had Gillespie Insulation come out to air seal our attic and install new blown-in fiberglass insulation. They did a great job, showed up when they said they would, and took the time to explain everything they were doing. The house already feels more comfortable, and everything was left clean when they finished. Would definitely recommend them to anyone needing insulation work."

"AA arrived when promised, their price was much better than the other two bids, and the house is much cooler than before. After a hurricane knocked down two big trees that shaded my house we needed to upgrade the insulation. AA is experienced, completed the job on time, and made us much more comfortable."

"I bought a double to renovate. David was fantastic. Professional, courteous and did great work. He demoed the old plaster, and came back to insulate the walls after the rewiring and plumbing repairs were done. Did an amazing job, in a timely fashion. I couldn't be any happier, and I highly recommend him to anyone for all of their demolition and insulation needs."

"It was so easy. The workers took out the old insulation on Saturday, and clean up/haul away of old insulation was excellent. Sunday morning the foam insulation was installed. It took about five hours. Again, everything was cleaned up. Very pleased with the quality of the work, character of the workers, as well as the owner. Would highly recommend."

Drywall Insulation questions, answered by experts

Yes, drywall nail pops are a common occurrence in homes, both new and old, resulting from the settling and shifting of the structure over time. Though not present in every room or on every wall, encountering nail pops in different sections of a home is not unusual, particularly if the temperature, humidity, or foundation has experienced changes.

You can paint over plaster, but repair any damage to the plaster first, or the paint will crack and bubble. You should also prepare the surface of the plaster to accept paint, which gives your paint job the best chance of looking good and lasting a long time. Before applying the color you want, apply a coat or two of primer. Additionally, use latex paint, and choose a latex paint with a satin finish for areas with dampness, like bathrooms.

You should wait at least 24 hours for drywall mud to dry before sanding or applying another coat. However, the exact drying time depends on several factors, including the thickness of the application, room temperature, humidity, and the type of compound used. Thicker layers, or projects in high humidity, may require 48 hours or more. Lightweight compounds tend to dry faster than heavier, all-purpose ones. You'll know the mud is ready when it feels completely dry and firm to the touch and has changed to a consistent light color. Sanding too early can cause smudging or gouges, so patience is essential for a smooth finish.

Both plaster and drywall are durable wall finishes, but they differ significantly in installation, cost, performance, and aesthetics.

Installation & Cost: Drywall installation is faster and more affordable, typically costing $1.50 to $3 per square foot. It uses premade sheets, making it a more accessible DIY project. Plastering is a labor-intensive craft that requires specialized skills, pushing costs to $2 to $10 per square foot. It involves applying a wet paste over a lath framework.

Durability & Performance: Plaster is generally more durable, longer-lasting, and provides superior soundproofing. It is also a better insulator, which can help reduce energy costs. Drywall is easier to remove for future renovations.

Aesthetics: Drywall provides a smooth, uniform surface ready for paint or texture. Plaster offers a high-end, naturally textured look that can hide imperfections and is often preferred for achieving a classic or historic aesthetic.

Which is better? The choice depends on your priorities. Drywall is ideal for those prioritizing a lower upfront cost, faster installation, and DIY potential. Plaster is the better option for a higher-end project where durability, soundproofing, and a unique, premium finish are more important than the initial cost.

Yes, if there is mold in your drywall mud and you then use it to build walls in your house—or if mold develops in your set drywall, like it can in hot and humid areas—it can lead to illness. Mold in your drywall (or other parts of your home) can make existing respiratory conditions or allergies worse, and the effect can be more intense for those who have existing health issues or compromised immune systems.
