"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."
"This was a two part job. The first part was to spray the AC ducts under a mobile home. The second part was regular type insulation under the mobile home. We are very satisfied with both parts and can already see a difference in electric bill. We would recommend calling LHS Insulation for all your insulating needs. Jane and Henry C. From Gonzales, La"

"Their material is very good. They had to put 4 nails on each shingle of the roof which they did not. As a result I had to call them back twice for leaks. They did come back eventually and fix it but I felt they should have done it initially. I did not think their work was poor. They only install and do not make the materials."
"l spoke with three other solar installation companies and was unhappy with the level of professionalism and the knowledge of the salesperson. I had decided to cancel the idea when I came across Sunpro in an ad. I was attended to immediately, a very impressive assessment was done to analyze the amount of electricity I have been using through the years and exactly how many solar panels I would need to cover my power needs without overpaying for panels that were not needed. Everything was documented for me in a very professionally done color booklet with all the facts, figures, and graphs that made it very easy for me to understand the entire process, costs, benefits, and etc. During this process I was advised what Government rebates were available for the installation of solar panels AND that if a structure was needed to mount the panels to, rebates might also apply to the cost of the structure. We had been considering adding a patio to our home and Sunpro showed us the benefit of building the patio now which would provide the exact location and angle for the panels to capture the maximum amount of sunlight. The entire job was done in a surprisingly short time and the quality was superb. The patio (including stamped and colored concrete) turned out beautifully. Frankly, I don't think I have ever been truly satisfied with any work that has been done on my home until this experience. Even the city inspector remarked at the excellent quality of the work that was being done. In addition, the Sunpro system included making the entire house energy efficient by spraying foam insulation in the attic and sealing the entire house. This extra step (which was never suggested by the other companies) has made an amazing difference in the way the home feels and it allowed for fewer panels needed to provide the power my family requires (saving me money). I have found out since the installation that Sunpro used certain components in their system that were far superior to what the other companies had advised. These small and inexpensive upgrades have made this system far more efficient than what I had been shown by the other companies. The owner of Sunpro provided amazing supervision for the entire job. Sunpro also provided ALL the documentation I needed to apply for the rebates and tax credits. Everything was put in an organized folder to give to my CPA. The entire process went perfectly. Since then, Sunpro has done other work for me that has also been done perfectly. I don't know if solar panels are right for everyone, but this is definitely one of the best decisions I have ever made. since the installation, I have not pain an electric bill. In fact, at this time the electric company owes me electricity. I might add that in my particular case, the entire project costs LESS than what it would have cost me to build the patio alone. Frankly, it is my policy to NEVER recommend anyone. I have taken the time to write this extensive recommendation only because I am 100% satisfied with the way the job was handled and the quality of the work and materials and the outcome of the entire project.

Vinegar and bleach are effective options for removing mold from drywall. Vinegar is a better choice if you have a smaller mold issue while bleach is best if you have a larger mold problem. If the area you're cleaning has limited ventilation, using vinegar would be a better option. In that case, you could mix vinegar with baking soda to remove more stubborn mold growth.
New plaster must be fully dry and cured before painting. The drying time for plaster ranges from 1 to 4 hours, but the curing process can take more than five days, depending on various factors, including humidity levels, temperature, the amount of plaster used, and airflow in the area. You should always apply primer before painting plaster.
If your home’s foundation shifts slightly over time, any seams in the drywall represent the weakest point in the wall, leading to cracks. If your home has significant changes in temperature and humidity, this can cause the drywall to swell and contract slightly, causing a crack at the weak point of the seam. If your drywall installer did a poor job securing the panels to the wall studs, this could cause a weak layout and cracks in the seams.
There are several things you should not do when installing drywall. Common mistakes include: adding too many screws, over-sanding, not adding backing support, and installing drywall unevenly. You also should avoid screwing into the same place twice, installing Sheetrock with tapered edges on the outside, and making too many joints.
The easiest way to tell if a wall is load bearing is to check if it’s an exterior wall or if it runs perpendicular to the joists above and below it (or parallel to beams). Exterior walls are almost always load-bearing, and walls that run under beams or parallel to them are also usually load-bearing. There are exceptions to these rules, and walls that don’t fit into these categories can still be load-bearing. If you’re unsure, hire a structural engineer to look at your home to assess whether or not the wall is structural.
