"Coleman did a wonderful job on our remodel. They did spray foam on the roof of the entire house and installed bats to insulate the walls of our demo'd side. They also had to remove old bats in half of the attic. They were very clean in the disposal of the old insulation and clean up of the overall job when they were done. Communication was great from the start...Shant was very communicative from the initial estimate through to the completion of the job. They were very competitively priced I'd recommend to anyone looking for an insulation contractor."

"The crew showed up on time and were very personable. When they completed the work they asked us to inspect it and when we went up into the attic it was cleaner than when they arrived! They did an amazing job for a reasonable price!"

"We are beyond pleased with the services provided by Hughes. Their workers were exceptional. They showed up on time, were polite, explained the process as the job progressed, answered all our questions and were extremely respectful of our home. They cleaned up as they went along and were very quiet. This was not an easy job. The slant roof and small space must have made this job all the more challenging because you can't stand up straight. The guys still managed to get it done within the time frame they had committed to and never once complained. The works looks very professional and our home feels so much more comfortable than it was before we insulated."

"MEL did a spray foam insulation of my attic last fall. This was a complex job as it required careful co-ordination with separate HVAC and electrician teams (we were also replacing HVAC, which is located in the attic, and upgrading our electric wiring infrastructure). The MEL team was a blast to work with and did an outstanding job - and I don't use such adjectives freely when describing contractor work around our house. First, Mo went to great lengths to assess our attic and propose the right solution .. for example, during the proposal process, he was the only one out of 5 contractors who crawled into a narrow space in a distant part of the attic to inspect it. Second, the work the team did, was truly first class .. we went from massive ice dams before to literally not a single icicle hanging from the roof last winter! I was also very pleased with the clean-up they did, with two rounds of detail-like vacuuming of the attic. Third, MEL's co-ordination with HVAC and electricians was very effective, in spite of major hiccups with our HVAC contractors. Finally, these guys really understand and live the concept of 'customer focus'; their communication is very professional, and it is not unusual that they respond within an hour! The only weakness I would point out was their carpentry subcontractor (Adilson), who left a small piece of work unfinished and I felt he overcharged us for a minor change order. This spring, I hired MEL again to do a smaller project involving rim joint insulation in the basement. Josue led the project, while Mo was on vacation. The experience was as positive as the attic experience. I would recommend MEL without any reservations."

"Roland did an excellent job. He explained the things I needed and those that I didn't. He was right on time and finished the job in the time he stated. He was very professional and knew what he was doing. If you are looking for a straight shooter without any of the sales frills (and the larger cost) then Sav-On Insulation should be your choice."

"Five years ago my family chose Dudley Services to remove asbestos because they used the glove/bag method along with creating a tunnel to enclose all facets of the job. And the quote was inline with others, even though the other companies did not all offer the two above methods. We were totally pleased with the end result. The workers left the basement cleaner than it was before. In October, 2016, I interviewed companies to remove the vermiculite from my second floor. Dudley Services was the company I chose for a number of reasons. 1. Sam Nigro, the owner, is very knowledgeable, easy to talk to, and is willing to explain every stage of the job. And he was the only one who informed me about Mass Save's rebate program that began in Oct, 2015, which was a welcome piece of information. I explained that I had sent two samples to WR Grace's trust to see if my vermiculite qualified for their rebate program. Unfortunately, it did not. Sam said that from his many years of experience, he recognized by the appearance and color of the vermiculite that it was not a WR Grace product. 2. Dudley's quote was significantly below that of the other companies. 3. The workers have been with this company a long time, and at least some of them seem to be the same ones we hired for our mom's house. That speaks volumes to the fact that these loyal workers are obviously happy with their jobs and their boss. 4. The workers are polite, conscientious, and easy to talk to. They work continuously and are willing to help with anything. At one point the electrical cord tripped a fuse so power was lost. But a worker immediately went to the fuse box and corrected the problem. They are meticulous with the prep work, the removal, and the clean-up. After the job was done, the upstairs was pristine and I could not find even one speck of vermiculite. After mentioning it on the first day, they remembered on the third day to vacuum up particles that fell through the opening of the sewer pipe in the basement, in the bathroom fan, and in the kitchen light fixture. This company is thorough and puts in the time and effort to do an outstanding job. A great work ethic! 5. I trusted them completely so that I could leave the house if I needed to during the removal. They had keys to my house and always locked the front doors at then end of their day. 6. It is clear that Sam Nigro has trained his workers carefully, and he sets high expectations so that the job is done to the best of the workers' ability. He has been in this business almost 30 years, and his vast experience has allowed him to establish a top notch company. 7. Dudley Services is a company I will strongly recommend to anyone seeking asbestos abatement."

"We called Sean with New Found Construction and he personally came out and gave us a quote to insulate our attic and the ceiling in the unfinished part of our basement. His price was far more reasonable than other quotes we had gotten and seemed to offer a more complete job. It all came out AWESOME and we can absolutely feel a difference in temperature in the house (especially my office above the unfinished basement which used to be an icebox in the winter) and the heat kicks on a lot less. We have already planned to have him and his crew do other jobs around our house. Two thumbs way up!!"

Drywall Insulation FAQs, answered by experts

Installing or repairing plaster on ceilings differs slightly from performing the same motions on a wall. You’ll apply slightly less plaster to lower the overall weight of the ceiling. Wall texturing is common, whereas most ceilings are smooth plaster. Tough coat plaster is strong, meaning you can use less while retaining a solid surface.

While every home has its own unique needs, ceiling drywall installation typically follows a staggered or stepped pattern to enhance structural integrity and reduce the visibility of seams. Starting from one corner, sheets are placed perpendicular to the ceiling joists, with the ends of adjacent sheets meeting along the center of the joist. The next row begins with a half sheet, ensuring joints don't align vertically. This alternating pattern, combined with proper taping and mudding, creates a seamless appearance and strengthens the ceiling structure, minimizing the risk of cracks over time.

Whether a drywall anchor can be reused depends on its material, type, and the method of removal. Plastic anchors, including expansion and self-drilling types, are generally designed for single use as they tend to break or deform upon removal. Metal anchors, such as toggle bolts, are more durable and may be reusable if they are not damaged during extraction. However, with toggle bolts, the toggle piece can fall into the wall cavity when the bolt is removed, making it difficult to retrieve. If an anchor is damaged during removal, for instance by having its head cut off, it cannot be reused regardless of the material.

Some textures are easier than others to DIY, but the short answer is yes, you can absolutely texture walls yourself. You’ll need certain materials, like a trowel or paint sprayer, but the most important things you’ll need are patience and time. DIYing wall texture can save money and be a fun, messy project, but homeowners need to know that adding texture to a wall isn’t a quick project. 

The average cost to apply a skip-trowel drywall texture to walls is $1.25 to $2.00 per square foot. Ceilings cost slightly more because of the increased difficulty of working overhead. Additional cost factors include any drywall repairs and removal of existing textures or wallpaper.
