"Rob was a great communicator and his promptness and knowledge were one of the main reasons we went with him over a slightly lower estimate we got. His sons did a good job of doing the work we required, which was messy work, and they left the place in pretty good shape with just some leftover bits of insulation here and there. If I have any additional insulation needs, Calnan would be my first call."

"Our central air conditioning system failed during the worst heat and humidity streak in more than a decade. When our AC contractor arrived to look at replacing the system, he pointed out that none of our 3 attics were insulated. We called Coleman Spray Foam. The put a highly knowledgeable rep on-site in less than 24 hours. One day later we received and signed their proposal. Crews arrived 2 days later and worked in unbearable heat and humidity in our attics until we had R50 insulation (needed for AC/Heat Pump). I would have them back in a heartbeat and highly recommend them for anyone in need of spray foam insulation."

"I highly recommend Green Way. The folks from Green Way were professional and they delivered high quality work at a great price. The work involved applying foam to exposed roof deck in the attic, and applying blow-in insulation between unexposed roof deck the interior walls. I'm very pleased with the outcome."

"I am VERY late in writing this review, but as I was in the Angies List site I thought I'd put this review in. I can't say enough good things about Vaillancourt Roofing. I had a leak in my roof, winter was coming on and no other roofer would call me back. As an act of humanity Adam and Dave drove down from NH to look at my roof even though they don't do repairs in my area - Carlisle, MA ( I understand they could possibly do roof replacement in my area). They came when they said they would and they found the leak quickly. The leak was from my chimney. They aren't mason's necessarily, but they put a temporary fix to the chimney, so I could rest easy until the next Spring when I could address it. They didn't charge me and were done in about an hour. I wish my roof itself needed replacement, if it did I'd all them in an instant. Just wanted to put in this review as I owe it to these great folks."

They cleaned up so well after and you wouldn't even know they were there. We can see the difference in the heating bill and are very pleased. Definately go with Peter's Insulation for a great job! Thanks again Pete"

Drywall Insulation questions, answered by experts

It doesn’t matter which way you lay drywall, and you can choose to install it horizontally or vertically depending on the size of the wall and how tall the ceiling is. It’s easier to lay drywall sheets vertically if you have a taller ceiling, but laying sheets horizontally makes it easier to apply joint compound.

A utility knife is sharp enough to score the drywall and it may work in a pinch for outlet box holes. However, one of the best tools for drywall when you need to make exact cuts for an outlet box quickly is a drywall saw. This handheld tool has a longer blade than a utility knife, so it penetrates the thickness of the drywall easily. The design of its handle and the teeth in its blade make it easier to control while cutting quicker than you can with a utility knife.

While you can put new drywall over old drywall, it’s not always the best option. In some cases, drywalling over drywall can make it harder to find wires and pipes behind your walls and conceal more serious problems with your walls. It can also make the room smaller. On the plus side, putting drywall over drywall can improve soundproofing and insulation. Plus, it’s often less expensive than tearing down and adding new drywall.

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.

The cost to texture drywall depends on whether you want to do the work yourself or hire a professional. The cost of the drywall mud is far lower than labor costs for applying it. The labor cost to spray drywall compound onto a wall is between $0.80 and $1.50 per square foot, while you’ll pay between $1.50 and $2 per square foot for the labor to apply the texture by hand.
