"The team at Dana Insulation is top notch. From Tom in sales to the installation team everyone was courteous and professional. They put down protective plastic on the floors so as not to get any dirt or insulation on the floors. Did a great job cleaning up after the job as well. Thank you very much Dana Insulation!!!! I would definitely recommend this company!!!"

"They completed the Encapsulation and insulation of the crawlspace under my home, that was quite the mess, into a clear, dry, cobweb and bug free area that I no longer fear. The owners priority is making sure the customer is satisfied and the price was a lot less then I expected considering all the work that needed to be done. I would highly recommend Midwest Insulation to anyone."

"From the consultant, Joe, to the five men that came to my home, I was impressed with the professionalism and respect for my home. Tyler,Jake, Chuck, Dustin and Scott made sure everything was installed with exceptional precision and attention to detail. It took a full day to accomplish. They arrived on time, and cleaned up afterwards throughout my home and garage. Protective covering on their feet with additional protective materials on my floors and walls were used. Their care and respect went above and beyond. The product is eco friendly, fire retardant and mold resistant. And my home is warm and cozy. Removing all the old and filthy insulation that is 37+years old and leaving my attic space and foundation areas sealed and cleaned just makes everything feel buttoned up and tight. Highly recommend! Special shout out to Makaila and Katie, office personnel that kept in touch and applied for eligible rebates to help keep costs down as well. Thank you!"

"I hired Thermal Solutions to spray foam insulate my pole barn and they did an excellent job. I got 4 quotes and theirs was the cheapest. They say never go with the cheapest, but I did because I wanted to support a veteran owned, local business, and after talking with Niko, I felt confident the job would be done right. I'm really glad that I did because they came when they said they would, they did it just the way that I wanted, and they did a great job of cleaning up when they were done. I highly recommend them for open and closed cell spray foam insulation jobs!"

Drywall Insulation questions, answered by experts

The amount of drywall you need for a 1,000-square-foot basement depends on the ceiling height, angles, number of doors and windows, and more. To find the wall square footage, multiply the width and height of each wall, minus any gaps from windows or doors, and add the totals together. You’ll also need enough drywood nails or screws to install the drywall correctly.

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.

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.

A 50-pound mirror can be hung on drywall, but only if it has the support of strong hardware. Ideally, you can find the studs behind the drywall and attach the mirror to them; this will give your mirror better stability. Otherwise, confirm that you are using anchors appropriate to the weight of the mirrors. Another technique is to use French cleats—two pieces of wood that fit together, with one piece attached to the wall and the other to the mirror. This allows the weight to be distributed over a wider area.

You can take a few steps to save money on drywall installation, even when hiring a professional to do the bulk of the work for you. These ideas include the following:

  • Buy the drywall and other materials yourself to avoid product markup and delivery fees

  • Ask about discounts if you use the same company to tape, spackle, and paint

  • Hire drywall professionals in the winter when demand is the lowest

  • DIY as many parts of the project as possible, like replacing insulation and painting
