"From the initial interaction through sweeping up - the insulation inc team were thorough in explaining their bid, the cellulose insulation product- and the process. They showed up on time - blew our garage attic and left the garage clean."

"Exactly as the same as the first time I air sealed my attic in my previous house. Last year when we decided to sell our house I was inspecting my house as I would have if I was purchasing it. I noticed a small (1/4") gap between the master bathroom vent fan grill and the ceiling. I could not adjust it. Upon further inspection I realize it was because the foam that was installed when my attic was air sealed had expanded creating the 1/4" gap. I had that work done two years prior by Houle Insulation. I contacted Arne and inquired if he had any suggestions. His only suggestion was that he would correct the problem. Two days later he had two workers in my attic correcting the issue. Just like the first time, they were prompt and cleaned up after the work. I offered to pay, he would not have it. He said he should have noticed when the job was originally completed two years prior. There was no discussion or haggling, he simply said he would correct it. As impressed as I was with the lower energy bill, I was more impressed with how he and his team comported themselves. Also my house was more comfortable because the temperature was more uniform within my house. This year when we moved into our new house, built in 1992, the first thing I did was call Arne to air seal the attic. My choice of whom to hire for air sealing my attic was a no brainer, Houle Insulation. They also performed a blower door test. They also sent in all the information required for me to receive an energy rebate from my utility company. The best recommendation I can make is that when I decided to air seal our new home the first person I called was Arne. He made a wise decision to correct what needed with correcting without any questions. He did what should have been done, and therefore he got my repeat business and I was happy to give my business to him!"

"I recently had the pleasure of working with Koala Insulation of St. Paul for the installation of 4 inches of spray foam insulation in my garage attic, and I couldn't be more satisfied with the results. From the outset, Koala Insulation impressed me with their professionalism and expertise. Their team was punctual, arriving on time for the initial consultation and installation. They took the time to explain the benefits of spray foam insulation, including its superior air sealing properties and energy efficiency compared to traditional insulation materials. This thorough approach gave me confidence in my decision. On installation day, the crew was efficient and respectful of my home. They came fully prepared with all the necessary equipment, and I appreciated their attention to cleanliness. They took care to cover areas that needed protection, minimizing any mess during the installation process. The actual application of the spray foam was quick and straightforward, and the team worked collaboratively to ensure a high-quality finish. After the installation, the team provided useful guidance on maintaining the insulation and what to expect in terms of performance. They made themselves available for any follow-up questions, which shows their commitment to customer satisfaction even after the job was completed. I highly recommend Koala Insulation of St. Paul for anyone considering an insulation project, including upgrading or replacing your current fiberglass insulation. Their timely service, knowledgeable staff, and high-quality workmanship resulted in a seamless experience will undoubtedly improved my home's comfort and energy efficiency as we head into the cold season. If you're looking to enhance your insulation, look no further â Koala Insulation is a solid choice!"

"First, thank you Tyler for making this happen in a very short period of time. I know this required some creative scheduling on your part and we can't thank you enough for all your hard work. We have a challenging house roof on our 2 story home, which required re-decking with plywood before it could be re-roofed. Also a second story flat roof over a porch, a detached garage and a screen house. Also had some minor fascia and soffit damage to repair from a prior storm, a chimney demolition and cap off, and 3 new whirlybird vents added to the roof. The amazing team completed about 98% of the project on 1 very hot day. They worked carefully to protect all structures, plants and shrubs on the property and did an excellent job on the clean-up. Any minor issues were promptly addressed and resolved. Everyone involved with eRoof was a pleasure to work with. We couldn't be more pleased with the final results."

Drywall Insulation questions, answered by experts

Plaster is denser, harder, and more porous than drywall, so it absorbs moisture differently. This means you’ll often need more prep work, such as thorough sanding, patching, and priming with a high-quality bonding primer. Additionally, you may need more coats of paint to achieve even coverage. While the process takes more time, it helps ensure a durable and professional-looking result.

Plaster is a beautiful finish but is labor-intensive to install and remove. It’s vulnerable to cracking and more sensitive to moisture variance than drywall. Installing plaster on a new wall is an expensive process that can take days to weeks, depending on the scope. Removing a plaster wall can also be quite expensive and time-consuming.

Whether you need a drywall anchor depends on the specifics of your project, particularly what you're hanging and where. You do not need a drywall anchor if you can screw or nail the object directly into a wooden stud, as the wood provides sufficient support and stability. However, if there are no studs in the location where you plan to hang the item, you should use drywall anchors to ensure it is securely supported. For very lightweight objects, like small pictures, adhesive picture hanging strips can be a suitable alternative to anchors.

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.

It’s not a good idea to plaster over broken plaster (unless by broken you’re referring to cracked, in which case that’s perfectly fine). However, broken plaster can be a sign of a larger underlying issue like foundation damage or severe damage to the lath holding up the plaster, so it’s worth investigating before you simply plaster on top of the damage.
