Fluency in English was a problem, otherwise the installers were personable and accommodating. They accidentally cut a wire in our security system, so a further contractor had to be hired to fix the problem.

Very responsive and easy to work with. There was a small issue with one part of the install, but they came the next day to remedy it. We had just the gutter guard installed, and so far it seems like a great product.

Doorbell Installation questions, answered by experts

Natural fiber batts and spray foam insulation both work great for soundproofing. Newer materials, such as hemp batts, are more expensive but more effective for insulation and sound blocking. They are also more sustainable. There is also a professional system called Blow-In Blanket Insulation (BIBS) that is soundproof and moisture-resistant. However, BIBS must be installed professionally and can be a costly investment.

Installing insulation helps reduce energy usage, improve home comfort, and lower utility bills by maintaining stable indoor temperatures year-round.

The time required for insulation installation can range from a few hours to a few days, with most projects taking 1-3 days to complete. The final duration depends on the project's size and complexity, the area size, and the type of insulation being installed.

Yes, basement insulation needs a vapor barrier due to its susceptibility to moisture seeping in from the outside of the house. You should install a moisture barrier before you install insulation or purchase insulation that comes prebuilt with a moisture barrier to avoid water damage in your insulation and costly mold and water remediation expenses.

For your safety, you should always wear a mask when cutting batts of fiberglass insulation. We also recommend wearing eye protection, safety gloves, and long sleeves to protect your skin. Properly suiting up helps you avoid several fiberglass issues, such as cuts from the tiny shards of glass and inhaling small bits of fiberglass.
