"John and his team did amazing work removing the old, insufficient insulation in the attic of my nearly 120 year old home and replacing it with a much higher R-value blow-in insulation. The difference in the look of the attic is phenomenal, and I am confident it will be good for the energy efficiency of our home as well. The entire project took around 8 hours and the team even cleaned up to the point where you could hardly tell any work was done. I found dealing with John and Spray Foam Insulation Systems to be a very pleasant experience. Very honest and forthright, while offering a very fair rate for the work. I highly recommend working with them."

"I could not be more impressed with Jesse and his team. They were so responsive, so professional, and so incredibly helpful. Great communication throughout. Great work product. Pricing that was very competative and reasonable. The next time I have an insulation need I won't even both to get bids from other shops. I will just use Century. Highly recomend."

"UZ Insulation was wonderful to work with! They showed up when scheduled, I received a fair estimate, and they notified me about the rebate program with CenterPoint Energy. All of their employees were personable and represented the company well. I had a unique situation that required extra phone calls and assistance, that had nothing to do with the work that UZ performed, and Tim M. and Angie were unbelievably patient and went the extra mile to help me. I highly recommend UZ for insulation work! The best part is I no longer smell cigarette smoke from an adjacent unit! Thank you UZ Insulation!"

Drywall Insulation FAQs, answered by experts

If your premixed drywall mud is dried out or has begun to set in the bucket, you may be able to revive it by adding warm water and stirring. However, the first and most important step is to scrape off any hard, dried bits of drywall that may have accumulated toward the top of the container and throw them away because they will not easily reconstitute back into the drywall mud mix.

While it’s most common to sand plaster dry, it is possible to wet-sand plaster, too. Doing so can reduce the amount of plaster dust released into the air and make it easier to work in smaller, more delicate areas (such as around wall trim). However, some people find that wet sanding leads to more imperfections, which is why larger walls are more often dry sanded to ensure an even finish.

In framing, studs are placed at 16-inch intervals to coincide with the typical spacing of wall materials such as drywall or plywood. This spacing is called "on-center" and is necessary for maintaining structural stability and efficient use of materials. The 16-inch spacing also helps to distribute the weight evenly across the building's structure. For those looking to cut material costs and improve energy efficiency, 24-inch stud spacing can be employed through a method called "advanced framing". This requires careful planning and adherence to local building codes to ensure structural integrity.

Furring strips, thin strips of wood or metal, are not always required for ceiling drywall installation. If the ceiling surface is even and in good condition, drywall can be directly attached to the ceiling joists using screws. However, furring strips become essential when dealing with irregular surfaces or when additional insulation or soundproofing is needed. They create a level substrate for attaching the drywall. Ultimately, the decision to use furring strips depends on the condition of the existing ceiling and the specific requirements of the project.

Whether it’s better to screw or glue drywall depends on your specific budget and project timeline. Professional drywall installers are more likely to use screws and fasteners than adhesives, but it takes longer. But if you are DIYing your drywall installation, glue is a perfectly fine choice if you’re willing to pay extra for adhesive.
