"The company Carico drywall installed new drywall under my carport and painted all around also painted the poles made it look beautiful. Also installed insulation. The workers Tim and his helpers worked so hard in the hottest days of the year and the owner Kyle worked with me and and they had this project done earlier than expected. I would definitely use them again."

"Well, the was too much on the second floor but Aladdin solved that with blown insulation. I look forward to the cool savings in the summer and warm savings in the winter. The house has not added insulation since it’s manufacture in 1989. We have been here for 4 years. Should have done it four years ago. Thank you Aladdin!"

"One of the best experiences we've had with work done in our home. Zac and the team from Foam Co went above and beyond for our project - removing the old insulation from our attic and installing new insulation. They arrived exactly at the agreed on time, took care to protect our home from any mess or damage, and completed the entire project in just a few short hours. All of the team members were polite and kind. They went above and beyond to clean up at the end of the project and to make sure we were satisfied with their work. We will absolutely hire them again in the future!"

Drywall Insulation questions, answered by experts

While not always necessary, you can glue a drywall ceiling in addition to using screws or nails. Drywall is typically secured to ceiling joists with fasteners, which is often sufficient. However, adding construction adhesive can offer benefits like preventing sagging, bridging gaps, and reducing air leaks for better energy efficiency. It may also be used for specific acoustic or insulation needs. On the other hand, many professionals advise against it because properly placed screws make the drywall structural, glue doesn't add strength, and it makes future repairs or replacements significantly more difficult. Ultimately, it's best to follow local building codes and project-specific requirements to decide if adhesive is right for your ceiling.

The age of your home can clue you in to whether you have plaster or drywall ceilings. Homes built after the ‘70s are more likely to have drywall ceilings and walls, while older homes have plaster. You can also do the pushpin test: A pushpin will go into drywall, whereas it’s much harder to push one into a plaster wall. If you’re still unsure, ask a drywall professional to let you know which type of ceilings and walls you have.

When you are learning how to tape and mud drywall, waiting for things to dry requires a lot of patience. So how long does drywall mud take to dry? On average, it takes about 24 hours. However, it depends on things like the thickness of the mud, as well as the room’s temperature, humidity, and ventilation. Using thin layers of mud in a warm, low-humidity room with good airflow reduces average drying time. You also could speed up drying time by making use of hot drywall mud, which consists of a powder that you mix with water, instead of using pre-mixed mud. 

The time it takes for thinset to dry is determined by your room’s ambient temperature and humidity levels. Assuming the average humidity level is around 40% with an average temperature of 70 degrees Fahrenheit, thinset can dry within 48 hours. Lower temperatures and higher humidity can extend the curing process beyond 72 hours, while high heat and zero humidity can shorten the curing process. However, thinset can crack if it dries too fast.

Drywall texture refers to the techniques used on the surface of drywall to create a pleasing visual or tactile effect. Depending on your desired outcome, drywall texture can range from incredibly subtle to a focal point of a room. Textures play a significant role in interior design and are an excellent and relatively cost-effective way to change the feeling of a room.
