"Shawn provided lots of information during the visit for an estimate. The day of work they arrived on time and were diligent about accomplishing adding insulation to my attic. Their clean up was thorough. They were courteous and pleasant."
"I have used A+ Insulation for two separate projects. Shelby, the estimator, was responsive, knowledgeable and friendly. The installation crew was quick and through. They were easy to deal with and they didn't leave a mess behind. Overall, I got great service and a great product for a fair price. I would recommend A+ insulation and I'd use them again."
"Very friendly and professional service. Explains and shows you what his inspection on your insulation and needs are and listens to you and answers your questions. Very reasonably priced with no pressures like other companies. I am going to have them do the insulation in my walls next year. In my opinion A+ service"
"I highly recommend Insulation Pros of KC for your insulation needs. Kyle the Sales Manager: made it easy to understand what I needed. Josie the Office Manager: took the time to answer my questions when I called, and was the one responsible for my decision to go with Insulation Pros. The installation crew: Devon, Tyler and Leo were a great team to work with, very personable and just all around nice guys who did a great job with the installation. Tanner - the Production Manager, who came by to see that everything was going like it should. From the first meeting with Kyle to the time the crew drove away, it was easy and pleasant to work with this company and they did a great job. Attached are pictures to show the 22" of insulation in my attic! :)"

"It is with absolute pleasure that my wife and I have the opportunity to write this review on behalf of Young Remodeling. As business owners in the service industry (medical), we understand the importance of providing quality service, communicating effectively all while completing an endeavor in the most cost effective, time conserving manner. On all accounts, every member of the team at Young Remodeling succeeded with a resounding A+++++ rating. As with most home owners going through the process of a renovation, we performed our due diligence and met with five different companies/contractors over a period of two months. We entertained and enjoyed hearing the varying sales concepts and design ideas all while trying to adhere to a budget with which we were comfortable. Paul Young, owner of Young Remodeling, was our fourth contact and, in all reality, was our last. His approach to the job at hand was both methodical and efficient, yet hands on and personal. After all, it is his name on the business cards and it clearly showed in the pride he takes in his work....THANK YOU PAUL!!!! After making our decision, we were assigned a designer (chosen by Paul based on our needs) to begin the process of fabricating the kitchen of our dreams. Jenny was an absolute delight to work with and simply understood my wife and I from the very first meeting. We met with her many times over the course of 4-6 weeks as we reviewed the various designs, narrowed down choices, and then finally came up with the final rendition. She not only created the designs but also helped us choose from the myriad of material available (granite, back splash, tile, color schemes, etc). I would feel remiss if we did not mention that her computer renditions (numerous and accurate) were enjoyable to view and likely a great deal of work....THANK YOU JENNY!!!! Once the design was complete, the structural engineer approved, and the city gave blessing on the design, we were assigned to Rex, who was the next important stage of the project. Rex was our project manager who became the "go to" contact throughout the remainder of the renovation journey but was in no way isolated from Paul or Jenny. Rex, in short, was simply amazing. He kept everyone (from permits, demolition, plumbing, electrical, drywall, ceiling repair, flooring, painting, cabinet install, granite install, appliance install) on a schedule and over the course of our 10-12 week renovation, we never varied from the "master schedule" but by a day or so. We cannot say anything regarding Rex and his work ethic except for "Stellar Job"....THANK YOU REX!!!! Behind the scenes of all the work done were the hardworking crews of the individual disciplines. Each and every one of the crews involved in our renovation not only acted and performed in the most professional manner but are deserving of the same THANKS as the rest. We would like to acknowledge the Demolition crew, the Framing /Building crew (Jamie, Jeff and Cody), the Drywall/Ceiling crew (Matt and his father), the Plumbing Crew, the Flooring crew (Carlos and his team), the Cabinet Install crew (Charlie and his team), the Granite install team (Evolve), and the Painting crew (Brent and his team)....THANK YOU ALL!!!! As we have decided to stay in this home for the long term, we look very forward to our next projects in the years to come...basement remodel, master bathroom remodel and outdoor stone patio/sun room addition. It goes without saying that we look forward to using Young Remodeling for all our future remodeling needs.
"Dan was actually about the 6th person that I had come to give me an estimate for my job. I interviewed the top 5 individuals listed on Angie's List for drywall service due to their reviews an "A" ratings. 3 of the 5 came back with estimates that were so high that I decided to call someone on the list that didn't have any reviews, but "drywall" was in the name of provider. Thank goodness. Dan's bid for the original work came in at 1/3 of any other and still beat the other 2 I was considering. They did a great job and did everything I asked. Very easy to work with. I had some electrical issues and he hooked me up with an electrician that also did great work, was reasonably priced and came over asap to get the job done. Would definitely use them again."
You can usually tell if you have plaster or drywall by touch (plaster is harder, colder, and smoother than drywall) or by tapping on it (drywall sounds hollow, plaster does not). If you still cannot tell, peek under an outlet cover and check the cut edges. The rough edges show the composition of the wall. You will see either drywall (two paper sheets sandwiching gypsum material) or only plaster material (no paper sheets).
Yes, it matters which side of drywall you use. One side is smooth, and the other is rough. The smooth side should be facing outward, toward the room, while the rough side should be hidden and facing the studs and framing of the house. The smooth side will be easier to apply tape, joint compound, and, later, paint to.
Technically speaking, you can use drywall primer over plasters. However, oil-based primers work the most effectively on wall plasters. Meanwhile, water-based primers work just as well with drywalls. Nowadays, there are also universal primers suitable for drywall and plaster. Overall, you will be fine as long as you are using a trustworthy brand.
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.
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.
