"After a year and a half with my crawlspace encapsulation everything is going good! I was very nit-picky about many details and everyone I dealt with was courteous, professional and communicative, had 1 little issue that was immediately resolved and the techs that got it completed did a great job. I was very pleased with the way they set up a barrier around my pool to prevent any debris from getting into it too"

"The estimator/salesperson Jeremy was excellent. On time, knowledgeable, understood the issues we had and spent a lot of time to recommend the best solution. The install crew of Shawn H and Dustin were prompt, professional and efficient. I would recommend this company and will use them again for my insulation needs."

"My family and I have been living in an RV for over a year now, due to hurricane Florence. It has been a nightmare dealing with shady, lazy and difficult tradesmen but doing business with Mitch has been the easiest thing in this whole process. I called him on a Friday to insulate my entire home and he was completely done by the following Tuesday, before lunch time. He s extremely friendly and an excellent communicator. He kept me in the loop the entire time and showed up when he said he was going to. He does quick work but he is very proficient and he actually cleaned up after himself, which seems to be completely unheard of. We called around to multiple businesses for spray insulation and Mitch is by far the BEST price you will find out there. He even gave me a really good discount because I think he s just a nice guy. I highly recommend Mitch. He will make your life easier in regards to upgrading your home."

On the day the work was to be done, I received updates for estimated arrival, and when they finished they cleaned up as if they were never there. I highly recommend Koala Insulation and I will be using them again for my next project."

Drywall Insulation questions, answered by experts

Although they have similar applications, spackle and joint compound are not the same. Their primary differences lie in their composition, consistency, and ideal use cases.

Spackle is composed of gypsum and binding agents, making it thicker than joint compound. It dries quickly and is easy to sand, which makes it ideal for small wall repair projects like filling nail holes or patching minor damage.

Joint compound, also known as drywall mud, consists of limestone and gypsum. It is primarily used for large-scale projects, such as taping and finishing the seams on newly installed drywall. It tends to shrink more than spackle and can be more difficult to spread.

While both products can be used to fill small depressions and cracks, spackle cannot replace joint compound for taping and mudding new drywall. Conversely, you can often use joint compound for small patching jobs typically done with spackle.

Wet-sanding and dry-sanding each have pros and cons. Dry-sanding is less messy, so it’s a good option if you’re trying to minimize dust (for example, if you’re sanding an occupied home or working with particularly dry or dusty drywall mud). However, dry-sanding is quicker because you don’t have to keep rinsing a sponge or wait for it to dry before painting.

You should wait at least 24 hours for drywall mud to dry before sanding or applying another coat. However, the exact drying time depends on several factors, including the thickness of the application, room temperature, humidity, and the type of compound used. Thicker layers, or projects in high humidity, may require 48 hours or more. Lightweight compounds tend to dry faster than heavier, all-purpose ones. You'll know the mud is ready when it feels completely dry and firm to the touch and has changed to a consistent light color. Sanding too early can cause smudging or gouges, so patience is essential for a smooth finish.

Costs depend on damage size, labor rates, and whether additional services like painting are required.

Walls should be as smooth as possible before applying peel-and-stick wallpaper. Although you technically can apply wallpaper on textured walls, the peel-and-stick variety won’t last long without a clean, smooth surface for the adhesive to stick to. If you have textured walls, consult a pro about removing the textured finish before moving forward with wallpaper.
