"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."

"Chester did a remodel on our master bathroom. The results were excellent. Chester helped with the design & planning, making recommendations of things that would work & highlighting things to stay away from. He was able to suggest a number of local suppliers to visit to get ideas and once we selected our choices he priced everything out and advised us on items that we could look at to adjust the final price without sacrificing quality or the design. Chester was accurate with his estimate vs final price & schedule; he also freely advised me on many things around the house that he was not working on. There was a minor problem at the end of the project and Chester was very accommodating in fixing it. Furthermore, Chester is very personable and a pleasure to deal with. Should we undertake anymore projects in the future, we will certainly use Chester. Therefore, I highly recommend Chester Bachert for your project.

Drywall Insulation questions, answered by experts

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.

Drywall repair is typically completed within a day, depending on damage extent.

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. 

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.

Yes, it is possible to rewire a house without removing the drywall, but this doesn’t work in all homes. You can pull out old wires and insert new ones if you have access to the wiring system via the ceiling or through a crawl space. Some pros can also use a magnetic kit to fish the old wire out of the wall through a hole cavity and install the new wires. Just keep in mind that doing this is less stable than removing drywall, as you won’t be able to staple the wires into the framing.
