"I recently had Home Shield install new insulation in my home, and I couldn't be happier with their work! From start to finish, they were professional, punctual, and efficient. They arrived right on time and completed the job in a timely manner without cutting corners. What really stood out to me was how clean they left everything. They made sure to clean up thoroughly after themselves, which is always appreciated. Additionally, their expertise was evident—they not only knew exactly what needed to be done but also took the time to explain what steps we could take to keep our home warm during the colder months. Overall, their excellent service and attention to detail exceeded my expectations. I highly recommend them"

"Great. Have had this service provided by other technicians previously, only to have the results last a few months. Cool Comfort took time to explore the potential root causes, made the necessary adjustments and the benefits have been superior to times past."

"Staff was very nice to work with. I had to schedule this around other work that had to be completed first and they were very understanding and flexible in getting the attic insulation scheduled. Excellent communication thru the whole process from estimate to installation. The insulation installers were on time and super nice and professional. It was 97 degrees (feels like was 106) the day the insulation was blown in the attic. They worked had, but safely and the finished product was great. It looked like a bed of clouds in my attic space. Reasonably priced as well. I will definitely call again for any insulation work needed."

Drywall Insulation questions, answered by experts

If your home was built before the 1940s and was not remodeled in the past 50 or so years, you probably have plaster walls. Aside from assuming, there are some practical ways to tell if you have plaster walls, including the following: If you knock on the wall and it feels solid, not hollow, if you can’t insert a thumbtack easily, if there are cracks that look like spiderwebs, or if your home has curved, arched, or swirled walls, doorways, or window openings.

If you have an unfinished basement or attic, you could examine the backs of any finished walls to check, too.

While a normal moisture level for drywall is between 5% and 12%, replacement is recommended if you get consistent readings above 17%. At this level, the drywall is likely too compromised by extensive moisture damage to be considered safe. You can replace either the entire sheet or just the affected section. If you are unsure after a visual inspection, it is best to have a contractor or water restoration provider use a professional moisture meter to get an accurate reading.

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.

A nail in drywall cannot hold very much—usually only a few pounds. A nail in a stud can add support and hold around 20 pounds. If you are trying to hang something heavier, get some help from drywall anchors—toggle bolts are very strong and able to withstand more weight.

Whether you apply the drywall mesh before or after drywall mud depends on the type of patch it is. For self-adhesive patches, you’ll put the patch down first and then coat it with mud. Mesh patches that are not self-adhesive will require you to put mud down first and then press the mesh into it, followed by additional coats of mud.
