"I thought I had contracted to have about 1/4 of crawspace completely replaced with new insulation. However they replaced part of it and tacked up the rest that was sagging. Maybe my fault that he did not understand I wanted that section completely torn out and for him to replace that section. They did do an excellent job. They also added blown in the attic and added some batt insulation to naked walls in garage. I would recommend them."

"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"

"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."

I highly recommend Koala Insulation and I will be using them again for my next project."

Drywall Insulation questions, answered by experts

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.

You should do a little bit of sanding between adding coats of mud. Knock down any ridges or significantly imperfect areas through sanding, which should help you apply the next coat of mud smoothly. If your first coat of mud is pretty smooth after it dries, a quick sanding is all you’ll need. Don’t forget to wipe away any dust after each sanding process.

You can put certain types of plaster over other types, but doing so isn't always the best idea. For example, putting a coat of gypsum over lime plaster is possible, but doing so will limit the lime plaster's breathability and potentially affect its performance.

Since cement plaster tends to leave a textured surface, no matter how much you smooth it, some people prefer to use gypsum plaster as a topcoat over cement plaster, creating a smoother surface.

It’s less costly to drywall a fireplace than shiplapping it since material costs are higher for shiplap. However, if you’re DIYing the project, shiplap is less expensive since you won’t have to pay for labor. With drywall, getting a smooth finish is difficult unless you’re a pro. Shiplap is ideal for an accent wall or unique space, such as around a fireplace, since it adds texture and gives off a cozy vibe.

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.
