"So happy I went with USA Insulation. After learning about foam insulation, I knew it was the right option for my house. They insulated my walls and attic in a day and a half, and I could feel the difference right away."

"Evergreen was great from start to finish! The salesman, Chris, was super helpful in answering questions and the install crew was on time, efficient, and cleaned up after themselves. Highly recommend to anyone needing spray foam or any other type of insulation."

"The quality and professionalism demonstrated by Rich and his crew was exemplary. I was offered a modest but helpful military discount and it helped overall because i had both my attic and crawlspace insulated. The thermostat has not been touched since the install and the house maintains a cool 74 degrees easily. My energy bill has already gone down."

"Mike and Enrique showed up early and worked non-stop insulating my attic and my basement ceiling. I would recommend Farrell Holdings to anyone seeking to have insulation work done. Mike Morin explained exactly what he would be doing, before blowing the insulation in the attic he filled what he considered vulnerable or weak areas with a sealant. He did a pressure test before and after the application of the insulation to determine how well we would benefit from the added insulation. If you're looking for professionals this is the place to call."

"I was considering foam insulation for the last two years and got several quotes from different companies but it was always unaffordable till I came across NC foam Pros, the price was very affordable so I decided to try their service on rental home first , The process was smooth , promptly responded to my questions .Had same week appt, and the difference the foam insulation made was very noticeable, the house was old built in 1958 and barely kept heat now it feels very comfortable, so this week we gave them three more jobs and I will consider them for any future insulation job because I can Finally say I found a good deal without surprises"

Drywall Insulation questions, answered by experts

Yes, you can install drywall over plaster, but there are important factors to consider. While it can create a smooth, flat surface, it is often not the best approach. Installing drywall over plaster will increase the wall's thickness, which can cause issues with existing window and door frames that may no longer fit. You might also need to adjust power outlets to keep them accessible. A better, though more expensive, option is to remove the old plaster and lath entirely before installing new drywall. Drywalling directly over plaster seals in the old material, and if any problems arise later, you will need to remove both layers down to the structural beams for repairs. Given the potential complications, this job is best handled by professionals.

Whether it’s better to screw or glue drywall depends on your specific budget and project timeline. Professional drywall installers are more likely to use screws and fasteners than adhesives, but it takes longer. But if you are DIYing your drywall installation, glue is a perfectly fine choice if you’re willing to pay extra for adhesive.

The person’s skill will affect how many drywall sheets they can hang in one day. Some people can hang 10 or more sheets in a day, while others may only hang six or seven sheets. It also depends on the framing complexity since custom cutting and fitting the drywall can prolong the process.

Plaster itself has a higher R-value than drywall. However, there are other considerations surrounding plaster and insulation. As a general rule, it's easier to obtain consistency in insulating value and quality when working with drywall rather than plaster. Plaster walls often don't contain any insulation behind the wall covering by design, and careful evaluation is necessary when choosing to add it.

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.
