"The staff at Home Insulation Experts, Inc are very knowledgeable and willing to explain how and why certain methods/processes are used.

We will ABSOLUTELY hire them again for any insulation needs"
"I can’t say enough nice things about Jersey State Insulation. Sebastian and his crew are absolutely amazing. They work very hard and are very conscientious of your home. When they did the insulation on my home they were very careful when moving things around and cleaning up after the job was done. Sebastian is very friendly and made every effort to explain everything and make sure I was happy with the work being done. I met with other insulation companies, but none seemed nearly as competent as Jersey State. The others wanted to charge me a lot more for something I didnt think I needed. The others though my problem was only the attic. Sebastian inspected the attic and said there was nothing it needed. Other contractors didn’t even want to attempt blow-in insulation, but Sebastian and his crew did it and the result is fantastic"
"Can I give them a 10 for value for the money? Dave, the owner, was great. Unbeatable price and they did a great job. I'm actually shocked by what a difference it makes. My house had no insulation in the walls and the furnace ran constantly. Now when I touch the walls, instead of being ice cold, they are room temperature, and the furnace barely runs."
"Hired Retro Foam of Philadelphia to install foam insulation on 3 sides of my townhouse on Wildwood Crest. They did a great job, the team of Frank, Mike, Kevin and Keith were very respectful of our property, They were very friendly and mannerly during the process. when they left, you did not even know they were at my home. Great Job Bob/Jackie Marnie"
"I have only glowing things to say about our experience using Home Genius Exteriors. From the thorough initial estimate and comprehensive inspection of the worksite and what the job would entail to the final bit of blown-in insulation, our multi-team project was completed to our satisfaction in a timely and professional manner. In the course of four days, we had a new roof, new trim, new gutters, and new insulation. Each part of the project required a different team. Each crew finished their task within the projected timeframe. Home Genius coordinated everything, including ordering and delivering the materials and arranging for the delivery and removal of the dumpster. Thanks to our Project Coordinator Ivan, every step in the process went smoothly. He arranged for workers to be at our home on consecutive days: we did not have any time in between steps waiting for availability of the next team. Ivan kept us informed of progress at every step of the way."

Applying plaster to a wall will usually cost between $2 and $10per square foot for both the material and labor. The cost will vary based on the quality of the plaster you’re using and whether or not prep work is required before the work begins. Wall prep can add up to about 10% to your total costs. Plastering exterior walls can be more expensive in many cases because they are taller and require scaffolding and safety equipment.
While certain types of textured walls can seem dated (looking at you, popcorn), textured walls are a common sight in both older and more modern homes. The main reason textured walls may be here to stay is that they are an excellent way to hide minor imperfections on a wall and give it a finished appearance. Some homeowners think a coat of paint on drywall is a bit industrial-looking. However, that look works perfectly in modern home design.
You can put drywall mud over paint to even out the surface or entirely resurface it. Sand the surface with 280-grit sandpaper, vacuum the debris and dust with a shop vac, and clean it with a slightly damp cloth. Allow the surface to dry. Apply drywall primer, especially if you’re skim-coating an entire wall. Apply the right type of drywall mud over the surface and smooth it with a trowel. Allow the layer to cure fully, then sand it before applying another layer or painting it.
Yes, taping inside corners is a critical step in the drywall installation process. Properly taping inside corners is essential for achieving a professional look, and an installation that resists cracking and maintains its integrity over time. Taping the corners involves the application of a joint compound along the seam where two drywall pieces meet. This process provides reinforcement, conceals the seam, and prevents future gaps or cracks from developing.
Drying alone can take 1 to 4 hours to dry to the touch per plaster layer, but some types of plaster take several hours longer to dry. However, this doesn’t mean the job is done because plaster doesn’t fully harden until it cures, which can take a few days to a couple of weeks. It may take even longer if you’re building a new, pretty thick plaster wall. Allow the plaster to cure before painting it.
