"We had been living in our house for 5 years and although the kitchen was a new addition, every winter my wife & I had noticed how noticeably the temperature differentiated especially after the winter of 2014/15. And because it was a dirt floor with some wood and old construction debris strewn about. I was not so keen on staying down there. In doing my own investigation there was some piping and insulation under floor. So when investigating estimates we called a number of "green" companies. Out of the three companies that came, only Frank Petrullo with Eco Green Solutions, noticed the mold and a water leak coming from fridge line. He took the time to show me where the water was coming, how mold had proliferated on the wood floor joists and beams. The dirt floor was somewhat moist and light was visible from outside along foundation rim contributing to the mold and moisture in crawl space. He explained each of our options and detailed the steps in sections of each estimate. We opted to have a plumber fix the water leak, then franks crew came in, cleaned up the mold, then layed down the crawl space membrane, finally insulating floor & rim joist. All in under two days. The crew showed up on time, left the open sections of the house clean, and we immediately noticed a difference in kitchen and rest of house. Walking around bare foot in kitchen is more comfortable, the kitchen is less noisy, and house humidity is maintained. "
"They arrived timely and worked with an average of four people for one full week. I had the impression that their quote underestimated the size of this job, especially the dense packing of all exterior walls. They worked extremely cleanly in comparison to all other contractors that had worked for us before. I would contact them again if we had another insulation job to be done.
"Joey and his team are terrific. This is the second time I have hired Federated to come and do insulation. The first time was approximately 2008 and it was to insulate my roof. This time when Joey returned, I mentioned in passing as we were talking about the work I needed done in my basement that I still got some drafts in the top floor. He immediately offered to go up with his infrared camera and see if they missed spots the first time. He acknowledged that because I have a flat roof that slopes in the front, they weren't able to get to certain areas from the top of the roof and offered to come back (at no cost) to insulate the parts of the roof that they missed the first time -- but this time from inside through the ceiling. I hired them to do the basement job, and good to his word, he and his team started on my top floor and spent a considerable amount of time filling the ceiling with insulation and then patching the area to match the existing stucco. Next, they started the basement job. I stood by to see how they worked and am very impressed. They are a good team with clearly many years working together. I asked if they could create certain holes to fill insulation in areas that I suspected there might be gaps. They were willing, ready and able to work with me and comply with my requests. Toward the end, Joey asked that I look at a job he just completed in the gas room (I wanted gaps filled with insulation to prevent gas from coming through my floorboards into my living room). He had done a good job, but I saw some additional areas that were of concern to me (not necessarily a problem, just being a little OCD) and asked that he address it. Even through everything was already back on the truck, he complied. The results? I am very pleased with the service, quality of the materials, professionalism of staff, and Joey's expertise. One additional thing, Joey identified a problem in my boiler room that he suggested I fix immediately. I called my local chimney guy who said that Joey's assessment of the problem was 100% correct, and the chimney guys came to fix the issue at the same time that Joey and his men were here. They were able to coordinate nicely, work on their respective areas, and left the place neat and clean. I was told that the work performed had a life-time guarantee, and I believe it. So, I don't usually go on and on this effusively about work done in my home, but when someone goes above and beyond, I like to recognize them for their efforts. Job well done, Joey. Many thanks you and your team! "

Beadboard is a decorative element and lacks the structural integrity of drywall. It cannot hold much weight and is not meant to be used as an insulator or moisture barrier, like drywall is. In almost all cases, beadboard is placed over an existing wall surface which, in modern days, is usually drywall, but decades ago could have been wood paneling.
Regular dusting, occasional repainting, and avoiding harsh scrubbing preserve the finish.
You can drywall an unheated garage because the material handles cold temperatures perfectly well. There are no risks or downsides to installing drywall in a garage that is not heated, and the material stands up to moisture and other elements quite well. Drywall will protect your unheated garage's electric wires and cables and add fire protection. However, for effective bonding, you should install drywall at a temperature of 55 degrees Fahrenheit or higher.
Plaster walls typically last between 30 and 70 years, but depending on the quality of the materials and the moisture levels in the building, they can last for over 100 years. With expert application and consistent maintenance, plaster can even last for centuries. To extend its lifespan, it is important to have the plaster professionally installed, address any water damage promptly, and repair small cracks as they appear. Regular inspections by a professional can help identify and address concerning cracks before they become significant issues.
Most load-bearing walls are exterior, though they can also be interior.
