"I would recommend Home Insulation Experts, Inc for insulation services. They came to my house installed the insulation we needed and did a great job."
"Acorn did a great job insulating my home. John explained the entire process and highlighted all the areas of focus. The crew arrived when they said and were very thorough and respectful. There was alot of dust, which was expected and his team covered as much as they could to help with the clean up. It's been over a week now and I have been monitoring heat usage thru Nest. There is a clear difference in the number of hours a day the furnace is on. I highly recommend John and the Acorn team for insulation work."
"RetroFoam of Michigan deserves more than five stars. The representative who gave me an estimate was prompt and professional. The office staff who called to tell me installers were ahead of schedule was kind and courteous as I answered during a busy day at work. The crew who came to insulate my garage was extraordinary. They made sure my garage was left clean. They even mopped the garage floor before they left! The crew leader explained the process of insulating with foam and exactly how the holes in my walls would be patched before the team left. I am an educator of 30 years and a licensed builder. I've remodeled and flipped homes and have rental units. I'm used to swinging a hammer alongside others. This company is made up of hard-working people who charge a fair price and do exceptional work. I have advice for those that run the company - take care of your installation crews! They are exceptional! If you've read this far and are interested in having your house/garage insulated give them a call now. You will be happy you did. Now...I'm looking forward to enjoying a warm man-cave garage on cold nights!"
"After an excellent evaluation and discussion, the Acorn specialist recommended that I not go forward with the project. He felt that the gains from insulating would not justify the expense, and I would have to disrupt my neighbors' units to get at some areas, which is not possible."

"I highly recommend this company for any type of insulation work. The salesman gave a very thorough presentation on all the available options for me, along with a rough estimate at the end of the meeting. I went with the option of removing & installing new rolled insulation (R30). The crew arrived on the scheduled installation date and got right to work. Sealed off everything properly, removed the old insulation, cleaned & cleared out the space, and then installed the new insulation. It was all completed in about 4 hours. I was very impressed."

You should always hang drywall from the top down. Starting at the top makes it easier to create a straight, tight line between the ceiling and the wall. Any gaps that occur will be at the bottom, where they are easier to manage. You can either cut the bottom piece of drywall to fit the remaining space or cover the gap with baseboard trim. Additionally, starting at the top is physically easier, as you won't have to fit the top sheet into a tight space between the lower sheet and the ceiling, or try to balance the upper sheets on the lower ones while securing them.
Although they are used for similar tasks, spackle and joint compound are not the same. Joint compound, also known as drywall mud, consists of limestone and gypsum and is primarily used for large-scale projects like taping and finishing seams on new drywall. Spackle is composed of gypsum and binding agents, making it a thicker compound best suited for small wall repairs like filling nail holes or cracks, as it dries quickly and is easy to sand. For small repairs, either product can be suitable. However, you can use joint compound for small jobs in place of spackle, but you cannot use spackle for large-scale taping and mudding projects.
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.
You should start looking for a drywall installer by choosing a local company with positive online reviews and ratings with the Better Business Bureau (BBB). Next, confirm that the professional is properly licensed using Angi’s contractor licensing tool, and ask the installer if they are fully insured. It’s a good idea to ask for recent customer references and call them to get their honest opinion about the contractor and their work. You can also ask the installer if they guarantee their work or provide a workmanship warranty.
Yes, a one-story house can have a load-bearing wall. The load-bearing walls in a single-story home are usually the exterior walls. If the house has a basement with exposed walls, the arrangement of the beams can help indicate what walls are load-bearing.
