"We had a new roof installed on our Victorian house last winter, and the roofer told us that the very old insulation bats in our attic rafters did not allow for a proper vapor barrier, endangering the warranty of the new roof. The roofer referred us to an affiliated company that recommended removing all the old insulation bats and installing new insulation bats in the attic rafters with a proper vapor barrier. That would have been very costly and would done nothing at all to improve our level of insulation. Fortunately, I decided to consult with Acorn before going further, because they have a solid A rating on Angie's List (the 10% AL discount did not hurt either). I was impressed by Mike Sheehan's approach. He carefully measured the space between the old insulation and the rafters and concluded that there was a sufficient vapor barrier there. But he pointed out that the house was seriously under-insulated, as we already knew from our high heating bills. He recommended leaving the old insulation in place, blowing R-49 cellulose insulation into the attic floor, and installing insulation bats in attic crawl spaces that had no insulation. He said that the new insulation bats in the attic crawl spaces located in a semi-finished attic room would make our second-floor den (located directly beneath the semi-finished attic room) much warmer. After 35 years of suffering from the cold drafts in the den, I was skeptical to say the least, but I decided to go ahead with Mike's plan, which was about half as costly as the original roofing company's estimate for a great deal more insulation. The workers came and did the job on the appointed day in May.
We have central ac, and there was some improvement in our energy bill last summer, but nothing too extraordinary. But since Mike had told us that the real gains would come in the heating season, I decided to wait until the next winter to review Acorn in Angie's List. Well, this has been an exceptionally cold late autumn and winter so far in New Jersey, and the results have been truly amazing. For the first time in 35 years, our den is comfortable all the time, and the whole house is comfortable. The energy and cost savings have been dramatic. The heat just doesn't escape upward from the second floor anymore. Here is the most astonishing thing that happened. When the outside temperature got down to about 0 F. a few days ago (unheard of in this area), I heard a strange noise and realized that the central ac had gone on! The thermostat for the ac on the second floor was set to 76 or 77, and because the ground floor is not as tightly sealed now as the second floor, in the extreme cold the disparity between the thermostat for the house heat on the ground floor (set at 70 degrees) and the upstairs heat, normally about 1 or 2 degrees, had increased to 6 or 7 degrees because of the insulation!
In short, we could not be more pleased with the job that Acorn did or the investment that we made in insulation.

"We got a couple of estimates to spray the cellar sills where the house meets the foundation. We chose Foamcoinc because of the knowledge of the person that came and gave us an estimate...I think his name was Dave. He had some good ideas on how to spray and seal under the bay windows, left samples of the foam with us, and some more information. I thought that was great so I could make a more informed decision. Not to mention the 'R' value of the foam he would use was much higher than the other company's and he price matched the other company's price in his estimate! They showed up about a half hour early, which was slightly inconvenient. Thank goodness my husband was home since I just got out of the shower when the doorbell rang. They came in and went right to work. They did everything they said they were going to do and a bit more than expected. The thickness of the spray insulation was thicker than they specified and they were neat and clean! A great experience! Try them out for yourself! I will be calling them for when I am ready to do the attic."

"I have had a great experience with the services from Master Attic! I contacted the company, for an insulation installation service for my attic. Robert, and his team, were punctual and professional. They came on time, gave a brief consultation after reviewing the space, and completed the work in a timely matter. Not only did they install the insulation in to my attic efficiently, but they also cleaned and sanitized the place after, and removed any pests and rodents! Would highly recommend Master Attic, and Robert, to anyone who needs insulation services done! They were friendly, professional, and really cared about the quality of their work, and the safety of my home. They also went the extra mile, to clean up and make the space rodent-free! There have been no issues throughout the service. 5 STARS!"

"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!"

Drywall Insulation questions, answered by experts

You can plaster over regular drywall, but it's essential to prepare the surface properly. Before plastering, the drywall should be clean, free of dust, and any loose or peeling paint should be removed. Applying a primer specifically designed for plastering can improve adhesion. Some professionals recommend applying a base coat of plaster or joint compound to create a better surface for the plaster to adhere to. Proper preparation ensures a smooth and durable plaster finish over regular drywall.

Mudding drywall is a DIY-friendly project, but patience and practice are required for perfection. If you’re working in a highly visible area and want the best possible finish, hiring a professional drywaller is worth the cost. Pros have the tools and know-how to ensure a smooth surface with fewer sanding sessions and less cleanup.

While textured walls can elevate a space in many ways, there are a couple of downsides to consider. Namely, they’re hard to clean, and some textures fall out of fashion quickly. Make sure to consider all your options to find one you truly love before diving in. 

Whether you need a drywall anchor depends on the specifics of your project, particularly what you're hanging and where. You do not need a drywall anchor if you can screw or nail the object directly into a wooden stud, as the wood provides sufficient support and stability. However, if there are no studs in the location where you plan to hang the item, you should use drywall anchors to ensure it is securely supported. For very lightweight objects, like small pictures, adhesive picture hanging strips can be a suitable alternative to anchors.

Professionals mount TVs using specialized tools and knowledge of different wall materials, ensuring safe support.
