"The price was $2,575 lower than the same work estimate from another company. The work actually took two days. They covered the tubing outside the house with a grey covering to match my siding so it would blend in the way I requested. They listened to my concerns and answered all my questions. They gave me two options on where I wanted to choose to place the outside unit. I am very happy with the quietness of the units compared to my old window a/c's. The units are very powerful and can be adjusted any way you like. Since they're wall mounted they are space savers. Plus, they can heat too. I am happy with the work done and wish I had done it years ago. The two men installing were very professional and courteous. I will be using them again for other work, such as insulation, etc."

"They did a whole rebuild in one day , I had 4to 7ft of blow foam On each wall and ceiling of my attic they tore it out and put a whole New roof plus ventilation in a day! I was so impressed they were kind they even patched where my roof was leaking since my apt was a week or so out. I worked with Micheal Benaquist who was absolutely phenomenal. He made me feel safe and secure and was knowledgeable on any questions I asked. From financial options to helping me understand the roofing materials. I would recommend them to anyone. They are worth the extra few bucks!!!"

"They weren't too bad but I think they could have done a better job. They did a couple of different jobs. I own rental property but all the 3 buildings are on the same piece of property where I live at. So far it seems they've done the trick as far as solving problems like pipes freezing out, that kind of stuff. Unfortunately my house itself can't be insulated any more than it already is but what I was trying to get at, like trying to get rid of dross and making sure that doors seal up well, things like that, I think they could have done a little bit better. If their prices are as reasonable as right now, I'd probably use them again. They could have tried harder to insulate my apartment. There are places they could have done it because we had a section of the house redone. Our kitchen was remodeled and they could have done it but they didn't. They could have been more attentive to detail. My house is not a new house but its also not a real old house either, it was built in the 40's so something needed to be looked at to make sure that the draft was kept out not just from the windows and walls that were insulated but also the door, the door jambs, making sure the door fits tight and all that kind of thing."

"Mark was very professional and gave a complete explanation of the estimate and work involved. while only one man showed up on the date scheduled for insulation, he completed the exterior walls foam insulation work including the interior basement rim in the day as promised and was very courteous and thorough. I have noticed quite an improvement in the warmth of my home and especially since we have had 2 very cold weeks since Christmas. negative degrees! I am very pleased with the company and the work."

"The job was completed in a timely manner and exceeded my expectations. I was planning to apply two coats of spackling myself, but it only needed one coat saving me time. I also got good advise for techniques to make my job easy. I would hire them again for any drywall work or other home improvements for that matter."

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.

Yes, it matters which side of drywall you use. One side is smooth, and the other is rough. The smooth side should be facing outward, toward the room, while the rough side should be hidden and facing the studs and framing of the house. The smooth side will be easier to apply tape, joint compound, and, later, paint to.

Some textures are easier than others to DIY, but the short answer is yes, you can absolutely texture walls yourself. You’ll need certain materials, like a trowel or paint sprayer, but the most important things you’ll need are patience and time. DIYing wall texture can save money and be a fun, messy project, but homeowners need to know that adding texture to a wall isn’t a quick project. 

Whether you can reuse a drywall anchor depends on its type, material, and how it is removed. Plastic anchors, such as expansion or self-drilling types, are generally considered single-use because they are designed to expand and are likely to break or become deformed upon removal. Metal anchors, like toggle bolts, are more durable and can often be reused if they are not damaged during extraction. However, with toggle bolts, the toggle mechanism can fall inside the wall when the bolt is removed, making it difficult to retrieve. If an anchor is damaged or must be cut for removal, it cannot be reused regardless of its material.

The short answer is yes, a sagging plaster ceiling is dangerous. Sagging plaster on a wall is something you should fix immediately, but it isn’t a major concern. If the same type of sagging occurs on a ceiling, however, you could be in danger of your ceiling falling in large chunks. When plaster sags, it loses its strength and ability to hold itself up. The bonds that hold it together are strong, though, so if a sagging area falls, it will take large pieces down with it.
