"I hired USA insulation to insulate my home, and I could not have been happier. From the first time I called, and spoke to Liz to get a quote, to the finished product. I was nothing but satisfied. All my questions were answered. They were efficient, clean, and professional!"

They explained what they were going to do, answered all my questions, and did a thorough job. I definitely recommend Home Performance Professionals!!! Mark & Sharon P. Niagara Falls, NY"

"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."

"We hired Energsmart Insulations to insulate 2 sides of our house because of some rather loud neighbors. Their price was very reasonable, they even bumped our project date ahead of their schedule because of how loud they were. Once they started the project they found that all of our plywood between the siding and studs were beyond rotted. They even showed my wife and I that some of the siding was not even nailed to anything because of how bad the rot was. They could of easily just injected the insulation under the rotted plywood but they told us they do not feel comfortable doing that because it would all torn our when we reside. We decided not to do the installation because of the unforeseen rotting issues and I really appreciated their honestly. They could of just did the work, put the siding back on and we would never have known the extend of the problem. Once we get our house resided I would definitely go with this company to insulation our home."

"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."

"The company was very professional and did a good job for us. They are not cheap, but did offer a discount for a combo job for both gutters and insulation. Their crew was meticulous and did a very good job with clean-up after the work was completed."

"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

In framing, studs are placed at 16-inch intervals to coincide with the typical spacing of wall materials such as drywall or plywood. This spacing is called "on-center" and is necessary for maintaining structural stability and efficient use of materials. The 16-inch spacing also helps to distribute the weight evenly across the building's structure. For those looking to cut material costs and improve energy efficiency, 24-inch stud spacing can be employed through a method called "advanced framing". This requires careful planning and adherence to local building codes to ensure structural integrity.

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.

It’s highly recommended to use studs for a TV mount. The last thing you want is to be watching your favorite show when the TV falls off the wall. Studs are much stronger than drywall and quite a bit stronger than drywall anchors but, if you can’t find the studs or there simply aren’t any where you need them, you can use drywall anchors. It’s extremely important to make sure the anchors are rated for the load of the TV. We recommend using anchors that are rated far beyond the weight of whatever you’re hanging. Our suggestion is metal drywall toggle anchors. 

Drywall can be toxic to the environment and to humans in some cases. As drywall breaks down in a landfill and comes in contact with other organic chemicals, it can create hydrogen sulfide gas or leach into the groundwater. Additionally, the CDC recommends methods for controlling the inhalation of drywall dust when handled. While the common ingredients of drywall—gypsum, silica, and mica—are naturally occurring, they can cause irritation in some humans.

Very little. One inch of water can stain walls, warp wood, and create a perfect environment for mold growth. One to two inches of water can do significant damage to drywall, insulation, and electrical systems. Anything over that is considered an extensive flood, often resulting in severe structural damage.
