"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."

"So far, I'm very impressed. It's a really big building.  Bats and squirrels have been a big problem. The crew came a number of times. They'll return to finish up over the next couple of weeks. In the meantime, everybody's been pleasant, professional, and punctual. I got follow-up calls to see if there were any concerns or questions. They gave me the best price out of 3 quotes.

Drywall Insulation questions, answered by experts

All plaster walls will crack over time due to normal house settling and expansion and contraction from temperature and moisture changes. Small, thin hairline cracks are generally not serious and are mostly a cosmetic issue. However, larger or more significant cracks can indicate structural problems.

Here's how to tell the difference:

  • Cosmetic Cracks: Cracks that are 0.5 cm (0.2 inches) or thinner are typically cosmetic.

  • Structural Cracks: Cracks wider than 0.5 cm, excessive or deep cracks, multiple cracks in the same area, or cracks that span around corners can signify a structural or foundation issue. Cracks along the joints where walls meet the ceiling also warrant attention.

For cracks wider than 0.5 cm, structural repair is needed. If a crack is 2.5 cm (1 inch) or wider, or if you notice any signs of a structural problem, it is best to contact a plaster repair professional to assess the damage.

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.

It’s not a good idea to plaster over broken plaster (unless by broken you’re referring to cracked, in which case that’s perfectly fine). However, broken plaster can be a sign of a larger underlying issue like foundation damage or severe damage to the lath holding up the plaster, so it’s worth investigating before you simply plaster on top of the damage.

The best tool for skim coating drywall is a skim coating blade, which can smooth out joint compound in wide stretches. While you could use a smaller drywall knife for skim coating, the smaller size means it’ll take longer to smooth out each section. Instead, consider investing in a skim coating blade for the quickest application.

Drywall texture refers to the techniques used on the surface of drywall to create a pleasing visual or tactile effect. Depending on your desired outcome, drywall texture can range from incredibly subtle to a focal point of a room. Textures play a significant role in interior design and are an excellent and relatively cost-effective way to change the feeling of a room.
