"What an amazing experience! It is very rare to find a business with a group of people who are as knowledgeable, personable, professional, and reliable as the family who owns The Climate Chief. I am one of those customers who really do their homework, from buying toasters to installing insulation and everything in between. I also ask a LOT of questions. (Not all vendors love that!) It took me a couple of weeks to find a company that could provide the exact solution I needed for my home. I use the word solution because they did not just say, **Here is the insulation we sell. This is the cost** They actually took the time to evaluate my entire attic and home to find the combination of things that made the most **big picture** sense. I have never received such a comprehensive written proposal from ANY other company in all the years I have lived Upstate. They also gave me a list of add-on options and explained the combinations. I could take all of them or none of them. At no time was there any **upsell** technique or the famous **let me call my manager** nonsense that you often get from service providers. They contacted me with a detailed email the night before the start date to let me know when they would be arriving, who would be on the team, exactly what they would be doing, and how long it would take. Wow. It was so refreshing to communicate with professionals who answered all of my questions and actually welcomed them before the project began and during the installation. I had a specialized attic project that required a lot of expertise. I felt very confident in their abilities for the entire length of the project and would highly recommend Mark {father, founder), Gary {initial consultation/evaluation, son), Bill (job foreman, another son), and the whole team at The Climate Chief. In addition, even though their proposal was much more comprehensive than any other, the quote was not only fair but extremely competitive. I feel so strongly about their work ethic that I authorized the company to give my contact info to potential customers. It is so nice to find a trustworthy local business that I can share with others in the community."

"I was really impressed with the quality and professionalism we received from Correct Energy. They gave us a fair price and performed the work almost immediately after the consultation. The end result was unbelievable too. The second floor is usually so hot but after the spray foam even without AC the temperature change was drastic, and it's far less noisy as well. I was also impressed with how well they taped off the walls, floors, and electrical to cut down on the mess afterwards. I didn't have to do any cleanup at all. Would highly recommend this company and we will be using their services in the future for subsequent projects."

"Overall, excellent. We did encounter a few problems with the spray in wall insulation since the original sheet rock was just nailed in. A few sections bowed into the room. This is actually pretty common with old houses. The problem was quickly corrected, the walls properly secured, the insulation reinstalled (blown in) and the job completed. In modifications to a home, it is not always the problems you encounter, it is how you deal with them. Advance had the problem identified with a resolution that was completed within a day. Very pro-active!"

"We have had them for about three years and we have also been very satisfied. They have been responsive to us. Once we had a snake in the basement and I did not want to deal with it, I called them. They could not help me, but they referred me to somebody else who did."

"Justin is a true professional and his crew go above and beyond to complete the job. While spray foam insulation is not cheap I feel that the job I received will pay dividends years to come. Justin is deeply committed to his community and I work beside him every year as volunteers to build our ice palace before winter carnival. His ethics are shown thru this work and it translate into his business. Thank you. dave"

"From the moment we met nick we felt comfortable. After my gf got taken for money from a contractor we were a little hesitant on trusting anyone again.. Nick gave us a quote for the job that we were very happy with. And insured us we would be very happy. And wow were we, nicks crew was amazing , friendly and cleaned up everything when do e. Can't say enough about nick and his team. This is how a business is supposed to be run. Don't even bother calling anyone else. They did an amazing job on our building and more importantly? Welcomed us like we were family during the process... 100 thumbs up. Chris and Christina"

"R-Factor Insulation Company does very good work. They insulated my crawl space and did a wonderful job. The owner Mr. Knapp was very professional and came out and gave a free estimate on the work. The job estimate was right on the price with no cost over runs at the completion of the
job. I had other estimates that were much higher on the same work to be done."

Drywall Insulation questions, answered by experts

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.

Technically speaking, you can use drywall primer over plasters. However, oil-based primers work the most effectively on wall plasters. Meanwhile, water-based primers work just as well with drywalls. Nowadays, there are also universal primers suitable for drywall and plaster. Overall, you will be fine as long as you are using a trustworthy brand.

The cost to texture drywall depends on whether you want to do the work yourself or hire a professional. The cost of the drywall mud is far lower than labor costs for applying it. The labor cost to spray drywall compound onto a wall is between $0.80 and $1.50 per square foot, while you’ll pay between $1.50 and $2 per square foot for the labor to apply the texture by hand.

A jigsaw is commonly used to cut holes in drywall. It offers versatility and precision, making it suitable for creating circular or irregular openings. When equipped with the right blade, a jigsaw can swiftly and cleanly cut through drywall, making it a good choice for DIY projects.

You’ll get better results if you soundproof the whole wall. A hole through which light can pass can also let sound waves in. Acoustical or silicone sealant applied to holes and cracks can block enough sound to make a difference. However, the more layers absorb vibrations and slow or stop sound waves, the less noise you’ll have.
