"the insulation they recommended saved me about 5000kw a year. the amount of money i am saving is far more the insulation payment on my Eversource bill. No money cost to me out of pocket and my electric bill dropped quite a bit. best move i ever did."
"I contacted Discount Insulation to help determine why two of our bedrooms were so cold in the winter. Stu was very professional and was able to schedule a complimentary inspection that very afternoon. It turns out the original, 1956 insulation in the attic was mostly deteriorated and actually gone in some places, so we decided to move forward with a full attic, cellulose-blown insulation. In addition to the insulation, Stu also built a raised platform for our storage boxes (insulated underneath), wrapped the chimney to make sure there was no air seepage from below, covered the recessed light casings with fire-retardant covers, and built a removable, draft-proof cover for the house fan. The job took most of the day and was done efficiently, taking care to minimize the dust with plastic sheeting at the attic entrance and floor coverings throughout the house. They conscientiously cleaned up to perfection when the job was finished. My experience was very positive with Discount Insulation. They are courteous, mindful and respectful, as well as honest and trustworthy. I am very happy with my new R40 insulated attic and look forward to warmer bedrooms and lower heating bills in the winter."

If you already have plaster walls and ceilings, adding new plaster costs $2 to $10 per square foot. For an average-sized room, that would come out to $1,200 to $10,000. However, the cost to replace plaster with drywall is higher—running between $720 and $1,250 for a 10-by-8-foot wall or ceiling (not including drywall finishing).
Costs depend on damage size, labor rates, and whether additional services like painting are required.
While it’s most common to sand plaster dry, it is possible to wet-sand plaster, too. Doing so can reduce the amount of plaster dust released into the air and make it easier to work in smaller, more delicate areas (such as around wall trim). However, some people find that wet sanding leads to more imperfections, which is why larger walls are more often dry sanded to ensure an even finish.
Through expert matching of texture and paint for an invisible repair.
You can put certain types of plaster over other types, but doing so isn't always the best idea. For example, putting a coat of gypsum over lime plaster is possible, but doing so will limit the lime plaster's breathability and potentially affect its performance.
Since cement plaster tends to leave a textured surface, no matter how much you smooth it, some people prefer to use gypsum plaster as a topcoat over cement plaster, creating a smoother surface.
