"They arrived on time, it took about 2.5 hours, there is at least 18 inches or more of insulation, and I cannot wait to see the difference in the temperature in the house! Next weekend will be to do blown in insulation in the walls! Many thanks to owner Mike DePasquale and Energy Consultant Kevin Sweeney!"

Torsten Hansen has the patience of a saint.  As I was considering my options with other companies, I bombarded him with a multitude of questions which he answered thoroughly and in a timely manner.

His price was the best.  



 I have one complaint.  I have a bedroom above an unheated garage.  We removed the old drywall and fiberglass insulation which was riddled with squirrel mess.  We also added air conditioning to the house.  There are heating/air conditioning ducts running at the side of one garage wall and across 3 areas of the garage ceiling. The HVAC contractor said to make sure those were well insulated or humid air would condense on the ducts and damage the new drywall.  I thought that foam would be the best option.

Pure Seal did a really good job of insulating the side vents with high density foam. I had the ceilings and walls done in medium density foam.  But, they left the bottom halves of the ducts across the ceiling unfoamed.  In all but a few spots there was a good 2 inches or more space from the bottom of the vent to the end of the joist.  I measured it . Torsten went out and looked at it from the ground and said there was nothing they could do.  He said if I was worried about condensing water dripping onto the underside of the drywall when the air was on, I could staple some plastic over the areas.  Not a good solution.

 

I tried to foam the vents myself with Great Stuff, but it would not stick to the horizontal surface of the ceiling ducts.  It kept falling off.  So I wound up ripping the vapor barrier off of some fiberglass insulation and tapping it up in the cavity below the ceiling vents.  I then covered the fiberglass with reflectix stapled to the joists.  I told Torsten what I did and he thanked me for taking care of it but stuck by his decision that they could not have done anything.

 

I was disappointed because this was one of the main reasons I wanted foam. 

 



They also cut a wire in trimming the foam but he did offer to pay to fix that. My electrician was doing something else for us so he did not charge us.  That kind of stuff happens and I would not fault him for that but they should have caught it when they inspected their job instead of me having to tell them about it.

"We purchased the Angie's list deal of $250 for $600 of blown-in insulation. Sean was responsive and came to the house to check it out. We wanted to address a lot of cold air inflow was coming from an attic space on the 2nd floor of our home. They ended up adding some insulation and vapor barriers in the attic space, and we also paid another $200 to add some insulation in our basement where Sean thought there was a need. Overall very professional and helpful looking at lots of spaces across our house to opine on what would be most beneficial to us. We have noticed a big difference on the 2nd floor - it's a lot warmer up there."

Drywall Insulation questions, answered by experts

Which style of corner bead you choose—whether metal or paper-faced—depends on your preference and if you’re comfortable using metal-cutting tools and a hammer. Metal bead offers superior strength and durability but its installation is slightly more involved. We’d say for most cases, it’s better to use metal bead but if you’re not comfortable working with metal, paper-faced bead will work just fine. 

Both plaster and drywall are durable wall finishes, but they differ significantly in installation, cost, performance, and aesthetics.

Installation & Cost: Drywall installation is faster and more affordable, typically costing $1.50 to $3 per square foot. It uses premade sheets, making it a more accessible DIY project. Plastering is a labor-intensive craft that requires specialized skills, pushing costs to $2 to $10 per square foot. It involves applying a wet paste over a lath framework.

Durability & Performance: Plaster is generally more durable, longer-lasting, and provides superior soundproofing. It is also a better insulator, which can help reduce energy costs. Drywall is easier to remove for future renovations.

Aesthetics: Drywall provides a smooth, uniform surface ready for paint or texture. Plaster offers a high-end, naturally textured look that can hide imperfections and is often preferred for achieving a classic or historic aesthetic.

Which is better? The choice depends on your priorities. Drywall is ideal for those prioritizing a lower upfront cost, faster installation, and DIY potential. Plaster is the better option for a higher-end project where durability, soundproofing, and a unique, premium finish are more important than the initial cost.

It’s less costly to drywall a fireplace than shiplapping it since material costs are higher for shiplap. However, if you’re DIYing the project, shiplap is less expensive since you won’t have to pay for labor. With drywall, getting a smooth finish is difficult unless you’re a pro. Shiplap is ideal for an accent wall or unique space, such as around a fireplace, since it adds texture and gives off a cozy vibe.

Plastering and skimming are two different techniques for finishing walls. Plastering involves applying a thick layer of a plaster mixture—typically containing gypsum, lime, cement, sand, and water—to create a new surface. This process often requires multiple coats and is used for repairing significant damage or creating decorative textures. Skimming, on the other hand, is a technique that involves applying a thin layer of drywall compound or joint compound over an existing surface to smooth it out, covering minor imperfections, small cracks, or uneven textures for a polished look. Plastering is generally more costly and labor-intensive than skimming. Although some people use the terms interchangeably, they refer to different processes and materials.

You do not need to drywall over most types of garage insulation. However, doing so can increase noise reduction, make the space more attractive, and keep children and pets from touching harmful fiberglass insulation. If you’re using cellulose or some other type of blown-in insulation (fiberglass and mineral wool are common), you will need drywall to contain the insulation material.
