"Our large church / school facility required insulation upgrades due to high utility costs and severe gutter icing. We chose Installed Services due to their favorable bid, ability to provide knowledgeable explanation of our insulation issues, and responsiveness to questions / communications. Work was completed in a timely manner. We would likely hire them again if we need further services in the future."

"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!"

"We scheduled them for a particular week months in advance as the project was on a tight timeline. They could not start until after the demo upstairs and had to be done before HVAC installers showed up. Everything was completed on-time and the price paid was as quoted despite having to make a few changes to the plan once the walls were opened. Fantastic company. They want to do a good job and it shows. We were concerned about residual odors from spray foam but there are none. Most importantly the house retains heat with way less fuel burned! We heat primarily with wood and used to have temps drop >20 degrees from the moment we loaded up the stove before bed until waking. Seriously, the fire would burn for hours with the house at 75 degrees after we got in bed, but when we woke, it was 53 inside the house. Now with similar outside temps we don't bother to load up the stove before bed and we wake up it is maybe 8 degrees cooler. I love a morning in the mid-60s compared to the low-50s INSIDE my house in the winter. If you are going to retrofit your house with spray foam insulation, it is a huge and messy job, so be prepared for that. There are little bits of spray foam you have to clean up later, in the driveway, yard, house. You have to live somewhere else for at least 24 hours, but we stayed away almost a week while odors decreased. We had one issue where the AirKrete leaked through the inside of the house wall in 3 location and was not noticed by the crew. We came home to see the job they did and found globs of hardened foam hanging down the walls in these locations. I called Torsten and he reported this had not happened before, most houses don't have holes in walls on the inside, and had they seen it they would have cleaned it up. He came on site and helped me clean it up and apologized, which went a long way with me."

"We scheduled to have an estimate done for insulating our house due to the drafts in our house. The man doing the estimate was on time and professional. and more importantly was honest and told us our house was insulated adequately. There were a few spots above the windows that were lacking insulation. He told us we could spend money to fill those few spots but it wasn't a big problem. We appreciated his honesty and not looking to make a quick buck.

"Martin Berry of Berry Insulation Company called. Was interested in blown-in insulation between cinder block opening to prevent water seepage. But, foam is permeable. Martin provide many tips including drylock; checking for cracks between outside foundation and ground level including several others. His tips should prove immeasuaable. Would highly recommend Berry Insulation Company for their honesty and integrity. Greatly appreciated."

Drywall Insulation questions, answered by experts

There are six levels of drywall finish, from 0 to 5, that refer to the amount of work performed during the finishing process.

Level 0: Drywall is hung with no finishing work.

Level 1: Tape is placed over the seams between drywall sheets.

Level 2: A thin layer of mud is applied over the tape and screw holes. This level is common for utility rooms or walls that will be covered.

Level 3: A full coat of mud covers the screw holes and tape, but the surface is not sanded. This is often used in garages.

Level 4: This is the most common finish for visible interior walls. It involves applying two coats of mud over seams and screw holes, with sanding between each coat, creating a smooth surface ready for flat paint.

Level 5: This is a high-end finish for luxury homes. It includes full taping, mudding, and sanding, plus a final skim coat over the entire surface before painting.

Plaster walls typically last between 30 and 70 years, but depending on the quality of the materials and the moisture levels in the building, they can last for over 100 years. With expert application and consistent maintenance, plaster can even last for centuries. To extend its lifespan, it is important to have the plaster professionally installed, address any water damage promptly, and repair small cracks as they appear. Regular inspections by a professional can help identify and address concerning cracks before they become significant issues.

Costs depend on labor, material quality, wall preparation, and finishing requirements.

Certain drywall textures, like sand and sometimes popcorn, can be smoothed by applying skim coats, sanding the walls, or chipping away the texture. However, it’s worth considering removing the texture and starting with a blank canvas. Smoothing textured walls requires a lot of sandpaper and elbow grease and can take longer than just outright removing the texture.

Whether to repair or replace water-damaged plaster depends on the scale of the damage. For small, limited areas, you can often perform a repair yourself. If you choose to paint over small patches, ensure the surface is completely dry and apply a coat of antifungal primer first to prevent mold growth. However, simply painting or plastering over the damage is only a temporary solution that doesn't address the core problem. For more extensive or long-term damage, the plaster may be compromised, and there is a risk of mold. In these cases, it is recommended to remove the damaged section of plasterboard and replace it. You may consider hiring a professional for the repair, and it's worth noting that water damage is often covered by home insurance.
