"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."

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.

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.

Whether you apply the drywall mesh before or after drywall mud depends on the type of patch it is. For self-adhesive patches, you’ll put the patch down first and then coat it with mud. Mesh patches that are not self-adhesive will require you to put mud down first and then press the mesh into it, followed by additional coats of mud.

Yes, it is possible to rewire a house without removing the drywall, but this doesn’t work in all homes. You can pull out old wires and insert new ones if you have access to the wiring system via the ceiling or through a crawl space. Some pros can also use a magnetic kit to fish the old wire out of the wall through a hole cavity and install the new wires. Just keep in mind that doing this is less stable than removing drywall, as you won’t be able to staple the wires into the framing.

There are a few ways to figure out if your walls are plaster or drywall, but the pushpin method is probably the easiest option. To try it, choose a part of your wall where you can insert a pushpin or thumbtack without leaving an obvious mark. If it goes in easily, you have drywall. But if the wall is tough to penetrate, that’s plaster.

You should wait at least 24 hours for drywall mud to dry before sanding or applying another coat. However, the exact drying time depends on several factors, including the thickness of the application, room temperature, humidity, and the type of compound used. Thicker layers, or projects in high humidity, may require 48 hours or more. Lightweight compounds tend to dry faster than heavier, all-purpose ones. You'll know the mud is ready when it feels completely dry and firm to the touch and has changed to a consistent light color. Sanding too early can cause smudging or gouges, so patience is essential for a smooth finish.
