"I had a wonderful stuff with U.S Insulation. They were professional, we had an area that quite wasn't insulated right and they came out and took care of it. No questions asked and they cleaned up and they were wonderful. I would use them again in the future."

"Tom and his crew did an excellent job removing a soffit in my kitchen, removing drywall where a tile backsplash was removed, and repairing both. The ceiling has a rosebud texture and the matching ceiling texture Tom applied is perfect (in the attached photo the left side is old texture and the right is the repair). I wouldn't hesitate to recommend him for any drywall repair or ceiling repair work."

"The company was very supportive and accommodating. They took their time during the initial visit to review our attic before supplying a competitive quote which we accepted. They stuck by the quote during the completion of the job even though part of the attic required some additional insulation. Both Jose and Sergio were extremely thorough and professional. I will definitely recommend them to others without hesitation."

Drywall Insulation questions, answered by experts

You can usually tell if you have plaster or drywall by touch (plaster is harder, colder, and smoother than drywall) or by tapping on it (drywall sounds hollow, plaster does not). If you still cannot tell, peek under an outlet cover and check the cut edges. The rough edges show the composition of the wall. You will see either drywall (two paper sheets sandwiching gypsum material) or only plaster material (no paper sheets).

Popular wall textures include orange peel, knockdown, spray sand, and smooth finishes. Orange peel and knockdown are particularly common choices for drywall as they are simple and cost-effective. Orange peel texture has a lightly bumpy surface resembling the skin of an orange, while knockdown (sometimes called knockout) looks like a stucco finish with flattened high spots. In contrast, popcorn texture has fallen out of fashion, partly due to its past association with asbestos and a shift toward more restrained interior design styles.

Drying alone can take 1 to 4 hours to dry to the touch per plaster layer, but some types of plaster take several hours longer to dry. However, this doesn’t mean the job is done because plaster doesn’t fully harden until it cures, which can take a few days to a couple of weeks. It may take even longer if you’re building a new, pretty thick plaster wall. Allow the plaster to cure before painting it.

Water-damaged drywall should almost always be replaced. Not only does it look bad, it’s a breeding ground for toxic mold. Even if you think the area is dry and there’s no active leak, the only way to be sure is to cut out the damaged area and see for yourself.

While not always necessary, you can glue a drywall ceiling in addition to using screws or nails. Drywall is typically secured to ceiling joists with fasteners, which is often sufficient. However, adding construction adhesive can offer benefits like preventing sagging, bridging gaps, and reducing air leaks for better energy efficiency. It may also be used for specific acoustic or insulation needs. On the other hand, many professionals advise against it because properly placed screws make the drywall structural, glue doesn't add strength, and it makes future repairs or replacements significantly more difficult. Ultimately, it's best to follow local building codes and project-specific requirements to decide if adhesive is right for your ceiling.
