"Did a great job of installing insulation and drywall however, they cracked a wall when installing the drywall, they hammered rather than screw it into the studs. Now I must repair the cracked wall. Somehow my compact florescent light also disappeared from the laundry room . They also initially wanted to put the R-30 insulation on top of the R-11 that was already in the ceiling. When compressed the insulation would have lost some of its insulating capabilities so I had to tell them not to do that. Seems they should have known this."

"They installed new insulation for us in an un-insulated attic space. They were well-priced, on-time, and very easy to work with. Workers all wore protective equipment and were both professional and friendly."

"I had an extensive rat issue in the insulation under my house. The Crawlspace Crew came over the same day to give me a quote and inspect my crawlspace. They organized the entire job, including removing the insulation, setting up a new barrier, spray underneath my house with an antimicrobial chemical and reinstalling new insulation. They also orchestrated with a pest control company to come and set traps, and close up any holes that were ports of entry for the rats. They were extremely efficient at communicating back with me and Two to the timeline. Overall, I was very impressed with the Crawlspace Crew."

"Justin worked so hard to make sure our insurance company got us what we needed, that we were back in our house as quickly as possible, and my children would be safe. He was so very helpful, it would not have gone nearly as smoothly with anyone else!"

"They put in sound proofing insulation in a wall in my furnace room. It didn't really work, but it wasn't their fault due to the wall configuration. But they were very professional and did the best job they could due to my circumstances. I would hire them again."

"Juan of Timberland Insulation did an outstanding job. We had critters get into our crawl space where they ran amok all through our insulation. The old insulation had to be removed and new insulation installed. The crew at Timberland out performed my expectations. I would highly recommend them."

Drywall Insulation questions, answered by experts

When you are learning how to tape and mud drywall, waiting for things to dry requires a lot of patience. So how long does drywall mud take to dry? On average, it takes about 24 hours. However, it depends on things like the thickness of the mud, as well as the room’s temperature, humidity, and ventilation. Using thin layers of mud in a warm, low-humidity room with good airflow reduces average drying time. You also could speed up drying time by making use of hot drywall mud, which consists of a powder that you mix with water, instead of using pre-mixed mud. 

The amount of drywall you need for a 1,000-square-foot basement depends on the ceiling height, angles, number of doors and windows, and more. To find the wall square footage, multiply the width and height of each wall, minus any gaps from windows or doors, and add the totals together. You’ll also need enough drywood nails or screws to install the drywall correctly.

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.

You should always hang drywall from the top down. Starting at the top makes it easier to create a straight, tight line between the ceiling and the wall. Any gaps that occur will be at the bottom, where they are easier to manage. You can either cut the bottom piece of drywall to fit the remaining space or cover the gap with baseboard trim. Additionally, starting at the top is physically easier, as you won't have to fit the top sheet into a tight space between the lower sheet and the ceiling, or try to balance the upper sheets on the lower ones while securing them.

If you’re looking for a reliable plaster repair company, you should start by researching local companies in your area and reviewing their status with the Better Business Bureau. Next, you can contact the potential companies to ask about experience levels, get a list of references, and ask for examples of past work. If you have a textured wall, consider asking if they have examples or references for that particular texture. This method should help you narrow your search even further. You may also want to ask each company if they provide a warranty for their work.
