"I communicated with Ron directly and he was determined to solve our insulation problems. He had to remove drywall in our entranceway and add in insulation where there were large gaps and air was getting in. He had a worker drywall and patch up the wall. The drywall worker did an amazing job! 
Ron also fixed an ongoing issue we had in our garage ceiling that was causing our living room floor to be cold and drafty. He worked around our schedule and made multiple visits to our home to fix the issue. We are happy customers and happy to say that the problem is fixed. We were very pleased with Ron and his company and do recommend him highly.

"We liked Jonathan's original proposal except for the choices of railing colors. He immediately researched other suppliers and was quickly back to make the necessary changes to the proposal to get the project started. The building permit and materials came in earlier than anticipated, and the job was begun one week before the anticipated start date and completed in three days. The workmanship and professionalism were outstanding. The deck is beautiful and exceeded our expectations. For me, small family owned and operated businesses usually are the best bet, and this company is no exception. I recommend J & F unconditionally."

Drywall Insulation FAQs, answered by experts

Yes, you can install drywall over plaster, but there are important factors to consider. While it can create a smooth, flat surface, it is often not the best approach. Installing drywall over plaster will increase the wall's thickness, which can cause issues with existing window and door frames that may no longer fit. You might also need to adjust power outlets to keep them accessible. A better, though more expensive, option is to remove the old plaster and lath entirely before installing new drywall. Drywalling directly over plaster seals in the old material, and if any problems arise later, you will need to remove both layers down to the structural beams for repairs. Given the potential complications, this job is best handled by professionals.

The cost to install drywall is between $1.50 and $3 per square foot, while shiplap installation costs between $2 and $7 on average. In most applications, shiplap installations cost more than that of putting in drywall. However, several ways exist to reduce shiplap prices, especially for small locations or accent walls, which can keep the total cost of shiplap competitive with that of drywall.

Yes, drywall nail pops are a common occurrence in homes, both new and old, resulting from the settling and shifting of the structure over time. Though not present in every room or on every wall, encountering nail pops in different sections of a home is not unusual, particularly if the temperature, humidity, or foundation has experienced changes.

When doing a DIY paint job, it can be tricky to achieve the perfect, straight line between your wall and ceiling. There are several methods, including lining it with painter’s tape and using the “cut in” brush tactic. Some homeowners choose to apply a thin line of caulk to the wall-ceiling seam to create the appearance of a perfect line.

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.
