"Koala Insulation did a great job for our family. They were on time, very clean and did a great job. They weren't pushy and helped us understand what our house needed. We would recommend them to all of our friends and family."

"Well, the first time the replacement was ordered it was the wrong one, which of course, delayed the installation a week. When it was finally installed I had to pay an additional $850 for code upgrades. This I was not informed of by Home Shield. Then we noticed that there was water on the garage floor and found that the pipe coming in from the wall was leaking at the wall so had to call the plumbing company back out to fix it. They first tried to say it was not their fault but since there wasn't a leak before they installed they did fix it. I have used Home Shield a few times before and never had a problem. Some of the companies they use are not the best so you have to research them before you commit. I have found HS service to be good if you do your homework. At the end of the day I was without hot water for almost 3 weeks but it was do to the plumbing company they sent out."

"I had them come over and do a price on a rental property basement. The house is worth about 80k and I explained to him that as an appt I didn't want to invest a lot of money. Tenants do not usually care for things the same way the homeowner would. He came back with a price of 15 to 20k. For simply drywall and plaster. I asked him to break down the PLASTER only price...and was quoted 5k. I had my 1st floor done last year...full kitchen and dining area and a large stairway with 20 foot ceilings. I was charged just over 700 for the work through my contractor. I would have had them working again but they are tied up for 6 months and I couldn't wait. After telling him I thought the price was awfully high for the small area. He then made me fell like I was a total CHEAPSKATE. In tough economic times and with all his great reviews I was very disappointed in his attitude. I think the man was a sales rep for the company. But was a bit of a smart*expletive*. Which just wasn't the attitude I would want from anyone doing work for me. BTW I own 4 rental properties...and I put 25k into the upper floor remodel. So I really don't consider myself CHEAP. But I'll keep my 20k in my pocket and spend 8 with another contractor."

Drywall Insulation FAQs, answered by experts

Knowing what causes drywall damage can help stop it before it starts. Here are some of the most common causes of drywall damage: 

  • Water damage from roof leaks or leaky pipes. 

  • Small holes caused by doorknobs, minor accidents, and rodent infestations. 

  • Wall dents stemming from moving furniture and minor accidents. 

  • Wall cracks that form from a settling foundation or seismic activity. 

  • Nail pops from nails and screws in the walls. 

  • Large holes that are caused by accidents with heavy objects, children and pets, or sporting equipment.

Regular inspections, repainting, and avoiding moisture exposure help maintain integrity.

It’s highly recommended to use studs for a TV mount. The last thing you want is to be watching your favorite show when the TV falls off the wall. Studs are much stronger than drywall and quite a bit stronger than drywall anchors but, if you can’t find the studs or there simply aren’t any where you need them, you can use drywall anchors. It’s extremely important to make sure the anchors are rated for the load of the TV. We recommend using anchors that are rated far beyond the weight of whatever you’re hanging. Our suggestion is metal drywall toggle anchors. 

There is no way to cut drywall without making dust, but you can reduce the amount of dust and especially the dangerous airborne particles by using manual cutting tools. Using a utility knife to score and snap your drywall will minimize dust production, and a jab saw for cutting cutouts for boxes and fixtures will generate almost no airborne dust. Even if you use these methods, you should still wear a respirator and safety goggles to avoid damage to your lungs and eyes.

You can put certain types of plaster over other types, but doing so isn't always the best idea. For example, putting a coat of gypsum over lime plaster is possible, but doing so will limit the lime plaster's breathability and potentially affect its performance.

Since cement plaster tends to leave a textured surface, no matter how much you smooth it, some people prefer to use gypsum plaster as a topcoat over cement plaster, creating a smoother surface.
