"Insulwise came highly recommended by Aeroseal for insulating our attic and garage ahead of winter. Brady, during the initial consultation, thoroughly discussed various insulation phases based on our budget. We decided on blown-in cellulose for both spaces. The team, Pat, Andrew, and Justin impressed us with their professionalism and completed the project efficiently in just 4 days. Andy also showed up a couple days to ensure everything was to our satisfaction. Their attention to detail in boosting insulation levels was evident, and it significantly improved the overall comfort of our home, maintaining consistent temperatures even during external temperature drops. While Insulwise wasn't the most budget-friendly option, their expertise and exceptional service make them our top recommendation for anyone seeking high-quality insulation solutions. Choose Insulwise for a job well done."

"Dealing with Casey Insulation was great. They installed attic and garage insulation at my daughterâ s home in one day, and were meticulous in protecting exposed areas and in cleaning up, even though there was little to no mess. Owner Bob Casey is hands-on in the process, even stopping by on the install day to check the work. His son, Sean, explained the process and showed me the attic results when finished, which I appreciated. I highly recommend this company for anyoneâ s home insulation needs."

"Quality experience from my initial inquiry, to estimate and Tech's explanation of each and every step that they would provide to insure the best job that could be done and for the installation. All three installation workers, that worked on my house, were very professional, very knowledgeable and each took pride in the work they were performing. This was was a full attic insulation, including removal of old and replacement of new, and basement sill plate sealing of a 100 year old home. They politely, and with enthusiasm of their craft, answered my questions about what they were doing, why and how, which just confirmed that I had made the right choice to go with Mincin."

"Bob and his team were great. Bob gave honest advice on the best option to insulate my attic and crawl spaces. The main issue we had was our infants bedroom which had brick walls and 2 windows making it very drafty. While the insulation made a noticeable difference overall, our sons room was still a bit drafty which we expected due to the brick outer walls. Still worth every penny."

"I called to get a quote on the removal and installation for insulation in my attic. Erik Bachman was our Home Performance Specialist and was incredibly knowledgeable and honest with the quality of our existing insulation. As new home owners, the investment of installing new insulation can be overwhelming. Erik was very thorough in his inspection and was easy to talk to about what would make most sense in terms of an investment for our home. When the time is right, we will definitely give Insulwise a call for service. I am impressed with the high-level of customer service. I am relieved knowing that there is a local trust worthy company that I can call in the coming months to get the job done."

Drywall Insulation questions, answered by experts

Drywall is safe to cut as long as you follow proper procedures, such as wearing personal protective equipment and using the right tools to score and cut the drywall. When cutting new drywall, it can release dust with silica and other compounds that could pose health risks. Leave cutting drywall to the pros, or wear a high-quality respiratory mask, goggles, and other PPE when handling drywall.

Costs depend on labor, material quality, wall preparation, and finishing requirements.

Plastering and skimming are two different techniques for finishing walls. Plastering involves applying a thick layer of a plaster mixture—typically containing gypsum, lime, cement, sand, and water—to create a new surface. This process often requires multiple coats and is used for repairing significant damage or creating decorative textures. Skimming, on the other hand, is a technique that involves applying a thin layer of drywall compound or joint compound over an existing surface to smooth it out, covering minor imperfections, small cracks, or uneven textures for a polished look. Plastering is generally more costly and labor-intensive than skimming. Although some people use the terms interchangeably, they refer to different processes and materials.

To hide drywall edges, you need to properly apply drywall tape and multiple layers of joint compound. These materials hide the seams between drywall sheets and fill the holes from drywall screws, leaving behind a smooth, flat finish to paint over. Apply joint compound smoothly, and finish the job by sanding the walls to make sure you fully hide drywall edges and other imperfections.

Yes, you can apply new plaster over an existing plaster surface, such as a wall or ceiling, provided the old plaster is in good condition. Before you begin, check the stability of the existing plaster. The surface must be clean, free of loose material, and have no peeling paint. It is also recommended to roughen the surface slightly to promote adhesion. For older plaster, applying a base coat like a PVA emulsion or a specific bonding agent or primer is crucial. This step makes the existing plaster less porous and ensures the new and old layers adhere properly for a smooth, long-lasting finish.
