"I can't say one thing bad about this business: very professional, reasonable price, and they cleaned up that you would not know they were ever here. I will certainly recommend to anyone adding insulation to their house and like us insulating the garage. Excellent job to Hassan and his team."

"Joe from Western came out, did a very thorough inspection of my crawl space, and discussed options for termite protection in a very detailed way. He also showed me some other problems in my crawl space that I should be aware of-simply as a homeowner to homeowner, not as a contractor. I appreciated his time and effort."

"A price was provided for the cleaning of both units prior to arrival (price maintained after work done and had a coupon from Angie's List which was applied without issue!). An estimate was provided for the pad work at the time of arrival, which we accepted. The technician immediately contacted another technician to come and help him (unit and pad too heavy for one individual). Second technician came very promptly. All work was done within 2 hours and done very well. We were extremely pleased with the promptness of the technicians arrival, their professionalistm and their work quality. Definitely would use them again!

Drywall Insulation questions, answered by experts

Yes, small, superficial cracks are normal as homes settle. Older homes have a higher chance of showing signs of settling through hairline cracks from temperature changes, moisture changes, and soil shifting. However, larger cracks, or discolored cracks from water damage, may signify a bigger problem that requires reparations and preventative measures.

Deciding whether to repair or replace drywall can be tricky, but your top considerations should be the extent of the damage and what caused the damage. For instance, if you need to repair a small hole caused by a doorknob that hit the wall, you can safely patch it without a second thought. However, if you have significant drywall damage caused by water damage, it’s best to thoroughly remove the drywall to inspect and repair the pipes behind it before replacing it.

If you already have plaster walls and ceilings, adding new plaster costs $2 to $10 per square foot. For an average-sized room, that would come out to $1,200 to $10,000. However, the cost to replace plaster with drywall is higher—running between $720 and $1,250 for a 10-by-8-foot wall or ceiling (not including drywall finishing).

All plaster walls will crack over time due to normal house settling and expansion and contraction from temperature and moisture changes. Small, thin hairline cracks are generally not serious and are mostly a cosmetic issue. However, larger or more significant cracks can indicate structural problems.

Here's how to tell the difference:

  • Cosmetic Cracks: Cracks that are 0.5 cm (0.2 inches) or thinner are typically cosmetic.

  • Structural Cracks: Cracks wider than 0.5 cm, excessive or deep cracks, multiple cracks in the same area, or cracks that span around corners can signify a structural or foundation issue. Cracks along the joints where walls meet the ceiling also warrant attention.

For cracks wider than 0.5 cm, structural repair is needed. If a crack is 2.5 cm (1 inch) or wider, or if you notice any signs of a structural problem, it is best to contact a plaster repair professional to assess the damage.

You do not need to drywall over most types of garage insulation. However, doing so can increase noise reduction, make the space more attractive, and keep children and pets from touching harmful fiberglass insulation. If you’re using cellulose or some other type of blown-in insulation (fiberglass and mineral wool are common), you will need drywall to contain the insulation material.
