Customers say: Super punctual

"After we invested in a whole house energy audit by Rhett Major, the Energy Doctor, he referred us to Andy Haak and Insulwise because "they will do it right". Insulwise insulated our third floor (ceiling, knee walls and floors), and sealed and repaired the leaky duct work of our HVAC system. They also sealed the rim joists in the basement of our 100 year-old house. Andy and his team were responsive, they worked hard, they were good communicators, and they cared about getting details right. More importantly, when something went wrong (our drywall ceilings were not up to code and were water damaged, and cracked under the weight of the insulation), Andy was honest and worked hard to help us get the situation repaired and to have new insulation installed in a timely way once the ceilings were replaced. The longer we worked with Insulwise, the more they earned our respect. We highly recommend them!! We're looking forward to warm winters and cool summers and lower energy bills in our insulated house."

"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."

"The office staff was very good at scheduling and the estimation, prompt, efficient and great to deal with. The staff who had to come to do some prep work and the staff who did the insulating were on time and worked well until the job was completed. The price was also less than two other estimates. Over all, on every aspect of the job, we would give Mincin 5 STARS. Thank You."

"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."

"The job was extremely difficult due to three different layers of insulation in my attic including blown in insulation. They suggested I go with the foam. I requested they not spend to much time cleaning up because I wanted to clean the entire garage."

"Zach stopped by shortly after I called to measure and gave me an estimate quickly. I acquired several other estimates and Zachs price was competitive (about in the middle).  I informed Zach that I was interested in his services and the date I wanted to start. Zach and his crew (Him 2 other roofers and a laborer) actually got started a little early and it happened to be on one of the days it was close to 100 degrees. Even in that heat they worked promptly and professionally so I bought them a case of water and had it on ice for them to drink plus my daughter offered freeze pops occasionally and they greatly appreciated it. Once they removed the top half of the shingles and sheathing they laid tow boards for the Mold company to be able to remove all the old insulation and do their work. At night because my house was fully vulnerable to the elements of nature (rain) Zach covered my house with a brand new Tarp big enough to cover everything to ensure no water if it did rain would enter and do damage. Zach and his crew had to wait until all the mold remediation process was done and then removed the rest of the shingles and sheathing. Then they installed all new sheathing (3/4 OSB), shingles(Owens Corning Duration Dimensional Shingles) gutters, downspouts, drip edge, and new aluminum covered fascia boards and covered Gable trim with aluminum then at  the end installed new Ridge Vent (Owens Corning Vent Sure Ridge Vent). When the job was completed they cleaned up very nicely.
I was very impressed how Zach and his crew was able to work with the other contractors, work in extreme temperatures, and clean up very nicely. I would definitely recommend "Always Perfect Contracting" and actually will have Zach coming back to my house for another job very soon."

Drywall Insulation questions, answered by experts

Plaster can be a difficult DIY to master, especially if you plan to plaster an entire room, rather than patch a small area. Before you begin a plaster DIY project, you need to know which tools and type of plaster to use. It's also important to know how to prepare the surface and apply the plaster for a smooth finish. If that all sounds like a lot of work, you may prefer hiring a local plaster repair contractor to do the job.

Whether a drywall anchor can be reused depends on its material, type, and the method of removal. Plastic anchors, including expansion and self-drilling types, are generally designed for single use as they tend to break or deform upon removal. Metal anchors, such as toggle bolts, are more durable and may be reusable if they are not damaged during extraction. However, with toggle bolts, the toggle piece can fall into the wall cavity when the bolt is removed, making it difficult to retrieve. If an anchor is damaged during removal, for instance by having its head cut off, it cannot be reused regardless of the material.

It’s not a good idea to plaster over broken plaster (unless by broken you’re referring to cracked, in which case that’s perfectly fine). However, broken plaster can be a sign of a larger underlying issue like foundation damage or severe damage to the lath holding up the plaster, so it’s worth investigating before you simply plaster on top of the damage.

There are several things you should not do when installing drywall. Common mistakes include: adding too many screws, over-sanding, not adding backing support, and installing drywall unevenly. You also should avoid screwing into the same place twice, installing Sheetrock with tapered edges on the outside, and making too many joints.

This depends on how much plaster is applied and in how many layers, but a decent estimate is around 150 square feet. If you are applying only two coats on a small wall, there is a chance you may only need one or two gallons for the entire project. If you are plastering a large living room wall with high ceilings, using one of the more involved techniques–like Scagliola–that requires several coats, expect the project materials costs to add up quickly.
