"Insulation Commandos is an outstanding company! Excellent communication with Matthew (phone, text and emails), detailed quotes with line item breakdown, photos throughout the process and video, fast service and completion of work. Insulation Commando's went beyond my expectations in my home repairs, I highly recommend them. From the first inspection, material removal, installation of new insulation, air sealing of crawl space, to the attachment of the floor joists.. I knew I made the right decision. They made my house, my home again! I look forward to hiring them to complete additional projects."

"Eddie fully explained the benefit of the planned level of insulation for our attic, uses quality Owen's Corning fiberglass blown in insulation and recommended adding an roof vent attic fan to remove heat/moisture in the summer and moisture in the winter. Currently, we have passive eve vents and roof ridge vent. Cooling inside of the roof with air flow should help extend the life of the shingles by removing stagnant hot air. We chose an electric roof vent fan rather than solar because of the # of cloudy days in our area and humidity. Everything was done quickly on scheduled time, all contacts were professional, kept our home as clean as possible and swept up loose insulation. Pricing was very competitive plus we qualified for TVA energy rebate."

"When I had originally contacted Bia Insulation I was pleasantly surprised at how quick and easy the process was to set up my appointment with them. Once everything logistically was taken care of, insulation install process came and went in a swift manner. I was highly impressed with not only how professional but personable Jeremy was. He was my go to guy from start to finish and that meant a lot to me. Having the one point of contact throughout the whole process was breathe of fresh air. As far as savings go, my wallet and my wife are VERY happy. We noticed savings on our bill within the first couple of months."

"They installed solar panels as per contract. They were on time and removed all material when done. I had roof damage from a storm and they repaired it at no extra cost. So far I am happy with this company and plan on using them again for house repair.

Drywall Insulation FAQs, answered by experts

While it’s most common to sand plaster dry, it is possible to wet-sand plaster, too. Doing so can reduce the amount of plaster dust released into the air and make it easier to work in smaller, more delicate areas (such as around wall trim). However, some people find that wet sanding leads to more imperfections, which is why larger walls are more often dry sanded to ensure an even finish.

The amount of drywall you need for a 1,000-square-foot basement depends on the ceiling height, angles, number of doors and windows, and more. To find the wall square footage, multiply the width and height of each wall, minus any gaps from windows or doors, and add the totals together. You’ll also need enough drywood nails or screws to install the drywall correctly.

Metal corners, often referred to as corner beads for square corners, are used on drywall installations to provide structural reinforcement to vulnerable outside corners. Their usage safeguards against chipping, denting, or other forms of damage, enhancing the overall durability of the wall. Metal corners also offer a precise and straight edge that facilitates sharp and clean lines, crucial for achieving a polished and professional finish.

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. 

Yes, you can hammer a nail into a wall stud. But before you do, it’s important to confirm that you’re actually nailing into a stud—and not wiring, pipes, or ductwork. To check, find a few more studs in the wall, then measure to make sure they’re either 16 or 24 inches apart.
