"I am extremely pleased with MILEX (MILO insulation). Work was done June 7 & 8, 2021. I have noticed a significant improvement in my home. Very professional, on time, worked nonstop except for a lunch break the first day (removing all old insulation- it was a MESS!). Worked nonstop the 2nd day - blowing in the insulation. I donâ  t hesitate to recommend to anyone and everyone"

"I am extremely satisfied with the quality of the work Raven Insulation performed in the process of spraying foam insulation in my 40 foot shipping container. They met and exceeded my expectations throughout the entire project. As a matter of fact, I have another insulation project planned in the near future in which I will definitely be utilizing Raven Insulation as the contractor."

"Dillon just finished up updating the insulation in our attic, it was old and missing in quite a few spots. Needed to be brought up to code. All work was done well and he cleaned up everything before leaving. I would use him again and recommend him to anyone."

"They were great. I hired them to remove old insulation and install new insulation. They discovered serious issues with my a/c duct work. They rearranged their schedule to come back and make repairs to the ducts. They were lifesavers."

"They came out to give me an estimate. I like to meet the person who I might hire for the job, and I enjoyed talking to Matt. I had 2 other companies who gave me quotes but they were over the phone. The quote was very very reasonable. They did a great job, and cleaned up nicely! I would highly recommend them to anyone."

Drywall Insulation questions, answered by experts

Although they are used for similar tasks, spackle and joint compound are not the same. Joint compound, also known as drywall mud, consists of limestone and gypsum and is primarily used for large-scale projects like taping and finishing seams on new drywall. Spackle is composed of gypsum and binding agents, making it a thicker compound best suited for small wall repairs like filling nail holes or cracks, as it dries quickly and is easy to sand. For small repairs, either product can be suitable. However, you can use joint compound for small jobs in place of spackle, but you cannot use spackle for large-scale taping and mudding projects.

You should always hang drywall from the top down. Starting at the top makes it easier to create a straight, tight line between the ceiling and the wall. Any gaps that occur will be at the bottom, where they are easier to manage. You can either cut the bottom piece of drywall to fit the remaining space or cover the gap with baseboard trim. Additionally, starting at the top is physically easier, as you won't have to fit the top sheet into a tight space between the lower sheet and the ceiling, or try to balance the upper sheets on the lower ones while securing them.

You can usually tell if you have plaster or drywall by touch (plaster is harder, colder, and smoother than drywall) or by tapping on it (drywall sounds hollow, plaster does not). If you still cannot tell, peek under an outlet cover and check the cut edges. The rough edges show the composition of the wall. You will see either drywall (two paper sheets sandwiching gypsum material) or only plaster material (no paper sheets).

Drywall insulation costs around $1,800, on average, but prices can range from $500 to $4,500, depending on a few different factors. The following things are important considerations to make when pricing out your insulation project:

  • Square footage of insulation

  • Type of insulation 

  • Climate in your area and the insulation R-value required

  • Whether or not your walls are already finished

  • Accessibility of the area 

  • Whether or not you need old insulation removed first

If your home was built before the 1940s and was not remodeled in the past 50 or so years, you probably have plaster walls. Aside from assuming, there are some practical ways to tell if you have plaster walls, including the following: If you knock on the wall and it feels solid, not hollow, if you can’t insert a thumbtack easily, if there are cracks that look like spiderwebs, or if your home has curved, arched, or swirled walls, doorways, or window openings.

If you have an unfinished basement or attic, you could examine the backs of any finished walls to check, too.
