"They showed up on time and finished earlier than I expected.  Our house was built in 1986 with not enough power outlets in the garage.  Not even capable of installing garage door openers.  We wanted to also hook up a spare fridge and have some outlets for power tools / lawn equipment, etc.  They had to cut open some drywall to make this happen, but they were very neat about it and we will patch that on our own.  They have an outsourced service for those repairs, but we are choosing to to use it.  Everything works and looks great.  For a much lower price than another competitors quote.

"This is my second A review of Rife Remodeling. They also replaced our roof in 2016. There is no better review than a repeat customer! I immediately contacted John when we decided we wanted to fence the yard. He was quick with the estimate, but I had not expected it to be completed until warmer weather. But his crew was here in just a few days to get started. Super nice bunch who do fantastic work and clean up after themselves. Very very pleased with the fence, the price, and the crew. The dogs are loving the yard too! I will be seeing them for the next project!!"

Drywall questions, answered by experts

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.

If you suspect black mold is inside your walls, do not punch a hole in the drywall yourself to look. Call a mold inspection expert to help you. Some signs of a potential black mold infestation inside the wall include an unexplained musty, damp smell. Some people liken it to rotting vegetables. You may smell it most strongly through a wall outlet. If you and your family are experiencing constant coughing or symptoms that feel like an unexplained allergy, it could indicate black mold behind a wall.

The age of your home can clue you in to whether you have plaster or drywall ceilings. Homes built after the ‘70s are more likely to have drywall ceilings and walls, while older homes have plaster. You can also do the pushpin test: A pushpin will go into drywall, whereas it’s much harder to push one into a plaster wall. If you’re still unsure, ask a drywall professional to let you know which type of ceilings and walls you have.

The cost to install drywall is between $1.50 and $3 per square foot, while shiplap installation costs between $2 and $7 on average. In most applications, shiplap installations cost more than that of putting in drywall. However, several ways exist to reduce shiplap prices, especially for small locations or accent walls, which can keep the total cost of shiplap competitive with that of drywall.

Damp plaster does dry out, although the drying time depends on several factors, including the type of plaster, the surrounding temperature, moisture content, and the extent of the dampness. Sometimes, it can take weeks or months for wall plaster to dry naturally.
