"David and his team were very professional and the work they did was excellent---we could tell the difference the next day. The temperature on the 2nd floor is several degree lower than before due to the new insulation and feels much more comfortable. David has solid knowledge regarding insulation and he explains things clearly. Definitely would recommend David and Prudent Homes to my friends and neighbors."

"I've been trying to find an expert in insulation for months to come out and tell me out to properly insulate around a removed chimney and Comfenergy was the expert I needed. Even though the insulation part of the job was too small for Comfenergy (wasn't above their minimum quote value) they were happy to give me their expert advice and I appreciate the time spent as I now know what to ask the roofing contractor to do in order to insulate this correctly. Thanks!"

"I am very pleased with how my attic insulation project turned out. when the company came to my house to give an estimate they evaluated my current insulation, told me what I needed to bring my home up to the current standards for attic insulation. (r49) more importantley they told me what I didn't need. I highly recommend this company for your insulation project."

"The company did a good job replacing old insulation in our attic. There was a communication hick-up but the project manager we worked with - Jamie - was able to correct and resolve the issue."

"I had multiple estimates and Fifth Fuel was the most professional and reasonable. Josh came to my house, took pictures of my attic and explained the different choices of insulating the attic. He provided an estimate in writing the same evening. The installers arrived on time, sent me photos of the before and after. They left the house clean with no debris. The result is a huge improvement in the temperature between the upstairs and down. I couldn’t be happier with them! Outstanding!! Thank you!"

"They wanted to inject very expensive sealant into the ducts to seal the seams. The company I hired used insulating tape over the seams instead, for a greatly reduced price. The total price difference in their proposal and the company that I hired was about $4500."

Drywall Insulation questions, answered by experts

Yes, it matters which side of drywall you use. One side is smooth, and the other is rough. The smooth side should be facing outward, toward the room, while the rough side should be hidden and facing the studs and framing of the house. The smooth side will be easier to apply tape, joint compound, and, later, paint to.

Fixing ceiling nail pops involves similar steps to wall repair, with the major difference being the orientation of the work. Ceiling nail pops can be more challenging because you may need to work overhead, which can be physically demanding and require additional safety precautions. Additionally, the ceiling may have different materials or finishes, such as textured surfaces, which can affect the repair process. Otherwise, the fundamental steps are the same.

In many cases, installing new drywall will boost your home value. Replacing old, damaged, cracked, or wavy drywall is a great way to improve the look and feel of your home, as new drywall installed by a professional shouldn’t have any imperfections. Additionally, removing old drywall means you’ll have open walls, so you can install new insulation and address exposed issues with plumbing and electrical systems running behind the walls. All of these fixes will also add to your home’s value.

Plaster itself has a higher R-value than drywall. However, there are other considerations surrounding plaster and insulation. As a general rule, it's easier to obtain consistency in insulating value and quality when working with drywall rather than plaster. Plaster walls often don't contain any insulation behind the wall covering by design, and careful evaluation is necessary when choosing to add it.

New plaster must be fully dry and cured before painting. The drying time for plaster ranges from 1 to 4 hours, but the curing process can take more than five days, depending on various factors, including humidity levels, temperature, the amount of plaster used, and airflow in the area. You should always apply primer before painting plaster.
