"Prodent Homes did an excellent job with our attic remediation. They removed the old insulation, sanitized and re-insulated the entire attic. The owner David was easy to communicate. The crew lead Jose was very experienced and communicated well. The job was done professionally. We are happy with the results and will use them again if we have another insulation job."

"Comfenergy was very professional thorough from the in-person estimate thru installation. Even though we didnt have a full energy audit, they still go over your entire home and tell you what should and what needs to be done. Some of the little things we did ourselves, or had our handyman. Then Comfenergy did the big part, seal and insulate the attic. We still had late 80's insulation and never a sealing done. It ended up being over an 8 hour project. They were not the cheapest estimate, but definitely the most in-depth review and recommendations provided. The two man team that did the actual work were very professional, showed us the work as the progressed, and good clean up job after all was done."

"We had a great experience with Discount Energy Services. They insulated our entire attic and crawl space, and from start to finish they were professional, responsive, and easy to work with. The turnaround time was impressively quick, the quality of the work was excellent, and we felt the value was very good for the scope of the project. The team was efficient, knowledgeable, and clearly took pride in doing the job well. We really appreciated how smoothly the whole process went and would gladly recommend Discount Energy Services to anyone looking for high-quality insulation work."

"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."

"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!"

"Capital Insulation just finished a two-day project at my home, removing old, poor quality attic insulation and replaced it with 21 inches of blown fiber glass insulation. They sealed joints, insulated and sealed around sky lights, recessed lights, put new covers over recessed ceiling lights, etc. Jon, team lead, is awesome, a true professional, and task focused to deliver superior results. The crew worked together well with a positive work attitude which I admired. You can see that they enjoy their work and take pride in what they do. Since most of us home owners don't get up into our attics much, if at all, it is important to find a company you know will do the work you pay for. This is a high-quality company with integrity that will do outstanding work for you and you will no longer need to worry about what is going on in your attic. Karl, the company owner, was also in the attic doing work at my home and pointing out to me things he found and offered solutions for fixing problems"

"Kelvin, the owner of the business, did a fantastic job with my project. He answered my call, was able to come by to look at the project promptly, knew exactly what I needed done, and made this process very easy with a reasonable quote as well. I had plywood flooring down and he and his guys unscrewed it, moved my attic items around to get full access in stages and sucked out all the old insulation, while covering my stairs and hallways with drop cloths. They were clean, respectful, efficient, showed me what was happening along the way, and did a stellar job. They added foam insulation and blown-in insulation, reinstalled my flooring and left the job in very good condition. I am very happy to recommend them!"

"I got my attic insulation replaced with them, and I’m very happy with the service. The team was clean, professional and got the job done quickly. Before the project, the upstairs was always freezing in the winter, but now the temperature is consistent across all floors.I definitely recommend them!"

Drywall Insulation questions, answered by experts

A nail in drywall cannot hold very much—usually only a few pounds. A nail in a stud can add support and hold around 20 pounds. If you are trying to hang something heavier, get some help from drywall anchors—toggle bolts are very strong and able to withstand more weight.

Certain drywall textures, like sand and sometimes popcorn, can be smoothed by applying skim coats, sanding the walls, or chipping away the texture. However, it’s worth considering removing the texture and starting with a blank canvas. Smoothing textured walls requires a lot of sandpaper and elbow grease and can take longer than just outright removing the texture.

While not always necessary, you can glue a drywall ceiling in addition to using screws or nails. Drywall is typically secured to ceiling joists with fasteners, which is often sufficient. However, adding construction adhesive can offer benefits like preventing sagging, bridging gaps, and reducing air leaks for better energy efficiency. It may also be used for specific acoustic or insulation needs. On the other hand, many professionals advise against it because properly placed screws make the drywall structural, glue doesn't add strength, and it makes future repairs or replacements significantly more difficult. Ultimately, it's best to follow local building codes and project-specific requirements to decide if adhesive is right for your ceiling.

You’ll want to inspect your plaster walls for signs of damage before painting. If you notice soft spots, deep cracks, bubbling, or areas where the plaster is crumbling or pulling away from the wall, it likely needs repair. While small hairline cracks are common and likely cosmetic, you should address larger issues before painting to ensure a quality, smooth finish.

When used correctly, drywall patch kits can work well. However, there are limitations. Specifically, these kits can only cover holes up to 5 inches in diameter. For anything larger than that, you’ll need to cut out the affected section of drywall and replace it with a new piece. That’s a far more complicated process that involves buying the right type of drywall, finding the wall studs, cutting into your wall, and screwing the replacement drywall in place.
