Customers say: True professional

"Mark and David arrived promptly and began working right away.  They pulled out and bagged up all the old poly and debrie and installed the new moisture barrier.  Mark said they would call me next summer and come out to inspect under the house to be sure there is still not a moisture problem.  From my first phone call to set up an appointment to the completion of the job, Somer, Mark and David were friendly and professional.  They are hard working conscientious young people who take pride in their work.  I would recommend them to anyone in need of an honest company.  Not at all pushy.

"The process went very smoothly.  There were several teams that worked on my project.  The initial workers removed all of the old insulation and trash left under the house during construction, and cleaned the joists.  Later a perimeter drain system was installed, and the final job was to insulate the foundation perimeter and install the vapor barrier.  

All the work was done in a professional manner and the workers were all very courteous.  They were on time and on budget."
Unsealed porous foundation walls. Efflorescence has grown along the outside walls.
Plastic is laid out to protect the freshly pained walls and floor.
Open vents in the foundation walls allow outside air and moisture to infiltrate the crawl space, increasing the relative humidity and allowing mold spores to thrive inside.
Spray foam application in progress on warehouse walls.
The dirt floor is exposed, which will allow the moisture from the earth to rise uncontested into the crawl space, adding to the increase in relative humidity.

"Matt Epperly was very professional and new about insulation for our crawl space. He came and went under our house and took pictures. We did not know about the mold which he showed us. He made the suggestion of the spray foam and the Friction-fit rigid foam board door panel to be installed behind our existing crawl space access door. Spray Foam in crawl space rim and band joist for air-sealing and insulation. He also mentioned before the foam insulation spraying anti-microbial solution on all crawl space wood substructure. We were also told we would get free a Wireless Hygrometer. It displays the temperature and humidity both inside your crawl space. It was all accomplished in a few hours. They informed us for our protection to leave the home and come back. Everything was done neatly and no mess left."

"I am so impressed with Sweetland's Heating and Cooling! They have done a lot of work here, and I highly recommend them. The owner Judy is wonderful to work with. She is knowledgeable, professional, and the customer service is top notch. Any time I have had an issue, it was addressed very quickly, Judy even came to fix a minor issue on a Saturday as soon as I called her. We have a yearly maintenance agreement with them, and the service technicians are wonderful too! Very respectful and professional, and they explain any issues that they find thoroughly. Carol is great, she makes scheduling the yearly maintenance visits a breeze! We got 3 other estimates in addition to Sweetland's when we needed to have our system and ductwork replaced, and we are grateful to have Sweetland's Heating and Cooling on our home maintenance team!"

"Salesman Mike Best came to the home to do the initial assessment. Mike was fantastic. Upbeat, positive, knowledgable and an overall nice guy. I highly recommend him. He coordinated the blown in insulation in the attic of my room over the garage and the insulation and drywalling the ceiling of my garage. Both crews that came were very professional, super efficient, and nice guys. The room over my garage had either extremely hot or cold temperature. After they insulated the attic, there was an immediate and very pleasing change to the room temperature. The room was finally comfortable. His second crew arrived the next day and insulated and installed drywall to the ceiling of an 800 sq foot garage in a day! They returned the next day to finish up mudding. The temperature change to our room over the garage was drastic. I went from being a very cold or very hot room to being one of the most comfortable rooms in the house. Overall, I would HIGHLY recommend Ridge Remodeling and Design. They do exactly what they say they will do and with excellence."

"The installers were polite, friendly and professional. Overall we were happy with installation. DC traffic being what it is, they arrived 1.5 hours late with no call. Also, the hose was dropped causing insulation to blow on the driveway for a short time. This was not cleaned up. There was also some confusion over whether we wanted code 38 or 44 since we had quotes on both however the team made everything right by installing 44 as we wanted."

Drywall Insulation questions, answered by experts

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).

Technically speaking, you can use drywall primer over plasters. However, oil-based primers work the most effectively on wall plasters. Meanwhile, water-based primers work just as well with drywalls. Nowadays, there are also universal primers suitable for drywall and plaster. Overall, you will be fine as long as you are using a trustworthy brand.

Drywall mudding can be done in one day if the project is small and the desired effect isn’t too complex. If you need multiple layers of mud, one day may not be realistic. But a single room that requires little more than joint compound on the seams and screws can be done in a day or two.

Wet-sanding and dry-sanding each have pros and cons. Dry-sanding is less messy, so it’s a good option if you’re trying to minimize dust (for example, if you’re sanding an occupied home or working with particularly dry or dusty drywall mud). However, dry-sanding is quicker because you don’t have to keep rinsing a sponge or wait for it to dry before painting.

Regular dusting, occasional repainting, and avoiding harsh scrubbing preserve the finish.
