Doesn't take any card or e-payment, check only, didn't tell us at hire time. Used a fence we installed 2 years ago as the boundary, which seems very unlikely that we picked the exact correct line.

We hired Martin in November to install an interior and exterior door. He got us on the schedule immediately. He arrived on time and had the job finished on schedule. Our only issue was that the project was left needing some finish work that was unexpected. We would definitely hire him again.

Doorbell Installation FAQs, answered by experts

We do not recommend fiberglass insulation for soundproofing purposes, especially if you are working on a room that’s part of your living space. Fiberglass insulation is dangerous, and the installation process is hazardous. It is also harmful to the environment. When there are so many newer, healthier non-fiberglass alternatives in the market, the lower cost of fiberglass insulation simply doesn’t justify the harm and danger it poses.

The lifespan of crawl space insulation depends on how well you maintain your insulation and the type of insulation. Fiberglass will need replacing every 15 to 20 years on average if you don't have a vapor barrier in place. If you do have vapor barriers in place, then your insulation could last much longer. Spray foam insulation can last anywhere from 80 to 100 years.

It is possible to install a radiant barrier yourself. However, knowing how to install a radiant barrier and actually doing it are two totally different things. For example, it’s important that they be installed in a straight line but at an angle that creates a gap between the roof panels and the foil or spray. If this gap is too large or small, it won’t function as it should, and that may be hard to avoid if you’re only a novice. When in doubt, leave this job to a pro.

You don’t need to staple insulation, as your drywall and studs will hold it into place. But if you already have a staple gun and staples lying around, it can help keep the product in place and avoid any shifting. But, most experts agree it’s an unnecessary step.

If you’re adding a vapor barrier, you will need to staple that in place.

Rigid foam board insulation is one of the safest insulation materials for basement walls. The panels offer a moisture barrier to prevent mold and mildew build-up. At the same time, this material is also fire-resistant, so you don’t have to worry as much about a fire breaking out as you would with spray foam insulation.
