"Zero complaints. I have worked with Insulation Northwest twice now and have been very satisfied both times. The sales agent worked with me to find the best and most cost-effective solution, the customer service team is responsive, and the installers were professional, curtious, and pleasant. I recommend Insulation Northwest for all your insulation needs!"
"PNW Insulation completed many insulation tasks on a house for me including wall insulation, crawl space and attic. They were very accommodating with scheduling the work at various times as each area was ready. I highly recommend them."
"We had Lake Atitlan Insulation remove our old insulation and replace it with R-38. I enjoyed working with Nanni from the initial meeting to the final step of installing the insulation. Very knowledgeable lady and truly exceptional customer service. A highly recommended insulation contractor."
"We had a wonderful attic insulation experience with Madrona Home Services! They had the best pricing, including the Puget Sound Energy discount and they managed all the paperwork. We were able to schedule two weeks after the quote, and their team worked fast and efficiently on installation day. They removed old saw dust insulation and laid down batting, as well as going above and beyond by creating an 8x8 storage platform. Our house feels noticably cozier with consistent temperatures. 10/10"
"The entire process from estimating (Kenny) to project management (Walter) to team members (four), was efficient, respectful of our property and extremely communicative. The team went multiple extra steps to make sure our crawl space free of entry points for critters while installing all new insulation"
"We literally been roasted in our house especially on the second floor with that late heatwave going on .
Eric from Insulation Pro took care of our attic. Full insulation replacement. Some mold problems and vents to reconnect . I was skeptic I even tested with the thermostat furnace but it literally did the job. Couldn't be happier."
"OK, letâ s get this out-of-the-way. The job was a daunting one which was completed to perfection. His work is clean and thorough. But letâ s talk about Arlin. Heâ s kind of dry, with a no problem, can-do attitude. I was kind of worried if he knew what he was getting into because the job was quite challenging (huge expanse at 25 feet in the air, insulating around 40â exposed glulams). No worries - this is an impressive young man. His work is excellent. Highly recommend."
"I hired Acorn Attics to insulate my house and I couldn’t be more happy with their work. Phil and his crew were on time, friendly and incredibly hard workers. He worked with me on scheduling and made sure to keep our project moving even when we had a setback with another repair. I highly recommend them. They will get the job done. Thank you Acorn Attics and Crawl Spaces!!"
"Erick with AG construction came to my rental a week ago. He had the proper equipment to crawl under the house and determine what I needed to fix broken heat pipe, replace vapor barrier and replace insulation from a plumbing leak. I also had signs of rodents. He gave me a bid that was reasonable and was able to have his team on the job within a week.
I stopped by as the work was being done and saw old insulation in bags headed for the dump. The area was left clean and his photos of the job look great. This is a very professional company and I would use them again for any crawl space work."
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.
Most drywall used for interior walls of homes is 1/2-inch thick. This size strikes a balance of being easy to handle and hang while being thick enough for the durability needed on interior wall applications.
Yes, you can apply new plaster over an existing plaster surface, such as a wall or ceiling, provided the old plaster is in good condition. Before you begin, check the stability of the existing plaster. The surface must be clean, free of loose material, and have no peeling paint. It is also recommended to roughen the surface slightly to promote adhesion. For older plaster, applying a base coat like a PVA emulsion or a specific bonding agent or primer is crucial. This step makes the existing plaster less porous and ensures the new and old layers adhere properly for a smooth, long-lasting finish.
Plaster provides a durable, soundproof, and moisture-resistant finish compared to drywall.
It is possible to apply plaster on the interior or exterior of your home, but we don’t recommend it. Plaster is easy to apply in theory, but in reality, it can be a challenging material to work with, and it’s difficult to get the finished product to look clean, even, and smooth. Many DIYers end up calling in a professional afterward to touch up the area or even redo it entirely because of mistakes they made in the process. Hiring a plaster pro will cost more, but it’s usually the best option to achieve high-quality results.
