"The gentleman who came and did the energy audit was really outstanding. I have only lived here for a year and half and I have a gas fire place has leaked cold air like there is an open window and my builder has just been refusing to fix. Finally after a second winter of no fireplace I decided to have to repaired. I wanted to have an energy audit done before and then I would decide maybe to sue the builder. When Angelo came from Intec and I told him the story, he said that before the audit, he would tell me what I already knew, that my fireplace was leaking air like an open window, so he suggested that he would come and do the audit after the fireplace was repaired to make sure everything was right. He came, he told me this and he rescheduled to come back a week later. He did a very nice job. My only concern is he told me that he would send me the report, I thought that he told me that I would have the report by the following Thursday, and I have been busy and haven't followed, but I don't expect there to be an issue when I call. There are a couple of things he had suggested that I would have to have insulated better, and I would like to have those fixed. He came when it was originally scheduled and he came a week later, and I had offered additional payment for that, but he said absolutely not. While he was here, he really took time to explain to me in much greater detail than the previous guy. When he talked to me about the couple of areas where there was leakage, I asked if it was possible to have it fixed without going into the roof, so he went into the roof. He was very professional, personable, and thorough. I feel like when I get that report, and the 3 three things that he had told me, if it is something that the company can repair, I am pretty confident that I will use them."

"I was amazed how professional they were. They repaired two damaged areas and the repair to the drywall was perfect . They even matched the texture and color of the paint. I thought I would have to paint the area but they did everything. I can honestly recommend them in a heart beat. Could not be happier."

Drywall Insulation questions, answered by experts

The amount of drywall you need for a 1,000-square-foot basement depends on the ceiling height, angles, number of doors and windows, and more. To find the wall square footage, multiply the width and height of each wall, minus any gaps from windows or doors, and add the totals together. You’ll also need enough drywood nails or screws to install the drywall correctly.

Choose a drill bit that is the size of the screws of the anchors you will use. You aren’t drilling through metal or concrete—hopefully—so any standard twist, wooden or all-purpose drill bit will work fine. It’s also important to have a screwdriver capable of drilling through the drywall and into the stud. The good news is most available drills, even the older ones, can do this with no issue.

Furring strips, thin strips of wood or metal, are not always required for ceiling drywall installation. If the ceiling surface is even and in good condition, drywall can be directly attached to the ceiling joists using screws. However, furring strips become essential when dealing with irregular surfaces or when additional insulation or soundproofing is needed. They create a level substrate for attaching the drywall. Ultimately, the decision to use furring strips depends on the condition of the existing ceiling and the specific requirements of the project.

A jigsaw is commonly used to cut holes in drywall. It offers versatility and precision, making it suitable for creating circular or irregular openings. When equipped with the right blade, a jigsaw can swiftly and cleanly cut through drywall, making it a good choice for DIY projects.

If you're comfortable hanging drywall yourself, you may be comfortable finishing it. But it's worth noting that finishing drywall adds several steps to the process and a lot of waiting time. Hiring a drywall installer may be the way to go if you'd rather spend your time doing other things or are nervous about leaving a rough surface.
