"Very well, these guys are great, they seal everything right and load tons of insulation. My house is now at a R60. And this was not cheap, however I do not expect heating costs to go down for many years to come unless we all go solar."

"The 3 or 4 young men that did the insulation work were very polite. They covered the floors, furniture and were very careful doing this. When the job was finished, they vacuumed the rooms and rolled up the sheeting that was used to cover everything and took it with them. I would certainly recommend this company. I will give them a 10 out of 10. Great job from start to finish."

"The crew arrived as scheduled like a swarm of worker bees. They were diligent and efficient. The job was done quickly and the clean up was excellent. We were hard pressed to find any debris on the ground. I indicated N/A regarding the quality because we won't really know for about 15 years. We did get an excellent 50 year transferable warranty, however.  The only problem was that the owner was a bit hard to deal with. He is somewhat pushy and defensive when questioned. Also, the roofing seemed to go a little better than the insulation and gutters."

Drywall Insulation questions, answered by experts

You should wait at least 24 hours for drywall mud to dry before sanding or applying another coat. However, the exact drying time depends on several factors, including the thickness of the application, room temperature, humidity, and the type of compound used. Thicker layers, or projects in high humidity, may require 48 hours or more. Lightweight compounds tend to dry faster than heavier, all-purpose ones. You'll know the mud is ready when it feels completely dry and firm to the touch and has changed to a consistent light color. Sanding too early can cause smudging or gouges, so patience is essential for a smooth finish.

You can plaster over regular drywall, but it's essential to prepare the surface properly. Before plastering, the drywall should be clean, free of dust, and any loose or peeling paint should be removed. Applying a primer specifically designed for plastering can improve adhesion. Some professionals recommend applying a base coat of plaster or joint compound to create a better surface for the plaster to adhere to. Proper preparation ensures a smooth and durable plaster finish over regular drywall.

Depending on the place where the cutting error occurred, you may be able to fix it. Learning how to patch a hole in drywall is challenging, but if you can tape and mud drywall, you can do it. Having said that, patching is time consuming. Early in the installation process, you may find that it’s easier and far less time consuming to just start over with a new sheet of drywall, cutting a new hole in the right spot. You may be able to use part of the incorrectly cut piece elsewhere, so it’s not completely wasted.

Which style of corner bead you choose—whether metal or paper-faced—depends on your preference and if you’re comfortable using metal-cutting tools and a hammer. Metal bead offers superior strength and durability but its installation is slightly more involved. We’d say for most cases, it’s better to use metal bead but if you’re not comfortable working with metal, paper-faced bead will work just fine. 

Plaster provides a durable, soundproof, and moisture-resistant finish compared to drywall.
