Our distinction is the quality of service we bring to our customers. Accurate knowledge of our trade combined with ability is what makes us true professionals. Above all, we are watchful of our customers interests, and make their concerns the basis of our business.
"We had 6 rooms of ceiling drywall replaced along with installing 16 canned lights and 6 ceiling fans. Johnny was not the best to work with, was confusion on some days who would be showing up, if anyone. When they were initially finished, almost all of the ceiling lights had some blemishes that were visible outside of the light cover. The joint of the ceiling and walls in multiple rooms was already showing a lot of cracking and separating when they were finished. One wall with wood paneling had new quarter round installed, but it was stuck to the ceiling with liquid nails, not a nail gun. It also uses 3 different pieces that are either different sizes or colors and we have liquid nails residue on the brand new ceiling along with 2 odd screws used to keep it installed. Johnny was not the most attentive at times. It took 2 weeks after we gave him our deposit check before we heard anything from him on a start date and that was only after we texted him for an update. So much more to say..."

Batt insulation excels in vertical installations because it remains firmly in place and delivers consistent thermal performance. Blown-in insulation performs exceptionally in spaces such as attics, efficiently filling gaps in irregular areas.
Employing both insulation types according to their strengths enhances your home’s overall energy efficiency and comfort by providing a tailored solution for every space.
Start by measuring the square footage of the space, then match that area with the insulation thickness you need to hit your target R-value. Add a buffer for waste and odd-shaped spots so every cavity is covered.
Once you have a rough count, run it past a local insulation pro—their on-site advice will fine-tune the numbers and help you avoid costly miscalculations.
Old insulation that is dry, intact, and mold-free does not require removal before adding new insulation; stacking new insulation over it maintains effective thermal performance and boosts energy efficiency.
If the insulation is damp, moldy, or deteriorated, removal is necessary to eliminate health risks and ensure maximum effectiveness of the new layer. A professional insulation contractor will assess your situation and recommend the most effective solution.
Installing insulation in an average-sized home using batts or boards requires five to 12 hours. Using spray foam or blown-in insulation requires two to five hours. These timeframes are determined by the area’s size, accessibility, and whether old insulation must be removed.
Complex projects and hard-to-reach spaces demand extra time. Hiring an experienced insulation professional ensures that the installation is completed efficiently and correctly.
Insulation is measured by R-value, which defines how effectively it resists heat flow. A higher R-value provides superior thermal resistance, ensuring your home remains warm in winter and cool in summer.
Choosing the correct R-value is essential for maximizing energy efficiency and comfort, and it directly impacts long-term utility savings. Professional guidance determines the optimal R-value for your specific climate.
