Get matched with top drywall insulation pros in Caryville, TN

"Everything went extremely well! The representative, Mr. Keith Hall, was excellent. He made my family and I feel very comfortable during this transition to Knoxville. I not only recommend Mr. Handyman of West Knoxville, but him as well. Absolutely loved the results as well."

"Hard working, skilled and fairly priced. Would use again."

"Thayer residential was extremely professional. Had a very impressive personality that allowed for an outstanding experience. Thayer residential communicated every step of the way over the projects with updates. Pricing was highly reasonable. Very professional and work was impressive. Would recommend this company for future projects."

"Below are pics of my back deck after this company did the staining. It is apparent the stain is uneven, was allowed to run down between the boards, and there are areas with no coverage at all. I reached out to Jonas, asking what he was going to do about the results. I received no response from him. Another contractor has told me the whole deck has to be sanded and restained."

"He is wonderful. Very high quality work. Works quickly and efficiently."

"We hired Guardian to install our security system at our Washington, DC, business. The service and quality of the work was horrible. We had cameras and an alarm system installed; it was a relatively large system. They outsource most of the work to various vendors. They could not manage their vendors; what was supposed to take a week took two months. The sales rep did not return calls, and you could never get anyone in management on the phone. Random people would show up at unannounced times. The few things that an actual Guardian employee did were they made a huge mess of our newly remodeled office and were rude to our staff. We have offices in five markets across the US and have high security at each; we have never had such a poor experience."

"I highly recommend Retrofoam; it works. If you have an older home and need to get it insulated, you have two options. 1. Remove the walls and add insulation. 2. Retrofoam We chose retro foam and are very pleased with our decision. Pros: Our home gets warm faster. Our home remains warm longer. Rooms that were once colder than others are the same temperature as the rest of the house. Wind drafts through the house eliminated. Wind drafts around windows eliminated. Outside noise, reduced significantly, I mean reduced by a lot. We can now sleep with no white noise. Amazing. Overall improvement on the quality of living, physically and audibly. Cons: The inside install is messy. (These guys try hard to minimize the mess) Outside install was much less hassle and messy. (The installers do a great job cleaning up their work area.) How It Works Retrofoam is mixed from powder and water. It has a similar consistency to shaving foam from a can. It is pumped into a void or cavity inside your wall, making its way around wires, plumbing, and other obstacles in the wall. It hardens and maintains its form and placement—the tiny air bubbles in the foam help create the insulating properties. It has a low odor when installed and is non-existent after a few days. Our Story Our house was built in the 1950s with no insulation. Our brick home was constructed with hollow walls and void cavities around all of the windows. Twice windows have been replaced, once to replace the original single-pane windows and the second time to replace some storm damaged windows. Each time the windows were replaced, no insulation was installed around the window frames, allowing wind to get into the home. Combining that with the hollow walls added years of expensive utility bills and uncomfortable living space. The house temperature was so unevenly controlled, we needed to wear jackets in one area and t-shirts in the next room. We are now remodeling our home. We need a way to insulate without removing all of the inside walls. After doing research, I found Retrofoam as an option. After meeting with Mr. Eddie Sanford, I quickly decided to install the Retrofoam in my house. Eddie made the process easy to understand and helped us devise a plan to prepare for the installation. Eddie's comprehensive strategy was quickly put into motion, and the process began. Our Retrofoam project included all of the exterior walls of the upstairs living space. Mostly brick with hollow walls and old school plaster walls inside. One smaller area, 10' x 6', was constructed of block and was filled with Retrofoam upstairs and downstairs. About 1/2 of the house was accessed from the inside and the other from the outside. The outdoor installation was much more manageable and cleaner for me as the homeowner. However, not all sections of the house could be accessed from the outside. When the installation crew arrived, Robert, George, and Brandon walked through my home. Robert discussed the approach and how the installation would proceed. Before beginning, they covered most everything with plastic and began drilling holes for the installation. The holes drilled into the inside walls are 2.5 inches allowing the large diameter hose to easily access the cavity. Holes from the outside are about the size of a dime. In our case, the outside holes were made through the mortar joints. The foam is pumped into the outer holes using a brass fitting and higher pressure to fill the cavities. After completion, the outside holes were plugged using mortar and drywall compound for the interior. After the foam was mixed, they brought in the hose and installation apparatus. The hose was inserted into a 2.5" hole in the inside wall. The foam was sprayed into each cavity between the studs. Working the foam into the wall cavity from the bottom up and then from the top down. During the installation, the foam can be heard filling the hole. The installation took roughly three days. The installation crew was courteous, careful, extremely knowledgeable, trustworthy, humorous at times, and professional. Even with the typical mess that comes with construction projects, I truly enjoyed the crew's company. I found their work ethic to be top-notch. Upon completing the job, the crew chief Robert did a thorough inspection and cleanup then asked if I was satisfied. After the install, we noticed an immediate reduction in the outside road noise from passing traffic. So much reduction that we no longer use a fan for white noise in our bedroom at night. We also noticed that our house would hold heat much longer. The first night we set the heat to 62 before bed. The room temp was around 68 degrees; by morning, the temp was still 64, and the heat had not kicked on all night long. This is so uncommon; typically, the heat kicks on several times through the night. The two other areas we noticed immediately were the upstairs laundry room and downstairs bathroom. In the past, both rooms were noticeably colder than the rest of the house, requiring the use of small heaters. Now both rooms are the same temperature as the other rooms in the home. We are delighted with our decision to install the Retrofoam, and I am confident you will be too."

"I had Premier Handyman install a Tesla wall charger for me along with another breaker for it and they were excellent as well as extremely fast! This wasn't the first instance I've used the company and they always do exactly what they say, when they say and at an affordable price for such quality work! I would highly recommend using The Premier Handyman for any services; electrical, plumbing, carpentry, roofing, you name it. The owner has an honest company that provides good work for the community."

"Custom renovations went above and beyond. They did a good job"

"After using this company for 10 years on my 2 properties, because they did a good install at my Dad's, I find out that every single tech that came out over the years didn't do proper maintenance. I never went out and watched, I never looked inside at the coil and the heat. None of them took out the coil and cleaned it. The heat is filthy. The coil area is so rusty from condensation due to the drain filling up with rust and backing up and spilling down into the heat underneath and rusting out a motor. Every time, I asked why was my air causing so much water, they would tell me it was hot in the garage! No checking my coil. No cleaning my drain as they said they did. No cleaning the heat. Last night I saw this with my own eyes when a new company I hired to fix the heat and look at the air coil pulled the cover and showed me the mess. Told me I should've been keeping up with maintenance on it. Well, I was, only City Heat and Air techs were lying to me about performing the maintenace properly. The last straw was I always ask for a tech at my other property that is knowledgable with Apollo system and the last one they sent, I had to explain how it operates. In fact, that is the reason I called another company. If you use them for maintenance, go out there and watch them."
