My name is Shane Nelson I am the owner of DISCOUNT RENOVATIONS. We have been in business for 16 Years and we pretty much can do it all. The only service we do not provide is carpet. We specialize in bathroom and kitchen remodels. We are very well trained with plumbing, tile, electrical, drywall, painting, carpentry, roofing, and I could keep going. So instead of calling 5 different contractors for one job we can handle it all. Thanks for your time and consideration. Feel free to call 336-655-8402 anytime for questions or appointments. My workmanship speaks for itself. If you want quality work at a fair price then I'm your guy. I am not the cheapest person out there and for good reason. I stay busy so if you are needing work done immediately I'm probably not going to be that guy. I will try my best to accommodate your situation, and can typically schedule site visits within a few weeks. I work long hours to try and get the job done in a timely manner. Thanks for your time and consideration. Please text me or call at 336 655 8402. I will see a text message and respond to it the fastest for I work all day until about 7 or 8 so I do not answer the phone unless needed while putting 100% focus on each job.
"I found Shane Nelson on Angi's List. I contacted him about doing an addition onto a mobile home. On Monday January 6 He brought his tool trailer. On Tuesday January 7, after dark, he brought a small load of lumbar and a machine. I paid him $15,000.00 on January 7. After I paid him, I asked him if he was licensed to work in Virginia and he said no. I asked him if he would be able to get a permit and do the job and he told me it shouldn't be a problem. On Wednesday January 8, I called the building office of Virginia, they told me an unlicensed contractor would not be able to get a building permit. I tried to call and text him several times. On Wednesday afternoon I finally talked to him and asked him if I could just pay him a little amount of money for his time and trouble. I told him to not do anything else concerning the job until I decided what we were going to do about the building permits. I told him I would let him know Thursday morning what I wanted to do. I tried calling him 8:30 am and called several times and also send text messages. He texted me late Thursday evening he text and told me he was coming and bringing material. I texted him and asked him what about the permits. I told him we needed to talk about what is going on. I tried calling him several times and he called me back and told me he had talked to the permit office. He said the permit office told him that I could get the permit in my name and tell the permit office that I was having a family member to do the addition and that I was not going to pay the family member any money. I told him that I did not want the responsibility of the permits or the job and that is why I had hired him. He told me to not worry about permits and that I was overreacting. He said no one would know anything about it. My husband passed away in August from Cancer and Shane told me that if anything came up with it that I could say my husband did the work before he passed away. I told him I was not telling a lie about my dead husband. I asked Shane if I could just pay him $5000.00 for his troubles and if he would give me $10,000.00 back and we could call the job off. He told me that he did not have any of my money left. He said he spent it all on material from a scrap yard that had a no return policy. Then he said it was my fault that I called the job off and he had put off work to do my job for next to nothing. \ He estimated the job at $43,000.00 and that was with him just doing outside of the addition and that price was with me doing the inside work. I told him that my husband sold his car and truck before he passed with cancer so I could have some money and that's the money I gave Shane. I begged him for 10,000.00 back and that I would give him 5,000.00. I told him that I was a sick widow woman with a heart condition, and I begged him to give my money back. He said that money was his for his work and material. I asked him why did you buy material after I told you that I wasn't going to do the job without permits. I have all text messages and pictures of the materials that he brought. I still have not received any money back from him."

Blown in insulation install or upgrades FAQs
Blown-in insulation offers several advantages over traditional insulation methods. This insulation option is fire-resistant, long-lasting, and more energy-efficient, providing superior thermal regulation for your home. Blown-in insulation fills gaps in walls and hard-to-reach spaces effectively, reduces noise transmission, enhances indoor comfort, and can increase your home's overall resale value.
Installing blown-in insulation in a 1,500-square-foot house costs between $2,625 and $11,250. Your total cost will depend on the type of insulation material you choose, labor rates in your area, and any additional work required, such as mold remediation or electrical adjustments. Hiring an insulation professional ensures proper installation, and labor costs typically range from $40 to $70 per hour. Getting detailed quotes can help you budget accurately for your project.
The cost of spray foam insulation ranges from $0.45 to $1.50 per board foot, while blown-in cellulose insulation costs between $0.60 and $2.30 per square foot. Spray foam insulation is less expensive per unit and offers excellent air sealing properties with higher R-values. Blown-in cellulose, made from recycled materials, is slightly more expensive but provides superior soundproofing and is environmentally friendly. Choosing between the two depends on your specific insulation needs, budget, and preference for eco-friendly materials.
Blown-in insulation is generally cheaper to install than batts. Batt and roll insulation can cost up to $2,500 on average, whereas blown-in insulation often results in cost savings due to lower material and labor expenses. Additionally, blown-in insulation fills gaps and irregular spaces more effectively, improving energy efficiency. Opting for blown-in insulation can save you money while providing better coverage and performance compared to traditional batts.
The best R-value for blown-in insulation depends on the area of your home you're insulating and your specific climate zone. Generally, attics in the U.S. should have an R-value between 30 and 60, with colder regions requiring higher values for optimal energy efficiency. Walls typically need R-values between 13 and 21. Consulting with a professional can help determine the ideal R-value for your insulation project based on local building codes and energy requirements.
Your decision to remove old insulation before installing blown-in insulation depends on the condition of the existing material. If the old insulation is damaged, moldy, or infested with pests, you should remove it to prevent health hazards and ensure effectiveness. If the existing insulation is in good condition, you can often install blown-in insulation over it to increase R-value and improve efficiency. Consulting with a professional insulation installer can help determine the best course of action for your specific situation.
