time for a bit of an update.....
Closed on the house two weeks ago and the projects are coming fast.
I am updating the bathroom and kitchen and finding great deals on CL for cabinets and things I need. In the process of projects I have taken out three small single plane windows and found that the house is aluminum siding right on 4 hole cinder block (8") and then 2x2" strips on the walls and then 3/8" or 1/2" drywall. From what I can tell the walls are non insulated!
I am just starting the wiring upgrades and will also be re doing most if not all of the pluming (supply and drain) in the house.
What are peoples thoughts on putting plastic down on top of the dirt in the craw space?
If I decide to redo the siding I was thinking of putting 2" of ridged foam on the outside (glued to the wall). but I am not sure how to attach lap siding on top of that? Ideas that keep the wall thickens from getting huge?
