Already two minutes in the video and you've done an excellent explaining the r value and thickness. Most people skip over the "basic" stuff but it's not basic if it's your first time. Thanks dude!
I do not own a home neither make any kind of Howe improvement work, I just like this type of videos. Some how it relaxes me seeing how it all fits well.
Great video Shannon...Not too many builders want to handle this type of insulation to do a video. Thank you for sharing your talent and taking the time to show those interested how to properly insulate using the fiberglass pink..I'm scratching just watching you. Dber
Your vids have been very helpful to me in the addition I am building. Couldn't get a contractor, all busy, so have to do it myself. So using your vids along with some advice from carpenters I am plugging along fine. Thanks
I really like how you do your videos. you do a very good job at explaining and showing how to do stuff (in this case put up insulation). keep up the great work!
I just did this in a very large space with about a minute's worth of guiding first. Now I watch your video! One thing, those extra pieces are handy to tuck into unintended gaps. I was using Roxul.
Excellent video! After 5min I couldn't wait to subscribe. I especially like the detailed, step-by-step instructions, pro-tips, and no over the top presentation style.
Update: It came out great! Emphasis on having a good knife (Long enough to cut through the insulation, not a box cutter) and put a piece of cardboard below where you'll be cutting your insulation so you dont scratch the floor. Thank you again!
Shannon, I've been putting up some rock wool and I watched a UA-cam video where the guy had a long bread knife-looking knife to cut the rock wool. I don't have that long knife but I have an electric bread knife that I bought at Salvation Army to cut foam for a reupholster job I was doing. I used that knife and it worked so well. I could easily cut a half-inch thickness and it was fast. I am sure you know this but I wanted to tell you how good an old bread knife is for cutting rock wool insulation in case you've never tried it.
Okay, I have something else to tell you that I just discovered. I am pulling out an old cast iron toilet flange and I followed some instructions I've seen on YT about drilling a series of holes in the lead around the circumference of the ID of the flange and OD of the stack. The idea is to use a punch to force out the lead. I was having trouble with that method so I got a 2.5 inch wood screw and drove it in into the lead until about 1/4 inch was sticking above the flange. Then, I used a claw hammer to pry the lead out - in chunks about 2 to 2.5 inches long. I was finished in about 2 minutes. @@HouseImprovements
Thank you for posting your videos, they are really informative and give me confidence I will do a proper job installing a vapour barrier and insulating my apartment. Many thanks for your time.
Thank you for this video. I am building the external walls and windows around my porch. Question: do I need to install the vapor barrier above the fiberglass insulation? This porch will have the door and there is another door to the house. This porch will not be heated and the external walls will be made from the OSB and siding and the internal walls from the plywood.
good video, but I can't say that I 100% agree with you corner tutorial near the end... only because most DIY people would frame a corner like that, long before ever even thinking about insulating... and would be forced to remove a stud in order to insulate. a better corner framing method (L corner) would allow for full access for insulation at a later time.
I just joined your website but couldn't find my topic when I did a search. Question...I bought an old home in northern ontario where it gets damned cold! ...-40 in jan/february...I have a cantilevered mudroom on the front of the house with asbestos insulation packed into the rough cut 2x4 outside walls and shiplap 1x6 boards on the inside walls. The problem is the floor...no insulation! The floor is about 2 1/2" below the doorstep. The floor joists are rough cut 2x8s. I can crawl under and insulate/vbarrier the exposed underside or do what I did to my back mudroom...rip 2x4s 1 1/2" , nail them down at 16" centers, insulate with roxul and vbarrier, then put 1/2" plywood and laminate flooring down. It works and looks great but not much r-value! Should I crawl under😠 and insulate the bottom side? I'll get the r-value but what a pain in the ass!😠😠😠 Thx
would be interested to see you do something on a bonus room. Have a knee wall and ceiling to insulate in finish out in our house. I have installed batt insulation before but wondering if i need something different for the ceilings and some say do an air gap others say you dont' need one.
I put batt with a paper barrier in my shed and galvanized corrugated tin on the in side so the edges are not completely sealed I just didn't know if that would let to much fibers in the air opening and closing the door?
Hi Shannon, great videos I learned so many tricks from your videos. Thank you. I am replacing one wall in my basement because of water damage through the window. Window is now replaced. The house is old and they did not use rigid foam back then. Just fiberglass and vapor barrier. I am in Ottawa Canada, so it is cold here and insulation is important. Is there a point for me to install rigid foam between the concrete and the fiberglass. Remember I am replacing only one wall of a room. If I use rigid foam for this wall it will be the only place in whole basement. Adjacent rooms even adjacent wall does not have rigid foam. Should I bother putting the rigid foam?
Hi Shannon, I'm building a pole barn house and have the walls studded out now. The building was erected completely wrapped with an R7 radiant barrior, directly under the metal siding (roof and walls). There are no eves, thus no eve vents, with a 5 inch ridge vent. The ceiling is vaulted and 18 feet at the peak inside. Should I install a vapor barrior on the interior once the bat insulation is in? The total R value for the whole house will be R26, but my walls are very thick and will have a dead air space of about 4 inches between the bat and the radiant barrior. I live in southern Louisiana so its more about cooling than a heating.
I have an unfinished garage with stucco exterior walls. I want to insulate it but I'm not sure which type to use? The stucco also has this paper on it.
Making insulating pole will make the job 10 times easier. And measuring you can insert the fiberglass and see if you need to cut it or not along the studs by following the fiberglass in half and then cut along the studs the width that you need by eyeballing it which is effective and 10 times faster
Thanks... I have a question. What you explained at the end with the mock corner and insulating that corner, how would you insulate the corner if it was already built. I have a space about ¾" that is a difficult spot. How would you do it? I dont want to spray because if I dont get it all then itll be a problem later......
Thank you so much for this great video. I learned a lot from your channel. In my basement, the builder covered walls with a thick blanket of Batt fiber glass and vapor barrier. Would you recommend that I should remove it and start with the foam and proceed as you showed in this video ? My home was built 7 years ago Thanks again
I have the same situation and cant find a proper answer. THe builder istalled the yellow batt insulation throughout the basement walls with a clear vapor barrier plastic over it. Not sure if I need to remove and frame walls and then put newer insulation and just dry wall over it without the plastic barrier? what did you do?
Awesome vid! Thanks Shannon. I'm working on a basement and trying to figure out if I should add more insulation where my framing studs sit 3-4 inches from the wall (the walls aren't very straight) or just leave an air pocket between the wall and the insulation. No idea if there's ever been water/moisture issues in the house, and I can't decide whether the air pocket would help mold grow, or eliminate it because there's a pocket to dry the moisture from the walls. Any ideas?
Hi. So I've seen your video's of insulating a basement. My question is. If I use the 1inch ridgide foam board do I have to frame after and just use the foam board to help keep the basement warm?
You really should and also rigid foam should not be left exposed, it needs to be covered by at least 1/2" drywall to protect it from fire since it gives off a toxic smoke when burned.
does the framing have to be the normal 2 X 4 or to keep the space i have can i use furring strtps?? and make like a grid system and the apply drywall?@@HouseImprovements
Normally I like to leave 1" to 1/2" because the basement concrete walls may not be plumb or straight . So by leaving some room you have some space for differences.
If I am putting a wall which divides living space from storage space, does that wall need insulated? I would like that storage space to stay cool, so I thought insulating the dividing wall might achieve that.
P.S It's interesting when cutting a little piece out to make a snug fit behind the blocking @ 17.00 - there is mention of compression losing the R Value but by splitting the Batt behind the Blocking you lose that FULL R Value anyway ... right?
When you do not cut out the piece you actually compress a larger section of insulation on each outer edge of the blocking as well so you end up with a larger area with reduced R value.
Great demonstration! Thanks for that. Is that plastic barrier really necessary depending on geographic location? I’m in lower Texas where it’s humid often. Although my house that was built in 1990 has it, I’ve heard arguments for not putting it in in my environment. The claim is that condensate will form when warm meets cold, and will drip, saturate your framing and rot the wood over time. I’m redoing my kitchen and replacing the insulation and sheet rock and debating the safest way to go.
I do not think you would actually have an interior vapour barrier because of your climate. In NorthAmerica it would mainly be the colder states and Canada
Shannon, i really like that long bladed knife you have that cuts that insulation like butter! we have to do a whole house! What knife is it and where can we get a couple? Thanks! Love your video's.!
Well done! I'm gonna insulate an exterior garage wall soon. Just wondering why you don't use the paper backed insulation? Do you need a different type of vapor barrier in Canada or for the basement walls? Coldest it gets here in So. California where I am is around 35 F. and it's just a garage so not too worried about the tiny air gaps etc.
+William Tarazona This actually was a basement . We attached rigid foam first to concrete and have a video describing that on our channel with many others, check it out. ua-cam.com/users/HouseImprovementsvideos?view_as=public
Hey Shannon what if I'm doing my attic with a pitched roof? Will the Batt stay in just with a tight fit or will I need some kind of glue or something? Thanks for all your videos they really help us!
They should stay in with friction until the poly is added. If you get the odd one that does not wanna stay just add a couple framing nails in side of joist so the insulation sits down on them to help hold it up.
great vid. but two things: R-5 foam on the interior cement wall in canada (NO, NO). Vapour barrier in a basement wall (NO, NO). Use R-10 foam and pink (or roxul) with NO vapour barrier. take care.
The exacto knife bag slice move at 4:30, to a chef's kiss of expansion to two even piles that " I'll just move over here". Haha. Well done sir.
Already two minutes in the video and you've done an excellent explaining the r value and thickness. Most people skip over the "basic" stuff but it's not basic if it's your first time.

I've always wondered how to handle the corners, especially in the basement insulation process. Thanks for the extra explanation here.

Excellent instructions. i am watching right now while insulating my internal kitchen walls, thank you!
This was a good vid. Not too short, not too long. Perfect.
glad to hear
Good job i volunteered myself for a job like this never having done it before and now I feel confident I’ll do well

Great video! Thank you. I now feel comfortable to do my small project.
You are a real artist, love your video. You explain things clearly! Thanks
thanks so much for your videos bc I just bought a foreclosure and it seems as if I will have to do most of the work myself

I insulate the outside corners just before I sheet the outside. Also some walls will get insulated just before sheeting.

Thank you for detailed explanation. Appreciate the great work!
Thank you very much for your tutorials. Your videos always provide inspiration for my journey to becoming a practitioner. :D
Hi Shannon, Question, if you were RE-insulating, how would you handle that corner?
nice video, do you have a follow up on putting up the plastic ?
Very good Sir thanks and funny at the end lol let’s start over 😂
Hey Shannon! Can you use rigid foam and pink batt insulation without the poly vapor barrier or is it necessary for this particular system to work?
I keep finding videos where some use poly before they drywall and some do not

Where do you get the outlet vapor barriers. I've never been able to find them. Great video as always!
locally here our lumber stores and big box stores have them in the electrical supplies area.
I cut using 7" kitchen knife. Works great for cutting thicker
If I am putting a wall which divides living space from storage space, does that wall need insulated? I would like that storage space to stay cool, so I thought insulating the dividing wall might achieve that.
you could do that.

@@HouseImprovements, Wow! Record time reply! Absolutely excellent channel! Thanks for that info!
Any downfall of using foam board and then faced batts behind the wall with paper facing the interior of the home?
No obnoxious bullshit just the info I needed. thanks
Thanks Shannon, big help. Thumbs up...
Do you need to use a staple gun or something to secure the insulation in place?
I usually use the paper sided fiberglass when I don't use solid open or closed cell. But it looks like I've never done the fiberglass right...
Shannon, i really like that long bladed knife you have that cuts that insulation like butter! we have to do a whole house! What knife is it and where can we get a couple?

You bet
18:31 famous last words.
How do I put the insulation into the inside corner when the studs are already there? Its already fully framed and I have to redo the insulation
pull the one stud if you need to.
