    Insulating garage they didn't put vapour barrier

    Believe me the way they did mine is REALLY bad, worse than the previous picture. I just thought it would be better considering it is a high-class 7000 square foot house. I'll update when i get some type of resolution.

    Insulating garage they didn't put vapour barrier

    It has been taped, but looks like ****. Clearly hired different drywall guys for the garage. Thats one more reason why i want the drywall taken. None of the joints are staggered in there, the taping is disgusting, and no vapour barrier. I just want it done so even if i end up having to throw...

    Insulating garage they didn't put vapour barrier

    Well the gas line is ran in there capped right now but a tube type radiant heater will eventually be installed. It could be -20 celsius outside and ill probably be heating it to around 15. Is this where the need for vapour barrier really comes into play?

    Insulating garage they didn't put vapour barrier

    I would want it put in just to be safe but now they have already drywalled. I dont want to get angry and say they have to take it down, its not right, and then turn out to be wrong. Clearly he doesnt want to do it because he said they dont put it in any of the garages they insulate. I am...

    Insulating garage they didn't put vapour barrier

    Hey, I live north of Toronto, Ontario and everything that is built around here gets a vapour barrier (6mil poly) after insulation, prior to drywall. My parents are building a house through a builder and the garage has gotten upgrades. ( thicker concrete for lift, capped gas line for heater, and...
