Hey there. Just curious if anybody out there has just stapled up 6 mil vapour barrier to the bottom chord of the trusses and then used blown in insulation on top? I know drywalling first is a better idea but its a cost thing right now. I know of one person who has done this and it was fine...

Speedy Petey. The light cover pc will be snugged up against the siding "j" block. I will caulk as asap of it ever gets sunny and warm enough.

Hey there. I need to install my exterior lights before my final electrical inspection. Temperatures have been zero or slightly below. Caulking the base will be difficult due to cold. Will an uncaulked light short out from snow and rain? I have metal (damp location) light boxes. I have caulking...

TonkaJoe. Thanks for the link. Looks like a nice product. I have 3 doors to do so i would need 29' which would cost me well over 300$. I am going to try grinding first and if that fails i will consider the thresholds. Thanks.

I believe its 1/2 horsepower chamberlain.

Hey there. Just had overhead garage doors installed and they are leaking under the seal on the bottom when it rains. The seal does not compress much when the automatic door opener closes the door. Can this be adjusted? Spring too tight and not allowing the door to close down tight enough? Thanks.
