SHLL 2 - Addressing Non Traditional Sidewalls

Wednesday, August 16, 2006  ·  8:30 AM - 10:00 AM

Blowing sidewall insulation is relatively straightforward once you get to the wall cavity. Find out how to get there faster, with fewer problems and missteps. What are the special tools, tricks, techniques, and knowledge that can make tough jobs routine? And once the wall is insulated, how do you get the siding back in place so the appearance and function are not impaired? Can you do interior access cost effectively, and more importantly, without turning your crew into professional house cleaners?
