    I see why you love this insulation company. I've seen a number of RUclips spray foam jobs where the owners are left scrapping the foam off the ends of the wood frames before any further work could be done. This company really takes pride in the details and professional end product.
    Thank you for your explanation of the differences between the different insulation products commonly available today.

    Just started watching and I’m impressed that they are cleaning the beams from overspray. I’ve watched this type of insulation on other builds and have never seen them do anything about overspray except leaving it to the owners to clean. Nice!

      You put those vents and then Insulate on top of them!
      They have no adequate air flow from the bottom to the top. I guess they'll be opening their windows when they're hot!

    That spray crew is exceptional and could teach others in their profession how the job should be done. Scraping the over-spray off your studs and other places you need to hang sheetrock is a time saver for you. Then, cleaning up after and leaving everything like they found it was wonderful. The crew I had do mine left a mess and I had to do all of the scraping off myself, which took me several days of extra work.

    A fine job done there. At last you can make some moves to making that building fully useful. Only snag I can foresee is your suppliers probably won't be able to meet their original dates, and probably can not keep up with you for a while. It will give a chance to get over this initial push though, and plan ahead future supply needs, in other buildings as well as this one. Be well. 🙂
