    Been looking for a video just like this. I am a 71 yr old woman who will be attempting to duplicate these processes, all by herself. This is the only video, of the dozen I have watched, that addresses EVERYTHING that needs to be done, WHY it should be done that way, and teaches in an informed but easy to understand way. Thank you so very much! When cooler weather gets here, I will be making this happen.

      Thank you for the video. Our living room and kitchen were converted to cathedral ceiling over a decade ago, now the drywall compound and compound tape are pealing offmf the cathedral ceiling, im almost sure the conteactor didn't intall these ventitalion baffles, does anyone know if a "special" drywall , coumpound, coumpound tape is needed to prevent compound and tape from cracking and allow "some ventalation" through the drywall? , Or the lack of ventilation is the cause of the drywall compound cracking?

    Great job on a very clearly explained and demonstrated video about this. I now live in Scotland and we'd like to insulate our roof, but don't have a lot of height to work with. I guess we'll have to find out the code here for thickness of insulation. Our rafters are not as wide as yours so I think we'd need what I've seen on some other videos, like a metal frame that extends out from the rafters and holds the insulation back. We are trying to learn so maybe we can try to do some of it ourselves, builders are too busy and too expensive now since covid came. :-( Thanks for the video!
