- How To Insulate & Baffle A Shed Roof | 12x24 Tiny Home Semi-Off Grid DIY Shed to House Conversion
Today we take a quick trip out to The Shottages to put in insulation in the boys' bunkhouse. While there, we will cook a simple grilled ham and cheese sandwich over the campfire, eat down by the water, and then get to work. While this is not intended to be "How To" video from a professional insulation installer, I do show how to insulate and baffle our shed roof to allow for adequate airflow from the soffit vents up to the ridge cap. I hope these steps will prevent moisture build up on the insulation and ceiling and, therefore, reduce the chance of mold or mildew growing.

Stay tuned for more videos each week!
I'm a retired AF Vet also. Thanks for your service!!
I watch both of those channels!
Came to learn how to insulate ended up learning how to make a breakfast Sandwich 😅
Really well done. One caution keep mask on when cutting insulation around light fixture. Keep the series coming.
No doubt about that mask. I didn't want my voice muffled for what I was saying, but I could've probably done it, then showed and discussed after. Thanks for watching! Love you, guys!
Yes I learned some things!! This is just awesome. I have a 12 by 20 coming any day before May 15th so I'm all about this. U did a great job!!
Awesome! It's really exciting to finally get your place you've probably been dreaming about for a while. I know we were. Thanks for watching!
That sandwich looks AMAZING!! I absolutely love that we can motivate & inspire- That is what RUclips is all about❤️ We love @trerunswild too!! The insulation is looking awesome. Your new channel is great!! Keep the videos coming!!
It was tasty and I love trying more things on the campfire. The smell and sound of it is so relaxing.
Thanks for all the support!
@@mehardies3999 It looked tasty! We will for sure be trying that. Thanks for keeping us entertained until we can get back to the Shabin’. Lol a little jealous too😂 We are very high centered in Nebraska currently.
@@JLGWoodscapes Suck! Hopefully soon.
0:01 Will be waiting for that t-shirt! 😄
Ha ha! The irony is...it'll probably take forever for me to get around to making the t-shirt. I guess even that took longer than I thought.🤣
Thanks, I'll order my baffles and I'll use R15 for my ceiling in SC
Great job on the video. Just what I need for my project.
Thanks for watching! Can't wait to see your solution to the roof challenge.
Awesome!!! Love the tee shirt idea 😂😂. I could listen to that water all day. So relaxing. That was a lot of work. And that ham and cheese grill cheese looked delicious 🤤 and made on a camp fire. Can you say tiny bit jealous 😂. Love ya 💜
Thanks! Soon enough, you'll be eating campfire grilled ham & cheeses. Probably just grilled cheese so you can gum it! Ha ha. 😆
Tiny bit jealous...... Yes indead!
Cheers!
@@kimikae4170 Kimi, thanks for following along! Do you have plans to build, or already have, a shed to house?
Very helpful 👌
i get itchy just watching you do it😄
Good video enjoyed every minute. Keep em coming
Thanks, Ruben! We're glad you found us and we'll definitely keep them coming.
Learning so much from you thank you for the videos keep it up
Thanks for watching. We're having fun building.
Great personality!
I'm waiting for that t-shirt🤣
This is the perfect sized home for me. I plan to add a 8 x 12 sunroom on one end. This will make it 12 x 32. I just need to find the right shell to purchase.
Baffle, insulation and red resin paper. Boom. No no mold of condensation issues. The building can breathe
Thanks for the tip! I'm not familiar with red resin paper, so I'll need to look it up and learn about it. Have a great week!
Perhaps rosin paper?
Good video. I also enjoy watching Tre runs-wild. One thing i noticed on your video is that you stapled the insulation to the 2 inch side of the 2x4 rafter. I believe the standard is to staple it to the inside (4 inch face) so that when you put in the tongue and groove or dry wall, the staples don't push out the siding in certain areas where they arent fully pushed into the 2x4. Stapling into the inside of the 2x4 gives your siding a flush mount. Probably not a big deal but something i learned. Tre runs-wild also did the staples the same way you did
Thanks! I think you have the option of either. This weekend I put up pine T&G over the stapled faces and the staples weren't noticeable at all.
@@mehardies3999 good to know thanks!
@@mehardies3999 Looking forward to that video
Thanks for all info I have same project thank you
Thanks for watching! Good luck with your project!
awesome video. I am actually doing mine as we speak this week. What if you shed doesn't have cross bars for the peek. A. Will I still need baffling? There will be no crawl space. B. Can I go all the way up to the peak?
What did you do? I have the same situation. I got a 14x32 cabin
Yes what did you end up doing? Can you elaborate? I will have to do the same when our 2 story gambler barn roofed shed arrives. I chose that option for more unimpeded head room on the 2nd floor but now I'm thinking I'll need to run the baffles all the way to the ridge vent at the peak 😒
Do you need to vent the end panels to outside for airflow???
Thank you
I know you put baffles for a attic but why is it necessary for the shed ceiling are you closing it up with plywood is that the reason why? Thanks for the videos!!!!
I would say he will finish up putting a
sheetrock there; much easier to work with then cutting plywood etc.
Super
So my question is .I recently created a division on my garage with play wood like the room in the house . My question is if I just lay that on top of the plywood will it help any or it’s a waster of money if it’s not install into the frame of the roof ?
👍👍👍
Should the baffle extend up to the ridgid vent, then in sulation. Getting a 16 x 20 cabin porchj regular pitch roof, not the barn roof like you have that provides an air pocket to rigid vent from Graceland. thanks sooo much for videos.
what can I do for insulation in my shed roof that is spaced at 23" studs instead of 16" on center?
So I do not have to run baffle all the way up to the vent line at the top of my ceiling, I’m currently doing my wall insulation and about to have to buy baffles my roof is 24 on center
There wasn't any mention or discussion of the vents needed at the soffit area unless I missed it. The air needs to go IN the bottom then flow out the top ridge vent essentially natural convection. The paper facing is also a bad vapor barrier. Really a better idea to use unfaced insulation and plastic. Tape around everything. There's vapor liner things for the electrical boxes etc. Over lap the joints 12" and tape it. Otherwise the warm moist air can still leak up in there creating problems. The idea behind the vapor barrier is a continuous sheet to stop the water vapor from passing through it. The wall covering doesn't do it. The holes and gaps of paper facing doesn't do it.
Good tips! We do have soffit vents, so that should help with the airflow. I will get the tape, as you mentioned, and tape the seams. Thanks for watching!
@@mehardies3999 Do you need to do a soffit vent at the end of each run? That would be a lot of vents...just wondering as I'm doing a similar project!
@@mozimiga Yes, you should do one in each rafter bay because they all need to breathe. Good luck!
How do you maintain the R-30 value at the sloped ceiling area that’s only 31/2” (minus vent thickness) deep?
Also, do you heat the cabin?
Wish I knew the cheapest. This style works well on a shed or a mansion. Not sure I will ever need insulation.
Did you have a ridge vent and soffit vent?
You should change the title to HOW BILL INSULATES & BAFFLE and skip to minute 5 if you don't wanna see me preparing a sandwich...
Stapling the baffles to the roof decking, does that not make a hole on the roof for a possible leak? Or do I need to get specific short staples?
It shouldn't go through as long as you get staples that are about 7/16ths or less (usual thickness of roof sheathing). Good luck!
What the heck? Baffles??? I thot i was going to buy the pink stuff and throw it up there. What, now we need " baffles"? Which ive never heard of but im just a diy woman! What do i know. My shed comes next week. They build it but we will do the finish work. One thing most important to me is to put wire mesh along the bottom frame and trench it way down and out so no critters can't get underneath! Ive got wire mesh and landscape fabric down already under the gravel pad that was built. But i am envisioning me trying to nail that wire mesh down to that base plate while they are trying to build the shed! That wont work! Ill probably have to wait til they are done and go back up under and do that. Its important or you'll have critters living under it!
Everything takes longer than planned and expected
You have 22" baffles, you think, and they have a perforation down the middle and you think tearing them in half makes them 14" wide? You think 22/2=14?!
You are cutting right under that insulation. No resp mask or eye protection. I can see stuff falling on you. You should be more careful.
What's the sense of wearing a mask if you're not going to wear a mask
Looks like you may have black mold already growing 😳
What happened to this guy ? He seems to have disappeared
INSULATION INSTALLED BACKWARDS
Thanks for watching. Please explain your understanding of the correct way for faced insulation.
He installed it correctly. The paper faces toward the inside. It acts as a vapor barrier and specifies the R-rating of the insulation, which is helpful for inspections or future reference.
Lol, If I’d hire you only if YOU pay me! 😂
Every building on the planet not fully "on the grid" is "semi-off grid." Grow up
You think you're "semi-off grid" in a building made of store-bought materials WITH an electric meter installing store-bought materials with a store-bought power tool?!
What "grid" do you think that term refers to?
Bro. Skip the grilled cheese. Ain't nobody looking for that
