So nice to see you doing interior walls for soundproofing, you won't regret it ! Nice surprise clip!

[@BusHuxley]

Thanks a lot. I dont think i will.

[@joer6248]

Wow, Nicole definitely did a good job on that insulation. It looks like you're insulating the interior walls as well. That will make for a very quiet home.

[@BusHuxley]

Thanks a lot! I agree, she did a fantastic job.

[@NorthwestSawyer]

Wwwwwwwow!! What an incredible feeling this must be. And perfect timing. Very nicely done, Sir! Like fitted sheets on every wall and ceiling. It was great to have the help of your triplets. It’ll be move in day before you know it!

[@BusHuxley]

It is an incredible feeling! It is so, so freakin quiet and so warm. Its a yeti cooler! yes, once in a while my two schizophrenic helpers show up for a shot or two. They are wildly kind and useful and never swear!

[@NorthwestSawyer]

@@BusHuxley hahahaha! Good help is hard to find. I look forward to your continued progress.

[@d.muller1854]

First! Things look great. Your hard work shows in all that you do. Well done sir.

[@BusHuxley]

Good morning sir! Glad that youre still checking in. Thank you

[@robertfortune1458]

Very nice! Just wait until the sheet rock is in place; it all makes so much difference in the feel of a home. Kudos to the lady for doing this while so very pregnant.

[@BusHuxley]

She is amazing. I cant wait for the rock to be up. Cooking with onions now. Just ordered flooring for downstairs.

[@nena4215]

That is one very neat installation of the material on the walls and ceilings, I bet it makes for super sound proofing too, wow!

[@BusHuxley]

Thanks a lot. It is almost silent in there. Its amazing.

[@gprn3]

Nice isolation choice, the most valuable you have done for cold AND warm weather, enjoy this confort.

[@BusHuxley]

[@nageshwarjadhav]

Long time no see, good see the progress.

[@BusHuxley]

Thanks a lot! Glad you are here.

[@coolwheelz5190]

Things are moving fast! Great to see it. It will be great to see the sheet rock done too. Glad to see you are hiring a few of the big jobs out. Not sure if it's true, but I've heard it really isn't any more expensive to hire someone to do the insulation vs. doing it yourself. Will you hire someone to tape and mud too? Thanks for another great video!

[@BusHuxley]

Yes, paying for mud and tape. i am terrible and it and slow. ill be taking three weeks of work to offset it, so that will do.

[@dancudworth8963]

I've never seen that style of insulating before , looks like a good alternative to sips ? Is that true ? Or did you use sips to ?

[@BusHuxley]

Instead of sips. Rigid on the exterior for to stop the thermal bridging. All a lot more work than sips but I couldn’t afford them.

[@gcranch9913]

So how did she get the insulation behind the vapor barrier? Is this insulation more effective than the foam? Interesting video

[@freeform33]

I expect the vapour barrier will be on the back side of the Sheetrock on the outer wall surfaces

[@BusHuxley]

So, it my case, the vapor barrier is on the exterior of the sheathing, the plywood i used. its the rigid insulation outside. if that was the barrier, she would patch all those holes with tape.

[@charlie7057]

Another step closer

[@BusHuxley]

Getting there.

[@sandracunningham2689]

Wow

[@BusHuxley]

Well, thats nice

[@shephusted2714]

2 weeks is way too long think more like 3-4 days max

[@BusHuxley]

its a complicated one, lots of tear away bead.
