The soile around here is pretty sandy. But not as bad as it looks, being so dry it's almost like powder!!
Joe, I'm having guys blow insulation into attic space when weather starts to get a little cooler. I don't ever plan on going up in attic, no storage, I did leave an access in case of any maintenance issues. As far as walls I am planning on just an r19 Fiberglas in walls. R19 is typical for walls around here. Local building supply store prices on 24" wide krafted rolls puts me at about 1/3 of the cost f I were to have it sprayed. I know the spray is more effective when done correct with sealing, and vapor barrier. At least the closed cell foam.
I'm sure before too long I'll have a lot of space occupied!!! Been slacking on moving the heavy pieces of equipment to shop and hanging the insulation. Been pretty warm and I absolute hate working with fiberglass insulation!!! Would sell my first born instead of messing with that stuff!! ( no I don't have any children) (they were sold off long ago)
but I now have to get it done as everything from old garage has to be moved s I can plant a real estate sign in yard.
This is the digging to find the blue foam I had in concrete for putting gas line into garage.
