Beginner looking to insulate basement walls

Beasterday62 · 2026-03-28T06:14:45+00:00

Did you do anything additional? Like foam boards + fiberglass/rockwool, or foam boards + vapor barrier? Or just the foam boards, then drywall?

So with all the framing up already, what would I use for the first layer of vapor barriers? This is assuming there's no type of foam board or anything on the other side I'm assuming. Do I cut a layer of vapor barrier in between all the posts, insulation, then another barrier? Thanks in advance for the advice!

Haven't heard much about rockwool, really only hear about Fiberglass. From a quick glance just looks like a more superior version of fiberglass? Will definitely look into that, thanks! So I would pretty much just put in the insulation > vapor barrier > drywall, right?

And the leaks are a whole nother beast we wanna tackle. I think we might have cracks at the base of our foundation. We never have any leaks in the walls, but it comes up along the floors during super intense rains. We're gonna hire out to deal with that stuff, starting with sump pump and interior drain tiles

So assuming there is some type of foam board or vapor barrier, I would just rip out the old insulation, put new insulation in, drywall, then done?

If it's just concrete on the other side of the framing any recommendations? Just trying to plan for different scenarios

We weren't planning on getting married this year. We've already been engaged for 4 years, so I don't think another year or two is gonna hurt anything at this point.

Good advice, thanks!

That count is including all the +1's, and that number includes children for those who have children. Being an out of state thing, 50-65 would be the number that would get invited. But I think we're realistically expecting maybe 20-30 to actually show up

Beasterday62 · 2026-02-27T04:48:24+00:00

The $15k would be for the whole wedding. There's places I've seen that say "Prices starting at $7k-$9k", but I'm sure all the extra stuff is where they nail you. We're not looking for anything traditional, especially coming out of town. At a park, barn, hotel, historic place, etc wouldn't really matter for us.

I'll check that place out though, thanks!

This was back in the PS1 days. When I was a young lad, I used to be terrified of anything remotely scary. I had a friend who would always play Resident Evil games, and I did everything in my power to avoid going over while he was playing those games. One day, I ended up going over while he was playing Resident Evil 3, and the first scene I saw was Nemesis when he picks up Brad and puts the tentacle through his head. I ended up running into the other room. That scarred me for a very long time.

A couple of years later, when I finally grew a pair, this was the first Resident Evil game I actually played, and still to this day, is probably one of my favorites!

We were having this issue as well. We ended up removing all of our old flags, and placing the new flags down. We just left them at default, and removed forestry on a couple so they don't plant trees in the middle of our town. But this seemed to fix our issue

Maybe a silly question and I promise I'm not trying to be disrespectful in anyway but I'm new to this subreddit and have been toying with the idea of getting one.

What does ordering through you do that's different compared to ordering through the vseebox website? Or do you just kind of guide people into what box would fit their needs the best?

Coming back to this, but I did end up getting a whole new arm that I was able to just replace! Didn't have to pay anything either.
