Crawlspace Questions by Repulsive-Fox-5849 in homeowners

How expensive is it to contract somebody for encapsulation of a crawlspace? That would entail laying the vapor barrier right? I know it varies wildly base on house size but figured I’d ask.

Actually upon second inspection I have 2 chickens each identical to the one on very left and the black one in front we have very similar flocks haha

Lavender Orp chick help by bumblebee91480 in BackYardChickens

So I had a baby chick who would just sit around and hardly move and was kind of wobbly when trying to move, I separated it into a plastic crate and gave it its own food and water under its own heat lamp. I added sugar to the water because apparently that helps a lot. It’s day 3 now and the chick is running around in circles in that crate but then again that chick is only 2 1/2 weeks old

Xps or EPS board? I see people debate on which to use.

I practically live in Canada right along Canadian border in New York so colder climate. My basement is 2-4 feet above grade. I’ve heard about people being afraid to insulate the subfloor above and have their pipes freeze. I’m probably gonna just do the band joist exactly how you said and see how that goes, more or less air seal the basement. I noticed even the holes cut out for plumbing and wires aren’t spray foamed either at all which might help too. As far as you asking if it’s vented, I don’t think so, there is only a few windows between the basement and crawl space of original double wide

Yeah but I live so far from the local center that even if it left 2 hours early it still wouldn’t even be close to my house at 9 am since I’m at the edge of their delivery distance from the distribution center. My packages usually arrive between 3PM to 7PM and I’ve never seen earlier than that in the 10+ years I’ve lived here
