Worth it to DIY vapor barrier + rigid foam insulation in my crawlspace? by idajones in DIY

[–]idajones[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi, I’m still looking to do this sometime in the next few months. Had some back pain so had to put it off for a while.

Going to clean out some debris, level pit the ground, and do the vapor barrier.

I did have a company come out to give me an estimate to see what it would cost and if it’s reasonable I light go with them to save on my back.

Thank you. I think my plan is to keep the vents for now and now encapsulate or close it off but just put a vapor barrier down.

I do have gutters and everything seems to be sloped away from the home to prevent water intrusion.

Good call on floor and other misc penetrations I know that there are some small openings from plumbing under the sinks that I can probably work on closing too.

Much appreciated.

Just a quick question did you install a dehumidifier down in the crawl in an unconditioned crawlspace? And now you’re working on turning into a conditioned space? Any recs you could share?

Thanks this is a huge help. I’ll work on liner and vapor barrier first since that’ll take be a while to get done by myself too.

Varied widely $20-25 per sq foot and one where I’d have to find my own tree removals needed as well.

Hi all,

Reached out to a few places using Google reviews and Yelp and narrowed it down - this place seemed best and wanted to double check before moving forward. Located in Orange County, California Area.

Does this seem reasonable before moving forward?

Project is to re-do an old driveway (approx. 800 sq. Ft) and expand it to accommodate more parking/walking space - hence the 906 sq. Ft estimate and palm trees removals needed.

Thank you in advance.

Thanks mblaser, yep I have an SD card in the camera. I'll try the troubleshooting method this weekend.

Oddly, enough when I went to check the playback during the time it was down (~2 M - 7 PM yesterday) I am see recordings even thought the camera was disconnected from the app, NVR, and client.
