New Garage Part 7 - Front Wall & Ceiling Insulation 

Enjoy watching your work. Something I wished I had done on my garage project was take pictures of the walls prior to adding insulation and drywall. Is handy when you need to understand where electric or plumbing runs are when doing future work.

Dude you are awesome nice job love it

Great music too!

Thanks for the good video 👍

In Norway we always use the paper of the roof insulation the other way, against the cold roof to prevent cold air coming down into the insulation.

Awesome video, your garage looks just like mine, cept no knee wall, I was thinking of insulating the roof instead of the ceiling, hmm looks like i have to rethink air flow though

Thank you for this video. I had to go through a lot of how to videos to find something on insulating a ceiling like this. I knew there had to be some breathing in an attic, but didn't know how to do this until I saw your video. Question though: I live in the country where there are plenty of bugs or critters. I'm pretty sure my soffits will make it hard for any large creature from getting in, but if I'm wrong, is there a way to prevent them from making nests in the insulation?

This was a great video, I was afraid of doing it myself and worried I would overpay someone else.

Nice video, could you please answer this, shouldnt the vapor barrier face the inner wall and the naked insulating mater covered with plastic on the side of the drywall because it is pointing to the exterior of the house, I would really appreciate your answer

When you have to cut around the baffle for the wires, should you insulate or something where the gaps are to prevent the air flow from coming out?

Where did the long lights go? Was curious how to deal with the lighting.

Good video. Would’ve done inside staples on the walls too since you mentioned you’re going to be getting drywall. Your area you live in doesn’t require fire resistance for garages? Usually go to is rock wool for garages or at least walls that are shared with living space.

Finally a good garage insulation install video. For some reason I couldn’t figure out the correct baffle install with the batt in the same way you did. Thank you!

I bought 2 differwnt stud finders. Lol I have a 3 car garage and hunging a 10ft strut rail to hung punching bags rings and a rope on my 8ft ceiling. I think I found joist. They running parallel to garage doors and are 24" apart, however after finding center of each joist they are 1" wide🙄 I tought they were at least 2" wide?? Iam using 3" 3/8 bolts.. My house was built in 2005

How’s the temp in the garage during the winter months? Notice any difference?

I’ve been looking to do this but all the rolls I see are about 19” wide and my garage has sections a couple inches wider

I have started doing something similar to this and have gone through 2 staplers. They keep getting jammed, which is so annoying. Thinking of getting a pneumatic stapler. Did you have any issues with the hammer stapler getting jammed?

Great video! Just wondering why you used a lower R value insulation for the front wall than you used for the ceiling. Thank you!

Curious, why this insulation over blown insulation after drywalling the ceiling?

I don't see any vents along my gutters for my garage. Do I still need to use baffle?

Enjoyed your video but I think you have made an error installing your vent baffles. The baffle should be installed so as to allow the ceiling insulation to cover the top plate of the wall. Yours is installed with the "flap" stapled to the inside of the top plate preventing insulation from covering said plate. See your drawing at 4:34 for an explanation. It may not be a big deal in North Carolina but here in Canada it would matter. Just sayin for those that may take on this job themselves. Nice garage.

Do you need to add the rafter vents?

What side does the paper face in Dallas climate

This is similar to how my garage is currently laid out with half of it insulted and the other half not. Just curious why you didn't insulate every wall? I was about to just start this today actually, but I was only planning on doing one wall at a time and didn't think it was worth it unless I did everything. Plus I haven't ran electrical yet. Plan was to just insulate the walls this year then drywall next year or osb, but I'm not sure if that makes sense. Also, just curious where you are located, or at least if you get sub zero temperatures? I'm in Minnesota USA and keep hearing all different ways to insulate.

How much did the materials cost you? I have a similar size garage that I need to do this too

How far up do baffles go

I figured insulation went in the roof not the ceiling? any difference?

Why no attic access panel?

those baffles are nice, but should have been foil material faced

Where did you get the insulation materials?

Why did you waist money on thin Styrofoam to apply it in roof too wall edge ? I did install R-13 into roof to the wall and I'll do drop celing bit for car lift my garage, but last winter in my garage it was 64° with diesel heater I don't understand your guys garage insulation at all

What's the likelihood of this becoming a home for infestation?

Hi Are you guys in Ottawa

All that hard work did you at least eat lol

Lost a lot of space by insulating the ceiling and rather than the roof. I am insulating the roof as I use the ceiling for storing some of my trim and smaller pieces of wood.

You could have cut this clip in a 3rd

Pro tip. You don’t need to show all 25 of the vents being installed.
