The Must Have Guide For Any Remodel...
A Guide To Moisture Management For Residential Remodels
Working with existing buildings is tricky. Prevent common design and construction errors that result in mold, rot, and water damage that can end up costing you tens of thousands of dollars to repair (if not hundreds of thousands). There are two ways to do something - the right way and "again". This guide will provide the strategies necessary to address moisture issues and prevent future moisture problems the correct way the FIRST time, with options for a wide range of residential structures and existing building conditions, using real-world building science principles and construction details.
