This is such a great site. I can't thank everyone enough for your counsel on that "drafty" garage room wall. I'm attaching the before and after pictures (I'm not done yet, expect to finish tomorrow). The fix was so simple, thanks to you: foam board and that miracle product, Liquid Nails. May not be the prettiest, but recall this is a storage room above the garage.
As luck would have it, I needed a cortisone injection in my hip yesterday; my orthopedist told me no running for a couple of days. So at least I wasn't resenting this DIY project since it wasn't keeping me from running, anyway.
I didn't track the time, but I think start to finish for this first round was under 2 hours, including a trip back to Lowes to buy more Liquid Nails. And my prime gauge for successful DIY project: I never uttered the F word.
Bonus: about $50 spent so far, vs the $400 or so the handyman had quoted me.
Thanks again!
