- Impact Concrete got back to me and quoted 24k (!) for the garage pad, which isn't happening. Rolling mix took my info, called me to ask a few questions then hasn't got back to me yet.
I did have a question about insulation, for the scissor trusses it seems the easiest way is to pay someone to spray foam the ceiling but from what I've read if I go that route I -don't- want any ventilation in that portion of the roof correct? If that's the case then would it just be spray foam the inside of the sheathing, then throw up drywall on the bottom of the trusses. Do I need some kind of attic hatch on that side still incase of leaks or what not?
Adding to that I guess, if there is no roof vents that means I use non-vented soffit as well correct?
Edit: Or I think I'm misunderstanding and should use vented soffit, some vent baffles along the length of the roof to the top and then still have vents at the top? I keep finding different info but not all of it applies to our cold climate
