Wow, I will give you an A+ for that insulation job. Where did you find scrap foam insulation board. I should look for some since it all gets buried anyway.
Did you pour those voids with concrete? How neccesary do you think it is to have a wall to keep burrowing critters out from under the floor. I would think the odds of it being a problem would be small but a real pain if it happened to cause a leak in the floor.
Thanks for the passing grade.
There's a local guy, who owns a storage facility/auction house, and he had thousands of these blocks. Labor intensive, but the price offset that. (I "disposed" of quite a few that I had left over.)
The trench got filled with concrete. The spacer blocks don't touch the bottom, so there is concrete under them.
I was worried about burrowing critters also, and coated the outside of the foam with a brush-on material from Menards. It gets hard like mortar. I didn't get any pictures of that. |
