Well, Mrs. Zoom just asked/requested (told...) me to finish 2 more rooms in the house.
The garage needs the ceiling drywalled. The paper on the insulation was stapled to the ends of the 2x4's so I can't use glue without a re-do. Think it'll be OK with just drywall screws or should I change the insulation?
I have another room under the garage which is the other one I need to finish.
The construction method will be such that I cannot build a standard framed wall (without changing a lot of plumbing and electric) and will need to anchor the studs directly to the block wall using Tapcons. This method will work better if I lay the 2x4's flat to the wall (opposite to the way you would normally frame it).
Due to the reduced space, I was going to use the 1" foil faced foam insulation board (polyisocyanurate). Should I put the insulation on the block wall then put the studs over it or should I cut and fit between the 2x4's? The former is easier but I'm thinking the latter would make it more secure. Thoughts?
