Cold Weather Exterior Trim Installation
skeet
| Posted in Construction Techniques on
It looks like I’m not going to beat the onset of winter and I still have to install the t&G pine ceilling on my porch of the house I’m building. Is there any issue with this? When I install the material should it be the same tempurature as outside or should I install it warm. Because the cielling of the poarch is also the overhaning floor of the second floor bedroom I want to get the ceiling up to help hold up and seal in the insulation in the bedroom foor. Tempuratures here in Ottawa are averaging around minus 10C (25F) and only going to keep getting colder. Any suggestions?

Install plywood first on the bottom of the overhang and then put the T&G. Is it primed pine because I'm doing a whole house almost 400' with this but it's for a soffit and it's primed.
Whenever we have a cantilever like you have and it's part of a room above we always sheath the bottom first and then put the T&G.
