Foundation insulation & exterior finish
Hi All, I did a quick search on this but couldn’t find good info. I just did some minor drainange and foundation work. Now I want to insulate the crawl space AND select a material to cover the outside.
I will need a General Contractor for this minor job, but need some ideas on what to ask him/her to do: EPS on the outside or inside. If outside what recommendations for exterior finish, etc? I had leakage and settling due to grade and ext finish materials allowing water to seep back into the foundation. What is a good product to attach to the EPS, or should I just stick with interior foam and use a stucco or other venier (sp?) product.
Thanks in advance, the replies on two previous postings have been a great help when discussing issues with local contractors.

My choice would be to go with 2" blue foam and then Grailcoat for the exterior finish.
