WC Iowa | We had a new pole building/shop building this summer by what I'll call a tier 2 midwest regional building company. This project has been an absolute disaster from day one of the builds. Yes plural.
Current problem we have found is they failed to insulate between the inner and outer headers at the top of the walls. Air is coming directly in the soffits and down between the spray foamed walls and the inner steel liner.
One corner of the building was left unlined as we are building an office ourselves. This is how we noticed the problem as there is a huge amount of air coming in the gap.
How do we even attempt to correct this problem? Removing inner liner would take a ton of work as electrical/air lines ECT are already done. Building company wants to try to come in through soffits with roll insulation and stuff it in between the trusses which are on 4ft centers.
Attached is a picture looking up between inner steel liner and foam. The daylight is coming through the soffit.
Thanks for any suggestions.
