Ceiling Install

Paul Mallory Owner-Builder Support Project - Santa Fe, NM

I installed 1x6 tongue and groove ceilings. I used 16’ boards and built a few ladder type supports to hold one side as I nailed in the other. I did much of it myself and had to wrestle some of the boards in at times. I also was required by the city of Santa Fe to install an air barrier between the ceiling and the trusses for energy efficiency. I used house wrap for that.
