Could this be causing the moisture (bad windows)?. This one's easy. When they replaced your windows, they didn't use spray foam in the gaps between the window and the rough frame. (those gaps where shims are inserted) Removing the trim around the window and spraying the foam in those gaps will take care of that condensation. Of course put the trim back. Chances are that the bottom of your attic insulation is soaked and you'll need to remove and replace it. Dry wall ceiling probably is too. I've never heard of too much ridge ventilation. The whole point of soffit and ridge ventilation is to suck air from the soffit up to the ridge vent to keep air moving so moisture won't build up. I would recommend a reliable insulation contractor to look into the attic crawl space. |
