I had my home professionally insulated under a state funded program. The work included insulated the rim joists, thermo insulation of the exterior crawl space walls, netting off and blowing in insulation between each rafter, and adding blow in insulation to the floor including the top of the 2nd floor ceilings (in the attic). They sealed the area with foam at all openings and outlets, etc. I just checked my attic due to seeing a water spot on the ceiling and noticed that it was frosted over and the following day, when Wisconsin weather warmed to 20 degrees, it was wet. The very top of the blow in insulation is also wet. In one of the 2 upper bedrooms, the ceiling is fiberous tile that has a tongue and groove design. The insulation company feels that this may be a way that the moisture from the home is entering the top attic area. I don't really buy that. The upper attic area has no ventilation so I am not sure how the moisture in there will escape. I have attached a drawing of the home and photos of the area. Please let me know what the proper course of action should be to remedy this issue.

I don't know much about crawl spaces, at least to the aspect of, i don't know if what I want to do is a good idea or if it will end up becoming a problem some how. so here is what I wanna do, if you see anything I'm over looking or have a better idea on how to do it, etc, just let me know. thx! #1 The first thing a wanna do is dig it out a little, not real deep. Just enough to give a person more room, if work needs to be done. I'd say 6-12 inches deeper. #2 After it's dug out a bit, I wanna take some 2 by 4s and bang them in vertically around the side where concrete blocks are located. I was thinking I'd plaster the blocks as I banged the wood in place, to give some insulation between the wood and the concrete. Each 2 by 4 would be nailed to one another horizontally, with a good layer of adhesive caulk in between each one. I would also give each 2 by 4 a nice finish (front and back) to help water proof it. #3 With all the 2 by 4s in place I would bring in some bags of concrete and cover the entire ground with it. I would even bring it up on to the 2 by 4s, using it to seal in any remaining cracks. #4 Once the concrete is in place, I'd remove any insulation from the top (I'm redoing the house's entire insulation and plumbing) #5 After sanding and adding finish to any exposed wood, id clean up and then paint it white (everywhere) so light would become more reflective. (pest would be easier to locate as well.) #5 Once the pluming is replaced, I'd have the pipes insulated and then the top of the crawl space insulated with spray foam, as the rest of the house will be. #6 I may even fully block off any out side entry points. I would then have the only way to access the crawl space, from a newly installed (extremely insulated) hatch located inside the house. #7 this doesn't pertain to the crawl space, but I thought I'd note that I am also going to dig a 3' deep and 5' wide trench around the entire house and fill it with concrete. (I'm gonna try to have this sloop away from the house and toward the road.) --------------------------------------------------------------------- The idea behind all of this is to #1 give pest a more difficult entry. #2 make work easier and more comfortable to do with it being well isolated and lowered for more work room. #3 help prevent pipes form freezing. #4 to help prevent sound vibrations from escaping the house. #5 to prevent air from entering or escaping the house thru the floor.
