Spray Insulation vs. Roll Insulation Question
I have a friend who is renovating a house down to the studs. He is going to replace all the insualtion. The question, what is the best way to go as far as insulation? Roll insulation(Owens-Corning Stuff) or a spray type insulation? Is one better then the other, more effiecent? Cost effective? If someone can school me, I would appreciate it. THANKS!

There is also a spray fiberglass or cellulose that you can have installed. It sprays like you would use in an attic but there is some glue added to get it to stick to the walls (and itself) Not DIY but neither is foam. I would defensively get some other bids on other options. Biggest thing I don't like about foam is it burns very toxic.
